If your idea of a splurge is a dry martini, a thick, grilled steak, professional service and Frank Sinatra tunes, head to this Italian eatery. Just a stone's throw from busy International Drive, the restaurant is reminiscent of the classic clubs of Chicago and New York in the 1950s. Timpano features big steaks and chops matched by full-bodied red wines in a sophisticated setting: velvet draperies, big booths, white tablecloths and chandeliers. Munch on a basket of the thick, homemade focaccia while you check out the specialties that include bone-in filet mignon, pork chops and live Maine lobster. In addition to steaks and chops, you'll find classic Italian dishes like linguine with clams, beef carpaccio, baked ziti and shrimp scampi. We highly recommend the black skillet-roasted mussels for a starter, plenty for two to share. And if you dare, top off the meal with decadent tiramisu. Tuesdays through Saturdays, the Starlight Lounge features the sounds of a baby grand piano and live swing, jazz and Rat Pack classics.
