We were going to do Le Cellier on our last night in December but we went on our most recent trip and were really disappointed. Any recommendations for a different restaurant? We usually try to do something that's more "signature" on our last night of a long trip.

I love Jiko. The filet with the mac and cheese is always great.
Victoria and Albert's if you are willing to pay the price and don't plan on bringing young kids. And have 3-4 hours to spend on a meal.
There's also California Grill, where I've never had a bad meal.
Yachstman is where I've had the best steak, and I like the relaxed vibe there.
Those are my favorite signature places for a special meal.

We're actually doing Victoria and Albert's earlier in the trip. We've never been and it is a milestone anniversary for my parents. We're super excited for it!

I was looking at Jiko so your endorsement might push us over the fence on that one! We were also considering Yachtsman so glad to hear they're both great!
 

We finally ate at Yachtsman Steakhouse after not eating there for several years. It was so good. We'd go back again.
 
I've always been blown away by my meals Tiffins so that would be my choice. We also really enjoyed California Grill if you are looking for something outside the parks.

We were very disappointed in Jiko and Yachtsman on our last visit and felt the food quality and service both had gone very downhill, but you know how it is with Disney restaurants: great one day, terrible the next.

Not a signature, but we thought Artist Point had very nice food and a really beautiful setting and unique character interactions, if that is something you might enjoy.

That's what we think happened with Le Cellier. We also did Artist Point on the last trip and didn't have the greatest experience. But they seemed to be having a rough night.
 
We have had a “last-night” dinner at Citricos many times and felt that the overall ambience was really nice and fit what we wanted out of our last meal.
 
If you are going to be in EP area, I would also consider Flying Fish on the Boardwalk or the new Takumi-Tei in the Japan pavilion. Both have great food and the experience at Takumi-Tei is very special, IMHO.
 
For something different, drive to Portofino Bay Hotel and dine at BiCE. Upscale Italian and well worth the short drive. Excellent service, lovely setting/ambiance, superb menu, and topnotch wine list. Tops any Italian place at Disney and better than most other restaurants at Disney, as well.

We're staying at BW but unfortunately won't be doing Flying Fish (seafood allergy) and there's not enough on the menu for us to feel comfortable eating there. I'll look at Takumi-Tei though.

The group doesn't want to venture off property but I'll keep that in mind for when it's just DH and I.
 
If you are at EPCOT, Monsieur Paul is very good.
Il Mulino at the Swan is another favorite.
Jiko is a favorite.
California Grill or Citricos are other options.

Understood. In that case, I'd likely go with Jiko, Tiffin's (if you want to be in a park), Morimoto Asia, or as another suggested, Il Mulino which, while not as good as BiCE, is a fine choice. CA Grill is a good choice, too, but a bit more expensive than the others and quite noisy, of course. Have fun!
 
M. Paul lately has been our choice for a final in-park meal. Great food, impeccable service, calm atmosphere.

We also love Flying Fish, Yachtsman and Bluezoo in the Boardwalk area, all of which are easy to access from Epcot or Hollywood Studios.
 
Since you are at Boardwalk, I recommend the walk over to Yachtsman or Shulas. Both are nice atmospheres for dining with parents;
For something a little more exciting and exotic, I recommend the drive over to AKL and either Jiko or Sanaa followed by exploration of the AKL areas.
Both are great ways to end a trip, without the chaos and congestion of being in a park.

Tried to book Yachtsman this morning and they were all booked up. And currently circulating the Jiko menu to see if everyone else will give it a chance. We ate at Sanaa on our most recent trip and LOVED it! But my sister can be picky so we'll see if she finds something to eat.
