Dinner & Wishes - Other than CA Grill

[dschribs]

I'm looking to make an ADR for a place where we can have a sit down dinner then (without going too far or using any means of transportation) get a good view of Wishes. Ideally, it would be a place that has sort of a lounge or outside balcony where we could get a drink and watch the fireworks after our dinner. (Yes, exactly like the CA Grill).

So other than CA Grill, any suggestions?

One follow up: Does the Grand Floridian have a decent place to watch wishes? I was thinking maybe dinner at Citricos. Does the Grand Floridian have a lounge or bar where we could watch Wishes from after dinner??

FYI: It's just my wife and I. No kids.

Thanks!

I would suggest anywhere at the Poly. There is a lounge outside of Ohana that is all windows and wishes could be seen from there while having drinks. Ohana and Kona Cafe both have excellent food. There is also a sushi bar on the same level.

And if you don't want Ohana's lounge, you can go down to the Poly "beach" and watch the fireworks. Great view, and you can often get a lounge chair!

What time would be a good time for an ADR? What time does Wishes usually start? We'll be there second week of April 2011.

Thanks!!!

You can make an ADR for Narcoossee's and watch Wishes from the deck outside.

If you want to watch Wishes on the Grand Floridian grounds without having an ADR, there is a great spot outside of Gasparilla Grill & Games (the GF QS restaurant), right on the dock. My family has watched Wishes from there many times.

You could go to Citricos but there are very few tables that have a view of Wishes. It would be best to go outside and downstairs from Citricos to see Wishes, which is exactly where Gasparilla is.

We had a great window seat at Citricos and we were able to watch Wishes

Also did dinner at the Poly and then went to the beach to watch the fireworks...with cocktails in hand

At Narcoossees we had a great view but the minute the fireworks start the outside balcony will fill up and block our view so you have to make sure you are outside.
