Narcosee's is best hands down in my opinion!

[Ddaba1]

Hi everyone. I've been visiting WDW for many years (1st time was in 1988). I have sampled all of the fine dining restaurants in WDW including Victoria and Albert's which was stupendous by the way. However, my favorite is Narcosee's. Leave your opinion on which one is your favorite if you wish!!

Narcoossee's is wonderful. We attend every trip . But it is one SIG on our list. Just OUR list, best, descending, and leaving out V&A which simply kills everyone else ....

1) TIE - California Grill, Contemporary and Shula's, Dolphin.
2) Citrico's Grand Floridian.
3) TIE - Narcoossee's Grand Floridian, Artist point, WL
4) Il Mulino, Swan
5) Everyone else.

Our current DUMP list -
Tony's
Le Cellier
Mr. Paul
Portabello (changing, we'll see)
Fulton's / Paddlefish (small portions due to shellfish cost, no upgrade options).

Unimpressed, over menu.... have not gone, won't go until MENU improves
Morrimito
Boathouse
STK

IMPORTANT mention - though we have not GONE there yet....
Bull and Bear (offsite). SERIOUSLY on our list.
Waiting on Edison - no data.


All personal opinion - I'm not necessarily right, no one else is necessarily wrong.

It's been decades since we've been to Narcoossee's, I just remember it being expensive. I think our current favorite is Citrico's.

I have never had a bad meal at Narcoosee's and also enjoyed Flying Fish and California Grill. Victoria and Albert's is on my bucket list, though I have eaten at Remy (sublime) on the Fantasy (I heard that V & A's Chef Scott Hunnel created the menu).

My wife loves California Grill! We went on the fantasy a few years ago and dined at Palo, I don't remember if we went to Remy but I heard it is great!

I love Narcossee's. It is a must dine every time.
I think my other top would be Yatchsmen and California Grill.
We are dining at Tiffins this trip and I can't wait to see how it stacks up.

Narcoossee's is always great. We are sure to dine there almost every trip, along with Citricio's. These two are at the top of our list for quality food, and great atmosphere. I have to say, we tried Tony's again this year, which almost always disappoints. We were pleasantly surprised! Being from NJ, I tried to keep my brother from ordering the spaghetti and meatballs, since we've experienced the dish in previous years. I was shocked to see that they actually fried their meatballs, and the tomato sauce was like a home cooked sauce. We are very picky about our Italian food, so I must say....it's definitely worth giving it a shot again.

1. Victoria & Albert
2. Jiko
3. Tiffins
4. Citricos
5. Morimoto Asia

Never eaten at Narcoosee's and never will - I'm allergic to seafood and it has a limited set of options for me. DH would like to but I can't even stand the smell of the place when we pass by. Too bad. It's a great location and I know he'd love the food.

Good choices! If you are allergic to sea food stay away by all means! Maybe DH can go by himself or with the kids if you have kids. We went to Morimoto last summer and liked it a lot!

No kids and neither of us want to eat on our own so he's out of luck there. However, he does indulge a lot at V&As including adding the caviar which he totally adores (they make me a separate menu without seafood) and at Morimoto he had the sushi and some other seafood dish so it's not like he doesn't get any. We usually stay 8-10 days so these are our top 5 but by no means our only favourites. I've been known to talk him into an extra day just to give us the opportunity to eat at one more place because I can't decide what to cut off my list. The addition of new restaurants at Disney Springs is creating problems for me. So many places to eat, so little time!

V&As followed by Jiko. Also enjoy the Swan and Dolphin restaurants, and a lot of the newer offerings at Disney Springs.

Neither DH nor I like Narcoossee's, and I am not a fan of Cali Grill.

My wife loves Cali Grill, and to me it is way overrated.

Agreed so many places to eat and so little time LOL

Great list! We went to Le Cellier last year and loved it! My son is on the spectrum and he broke a glass and the staff didn't even flinch and understood completely! I didn't like Fulton's that much can't remember why.

We like Citrico's too even though we never really had the entrees just appetizers and drinks. The athmosphere is very nice there and then we usually hang around at the gorgeous lobby of the Grand!

I concur, we have never had a bad meal at Narcosee's! We went to V&A's for our anniversary about three years ago and it was quite memorable but very expensive. We dined in the Queen Victoria Room. I highly recommend it. The wine flight is a must but beware, it is a 3 hour meal and with each entrée they bring a different wine. It was too much for us and some of the wine went untouched. Bill ran around $800+ for two people. But, it was a great experience and I would do it again budget permitting LOL

Never been to Tiffins let us know how you like it! I'm glad you share my love for Narcosee's!

I agree Narcosee's is expensive but can't beat that view with the exception of maybe Cali Grill's view. We like Citrico's also. Thanks for your reply!

Many years ago my husband went to pick up his water glass at Citricos, and the entire bowl of the glass broke off from the stem and fell on the table and rolled around between our plates! I was mortified, but our waiter swooped right in like a ninja and cleaned it all up, and then brought DH a new glass with a Mickey straw!!!!

Hahaha great story! It seems like the bowl was defective to begin with so it wasn't your husband's fault.
