Our final recommendation is possibly our favorite artsy place in Florida: Jack’s Place, right here in Rosen Plaza.
When you dine at our award-winning steakhouse, you get to share your table with famous actors, athletes, astronauts, and world leaders. Harris Rosen’s father, Jack Rosen, drew these famous faces when he worked at the Waldorf Astoria in New York City.
The caricatures are now on display at Jack’s Place.
Today, Harris Rosen and Rosen Hotels & Resorts continue to support the arts in and around Orlando. Our efforts have included:
