Re: disney restaurants

jiko in the animal kingdom lodge is always our favorite stop! amazing food, amazing everything! way way better than boma...boma is like a buffet thing and totally not good - jmo!

coral reef in epcot is cool too!

rose and crown in epcot was pretty cool too...english pub-type place.

word of advice: avoid any disney italian food, because i think it s u x!

and a cool place for a burger (like for lunch or whatever) we go to the sci-fi drive in diner in the hollywood studios is cool.

hth! enjoy!

Rose and Crown was yummy and a lot of fun. We made a reservation for a table by the water around the time of the Illuminations show.

Re: disney restaurants

I just got back from Disney on Friday!! In my opinion, Fultons Crab House is the best place in Disney. It's in the Downtown Disney area. If you like fish, its really amazing. The restaurant is a docked boat too so has great views.

Re: disney restaurants

Victoria and Albert's the 5-star restaurant, nice. Honestly, the dinner-shows are fun . . . the Polynesian Revue (luau) and the Hoop-de-Doo (silly, but fun, food in a bucket, but just home-cookin').

Don't eat Italian, ever since Alfredo's closed, there's no good Italian for about 200 miles.

The restaurant in China in Epcot was once fantastic, I have no idea if it still is.

The restaurant in Mexico has very nice ambience, it's like being outside in Mexico, but you're not!

Other than that, the restaurant by The Land gets great reviews, but I've never been.

Hope that helps! We're about to book our dinners, and the shows we want to attend. We got the meal plan, but the shows aren't included . . . .

Re: disney restaurants

Def do the sci-fi drive in and make a reservation for a car! We went for dinner and it was soooo nice. It was dark outside and they have movies like the blob playing and it really makes you feel like you are in the 1950s! We got burgers and milkshakes and it was probably the most fun we had eating out! This place is a must do!

Re: disney restaurants

If you want great italian food D'Antonios in Celebration is FABULOUS!!!!

and the dinner in Cinderellas Castle is pretty good, you get to take pics with cinderella, and you get a wand....and the fairy god mother comes out and does a short show....ask for a table near the window.....food was good for a 'touristy' restaurant

Re: disney restaurants

Love the mexican restaurant inside the pyramid in Epcot

Love the Candian steak place in Epcot

Love Victoria & Alberts in the Grand Floridian

Love Sci Fi Diner in Hollywood Studios

Love Fulton's Crab House in Downtown Disney

Love Ohana in the Polynesian (it's my favorite breakfast place)

I don't think I've ever had a bad meal in Disney!

ETA: Forgot about the California Grill in Contemporary (how could I? - it's my absolute favorite restaurant)

Also very good if you want a buffett - Chef Mickey's in the Contemporary.

i ate there on new years this year, i thought it was good, i like d'antonios in celebration better.....it certainly wasnt OMG the best italian food ever, but it was not bad at all and i'm a picky italian food snob

Re: disney restaurants

so what is th ebest restaurant to eat at in epcot?

Re: disney restaurants

I liked the new Italian place in Epcot....and I was a HUGE fan of Alfredo's (even had to eat in the original in Rome when I was there). The new one is just as good - just a different menu.

It's hard to pick the 'best' restaurant in Epcot - they are all so good. It really depends on what type of food you're looking for. I truly like them all (except for Norway and Morocco) but that's just my taste buds. I have never eaten a bad meal there. If you want something a little bit on the romantic side, eat in France or at the Living Seas restaurant (ask for a seat up front by the glass - but even if you don't get it, you'll still have an amazing view of all the fish).

Re: disney restaurants

Re: disney restaurants

California Grill at the Contemporary - find out what time the Magic Kingdom Fire Works are and try to book it so you are sitting at your table for them.

Spoodles (Boardwalk)
I hear Flying Fish is good too, but I have never been there.

Epcot:
Les Chefs de France
Beirgarten (buffet but great food with entertainment)
Coral Reef

For Fun:
Sci-Fi Dine In
50s Prime Time Cafe

Breakfast with the Characters:
Chef Mickeys (Contemporary) - Done it at many places, by far the best.

If you are looking for super fancy Victora and Alberts is UNBELIEVABLE but its EXPENSIVE.

Downtown Disney has a ton of great places but they are mostly places that are not just located in Disney - Wolfgang Pucks, Fulton's Crab House, Bongos Cuban Cafe.

I also recommend booking a fun dinner show. My favorite is the Hoop Dee Doo Review. Its fun singing and dancing with a great fried chicken dinner. If you are obvious honeymooners there is a good chance you will end up being part of the show. Its at Fort Wilderness.

Think I go to Disney a bit?

I haven't been there yet, but I heard it was taken over by a Long Islander, my father is friends with his friend or something... so go there... support our fellow Long Islander.
