On our visit to Orlando, my family of 6 decided to visit Cattlemans. The Exterior of the building and the "Immediate Seating" flashing neon sign was enticing. Considering all other places had at least an hour wait. When we walked in, we were completely ignored by a staff of 3 congregating by the hostess station. Not even a simple hello or welcome. The stench was completely unappetizing. After standing there with no apparent reason for being greeted or seated we walked out! Thank Goodness we did, considering the previous reviews here on this website. At least we did not waste $35.00 per person to eat and not be satisfied!

Wow, you would never believe this place looked like this from the outside. It has such an authentic western atmosphere and the steaks are great. The service was also top notch.

If you like steak that's as tough as an old shoe, rude and surley staff and being over charged for your meal then eat here. In all my time travelling, including a short period in Iraq in 2003, this has got to be the worst food I have ever eaten! Never EVER eat there.

Having spending the day in Universal with the missus we decided to check out Cattlemans Steakhouse. After being seated the fiasco began. To begin with we were made to wait at least ten minutes before someone bothered to take our drinks order. After receiving drinks our waitress decided to make an appearance and took our order. We both ordered the striplion steak, after which the waitress rattled off a list of sides (neglecting to mention that all these were extra). The steak was pricey enough to begin with, coming with a choce of fries, baked potatoe or rice, but everything else was extra, I mean who the hell serves steak without veg or salad. Even the pepper sauce was $3.95 extra. We decided to get a side of sauteed onions which cost $3.95 also, at this stage I at last came to the realisation that these people were most definately taking the p#ss. After receiving the steaks, which were ok at best, we discovered that our fries had been microwaved and must have been cooked at least an hour ago, I would have got more enjoyment from chewing on one of their napkins but decided not to incase I got charged extra for it. When the entire ordeal was over the waitress handed us our check after about 5 minutes of trying to push deserts on us. To our suprise we seen that an 18% gratuity had been added to the bottom of the check. Considering there was only two of us I found this pretty damn cheeky of them considering the rubbish service and substandard meal. In all we paid $75 for 2 sodas, 2 steaks and 1 side of onions (and we didn't even get salad or sauce with that)

I appologise for the long winded review, but if it saves even one person from the ordeal we went through then it will be worth it.
