We had a 6:10 ADR for dinner on 10/01. We arrived at 6 and were seated at about 6:30. Since it was our 25th anniversary (and noted on ADR), I was hoping for a window table. Instead, we had a table along the wall closest to the elevator. Not a problem at all. It was decorated with streamers and pixie dust, and our server went out of her way to make our celebration special.
We were on the dining plan (free at that time). Dh and I both ordered the Shrimp Cocktail and thought they were very good. We both also ordered the filets. The steaks were excellent; the vegetable accompaniment was cold. We loved the pretzel rolls, although neither of us cared for the mustard butter. Our server was happy to provide plain butter for dh.
For dessert, dh chose the chocolate cake and ice cream (server even brought a tiny sample of the icing out for dh - the icing snob - so he could "try" it ahead of ordering!). I ordered the Key Lime Creme Brulee. I love key lime anything, but this lacked any flavor other than sweet. NOT a good choice, in my opinion.
Our server presented us with a certificate and 2 champagne flutes as an anniversary gift as we finished. All in all, we had a very special time at CRT. We didn't feel rushed; the service wasn't too slow, either. The food was good, although not spectacular. Cinderella did make an appearance in the lobby. And....we missed the sudden downpour of the evening since we were dining in the castle!!!
