    Anywhere else like Manny's Chophouse and Logans ro

    Hi Guy's
    Overall for food and atmosphere, we really enjoyed both Manny's Chophouse and Logans Roadhouse.
    Are there other places similar we could try.
    David.

    Never been to either I'm afraid, but I believe Manny's Chophouse is a steak place, and in my opinion, Key W Kools is the place to go for that.

    It looks like rubbish on the outside, but inside it's great and we always have two visits there when we're in Orlando. For some reason, although it's not much of a kids place, it's my children's favourite. They serve a mean dirty martini, which I have found always eases the pain of the bill.

    No, think Manny's especially is a one off, but if you enjoy a steak we always enjoy the Outback

    We always enjoy a trip to Cherry Pocket in Lake Wales on Lake Pierce, Steak and Seafood Shak is how they advertise themselves.
    Lovely food and I know it is a drive but worth it. Check out their website. www.cherrypocket.com

    We visited Cherry Pocket when we were out in Florida last month.
    Bit tricky to find but most definitely worth it.
    Great company on the night too!![msnsmile2][msnsmile2]

    KWK was the first place we ate at on our first visit. We had a terrible time it was expensive, server tried to upsell everthing. Food was just ok. We gave it another 2 tries over the years and my opinion has not changed. Although others have thought it was great.

    I do enjoy a nice steak and to be honest i have found Manny's to so far serve the best steak, bread rolls and salad if you like desert then you will struggle to find room !! although for a chain restraunt i have had a nice one in Carabas. I did like the steaks in Outback but since Manny's i have not been back to Outback specificaly for a steak. Bahama Breeze has also served up a nice steak and mash.

    Another vote for Cherry Pocket, the menu was extensive and the food great. It was dark when we went there but we will go again once the evenings are lighter as I think the view is stunning, being right on the lake.

    One tip is to get directions from google rather than use a Sat Nav, which directs you to a dead end road and forces you to turn around and find another way through [msnwink]

    Go with friends and have a fab time, we did [msnsmile2]

    We think Manny's is great, different from the chain restaurants. It is always packed so that speaks for itself. Have not tried the steaks there (though they look wonderful) as I have never tasted ribs like Manny's and always go for that. The salad is fantastic too. Can't wait until we go back.
