Happy to hear you enjoyed such a good meal at Boathouse! When did you check on Open Table for reservations? Trying to get a gauge for how ressies are working for it.
Oh, by the way, I'm running Wine and Dine this year. What's your next runDisney race?
Love Open Table, we use the app often, and I like watching the points stack up, lol.Open Table
Oh yum! Those look like the Parker House Rolls my Gramma used to make! As long as I've been baking bread I can never seem to get them as perfectly golden as she did. Those look really tasty and pretty drink by the way!We placed our order once our drinks arrived and were then presented with their house made rolls.
House Made Parker Rolls w/ Butter
I was surprised with how much we really enjoyed these rolls. We even got a second basket of them as we devoured them so quickly! They were fresh from the oven and the butter melted perfectly inside.
Eep! I agree that is overpriced for broccoli, we're mainly veggie eaters with a bit of fish and seafood, so we may have to skip this one, but everything looks yummy!If I have to say one bad thing about this meal, it was the broccoli. For $9, you got 2 big pieces of broccoli which didn't really seem like a lot. My husband was happy with it though as it at least gave him some vegetable to eat today since we were slacking on that front.
Glad you had such a rockin' experience there and that your server was fab!Overall, we really enjoyed the Boathouse. Our server was in a great spirits and we had the manager come by our table and speak to us to make sure everything was as great as to be expected. We are totally returning here again during our October trip!
Seriously? We should totally start an online petition.know, right? When I went on an actual safari 8 years ago, they totally let us have wine on the game drive. Why can't Disney allow that?
Wow, these look awesome. I'm sure we'll be eating these when we are at the poly in a few monthsInstead of typical nacho chips, it was actually wonton chips and potato chips. I was surprised on how much I really enjoyed these! The pulled pork really played off the mixture of toppings that were on the nachos. It also was a ton of food so I wasn't able to finish it.
I love a good Parker House Roll and those look delicious.I was surprised with how much we really enjoyed these rolls. We even got a second basket of them as we devoured them so quickly! They were fresh from the oven and the butter melted perfectly inside.
These looking great, though i gotta ask. Any idea what laughing bird shrimp are though? Thats a new one to me.Firecracker Shrimp - Laughing Bird Shrimp, Sriracha Mayo, Shiahito Peppers
I love a good filet. Glad this worked out so well for you.ell, it wasn't the best steak I have ever had (I've been spoiled in my life at some really great steakhouses) but it was definitely one of the best steaks I've had at Disney. It was encrusted in a great steak rub and was cooked to the exact temperature I wanted. There béarnaise wasn't too strong and really worked well with the steak.
Nice Boathouse review, this is one place that I have yet to visit... looks pretty good though!
Great boathouse review!! We may go there on our next trip.

Your meal at the Boathouse looks fantastic! I could have made a meal of those rolls alone! We will have to try to eat there next March for sure!

The boathouse looks great. I especially love all the different places they have to eat there and outdoor seating, which IMO disney just doesn't have enough of. We are staying at POFQ in a few weeks for a quick getaway and plan on either Boathouse or Raglan one night since we'll be a boat ride away from DTD
Congrats on that! I really like that Open Table has the 1000 point experiences as well, though we've not tried one yet. It is nice to know that Open Table can be used at Disney.I'm super close to a $100 certificate which will be great for a nice dinner!
I've read as much as I can about Parker House Roll including recipes and baking techniques, just hope one day to get it. lol.I loved those rolls! I can never get mine that well made either.
Oh their seafood sounds very nice indeed! The cost of veggies still seems strange though, but I'll read up on the menu.They do have a nice amount of fish and seafood on the menu for entrees, we just weren't really in the mood for it. They had a ton of oysters and a decent raw bar from the looks of it.
I checked Open Table about 2 weeks before this trip to see if it was open. I was happy to see it was! I know they are going to start using Disney ADR system as well but at least with Open Table I get the 100 points towards a dining certificate (and I can cancel day of without a $10 per person penalty)
My next runDisney is the Jingle Jungle 5K on Wine & Dine Weekend. I really didn't enjoy running at night during Tower of Terror as starting to run at the time I usually go to bed was really difficult to keep alert for me even with the great crowds around. I'll be at the after party while you are running My husband and I are signed up for the 5K + Rebel Challenge on Tuesday with the AP/DVC early registration. I need to start upping my mileage before my lack of running lately as I think I'm signing us up for either a 10 Miler or 10K in October in Naples for a training race and to help make sure we aren't slacking prior to those races!

Enjoying your dining report by the way!
I had the nachos at Captain Cooke's and really enjoyed them too!
I'm glad to see a Boathouse review as I've been curious. I wanted to eat there when we went last, but the prices were a bit high so it wasn't in our budget. The menu descriptions weren't really impressing me either, but I'm glad to hear the food quality is good. I'm sure we'll get to it eventually.
Great dining revues!! I really want to go to Trader Sam's...but I will have my DD with me in October...and not sure she will be into it....especially if we had to wait...but those glasses are awesome. The food at Boathouse looks amazing too...especially that bread!!
Thanks for the tip on Boathouse. I really would like to try it. I'm so excited about the dining options coming to Disney Springs. I was so hesitant at first, but I'm really hoping it'll be all great changes.
I understand and hear that often about running night races. I'm hoping that I'll be better prepared for the late night this year and will be able to better fuel, rest, and hydrate based on what I know did work for me and what I need to change (i.e.: I was so not hydrated enough and ate too little because I was so afraid of being sick from a heavy meal). That's so cool that you're going to do be running the 5K and Rebel Challenge. I hope you do a TR for it!
We are staying at the Poly in August and those pulled park nachos were on the top of my list for Capt Cooks. That picture just seals the deal now.
Looks like you had a great trip! The Poly Villas look absolutely beautiful. I am really hoping to plan my next trip far enough in advance that I can score a reservation there.
We had a blast at Trader Sam's as well, but like you said, I hope the crazy wait times die down soon.
Love your Boathouse review! It was the only thing I really wanted to do on our most recent trip, but didn't get a chance to experience. Hubby was not terribly interested and it was so insanely expensive, so why waste the money for something he doesn't want. The only thing I really wanted was a lobster roll, which was $29 and I just couldn't bring myself to do it. Maybe next time.
Wow - boathouse looks awesome! I will have to schedule it in on my september trip!
