dining opinions

[Mousekakrazy]

Alrighty folks I'm almost to that magical 180 day mark (September 12th). I am having a hard time choosing some of my last restaurants and would like opinions for what you all think. We are a DxDP family and we enjoy having that sit down meal at the end of the day. We would like to meet some characters but it isn't something where we HAVE to meet as many as possible. All adults ages 19-64. We have a car so we can drive to resorts on Disney Springs on our own. (90 total TS credits to use)

The following I have down for breakfasts. If there are better breakfast options please let me know I was thinking Kona one morning maybe
We will be doing first thing 730/8 ADRs for these.
1.Garden Grill
2.Crystal Palace
4.Tusker House
5. 1900 Park Fare
6. The Wave

We only have 2 places we will eat an actual sit down lunch
1.Sci Fi
2.Akeraus (day of departure and would be leaving afterwards)

The following I have down for dinners (we will be using snack credits or PPO for something light in park if needed)
If there are better dinner options please let me know I was thinking maybe Ohana for dinner one night
1.Hoop Dee Doo Revue
2.Mama Melrose (wanted to do fantasmic package but heard mixed reviews about this place)
3.La Hacienda De Angel
4.California Grill
5.Sanna
6.Artist Point

Only one of your table service dinners I can speak to is Mama Melrose. It is fine but there are certainly places we like better - definitely 'Ohana, Raglan Road and Chefs de France. If you have the credits for a signature then I'd upgrade to Yachtsman, Flying Fish or Narcoossee's.

Lots of great places to dine.
Has been a while since we ate at Mama Melrose, the food was good, but typical Italian. We are going back next month (know that doesn't help you now)
La Hacienda De Angel beautiful decor. We have never been excited about the food. Average at best. We have much better traditional Mexican at home, so we skip this one.
California Grill always love this place. Even better if you can arrange your meal around the time of the fireworks. There last fall and excellent.
Sanna is really good. I may prefer Jiko slightly, but both are very good. Ate at both last fall.
Artist Point another one of our favorites. Ate there last fall.
Flying Fish the menu changed after the remodel. Decor and food still very good. Ate there last fall, going back this fall.
Narcoossees my wife and daughter really enjoyed.
Raglan Road i really fun and has good food. It is often quite loud. Last time we were there, a lady at the table next to us complained about the noise. They have a live band, what do you expect?

We have done lunch at Mama Melrose on most of our trips. We haven't gotten the pastas but go enjoy the flatbreads and salad. A good place for OOP if you are doing the flatbreads. FWIW we don't use the DDP. Many of the in park restaurants have the same menu for dinner and lunch.
