Aerials Grotto or Wine Country Trattoria?

[ZanderMan]

Which restaurant is better? Aerials Grotto or Wine Country Trattoria? We are doing the WOC package and I can't decided which restaurant to book with. We will be doing this on October 26. Also we'll have our son with us that is 2 years old. Any thoughts or comments would help!*

I admit I've done neither. Here are some menus though so you can compare what foods are served.

My understanding about Ariel's is that it's a shared appetizer tray that the whole table needs to agree on and a shared dessert tray, but each diner can choose their individual entree.

Princesses will not be there for WoC dining, so if you were concerned that wouldn't interest your son, that's not a factor.

Here are some pictures & review of the Ariel's Grotto WoC Dining Package. We loved it & I went in March as well. I've never done the Trattoria so can't compare.

I just did the Ariel's Groto dinner package on Saturday, can't recommend it highly enough.

And the reserved seating is fantastic. I posted a review under the character dinning section.

I have done both and I think WCT was worth the money more than AG. It seemed a little fancier I guess you could say, Ariels Grotto is great but I would rather pay the money when the Princesses were there.

Ariels:
Appetizer(3 set meat and shellfish) - Yummy - draw
Entree(Tri-Tip) - Yummy - better Entree
Desert(assorted) - Trattoria was better

Trattoria:
Appetizer - Yummy - draw
Entree(Beef steak?) - Ariels was better
Desert(assorted) - better Deserts

I gave done both but I didn't do Ariel's Grotto on the World of Color pacakage. How old is your son?

If we do dining again with WoC, we'll try Ariel's.
