Carne en Vara at Mordisco Steakhouse in Orlando

Mordisco Steakhouse is a Doral import centered on oak-fired cooking with Venezuelan twists. Its Orlando restaurant describes the broader concept as Venezuelan and Caribbean fusion.

What carne en vara means

Carne en vara is a cooking style in which meat is slow-roasted over open wood embers. At Mordisco, the term describes the preparation rather than a single cut, so ask which carne en vara options are currently available when ordering.

Choosing between meat and fish

For the clearest introduction to the restaurant’s signature style, choose one of the available carne en vara meats. This puts the slow-roasting method at the center of the meal.

The asador is not limited to meat. Mordisco also serves wood-fired branzino, giving diners a fish option that still showcases the restaurant’s live-fire cooking.

Mordisco Steakhouse is at 11030 International Drive in Orlando.
