Tell me about your US/IOA/CityWalk dining experiences! Where did you enjoy? Where sucks?
Am I right in thinking that the Cheesecake Factory is a distant memory?:sad1:

Its been awhile since I had gone to US/IOA but DH and I did get to eat at Margaritaville and Latin Quarters. I am so not an adventurious eater and I LOVED the Latin Quarter. We had originally planned to eat at Emriels and when I called someone told me no need for reservations but that was so not the case so we ended up at LQ. The food was great thanks to that place DH gets a lot more spanish food cooked at home and I love me some black beans. Margaritaville was totally not memorable. If it wasn't for the magnet I am not sure I would even remember that we ate there. Not bad but I guess nothing special. I do remember they had yummy drinks but I couldn't tell you what I ate.
Sorry not much help but thats what I remember.

Am I right in thinking that the Cheesecake Factory is a distant memory? There is a Cheesecake Factory at the Studios and it's excellent.
IOA: The Enchanted Oak and Thunder Falls Terrace are my favs.
Studios: Louie's and Finnegan's are my favs there.
CityWalk: Margaritaville (Cheeseburger in paradise was excellent)
Like Metro IOA Thunder Falls and Wippys has good burgers
Citywalk M'ville Valcano Nachos are great and Nascar Grille the brickyard burgers are great and DS's love the lucky dog

What's the deal with Margaritaville? Is it famous? We don't have them here.
I love the Cheesecake Factory, do they object to you going in for just a cocktail and a slice of cheesecake?

I don't know if it is actually owned by him but its all tied in with Jimmy Buffet and his music is played there and the food has an Island themed and if I am wrong others here can give more of the low down on the place :thumbsup2

Margaritaville is a favorite for almost everyone, it's a great place if you like that kind of stuff. last time we at there, we were on the Jimmy Buffett radio channel:banana: . Great place though.
Haven't eaten at the cheesecake factory in the studios yet, but my son is a waiter at one at we go there often and it too is very good.
We never eat in IOA, but when we do it's at Mythos.
Citywalk I would say try Hard Rock Cafe, and NBA City those are high up on my list.:thumbsup2

There isn't an actual Cheesecake Factory at the Studios but there's a little place near the Studio gates that serves desserts from there. It's basically the same thing as the actual restaurant but it's not as much selection.

And if you're not familiar with Jimmy Buffet, he's a singer who's music is folk/tropical/country sounding. He's basically a legend in Florida, among other places.

Margaritaville (http://www.margaritaville.com/) and CIP (http://www.cheeseburgerinparadise.com/) are related but not the same. CIP is a joint effort by Jimmy Buffett and Outback.
Some marketing skills that made Jimmy Buffett one of the richest "unknowns" in the Music world for the past 40 years.
If you go to M'ville go before 5 so you can be there for the Margarita volcano erupting!
Get reservations too

I like NBA City at Citywalk. Enchanted Oak in IOA. The Boulangerie at UO, and The Palm(Hard Rock), Sal's and Mama Della's(Portofino), and Island's Buffet(Royal Pacific) at the Hotels.
Of course, most people here love Mythos, but I do not care for it.
