My fiancé really wanted STK. we ate there in the past (about 2 years ago) for magical dining month. At that time the menu was labeled gluten free so on Saturday October 3, 2020 we thought we would give it a go.

We went for their weekend brunch menu. I was told there was no gluten free menu but that the server would be able to help. I looked at the menu and asked about the steak and egg meal.

This item on the menu is listed as "Truffle Steak and Egg". it is an 8oz wagyu flat iron steak with truffle buttered brioche fried egg, crispy potatoes, and shaved truffle. The server informed me that they do not have a dedicated fryer but showed me i could have a different side. I chose the sweet corn pudding after seeing positive reviews on here. I also informed the server that obviously i would not want the brioche since they do not offer a gluten free bread substitute.

My fiancé ordered the same thing (but normal/as is). Both our meals were brought out at the same time by someone who was not our server (this seems to be common a lot of places). Unlike Disney owned places there was no allergy noted on the plate (no little stick). As he put my plate down there was a large piece of bread on the plate. I immediately turned it away and explained that i would not be able to have that and that it was an allergy. They took the plate back and in less than 5 minutes returned with the plate missing the break and just with a fried egg. Now i know that it doesn't take that short of time to re-fire a meal. I asked them if they had re-fired it and the server informed me that no they just removed the bread (maybe switched plates? I am not sure if he said he did or didn't).

I was unimpressed with this level of service. The manager did end up bring my re-fire (at which point my fiancé had finished eating). The manager and server apologized but this could have been a serious issue.

STK definitely does not have the safety protocols that I expect from a restaurant on Disney property. The sweet corn pudding was really good and the steak was ok, however we will not be eating there again. I just wanted to let everyone know my experience.
