ADRs Question

[Leeanne]

I hate asking this but I just realized that our ADR date is March 1 and I have to go out of town all next week. I need some help quick! Opinions on these restaurants? We will be in Disney for several days on our honeymoon, so we would like some nice restaurants. My plan (as of right now!) is to take it slow and check out part of the parks that we have never seen and then have a relaxing dinner somewhere. Here are the restaurants we are looking at, I would like opinions on all of them because we are debating about a 15 day trip at CS!
Thanks everybody!!!


Captain's Grille
Maya Grill
Via Napoli
Tutto Italia
Teppan Edo
Restauran Marrakesh
Nine Dragons
Kouzzina
Big River Grille & Brewing
Narcoossee - 2
Yachtsman - 2
Cape May Breakfast

OK.......I'm in

Captain's Grille- love it for lunch, quiet, cool & hidden

Maya Grill- would not make a trip to that hotel for that restaurant......come to think of it I would never go back

Via Napoli- fun, new, bright and good, some of the best service we had last week. Appetizers are a really nice variety.

Tutto Italia- Same as Alfredo's minus the Alfredo. Had dinner last week there and I'm done for a long time.

Teppan Edo-ok.....

Restauran Marrakesh- used to like it until we went to Morocco, fun entertainment and the atmosphere is lovely

Nine Dragons- sesame chicken & ginger ice cream....

Kouzzina- menu looks just as it did when it was Spoodle's

Big River Grille & Brewing- GROSS

Narcoossee - 2- Lovely, excellent service, fish & chops are delicious. Nice grown up place. Servers usually wonderful!

Yachtsman - 2- One of our favorites. Top notch beef & service.

Cape May Breakfast- ok......cute surroundings and typical buffet

Captain's Grille - I've only been for breakfast (which is excellent) I would imagine lunch and dinner are fine.
Maya Grill - The food wasn't bad by any means. If you're staying at CS it's a fine dinner. I wouldn't travel to get there.
Via Napoli - The pizza is very good if you like traditional pizza (thin crust, lot of sauce, not a lot of cheese). The rest was mostly forgettable. But I'm also Italian and a little hard to please.
Tutto Italia - Not bad by any means. Although I would pick Il Mulino over Tutto. Once again, Italian and hard to please.
Teppan Edo - It's my BFF's favorite restaurant in Epcot. I think the food is fine, but I have better hibachi close to my house. If you have a hibachi steakhouse anywhere near you, the food is probably better than Teppan Edo with at least twice bigger portion sizes.
Restauran Marrakesh -I've never had a bad experience at Marrakesh, but I find the food to be every bit as good (obviously less variety) at Tangierine Cafe for 1/3 the price.
Nine Dragons - The food isn't bad, but I find it to be very overpriced and it's not great Chinese food. I have better here at home.
Kouzzina - Personally, I was very disappointed in Kouzzina. I really wanted to like it. I love greek food, and I'm a huge Iron Chef fan. The food was sub-par, and also lukewarm. The service was poor at best.
Big River Grille & Brewing - Have never been.
Narcoossee - My very least favorite of all the signatures. It's the only signature whose food I really feel isn't worth the price. It can also be very loud at times. That being said, it's still a better meal than most you'll find at Disney. For the price though, you'd have a much better meal at Flying Fish or Citricos.
Yachtsman - I don't eat a lot of red meat, and to really appreciate a steak house, you need to order steak. I've never had a bad meal at Yachtsman though.
Cape May Breakfast - I enjoy Cape May much more than most of the character breakfasts. I find the food to be better and replenished more often than some of the other buffets, and it's also not quite as loud an chaotic as some of the others.

Captain's Grill-not bad, usually quiet.

Maya Grill-I would not travel to it.

Via Napoli-good pizza but the place was so noisy.

Tutto-I agree with pp, skip and go to Il Mulino where the food is better and the atmosphere is more adult.

Teppen Edo-fun but I can eat same stuff at home.

Nine Dragons-I can get better at home.

Big River-it's fun to sit outside if weather is good; food isn't great.

Marrakech-something different, I like it okay.

Kouzzina-had one of my worst meals in 21 WDW vacations here. The rest of my party thought theirs was okay while mine was horrible.

Cape May-it's the quietest character breakfast with average food but the nicest CMs and great character interaction.

Narcoosees-my least favorite of the Disney signatures. My last 2 meals have been very disappointing. It used to be much better.

Yachtsman-also at the bottom of my signature list but we are not huge meat eaters. Service here has always been great and I do enjoy desserts here.

Maya Grill - Went here last year, not as good as it previously was. Steak was bland (not bad, just not flavorful) and service was very slow. 2009 went there twice and everything was great. Not sure if 2010 was an off-night or what, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it for sure. They did have a very good Chocolate Chambord Cake dessert though...


Via Napoli - Was very good last year. Was there within a month of official opening (late September) and could tell that things were still settling down to normal. The food was delicious and the view was very nice (see below). Our server was horrible though. It took him 15+ minutes just to introduce himself after we sat down, and then we had to follow up 10 minutes later with another server just to get some water. Of course, this seemed to be only him as the other servers were great with their tables (and covering his slack on mine).


Yachtsman - 2 - Had an excellent meal here last year. One of the three best desserts I had all trip was here (Banana Napoleon, the other two were the one at Maya Grill above, and Citricos)

Thank you all for this. I hate asking this type of thing because I know I can research them and find reviews, but with my being out of town all this week, I knew that I wouldn't have the time that I need to do so. I appreciate at each of you. We haven't eaten at any of these restaurants (with exception of Morroco 4 years ago, I ate there) and we like trying all new restaurants!
Thanks all!

But if anybody else wants to leave reviews of just one I would appreciate that as well!!
