Filet Mignon at a Pizzeria: Seven Dishes, $15 to $47
Ordering filet mignon at a pizzeria sounds like a mistake until you look at how much of it is on the menu. Pie-fection Pizza carries seven separate dishes built on it, running from a $15 plate on the kids menu to a $47 chef’s special — a ladder that wide is not a token gesture toward a steak eater in the group. It is a second kitchen operating alongside the pizza oven. The full menu puts both in the same place.
The Filet Mignon Ladder, From $15 to $47
Seven dishes, and the range is the point:
Filet Mignon au Poivre — $47. The top of the chef’s specials list, and the most expensive plate the restaurant serves.
Filet Mignon — $41. The straightforward version, same section.
Risotto Al Funghi with Filet — $42. Mushroom risotto with filet worked in.
Filet Parmigiana — $32. On the pasta side rather than the specials.
Fettuccine with Filet Mignon Bites — $23. The cut broken into bites over pasta, at roughly half the price of the whole plate.
Filet Mignon Bites with Gorgonzola — $21. An appetizer, and the cheapest way to taste the cut.
Filet Mignon with Rice and Fries — $15. On the kids menu, which tells you something about who the restaurant expects at the table.
That last one is worth pausing on. A kids menu carrying filet mignon at $15, next to cheese pizza at $10 and chicken tenders at $11, is not a normal pizzeria decision.
What the Rest of the Kitchen Looks Like
The filet does not sit alone. The chef’s specials section reads like a full restaurant menu: Gorgonzola Risotto with NY Strip ($44), Malbec Risotto with Lamb Chops ($42), Grana Padano Risotto ($42), Caprese and Lemon Risotto ($38 each), Breaded Salmon ($38), Salmon with Vegetables ($32) and Shrimp Risotto ($28).
The one to know about is Crema Di Padano at $38 — fettuccine finished tableside inside a wheel of Grana Padano cheese. It is a service, not just a dish, and it is the clearest signal of what this kitchen is trying to be.
The Brazilian side of the steak menu runs in parallel. Sliced picanha with fried yuca is $23, or $34 with raclette, and Catupiry can be added for $12. Churrasco steak also shows up folded into a calzone at $34, and the restaurant’s namesake Pie-fection pie puts grilled steak with vinaigrette and Catupiry at Sm $25. Start with Filet Mignon Bites with Gorgonzola at $21 and the appetizer list gets more Brazilian from there — coxinha at $12, a picanha skewer at $11, escondidinho de carne seca at $18.
Where to Order Filet Mignon, and When
Three restaurants, each with its own hours and phone line. Because these are plated dishes rather than pizzas, a reservation is the sensible move.
Orlando (Metrowest) — 3120 S Kirkman Rd, Orlando, FL 32811, (407) 523-2200. Closed Mondays; Tue–Thu 5:00 PM–11:00 PM, Fri–Sat 4:00 PM–12:00 AM, Sun 5:00 PM–11:00 PM. Book an Orlando reservation on OpenTable, or use online ordering for Metrowest.
Kissimmee — 720 Centerview Blvd, Kissimmee, FL 34741, (407) 603-0123. Mon–Thu 4:00 PM–11:00 PM, Fri–Sat 4:00 PM–12:00 AM, Sun 5:00 PM–11:00 PM. Hold a table with a Kissimmee reservation on OpenTable, or use online ordering for Kissimmee.
Windermere — 13211 Reams Rd Suite 108, Windermere, FL 34786, (407) 720-4001. The only one open midday: Mon–Thu 5:00 PM–11:00 PM, Fri–Sat 12:00 PM–12:00 AM, Sun 12:00 PM–11:00 PM — so it is the one location where filet is a lunch option. Use the Windermere reservation on OpenTable or online ordering for Windermere. Written questions go to info@piefectionpizza.com.
Planning the Filet Mignon Night
Two things to know before you book. All You Can Eat is a different evening entirely — 23 pizza flavors, dine-in, Metrowest only, Tuesday through Thursday from 5:00 PM to 11:00 PM, from $25 per adult with a two-person minimum or $28.99 solo. Good value, wrong night for a steak. And Pizza Party catering is pizza-only by design: a mobile oven at your address, $1,050 for up to 30 guests over three hours.
For the steak itself, check the current specials before ordering online — pie10 takes 10% off orders over $50, which a single au Poivre plate already clears on its own. Pie-fection has been building this menu in Central Florida since 2011, when José Emanuel, known as Maninho, opened the first restaurant with his family in Orlando. The pizza is what people come for. The filet mignon is what makes them stop calling it a pizza place.
