Nine Dragons or Chefs de France?

[mama2cli]

I'm trying to iron out ADRs for our Sping Break trip.
Which would you do for lunch? Nine Dragons or Chefs de France?
It is for 2 adults with little preference between the two types of foods, if it matters. We have also reserved at Coral Reef and Le Cellier for other Epcot meals.
Thanks for the advice!

I would go with nine dragons, the food is yummy and good service. The one time we tried Le Chefs the service was "too authentic french" if you know what I mean and the food meh. I'll never go back there again.

We have always had pleasant experiences at Le Chef's with the service, and their french onion soup, mac and cheese, sandwiches, and other items have been really good food. Plus if you are doing lunch you might see Remy come out, or if you have a window seat you can see some of the French clowning acts outside. Nine Dragons has gotten better recently, and I think their food is consistent and good, but good in the "best local take out served on a plate with 75% increase in price" sort of way. We ate there for dinner two weeks ago and we definitely liked the food, but I would personally choose Le Chef's.

I was at both this past summer and personally I would go with Nine Dragons if you are looking for a variety in your dinning selection. You might find Les Chefs to be a bit more of the same when considering your other ADR's.

For Dinner I would without a doubt pick Chef's. We have never been disappointed there. They are even great with little ones. We also love the food choices. For lunch I would more than likely go with Nine Dragons. We have enjoyed the quiet and dinning there for a lovely lunch and time to relax. My boys actually are big fans.

Had good meals at both, but would pick Nine Dragons - we had a brill meal there last year - good food and excellent service!

None of us really cared for Nine Dragons, and we all would definitely pick Le Chefs. We have had great meals there and I think the short ribs are my favorite meal in Epcot!

I would pick Nine Dragons, we've dined there twice and it was great both times. Chefs, on the other hand, was bad the one and only time we ate there. The service was poor, drinks weren't refilled and the french onion soup was so hot I had to wait for dessert until it cooled down.

I have always avoided 9 Dragons because of the reviews. Maybe someday I'll try it.

I love Chefs de France, I think it's the best restaurant in Epcot.

We liked nine dragons last year. The food was good and the service was attentive and friendly. It wasn't gourmet asian food, but it certainly wasn't take out from your corner chinese restaurant. We're foodies, and it was as good as PF Changs, if not better. Fresh and nicely prepared, not greasy and covered in sauces like some poor quality chinese food.

We had a lovely experience at Nine Dragons last week. Le Chefs, was dismal. Worst food and worst service of the trip. Our food was cold and when we complained we were treated badly by the manager, basically called us liars. At least Le Chefs is authentic, lol, but for a nice friendly and tasty meal, I say Nine Dragons.

If you enjoy Chinese food, and have a good Chinese restaurant in your home town, then I would definitely not go to Nine Dragons. JMHO...

We live in an extremely rural area, but have a good Chinese restaurant and Nine Dragons is not remotely a good Chinese restaurant, UNLESS you want lots of meat, no traditional veggies (for me a mark of good Chinese cuisine is a balance of meat and veggies in one dish, and authentic Chinese has much more veggies than meat) and bland flavors.

If you are a Meat, Meat, Meat kind of person, then you would enjoy Nine Dragons.
