Looking for recommendations for our anniversary dinner in September. Last year we decided on California Grill, which was great, but I thought we would try something else. The Yachtsman is a favorite of ours, but we were there a few weeks ago. Thinking about Artist Point, we've never had dinner there (did the character breakfast nearly 20 years ago!). Suggestions please!
If you've never tried Artist Point, you should definitely give it a try. We like to go early and ask for a window seat--we especially like the window tables to the right of the restaurant as they overlook the pool/waterfall/geyser area. The food is usually excellent as is the service. The wine list is composed of wines from the Northwest (I suggest Oregon reds and Washington whites), and it's one of the best wine lists in the World. Another exceptional restaurant is Jiko. Very romantic, exceptional food, great service, and again one of the top wine lists on property (mostly S. African wines). Unless you have a vehicle, it can be a bother to travel there, but it's worth the effort. Of course, there's always Victoria and Albert's, but that is very expensive, naturally. One don't do recommendation: Monsieur Paul. Without doubt, it's the worst dining experience we've ever had at Disney. Mediocre food, indifferent service, and an ambiance reminiscent of a fast food joint. Have fun choosing!Looking for recommendations for our anniversary dinner in September.

. . . . . . . Have any of you ever taken a socio-phobe to the lodge before? He's a lovely man really he just likes his own space and peace & quiet, things he should get plenty of at WL. I'm just worried we will end up in a lock off room and crying kids in the attached studio will set him off! If anyone has any ideas or experience in placating people like this I'd much appreciate any suggestions you have!
Happy anniversary TWOKATS.
My deepest condolences to Benjyt on the loss of her mother.
I'm glad I found this thread again. Had forgotten how friendly and nice you all are.
Again I'm more of a reader than a poster, but have always enjoyed reading the interactions amongst you, it feels like you've known each other forever.
I've owned VWL since 2001, been a member of the boards since 2005 and still have below 1000 posts, I'm not good at jumping in but I am going to try.
So please bear with me and maybe nudge me every once in awhile.
Pat
