*This is a Post I took from my Trip Report!*
My DH's family, both sides, are from Canada, so that's why I picked Le Cellier. Plus, DH loves steak, so I thought it would be a perfect choice!
I had never been to Canada at World Showcase and I couldn't believe how beautiful it was!
We were starving and ready to start eating! We checked in and they were impressed with our last name because DH's family is French Canadian. No, I don't have an ounce of Canadian in me!
Le Cellier was so neat inside! I loved the feel of the restaurant! It had a very rustic feel to it and the lighting was very low. I automatically loved the ambiance! There were also Christmas decorations hung everywhere on the walls, which made it even better! It was just perfect! 
We got seated in the back corner of the restaurant very close to a family with five children. We had one of those tables where I was seated on the booth and DH was on the other side in a chair. We were pretty crammed in there too!
I don't like feeling like I'm eating over people or they're eating over me, but we didn't have much of a choice. We could hear every table conversation! Our hostess that seated us at our table was a bit odd. She didn't really know how to talk to people at all, but I won't get into that! 
I looked over the menu real quick and wanted to get a special drink! I saw the Chocolate Raspberry Shake and I knew that would do the trick!
Our waitress first brought us an assortment of breadsticks, which are from different parts of Canada. The pretzel bread was the best! It was so good that we just had to order more!
The one thing I was really excited about was the Canadian Cheddar Cheese Soup and really wanted to try it, but I read on the menu that there was bacon in it.
I was really hoping they just sprinkled it on top, but that wasn't the case. I had to miss out on the soup and there was just one vegetarian option on the menu, so I guess that's what I was having for lunch! It was the Marinated Portabello Mushroom that was served with seared basmatic rice cakes, onion beer marmalade and finished with tomato jam. I have to explain what it is or it just looks nasty in the picture! I'm going to be honest, it was not that good and the portion was extremely small. I mean, it was a mushroom and the rice cake had a very odd texture to it. It was not worth $15.99 and I would never pay that much for this anywhere else, but Disney!
DH got the Grilled Angus Chuck Burger with fries. I was not impressed by the looks of it at all! It doesn't look like any thing too great to me! DH had a couple of fries before I took the picture and I do mean, just a couple!
Okay, so the lunch entrees were not impressing us at all. I was a bit disappointed, mainly, because I had heard so many great things about Le Cellier and read so many wonderful reviews about it on The DIS. Well, we are going to have to disagree. The food was all great, except for the main part of the meal, the main course!
We had to order desserts after the sorry excuses we had for our entrees! DH didn't even really want dessert, but I told him I was getting one! After I made my order, he decided to go ahead and order the Canadian Chocolate on Chocolate Whiskey Cake! DH sure does love his chocolate cake!
I went with the Creme Brulee Sampler, maple creme brulee with carmelized sugar, and Cinnamon whipped cream vanilla creme brulee with carmelized sugar and Vanilla whipped cream. I love Creme Brulee and really liked this dessert! I also really like the Chocolate Cake, of course, I had to try it too!
The yummy desserts did make up for entrees! I really loved the pretzel bread and the desserts! I doubt I will be returning because of the lack of vegetarian options and DH wasn't crazy about the options on the menu either. We enjoyed the atmosphere and we are glad we gave it a try!

They wouldn't make any thing special for me. My options were the Mushroom thing and that was it! I'm so glad I did get a milkshake, so I could atleast fill up on sweets! I don't know why DH didn't order a steak. He may not have liked the toppings or side. I didn't pay much attention to the meat selections, but he is picky! DH likes it plain, plain, and more plain!
