Help me figure out where to eat.

I know this sounds crazy to some of you, but sometimes we go to WDW for a few days and don't go to any parks. We stay at one of the resorts, hang out at DTD and explore other resorts. We'll be doing this again in a couple weeks and I'm trying to figure out where to have dinner one night. We're going to Cape May Cafe the first night. DH wants table service, but I don't want to go anywhere too expensive (around $15-$20 for an entree would be good). Has to be DTD, BW, or a resort restaurant. So where would you go?

P.S. - We just went to T-Rex and have been to Rainforest a lot. Would like to try something different.

How about Captain's Grille at Yacht Club or Beaches & Cream.

in DTD would fit your requirements. The adult entrees at Kona Cafe might be a little higher than the range given but not too much. I wouldn't hesitate to eat at either.

According to the menu sorter on this website, here are all of the resort and DTD table service choices for entrees in the $10-$20 per person range:

Cape May Cafe - Beach Club

Big River Grille and Brewing Works - Boardwalk
ESPN Club - Boardwalk

Fresh Mediterranean Market - Dolphin

Bongos Cuban Cafe - Downtown Disney
House of Blues - Downtown Disney
Paradiso 37 - Downtown Disney
Planet Hollywood - Downtown Disney
Raglan Road - Downtown Disney

Trail's End Restaurant - Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground

Grand Floridian Cafe - Grand Floridian

Olivia's Cafe - Old Key West

Kona Cafe - Polynesian
Kona Island Sushi Bar - Polynesian
Ohana's Best Friends Breakfast featuring Lilo and Stitch - Polynesian

Boatwright's Dining Hall - Port Orleans Riverside

The Turf Club Bar & Grill - Saratoga Springs Resort and Spa

Garden Grove - Swan
Kimonos - Swan

Whispering Canyon Cafe - Wilderness Lodge

Captain's Grille - Yacht Club Resort

I'd say that most of these are good bets for finding something you like for less than, at most, $25 per entree. As always, check out the menus on AllEars and see if any of them are up your alley, price and selection-wise. From that list, I can say that I personally enjoy Grand Floridian Cafe, Raglan Road and Big River Grille quite a bit and that you should be able to find good items within your budget at each. I won't presume to think that these are a fit for you, though. Just throwing in my two cents.

Thanks everyone. After a lot of searching, I'm considering Kona Cafe and Wolfgang Puck Cafe. Unforunately, there are no ADR's available for either. I also can't get a res. for Cape May Cafe. Not sure what to do now. This is a last minute trip...

How about Wolfgang Puck Express in the DTD Marketplace. Kind of a cross between TS and CS.

Many folks do not seem to like it too much, but we liked Big River Grille and Brewing Works when we were there. Of course, we went for the beer. The food was suprisingly good too.

I'd recommend Sanaa at Kidani Village. Most of the entrees are in the high teens, and the food is really excellent. Plus it's a fun place to go in a gorgeous setting.
And it's pretty easy to get an ADR for, so this might be a good choice for you.

Not sure what dates you are looking at but I just cancelled a Kona ressie last night for 31st August at 7.15 pm.
