Favorite Table Service for Lunch in Epcot?

[KendallR]

We are trying to decide where to eat for lunch on the last day of our trip, we will be in Epcot for the day. Where is your favorite sit down restaurant in Epcot for lunch and why? We are not on the dining plan so 1 credit vs 2 doesn't matter. A few members of our party are big foodies-we were thinking of going to Flying Fish but then realized they were not open for lunch. What would you recommend? We were interested in Le Cellier but the reviews seem mixed.

I know it gets less than positive reviews from others, but we really love Coral Reef! We had great food and excellent service while we were there for lunch, and it's smaller than a lot of other restaurants at Disney, which makes it a lot easier to relax.

Chefs de France, hands down. We have lunch there every trip. The food is fantastic, the service top-notch and the ambiance is spot on-you really feel like you are dining in a Paris brasserie.

Tutto Italia! We do it twice it trip. Love to sit outside on their patio and enjoy some delicious italian food! The lasagna is awesome, and my DD26 loves her pasta dish(forget the name, it's like a ravioli with a white sauce and it's sooo good!), so we definitely recommend Tutto for lunch!

And, we just ignore the bad Le Cellier reviews and enjoy our lunches there! At least for us, we've not had a bad meal or experience there in any of our visits. Always get the pretzel bread with the cheese soup, then the filet and it's always been great!

Le Cellier. We just love it, the food the atmosphere.

For lunch? Rose and Crown or Via Napoli.

It gets a bad rap on here, but we love San Angel Inn. The atmosphere is great, the salsa is awesome, great margaritas. We always like the food too. Did the candlelight package a few years ago and got 3 different apps, honestly we could just order apps with the salsa and be fine. We are extreme foodies btw.

I would recommend Spice Road Table. The food and atmosphere are wonderful and the staff is so friendly. We have eaten at every TS in EP and Spice Road Table is now our go-to spot.

We like San Angel Inn as well! I think every place gets mixed reviews, just depends on the experience...even we can go one day and love it and go the next and it may not be so good. (I like it better than La Hacienda

Another vote for Spice Road Table. I can't tell you how many times our plan was to eat at the Tangierine Cafe but we got a table at SRT instead.

My DH and I just love the pizza at Via Napoli, but I don't know if I would send a foodie there, even though they have some very different pizzas! (One of the pizzas has cantaloupe on it... )

I would probably suggest Spice Road Table or San Angel Inn. I haven't eaten at those places due to my pickiness, but I have seen great reviews!

Garden Grill. Really neat atmosphere. Good food. Fun character interactions.

Spice Road Table is very good. A must do every trip. Chicken kabobs my husband like the steak, potato wedges, and haricot verts. Hummus fries with harissa is delicious also the hummus and olives plate with pita is very good. Maybe a pitcher of sangria.

Chefs De France is also good second choice. For lunch I typically get the tuna Niçoise salad, share cheese and charcuterie boards, husband like the steak frites or Beef bourguignon.

Another for spice road table who has eaten at all Epcot ts except the buffet/character experiences. I think foodies enjoy San Angel more than people looking for more typical Mexican fare and the atmosphere really is very unique!

Absolutely loved Spice Road Table...Even my mom, who is not an adventurous eater enjoyed it. I had the lamb chops. I would order it again in a heart beat. Mom had sliders, although she would have gotten the sauces that topped them on the side. And the patio is just a fabulous setting.

I agree with the Chef de France recommendations. Food was absolutely delicious, service was great and attentive, and the restaurant is just lovely inside!

 

[arwickwire]

Loved Via Napoli, but not sure for foodie. Just depends on who is in the group. My kids loved the pizza.

Ditto, with so many great QS and kiosks during F&W and F&G, the only real TS I make every trip at EPCOT is Chefs de France--the lunch special prix fixes.

We don't do table service lunches (we're back at the pool by then), but we love Via Napoli for dinner.

Coral Reef like another user said is really great for lunch. It keeps you in Future World, for a relaxed approach to that area of the park. Alternatively, you could do San Angel Inn (great atmosphere!) which I'm reading has been getting some bad rap here, but I liked it a lot.
However, table service always screams breakfast or dinner to me, but Lunch is always fun. Epcot has some really great options.
Oh! Another that could be a great lunch is Rose & Crown Pub. I'm sure the water view would be gorgeous during the afternoon.
