Coral Reef or alternative?

Thinking about eating at Coral Reef for dinner during my Epcot day. Ate there a couple of years and enjoyed the mahi mahi. I wonder if Coral Reef is worth a return visit? I know opinions all over the place concerning this place still I would like to read what others think of it. If not Coral Reef, then what other Epcot restaurant could be recommended for a solo Disney traveler?

We love Coral Reef. We have always had great food and service. That is where we will be eating on our Epcot day.

We loved it, too. It was DH's favorite meal of our trip.

If you're looking for a range of opinions, Coral Reef is on our family's "never return" list. We've been there several times, all with bad service. The food has been decent, even after one waitress tried to convince me not to order a particular dish because she didn't like the smell of it. We also really don't like how incredibly loud the restaurant is, even compared to other WDW restaurants.

Favorites of ours include Biergarten and the restaurant in the UK (the name is escaping me right now).
