Best Restaurant at Downtown Disney or Boardwalk?

[aimeew5477]

I am looking to make reservations at one of these locations: Downtown Disney or Disney's Boardwalk. Does anyone have recommendations? (Kouzziana, Flying Fish Cafe, Wolfgang Puck Cafe, Cap n Jacks, T-Rex, etc.) Keep in mind, we will be traveling with 2 little ones- but would LOVE a great meal (doesn't have to be kid oriented, just kid friendly)

THANKS!

Wait, I just realized that some of these aren't on the Disney Dining Plan. So let me add that we are looking for the best restaurant in these areas ON the DDP.

Wolfgang Puck Cafe at Downtown Disney Westside. Our meal there still ranks in our Top 3 Disney meals of all time.

Ragland Road (Downtown Disney Westside) and Kouzzina (Boardwalk) also take the DDP.

We very much enjoy Raglan Road in DTD. It is 1 TS credit on the DDP. The restaurant is beautiful and the food was good. I think the only other sit down restaurant that takes the DDP in DTD is Cap'n Jack's in the Marketplace. It does not get good reviews here on the DIS
Flying Fish at the Boardwalk is a 2 credit TS. It is a signature restaurant.
ESPN is a sports bar with typical bar food. It is loud but fun for what it is.
Kouzina is brand new and Greek oriented. The menu is interesting.
We have eaten at the Big River Grille which is a brew pub, with pub grub. We enjoy it, but it too gets mixed reviews here.

If you're willing to give the 2 credits for Flying Fish, I'd do it. I really enjoyed my meal there last December.

Even though this is not a table service restaurant, at Downtown Disney I would highly recommend Earl of Sandwich and in my opinion it's one of the best places to eat at in Walt Disney World. Plus it's only 1 counter service credit on the Disney Dining Plan.

Planet Hollywood in DTD also takes DDP...and it was my son's favorite meal when we were there last month.

Me and my DH ate at Cap'n Jacks last trip and were both disappointed by the dinner. The food we got was good, but we found the menu limited. DH likes seafood and was surprised that they did not have a good selection of meal choices. Wolfgang Pucks is good - I've been there a couple of times and loved it.

We just got back from 5 days on the DDP and tried all new restaurants. We are not very adventerous eaters typically but decided to try as many new as we could. Kouzinna (? spelling) was really good. I would not say the menu was interesting. There is more normal on the menu then one would think. We all really enjoyed it, from beginning to end! If you go, try to get Mary Ann as your server. She was awesome!
We heard that Flying Fish was awesome as well, but it is 2 TS.
We also loved the Kona Cafe' and the Biergarten (Epcot). Narcoosee's...not so much. Over rated and not worth 2 TS!!

We loved the Wolfgang Puck Cafe is a must for us every time we go back.
