Narcoossee's or Cali Grill???? Help Please!

[LOVEMY3KIDDOS]

We are going to go to one 2TS restaurant during our stay for our anniversary. We have it narrowed down to Narcoossees or California Grill. I am just looking for some opinions on either / both to help me break the tie. We all agree that the food sounds good at both. I am sort of leaning towards Cali for the simple fact that we can get some nice shots of MK from the observation deck. But, we will be there in Dec when it gets dark earlier, so what are the chances of getting out there before dark? And, if Narcoossees is THAT good, do we just give up the view and go there? Are there any special views from Narcoossees? Please, help make up our minds so we can decide and get ready to make adr's in a few weeks! Thanks

Or...is there anything else we should be considering? I don't want to go for one and miss out on something really great!!

I would go with Cali Grill, the menu looks a little more adventerous, the view of the MK from the observation deck seems to be unbeatable. We are doing a bunch of Signature dinners planned for our December trip and are currently trying to decide between eating at Narcoossee's or Yachtsman---but Cali Grill is a definite.

Good luck---I'm sure you will enjoy your dinner no matter which you choose!

California Grill along with Jiko are our two favorite places to dine at WDW.

I love them both. You can't go wrong with either of them. The view of the Magic Kingdom is great from Cali Grill. But you can also get a pretty good view of the fireworks with music from Narcoosee's.

The food is very good at both.

I think the food is better at CG. Narcoosees is like going to Red Lobster.

Narcoossee's was fab! They view was just beautiful and it's very classy. The outside desk is lovely too. The seafod is better than the chicken though We would recommend it!

I'm sorry but Narcoossee's is a big step above red lobster. I have had many meals at both and they are both very nice for different reasons.

I will agree Narcoossee's may not feel as fancy inside but IMO CG is now suffering from everyone wanting to watch Wishes vs. having a nice dinner.

I'd put both above YSH. To me while nice it's a aveage steak house and not the best steak I've had at WDW.

I'd go with CG and ask to sit in the wine room in the back, it's a little quiter and you can have a nice view towards Epcot and can then go outside to see Wishes if you desire.

So, I was thinking maybe Narcoossee's until I looked at all these responses and it seems that Cali Grill is the fan fav!! I guess it is leading at the moment with the added bonus of the great views!!!!
