Hope these reviews help someone. As background, my dining partner and I were not on any dining plans. I only wrote about the main, sit-down meals. Enjoy!

Monday, April 24th – San Angel Inn; Mexico, Epcot (Dinner)
I had the Camerones Con Fideos - shrimp (marinated and grilled) was good but the pasta (with tomatoes and chipotle pepper) was luke warm at best. Dining partner had the Plato Mexicano (Beef Tenderloin Tampiquena, chicken enchilada, and ground beef burrito, served with refried beans and rice) which she thought was very good. Atmosphere was great! We had a table by the water (which we requested – had to wait a few extra minutes but was well worth it). I don’t have a need to try this restaurant again.

Tuesday, April 25th – Boatwright’s Dining Hall; Port Orleans Riverside (Dinner)
I had the Grilled 10 oz. Prime Marinated Top Sirloin Steak. It was delicious! The potatoes and fried onion rings were also delicious. My dining partner had the Slow-roasted Prime Rib with baked potato which she said was terrific. This restaurant is worth a repeat visit.

Wednesday, April 26th - Sand Trap Bar & Grill; Osprey Ridge/Eagle Pines Golf Course (Breakfast)
This restaurant is a gem! It is VERY quiet and out of the way - a good place to relax (even if you are not playing golf) and grab a good meal that is not too expensive. I had "The Birdie" - Two eggs scrambled, hash brown potatoes, and bacon. My dining partner had the Lo-Carb Breakfast - three eggs scrambled with sausage. Both meals were excellent and well worth the view (18th green of both courses with a lake and fountain). The staff here is exceptional!

Wednesday, April 26th – Wolfgang Puck “The Dining Room” (Upstairs); Westside, Downtown Disney (Dinner)
I had the Char-broiled New York Strip Steak with horseradish mashed potatoes and baby vegetables. The steak at Boatwright’s was much better, IMHO. My dining partner had the Char-broiled Filet Mignon with roasted squash, sauteed spinach, and grilled Portobello. Her favorite part of the meal was the port wine veal sauce! The atmosphere here is terrific and because of that, it’s worth another visit.

Thursday, April 27th - Marrakesh Restaurant; Moroco, Epcot (Dinner)
A hidden treasure – one of our favorite meals this trip! We both had the Marrakesh Feast. The Harira soup was to die for! Beef Brewat Rolls had mushrooms in them – which my system does not like; I did take a little bite and it was delicious. Lemon Chicken was outstanding as was the Beef Shish Kebab. I don’t normally like couscous, but the Couscous with Seven Vegetables was quite good. The assorted Moroccan pastries consisted of various types of Baklava.

Friday, April 28th – Nine Dragons; China, Epcot (Dinner)
This restaurant seems to get mixed reviews but we both love Chinese so we decided to try it. I had the Sweet and Sour Pork. It was the best I have ever had! My dining partner had the General Tso's Chicken. She orders this is every Chinese restaurant and said this was the best she has ever had! This was also a favorite meal.

Saturday, April 29th – Teppanyaki; Japan, Epcot (Lunch)
We had the first seating of the day (noon) in order to catch our late afternoon flight. I had the Hatamoto (shrimp and chicken combination) – which was delicious. My dining partner had the Filet Mignon, which I also tried, and it was Great! Both dishes were served with Fresh Vegetables (squash/onions) with Udon Noodles and Steamed Rice. The presentation/preparation of the meal was terrific here! Lots of interaction with the chef. This is worth a repeat visit.
 
Wednesday, April 26th – Wolfgang Puke

:lmao: :rotfl2: Sorry but I thought you were going to write that the restaurant was terrible after that heading!

Thanks for the great reviews and the fun typo ;)
 
Thanks for the great reviews. I'm glad someone had a positive review of Nine Dragons. I was considering it as I love chinese, and the nearest authentic restaurant is too many miles away!
 

Great reviews, thanks! We enjoy Marrakesh too. I never noticed the brewat rolls have mushrooms; I love them either way!
 
I'm so glad to hear your reviews! We may have to grab a nice breakfast at the Sand Trap =)
 
Thanks for sharing :thumbsup2 I have also enjoyed Nine Dragons before so it's good to know I'm not the only one. :cool1:
