I've only been to 2 of the list so take my choice of Cape May with a grain of salt. However I really enjoy it, so much so that we've been back a couple of times. My favorites on the buffet are mussels in a tomato broth, fried fish, and steamed red potatoes. The crab legs are not the best, kinda rubbery and hard to crack in my experience. I always get them though, hoping they will be better.

The other on that list, Coral Reef, I do not recommend. Small portions, big price, lack of well...deliciousness. Great atmosphere, though.

Bluezoo: seared sea scallops appetizer, tuna tartare, combo chilled seafood platter, 2 lb. Cantonese lobster, dry aged ribeye (when you want some turf with your surf). Great cocktails and big wine selection.

Boathouse. Never been to Blue Zoo, Narcoossee's is ok but a limited menu, and Cape May isn't good at all--low quality buffet food.

I was torn between Boathouse and Bluezoo but gave Boathouse the slight edge for atmosphere - I love sitting out on the dock. But both are really excellent. My current obsession at both is the yellowfin tuna. So good!

I love seafood. You don't have a few of my favorites on here - Tiffins (for the whole fried fish, it was delicious AND cool), Skipper Canteen (they have this coconut mixed seafood dish that was SO delicious I wish I could have finished the whole thing), and California Grill for sushi.

Out of this list, I've been to Coral Reef and Narcoosees. Narcoosees was good but very expensive. Coral Reef had a prix fix menu that was a deal and one of the options is a totally delicious shrimp and grits. The appetizers were fantastic too. For the money (full disclosure- not using dining plan and we have AP discounts), Coral Reef was a big winner. $36 for appetizer, entree, dessert, and beverage!

Next trip I'll be pushing for Coral Reef and either Tiffins or Skipper Canteen for revisits.

Ive eaten at all of these with the exception of Coral Reef and the refurbed Flying Fish. Imo Blue Zoo is the best seafood on property. Boathouse has very good seafood with good views if you sit outside but inside its soo loud. Paddlefish was average at best, Fultons was much better. Narcoosees was just ok seafood wise but the steak was pretty darn good and Cape may is ok if you know what your getting going in, buffett quality seafood. I do love their peel and eat shrimp, their salmon and their clam chowder, I could take or leave the crab there.

We ate at the Boathouse about ten days ago. I had the Baked Crab Stuffed Lobster and it was delicious. My husband had the Oscar style Filet Mignon. We really enjoyed our dinner.

+1, I also like their clam chowder. The manhattans there are amazing.

It's a tough call between Flying Fish and Bluezoo, but I've got to give an ever so slight edge to Bluezoo.

A vote for Cape May but many people on this board have been telling me I need to give Paddlefish and the Boathouse a second chance.

For me it's not even close; Blue Zoo is not only the best option for seafood when in WDW, but it is simply one of the best restaurants in all of Disney. As for Cape May, it's Long John Silvers on a buffet station. I was not impressed, even with the somewhat thin and stringy crab legs.

I vote for Cape May or Boathouse.

It kind of depends on what kind of place you're looking for. I love Cape May (the crab legs were fantastic here when we went last month, but they can be hit or miss.) But it's more casual and the food more basic.

The Boathouse is also really terrific, but it's a little more upscale with less options than Cape May.

We have been to Flying Fish and Cape May. Glad to see good reviews for Blue Zoo. We have reservations in May.

Cape May! Cannot understand the posters that 'down' the crab legs. We have eaten them in many seafood 'states' (one of which I'm from) and restaurants, and cannot fault them at all.

Just left Disney for 9 days and ate at Cape May twice (which is our usual). Did not take pictures, but wish I could show how large and beautiful they were. But, could not show by picture how juicy and flavorful they were. Oh, well, hard enough to get later ressies as it is, so maybe not all bad as the restaurant was full. (And far, far, from a Long John Silvers LOL)

Also, love the clam chowder. In fact, enjoyed everything I ate, just could not try everything, and we go, basically for the seafood.
