Date Night

[OhAmbs]

Hello,

Going the last week of Feb and DH will be leaving our Princess @ Lilo's Playhouse on one night for us to have an adult night at Disney. Looking for Restaurant suggestions. So far we've tried Jiko, Il Mulino, Be our Guest, and Garden Grill. He complained that our last time at Jiko was 'too quite' since we were the only table seated in the little wine room but I'm afraid STK is way too night cluby for his taste as well.

Thanks!

Flying Fish is outstanding and I consider romantic (especially the back room against the wall).

EDIT: If you're so inclined, I think having a drink at the connected AbracadaBar always adds to the experience.

One of our favorite restaurants on site is Tiffins. Start out with drinks at Nomad Lounge and then go to dinner. The rooms are large enough but not loud and the rooms are all well themed. The food is excellent.

When we were there in October we did a date night at Cali Grill and it was awesome. We had a great meal and drinks. It was not rushed and right after we stepped outside to watch the fireworks. It was the perfect date night.

Cali Grill for sure. Food is amazing and you can't best the atmosphere. It's now our go to Disney date night.

Hmmm, we loved a date night we did at Jiko but also had a good one at Les Chefs in Epcot and Cali Grill. The one we didn't like was Il Mulino, had a crappy table and it was so loud we could hardly talk to each other!

We have done date night at Yachtsman Steakhouse, Artist Point, Flying Fish and we are doing Jiko next month. The small quiet table you described at Jiko sounds fabulous to me, lol. All of the places we have done date night have been good spots.

Camp Dolphin is 'free' if you have an entree at any Swan & Dolphin Signature (some restrictions apply).

Swan & Dolphin Signatures are better than Disney run places.

My wife and I don't have kids, so every night is Date Night in Disney. Our more formal "Date Night" favorites are bluezoo and Shula's. They tend to be quiet (although some conventions bring louder guests), so I am not sure your DH will be interested in them (although, if he is a football fan, Shula's décor might make up for it). But almost any signature restaurant makes for a great Date Night dinner. CG and Narcoossee's are popular because they offer some sort of view of the HEA fireworks.

If you are looking for February 28th (or later) a great night might be grazing around the kiosks at F&G. It will be crowded since it starts on 2/28, but still very enjoyable none the less.

His issue was that we were the only table in the room. We booked dinner really early and they didn’t have anyone else seated, so the 2 servers basically stood in a corner making no noise. DH said he felt like he had to whisper, lol

Tiffins (can do a walk through of Pandora at night after) , California Grill (time it to see fireworks makes it even better). Flying Fish (walk around the Boardwalk after, Jellyrolls, or Abracabar).
Bluezoo is on our list as everyone raves about it, but haven't tried it yet.
If money is not an issue, hard to beat Victoria and Alberts.

I've had that a couple of times, not at Disney but other restaurants and yeah that is awkward
