Please critique my proposed ADR's

[Mousemommy1]

We are going in July, staying 10 nights at Beach Club (alot of our ADR's are centered around our resort location )
Our 180 day mark is coming up and here is our proposed list of meals
Kouzzina- dinner
Teppan Edo- dinner
O'hana- my birthdaydinner
Cape May Cafe - dinner and breakfast (separate days)
Le Cellier- a family favorite- will do lunch
Biergarten- another family fave- will do dinner
*****
My one sticky point is whether to do Tusker House Lunch at AK, or to just go to Captains Grille at YC for one of our meals...I've heard some negative reviews about Tusker House...is the food good? Oh, and Beaches and Cream or ESPN Club for one night???
*****
We have never done Kouzzina, Teppan Edo, O'Hana, or Cape May Cafe - those will all be firsts!!!

We are also going to do our anniversary dinner at Shula's!!!! Very excited about that!!!

Thoughts???

Instead of Tusker House, maybe look at Boma. Walking around AKL after dinner is always nice.

ESPN club is pretty good and easier to get in than Beaches and Cream because of the size. If you really like steak the Yachtsman steakhouse is excellent, pricey but excellent.

I am so not an Ohana fan...but would suggest Flying Fish (on the Boardwalk) for a fantastic birthday meal. Happy planning

Everything looks great. I would suggest Boma as well... we went there on our last trip & loved it so much, I made a ressie for our next trip.

Thanks guys!!!! We debated between Shula's and Yachtsmen but it came down to the menu...and we liked Shula's better...plus we are paying out of pocket for that meal and Shula's isn't on the DDP so that works out...I would love to try Boma..but that day will be a lunch meal...does Boma do lunch??? We plan on staying at AKL on our next trip after this one...so we'll get to Boma someday!

No princess meals for your girls?

We ate at Tusker House for breakfast and didn't enjoy it much at all.

Not this time....we've done CRT twice and they didn't want to do it again...and the Akershus menu doesn't really appeal to us.

Captain's Grille Dinner

or run into Epcot for Via Napoli!!

I think we're going to do Captains Grill

I don't know how old your kids are but one of the best character interactions that we have had has been at the Garden Grill. We actually love the food too. The salad is just fantastic. Have fun planning!

I really like Tusker House but Boma is great, too. Your choices look good and I hope you enjoy yourselves.

Kouzzina- dinner I haven't been here yet, but it is on my list of restaurants to try. I have heard that the Kouzzina sampler for 2 and the greek donuts are wonderful.
Teppan Edo- dinner We had a wonderful dinner here. Great food, service, nice atmosphere. No negatives at all. The chocolate ginger cake, which didn't sound like much from the description on the menu, was a lovely surprise. Delicious!
O'hana- my birthday dinner Love this place, especially the lapu lapus, potstickers, and bread pudding.
Cape May Cafe - dinner and breakfast (separate days) Done both. Like them very much! Our favorites: breakfast-Mickey waffles, dinner-mussels and crab legs
Le Cellier- a family favorite- will do lunch Another great choice. The cheddar cheese soup that everyone raves about is not one of my personal favorites, but the chicken & chipotle sausage appetizer is! I also love the mushroom fillet.
Biergarten- another family fave- will do dinner. Very enjoyable entertainment and food. I love the fresh basil and tomato salad and am trying to make it at home as well as they do at the restaurant.

My one sticky point is whether to do Tusker House Lunch at AK, or to just go to Captains Grille at YC for one of our meals...I've heard some negative reviews about Tusker House...is the food good? Don't know about Tusker, but my parents-in-law went to Capt's Grille 3 times on their last vacation they like it so much. Oh, and Beaches and Cream or ESPN Club for one night??? I like them both! If you are interested in watching a game during dinner, go to ESPN. Beaches and Cream has a great burgers and ice cream desserts, though.
