Narcoossees, Citricos, Cali Grill or Boathouse

[crb60]

Deciding on our final night dinner choice.

Narcoossees, Citricos, Cali Grill, or the Boathouse.

Where would you eat/have you eaten? Want to hear some good and bad.

Definitely steak or seafood people as you might tell..

First question is were will you be for the final night? I ask because three of your choices are on the monorail loop but the Boathouse is a distance away at Disney Springs. My husband and I enjoyed the Boathouse two weeks ago when we ate there but I wouldn't make a special trip over there on your last night at Disney. It was a nice relaxing meal on the water and my husband really enjoyed his Fillet sliders but again not a real wow meal.

We have eaten at both the Cali Grill and Narcoossees and really enjoyed both but on our last trip our first night meal was at Narcoossees. I enjoy Narcoossees a bit more because even though it is a signature place it doesn't seem to take it's self so seriously as the Cali does. Just a bit more relaxed feel. The steaks are wonderful and the lobster bisque is a favorite of mine and of course I just love the almond cheesecake. At Cali Grill if you love sushi and a bit fancier ambiance then this is the place to be. I had my first sushi at Cali and though I have had sushi at many other places that first one is what I always compare the others too. My husband likes the steaks ha has had at Narcoossees better than the ones at the Cali Grill. Be aware that at either place you will see guests dressed very nicely and guests in t shirts and looking like they just came from a long day at the parks (which they probably did).

Everyone raves about seeing the fireworks from the Cali but we feel we are cursed in that department. Our first visit the weather was really bad and due to the storms the fireworks were canceled and on our visit last year the fog rolled in and you couldn't see a thing out the windows. It was really strange to hear the bangs of fireworks but not be able to see a thing out the windows. The poor servers kept apologizing but you can't control mother nature!

So long story short I would pick Narcoossees with Cali a close second and the Boathouse only if you planned on being at Disney Springs that night anyway.

We enjoyed Narcoossees very much (food and cocktails) but my my kids like the fireworks and sushi at CG.

Thanks for your input guys! We actually don't have plans for our final day and night, so location really won't matter to us much. We were at the World for a week last September and were very planned out, and did alot of time inside the parks, so we're heading back to enjoy some time in the parks, but a lot of time relaxing, pool side, in restaurants, and enjoying beverages. We don't have children, so that's not too much of a concern.

We always try to hit one big blowout meal the final night, and did Yachtsman and Morrimotos in September, and have eaten at Le Cellier in years prior.

I was leaning towards Narcoossees or the Boathouse, but it sounds like Narcoossees is a real winner!

I've eaten at all of them and I would choose Boathouse. The food and service were fantastic. I've eaten at Narcoosee's twice and both times have been major, extraordinarily expensive, disappointing experiences. The last time we went, the waitress completely forgot about us and, after waiting 30 minutes after our apps, I finally flagged her down to see where our entrees were. She then ran back to the kitchen and immediately delivered stone cold steak and seafood. We sent it back only to have to wait another 30 minutes for our meal. Never, ever again.

I would choose Boathouse also. Love the atmosphere and the food was very good. Have eaten at Cali Grill and in my opinion really not worth the price. Citricos would be my second choice. Enjoy!!

I did not care for the Boathouse at all. In fact, no one in my 6 person party did. It wasn't bad, but it certainly didn't live up to the other Signatures we went to. My favorite is Artist Point, but given your 4, I would probably go with Narcoosee's.

I haven't eaten at Boathouse, but have eaten at the other three. I hated Cali Grill and thought Narcoossees was overrated. Though to be fair, I loved my side of spiffy mashed potatoes....We loved Citricos and will be going back this year.

We have eaten at the BostHouse twice now and loved it! We saved it for our "splurge" night and my spouse had the crab stuffed lobster and I had the filet Oscar. We split a wedge salad, which was one of the best I've had. I had the crab cakes on our first trip and loved those, too. Service was so good we requested the Manager to compliment our server(s).
Have eaten at Narcossees, Citricos and California Grille. I realize opinions differ but we feel all have become overpriced with mediocre food.
