Had a great week and wonderful time "indulging", here's our table service reviews, short and sweet as usual.....
Sunday-
Dinner-Captain's Grille
DH had pork chop (not sure of his side) he liked his allot, I had chicken breast and it was "OK". For dessert DH had their Boston Cream Pie dessert which he also liked. I'd eat here again for dinner, but it's not a "top of the list". This was our first time eating here for DINNER. Rate: B+
Monday
Breakfast-Fresh
Very nice buffet. I had an omelet and assorted pastries, DH had pancakes, bacon etc. We've eaten here before. It's not one of our top few, but it is a really nice breakfast. Rate: A
Dinner-Olivia's
We've eaten here for all meals and it's one of our favorites for all meals!!!
DH had the prime rib which is always delicious and much better than most of the "signature" restaurants. I tried the Penne Pasta with Sundried Tomatoes and Fresh Spinach. It was topped with Parmesan Regianno and was also delicious. The pina colada bread served with the meal is SO good!!! Rate: A++
Dessert: We picked up two pastries from the bakery in France---YUM!!! Rate: A++
Tuesday
Dinner-Grand Floridian Cafe
One of our not to be missed. I actually can't remember what we had here, but the food is always excellent and we always end the meal with our favorite "Chocolate Ganache Fondue" YUM!!! I DO remember that. I also love the breads they serve with the meal!!! Rate: A++
Wednesday
Breakfast-Captain's Grille
We've tried basically all the breakfast buffets at WDW and this is by far the best!!! You can order off the menu here also. The buffet has DELICIOUS blintzes, two kinds of eggs, pastry assortment, fruit assortment, bacon, sausage, DELICIOUS bread pudding, smoked salmon, cream cheese, I think also bagels. No characters here, but our choice for best breakfast!!! Rate: A+++
Dinner-Wolfgang Puck Cafe
This is one of our not to be missed. We each had our usual...DH-Macadamia Nut Crusted Chicken and I had the Pumpkin Ravioli with Chicken. I also had the Butternut Squash soup. It was all delicious as usual!!! Rate: A+++
Thursday
Dinner-Artist Point
Our top rated restaurant at WDW and it again did not disappoint. Excellent atmosphere, service and food. We both had our usual salmon, I had the portobella mushroom soup and we shared a berry cobbler. Rate:A++++
Friday
Dinner-House of Blues
This is our new restaurant for the trip and we really enjoyed it and will probably go here each trip. We loved the atmosphere and the sweet potato fries and banana bread pudding were delicious!!! We both thought the pork sandwich just "OK", but the rest was so good that we want to go back and see if we can find a good sandwich to go with the rest of the great meal. Rate: A+++
Saturday-Big River Grill and Brewing Works
This is one of our old standby's for a great hamburger, fries and beer when we get sick of all the rich food we've been eating. Delicious as usual. Rate: A++ (For anyone wishing to try this place, our other recommendation would be the Pecan Crusted Chicken, we tried the meatloaf and didn't like it. Mostly we go here when we want a nice big juicy burger)
Other Meals-
Most other meals whether they are breakfast, lunch or dinner we got at the Boardwalk Bakery. Don't overlook this place for delicious baked goods for breakfast and desserts. Also breakfast panini's. Twice during the week we had the fruit platter and ham and cheese sandwich. Delicious and fresh!!! You can get this cold or heated as a panini.
Well, I guess that's it. Great week!!!
