Grand Floridian Cafe, Narcoosee's, or Citrico's?

Getting a message at the GF and wanted to schedule dinner for afterwards. Just my husband and I, no children.

Assuming you meant you are getting a massage at the spa?

Citricos is our favorite Disney signature. Just the right mix of ambiance and quality for an adults only dinner. The later the better to avoid undue noise from families with kidlets.

But if you just want a decent meal, there's nothing wrong with either of the others.

Oh, is the Spa not within the GF? I was assuming it was.

Thanks for the Reco!

My vote is for Citricos.

Narcoossee's is one of my favorite restaurants on property! I would go there or Citrico's unless you want something more laid back and casual then do GF Cafe

We have eaten at narcoossee countless times and we ate there twice on our trip earlier this month. We also tried Citricos. Both are good but I would go with narcoossee of the two. Gf cafe is ok but not something I would choose over the others.

Have you considered Victoria and Alberts? That would be my choice for a kid free meal.

I would plan to relax at the spa for awhile after my massage and shower there etc. I am always drowsy after a massage? Are you staying close? You could get a nap and come back later for dinner

Citricos Narcoossee's GFC a VERY distant third---

Completely agree. GFC isn't even in the same league.

Our favorite by far is Narcooses

She/he were referring to your typo of message instead of massage.

I would give a slight edge to Narcoossee's for the location. They are all great, check the menus and see what you like. Narcoossee's and Citrico's are better, but they are more expensive and count as two on the DDP. The surf and turf at Narcoosee's is one of the better DDP Signature Dining values. Narcoossee's usually has a little more of a "noisy and busy" feel.

BTW - the spa is in its own building across the driveway to the Villas.

First of all enjoy the Spa it looks just fantastic after the refub!

For me Narcoossee's is BY FAR the best option here I have had two really poor experiences at Citrico's...

I love the views at Narcoossee's and the Lobster and Filet have improved over the years I suggest going for Wishes then you can watch Wishes while enjoying a nice tea / coffee and Almond Cheesecake

HA! Hours later and it just hit me that I spelled message instead of massage. Good Lord! Yes, definitely a massage and not a message.

Thanks everyone! I went back and forth between Citricos and Narcoosees. Narcoosees won out because there was a 7:55 and that gives us just enough time to eat and head to the boat dock to see wishes at 10. Thanks!

Narcoossee's is one of our favorite restaurants in DW. We've always had excellent food and service. Also, there is the opportunity to see Wishes and the Electric Water Pageant from either your table or the deck outside.

Sigs take about 90-120 minutes so it's possible that with a 7:55 res you'll just be finishing up dinner. You'll be able to go outside to the deck to see Wishes.

Citricos was problematic for us. I think it was an off night since it gets good reviews here on the boards, but for us the dining room and the kitchen didn't seem to be in sync. Long, long, long waits between courses and when my food came out it was cold - as if it had to wait while the rest of our table's entrees were being prepared.
