Named for its own address in the Reunion Grande, 7593 Chophouse is the resort's classic steakhouse — prime cuts, fresh seafood and the serious wine list inside the gates.

The name is the address. 7593 Chophouse takes its title from 7593 Gathering Drive, the address of the Reunion Grande, and it is the Grande’s ground-level answer to the rooftop show upstairs at Eleven: a classic steakhouse, done with what the resort calls modern culinary flair, serving prime cuts and fine wines inside Reunion Resort & Golf Club in Kissimmee.

If Eleven is the celebration, 7593 Chophouse is the feast. The resort’s description is straightforward steakhouse language — prime cuts, fresh seafood delivered to the kitchen, an extensive wine list and a signature cocktail menu built to pair with both. In a resort where most dining is deliberately casual — poolside grills, clubhouse taverns, a sushi bar in the lobby — the Chophouse is the one room that asks you to sit down, slow down and order like you mean it.

Where it sits in the resort

The Chophouse operates out of the Grande, Reunion’s 11-story central tower, which makes it the natural anchor for anyone staying in the tower itself or in the villas across Reunion’s six villa communities. Reunion sprawls across 2,300 gated acres, so “the restaurant in the main building” is a genuinely useful thing: the resort’s complimentary shuttle circulates between accommodations, golf courses and dining, and the Grande is the stop everything orbits.

That centrality also makes the Chophouse the default special-occasion table for the whole community — golf groups finishing a three-course swing through Palmer, Watson and Nicklaus, multigenerational families in the big vacation homes celebrating the one night nobody cooks, couples in the Grande marking the trip’s midpoint. The room has to serve all of them, and the classic-steakhouse format is exactly the format that can.

How to order the evening

Build the meal the way the menu is built: seafood to start, a prime cut at the center, and the wine list treated as part of the entertainment rather than an upsell. The resort emphasizes that enhancements and accompaniments lean on fresh vegetables and bold spices, which is a useful steer — this is a kitchen that wants its steaks dressed, not just salted. Save the restraint for lunch at Traditions the next day.

Then make the comparison the Grande invites. Eleven, upstairs, is small plates, cocktails and the panorama; the Chophouse is the full steakhouse ritual. Many Reunion regulars do both across a stay — rooftop first for the sunset, Chophouse on the following night for the serious dinner — and our profile of Eleven, Reunion’s rooftop explains why it ranked No. 2 among Orlando rooftop bars in our rankings.

The access reality

As with everything at Reunion, plan around the gates. The resort’s restaurants serve a community of resort guests, members and vacation-home renters, and amenity access depends on how a stay was booked — resort and Preferred Rental Program bookings carry it; third-party rentals vary. Non-guests should contact the resort directly before counting on a table. That is not a warning so much as the nature of Reunion: it is a private-feeling resort that happens to contain a small town’s worth of amenities, and the Chophouse is its dining room.

Practical rhythm: the Chophouse is a dinner occasion, and steakhouse demand concentrates on weekend evenings and during golf-group season. Book ahead through the resort, use the shuttle, and give the evening room to breathe — this is not a kitchen built for turning tables.
