I am getting married at WDW and we will be vacationing there for 3 weeks. My mom will only be staying for a week and so far these are the ADR's we have planned during her stay.
O'hanas, Coral Reef, Le Cellier, V & A (wedding meal) California Grill and Kona. My DF and I will be dining at Jiko on the 2nd week of our trip and I have been trying to decide whether it would be worth going a 2nd time with my mom. She wants to visit the AKL lodge and originally we had planned to go to Boma but she isn't overly fond of buffets and to be honest the menu at Jiko appeals much more. I realise I will have to pay OOP for O'hanas if I plan to squeeze in Jiko too. We would like to have this meal as a 'thank you for being so great' thing and I know people rave about Jiko on the boards.
I just wanted everyones opinion if Jiko is worth going twice to? If not could you recommend another signature restaurant you think is worth it? Df and I are also doing Artists Point.
 
On occasion, we will dine at Jiko twice during a trip. When we do, we try to sit one time at the "Cooking Place" and watch the chefs put together appetizer plates. Have you considered dining at BlueZoo. The atmosphere, the food, and the service are fantastic. I would consider it a "hidden gem."
Congratulations on your wedding and have a great time. May you have many, many years of happiness together.

:love:
 
Definitely worth it. We LOVE Jiko's. It is our favorite restaurant in all of WDW. We have two reservations within 11 days for our trip in December.

Congrats on the upcoming wedding, too!
 
ABSOLUTELY!! Especially with a three week stay:thumbsup2 I often take short trips to AKL and dine at Jiko 3 nights out of 5. It is SO delicious and the service and atmosphere wonderful!
 

What about Flying Fish? We have had some great meals at FF.

definitely worth it... we ate there the first night of our honeymoon last month and loved it so much that we rearranged some of our ADR's in order to make another ressie there later in the week. :)
 
If I was going to be at WDW for three weeks, I would definitely go to Jiko twice. There are so many great things on the menu, this would certainly give a chance to try more of them (to say nothing of getting to try more of the great wines they have). Go for it!
