About Capa Steakhouse

Capa is a striking, sophisticated restaurant encompassing the entire 17th floor rooftop of Four Seasons Resort Orlando. A highlight is the expansive terrace, with incredible views of the Disney area as well as the nightly Magic Kingdom Park fireworks.   Drawing inspiration from the Basque culture of Spain, the restaurant décor pays homage to an important part of Spain’s history, with a vibrant ceiling art installation of Spanish fans gently swaying overhead.  Design highlights include a vibrant bar that is featured front-and-centre, surrounded by a mural of antique Spanish coins in the shape of a matador and bull. Capa has been rated one Michelin star since 2022, when Michelin Guide published the inaugural Michelin Guide Miami, Orlando and Tampa. Menu highlights include prime meats, fresh seafood, wagyu, and an array of Spanish tapas.  In addition to Si, Capa is overseen by Executive Chef Fabrizio Schenardi, with exquisite desserts by Executive Pastry Chef Rabii Saber, a twice-nominated James Beard Award semifinalist for Outstanding Pastry Chef.
