Kona's, Ragland Road, France or Italy

[bluslag]

Got all my reservations set but need one last one for our last night. Right now have Kona;s booked for this night but think I might change. We have not been to any of these restaurants and just wanted to know if anyone had any input. Thanks for any help.

I just returned yesterday and ate had lunch at Ragland Road on Sunday. I was very disappointed in the food and service. The calamari appetizer consisted of very little calamari and more vegetables. My fish and chips platter was not crispy and tasteless. You can get a better meal at the Rose and Crown(England) in Epcot!! It took awhile to get our entrees!! I will not be eating at the Ragland Road again. However, I do reccomend England as a replacement.

We really enjoyed Raglan when we were there in Nov - its our new favorite place. I did a review of it on the review boards also. Here it is:

My DH & I ate there Feb '07 for the first time. We loved the interior and the atmosphere. As with any restaurant, you want to order what they do best and are known for. We had the more traditional fare and quite enjoyed ourselves. We are going again during our Feb '08 trip. If you decide to go, try to get an ADR when they have the evening entertainment, traditional Irish music and dancers.
By the way we also have ADR's for the Rose & Crown, which is definately different, but a tradition for DH and I. We would not miss either one!

Of the listed choices, I would say Raglan Road as well.

We were there in September and we are returning this April and it is the only restaurant that we really wanted to repeat. It isn't that we disliked a lot of the others but I want to try some others, but my DH and I both really wanted to go back to Raglan Road. The music and dancing are great but even if you go earlier, the food is great and you can have beer flights or Celtic Sangria while you eat. I reviewed it too so you can click on the link below.

Good luck!

I loved Kona! I would just stick with Kona. It was one of the best meals we had. This one will be on our list next trip. I loved the steak teryaki and white chocolate cheesecake! Their sticky wings were wonderful too!

Chef's De France is my pick!

I had the same experience at RR - fish and chips that were undercooked/soggy, and barely lukewarm. Worst meal of my trip in October. Plus, it was extremely noisy - we couldn't hear each other talk at all.

Kona is one of my top three restaurants, hands down. Very consistently good, and lots of great menu choices. We always go there at least twice each trip (often more!).

(Just remember that dining experiences are kind of hit-or-miss - you get mixed reviews of just about every restaurant on WDW property. All restaurants can have bad nights -- but my philosophy is, if you see way more bad than good reviews, pick a different restaurant -- there are lots to choose from! My favorites are Le Cellier, California Grill, Sunshine Seasons, Fish and Chips window at Epcot, and Crystal Palace.)
