CG without the view

[OKW Lover]

I've often felt that CG gets much of its love because of the view. So, a hypothetical question - would you eat there even if it wasn't where it is? Say they simply moved the whole restaurant (food, servers, etc) down to where Steakhouse 71 is. Would it be worth the price?

Definitely not! We only go there for the view.

No, the magic view from CG is a huge part of the experience. Throw in some very good food and a view of the fireworks! CG stays right where it is!

I would have with the a la carte menu. There were several *very* good dishes on that one. Prix fixe, not so much.

I think of the PF menu as a character meal, where the character is the view.

I like the food more than the view.

The food was very good but the service put it over the top. Maybe we just lucked out, but I have read that the service is generally top-notch. The price was reasonable, I thought. I would eat there for a special occasion if it were a local place with no fireworks.

Not for that price. Knock off $10 and it would be borderline.

Good question. The view is a huge part of the overall experience for us. We may still go if you could order a la carte but likely would not for the current prix fixe.
