Capa Steakhouse, the outstanding, One-Star Michelin rooftop steakhouse at Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Walt Disney World Resort, is showing off enhancements to its kitchen and overall dining experience. Capa, which recently received Spanish certification from the Embassy of Spain, and the resort each are prominently featured in the Netfilx hit show Somebody Feed Phil, with Series Seven released March 1 featuring notable dining spots around greater Orlando.
Capa, known for its prime meats cooked over a wood-burning grill, fresh seafood and tasty Spanish tapas, might be as equally known for its striking ambiance and stylish decor. A favorite dining destination for resort guests and locals, Capa’s 17th floor perch has stunning views overlooking lakes, woodlands, and the nightly Walt Disney World fireworks from its two terraces.
Capa’s updated look includes delicate Spanish fans swaying overhead – each made of a reflective custom-painted laser-cut metal; ,all new seating areas, including banquettes in the main restaurant; red bar stools; and bold artwork.
Keeping in line with Capa’s Spanish-influenced cuisine, the design of the space was inspired by the movement and attire of Spanish performers such as matadors and flamenco dancers.
Most notably for the culinary team, the kitchen underwent an expansion, giving the chefs more room to cook, curate and assemble the various dishes served nightly. With the wood-burning grill in the center of the kitchen, the surrounding white marble built-in with open shelving houses Capas’s plateware and custom refrigeration units showcase Capa’s premium cuts of meat.
“Capa’s open kitchen design is not only visually stunning, but it’s also now optimal for our team of cooks,” notes Fabrizio Schenardi, Executive Chef of Four Seasons Resort Orlando, overseeing Capa and the Resort’s five other restaurants, in-room dining, and banquet culinary operations.
“I am immensely proud of Capa for receiving official certification as a Restaurant from Spain,” says Malyna Si, Capa Chef. “This is not a small task as the criteria for certification is lengthy. To me, this accreditation reflects the hard work the team puts in not only to create the most delicious, beautifully presented dishes, but also the work behind the scenes in sourcing authentic food items to ensure the Capa Steakhouse experience as a Spanish-influenced restaurant is truly the best it can be.”
The certificate is on display upon arrival to Capa, showcased in the entryway alongside the restaurant’s Michelin star plaques for 2023 and 2022.
