We just got back from DW. We went to Narcoossee's on Saturday October 20th for a 7:40 reservation. When we got there I asked for a window table. They seated us by a window at 8:05. Not bad at all considering I hadn't previously requested a window!

It was PHENOMENAL- perhaps one of the best meals/experiences, I've ever had- and my entire family agreed. We are certainly not shy from eating at fancy restaurants or expensive ones so we had high expectations.

We arrived, sat at the bar for 25 minutes for our table. Upon ordering wine at the bar, the man informed us that he is their sommelier and allowed us to actually TASTE the wines before buying a glass. I'm not talking about them pouring a 1/2 ounce and letting you sniff/taste and then filling it, I'm talking he pulled out multiple glasses and poured us ones for us to try and pick from! Just amazing!

We got to our table- we ordered calamari, mussels, caesar salads, and crab cakes- ALL were great. The caesar was one of the best I've had and I love caesar salads.

We all went with either the filet or the filet/tail combo. Once again- amazing- the potatoes were so good I'm gonna try and find the recipe!

Wishes- a lot of people went onto the balcony including us, but they did turn down the lights and pipe in the music which was a nice touch. I got teary eyed at Wishes. I was standing out on the veranda of the restaurant with my family and just started to think about how truly lucky we are, how we have already had SO many wishes granted in our lives. Just truly magical.

It was 6 adults and 1 child. The wine was free flowing- and we were a boysterous group! :) Our waitress was always there to help us out, get what we wanted, she was very attentive and friendly.

The meal for the 7 of us, including drinks/tax/tip was $822 and my dad who paid the bill for all of us said it was 100% worth it! :) It was truly phenomenal. Granted it could have been a lot less but as I stated before- wine was flowing :)
 
excellent review!

we're looking forward to being at narcoosees next week!
 
So, since I plan to have Surf and Turf, I won'der what wine the Sommelier will pair it with? I link I'll have a glass of Cabernet and a second glass of Chardonnay. Seriously!
 
Can't wait to try this place next trip!!! I think its getting more and more popular now that people are posting such great reviews. I'm hoping to catch the fireworks too!
 

We just got back and ate at Narcoossee's on Sunday the 21st. I have nothing but good things to say about the food and service. We were on the dining plan, both of us had the comice pear and endive salad.. very good! I had the surf and turf.. yummy and DH had the filet. We also ate a the Flying Fish and Narcoossee's blew them away! :thumbsup2
 
I'm glad you had a wonderful time! Thanks for the review. Narcoossee's is our absolute favorite!!!! We always return! :goodvibes
 
What a great review. We are definetly putting that on our list now.
 
I went here for the lobster last year in September despite some mixed reviews on the boards here, and loved it! This is definately my favorite restaurant in WDW. I love the balcony and the views, the open kitchen, the wait staff is amazing as well. Its also amazing value for 2 TS creds. I can never afford to go the times we aren't on the dining plan.
 
Thank you for the great review! :) I am so glad that I switched my reservation from the Yachstsman Steakhouse to Narcoossee's. I think I made the right choice! I can't wait to try it in December! :)
 
We had been to Nacroosees twice (Mar 06 and Jan 07) on DDP - both meals are excellent! The server, Amer, was the best server we had in WDW ever :-)

I'd say Nacroosees is a must try - excellent food (we had lobster, crab cake, etc) & service, nice view of the Wishes - you don't really need to ask for Windows seat, since many people viewing from Balcony will block your view anyhow :P
 
I am happy to hear that you had a great time at Narcoossees. It is a favorite of ours. :goodvibes
 
Great review, enjoyed reading thru and remembering how much DW and I enjoyed eating there last year. It was absolutely the best meal ever.
thanks for posting your review. :thumbsup2
 
So glad you had a great evening at Narcoossee's. It was a favorite of ours way back when we were on our honeymoon. We really need to go again, but with the kids this time.

I get teary when I watch Wishes too. I think about the same things. And what a nice dad to pick up the bill.
 
We LOVED Narcoosees when we went in June, we are even going there again in December when we stay at the GF. I can't wait! The food, service, atmosphere..T-Riffic!
 
I really enjoyed reading your review, thanks for posting.
 
We also love Narcosee's. Matter of fact, on our next trip, DH wants to upgrade to the Deluxe DP, just so he can go to Narcosee's at least twice and try Jiko.
PS...our server for our recent trip was Lori, and she was great. In March '07, we had Amer, and he is a really awesome CM.
 
We ate there on 9/22 and it was, hands down, the best meal of the trip. I'm so glad others are on the wagon with me. This is a restaurant that we will eat at every trip we make to WDW.
