Offsite Suggestions?

[poppop]

I need suggestions for any good, moderately priced off-site restaurants. Mexican? Seafood? Others?

Pebbles is our absolute favorite off-site restaurant. It's in the Crossroads shopping center, really close to WDW. They have amazing seafood and other stuff - lots of unusual items and flavors. The prices are reasonable, the atmosphere is nice, and the food is out of this world!

Another vote for Pebbles.

Also Macaroni Grill
Chili's
Carabas

They all take call ahead seating reservations so you don't have to wait as long for a table.

I second Macaroni Grill - it's always excellent.

Joe's Crab Shack is fun, noisy, but fun.

There is a wonderful Indian Restaurant in the K-Mart plaza on Turkey Lake. Beautifully prepared authentic Indian food.

There is a Cuban Restaurant just beyond the Olive Garden at Palm Parkway and 535.

Bahama Breeze is at 525 and Vine as is a Long Horn and Landry's.

If you want a good selection of nice restaurants just a little bit away from the Disney area take Hotel Blvd. to Palm Parkway (a right) which becomes Turkey Lake. At the intersection of Turkey Lake and Sandlake take a left. Just a ways down the road will be several very nice selections, the Melting Pot, Salvatore's, Sushi, Ruth Chris', etc. It's in the Dr. Phillips area. (If you continue down to the next intersection there is a Too Jays, etc.).

Just a little drive from the immediate area will provide you with a wealth of choices that are usually much more reasonably priced with excellent food quality.

Any More?

Shells Seafood (http://www.shellsseafood.com/index.html) on 192 is great! It's a bit of a drive, though.

I am also partial to the NY China Buffet
(http://www.floridawebinfo.com/nychinabuffet/) on 535. They have good chinese food plus all you can eat (very good!) crab legs at dinner for $11.95. You can usually find a coupon for $$ off in any of the local coupon books for this place too!

We like the burgers Jungle Jims at Crossroads, and there's a coupon for a fee appetizer with any 2 entrees and a link to their menu at : http://www.couponsalacarte.com/orlando/coupons/jung062100.htm

Bahama Breeze. There are 2 in the area. It is the only off site restaurant we go to and we go at least once every trip. You can get whole and half portions and I can never finish the half portion. Even my very picky MIL liked this restaurant. There is quite a variety of entrees on the menu and the drink menu is huge.

Chevys at the Crossroads if very good Mexican. They have a nice variety of margaritas.

Jungle Jims and Bahama Breeze would be our choices. Both are excellent.

Enjoy!

Where is Bahama Breeze located?

 

[jx3smom]

There are two. One is on State Road 535 pretty close to Down Town Disney and the other is on International Drive near the convention center. If going on a weekend go early, it is a local favorite, also.

Another vote for Chevy's. Tasty food, good portions, reasonable prices.

Columbia Restaurant at Celebration has great latin american cuisine.
