I'm planning a trip for myself and my best friend and this is her first time going. We'll be there for nine days so we'll have plenty of oppurtunities to eat at some good restaraunts. Every time I go I like to try new places so I don't know how every single one of these will be. I'm hoping to try these:
(If there's a :) it means i've eaten there already)

Yak and Yeti :)
Tusker House
Kimonos
Teppan Edo :)
California Grill
Flying Fish
Jikos
Boma :)
Beaches and Cream
Le Cellier
Kona café :)
Tokyo dining
Artist Point
Narcoosees
Earl of Sandwhich
Wolfgang Puck Express

I wasn't sure about Artist Point because I haven't heard much and I know Narcoosees is a bit pricey but it might be worth it. Most of these restaraunts will be for dinner with the exception of Kona. Also, we're not interested in character dining. We're also looking for some good breakfast places.

Please let me know if you think these are good choices and please give me suggestions! If we're missing something good please tell me!
 
Oh Jiko, definately try there, we were at WDW for 21 nights so we did a lot of dining. We ate at Jiko twice as the food was just so good we had the best meals of our trip there and Yak and Yeti. Yak and Yeti was great too but you have already eaten there before so you will know that. As for the others, We only ate at Tusker House for breakfast, it was good, the food served on the buffet was very simlar (well most of it was the same) as at the Boma breakfast.
 
Thank you! I'll definately keep those then. I'm dreaming about the Pineapple Cream Cheese wantons and the dum sum basket from Yak and Yeti!
 
I've eaten at all of these and the only one I refuse to eat at again is Le Cellier. However, I'm in the minority on that one. Also, I'm not a huge fan of Narcoosees. For the money, this place is pretty noisy and not as upscale as the other signatures. The setting on the water is gorgeous and if you get lucky and dine on a night where the place isn't packed and noisy, it can be nice. Flying Fish has much better fish dishes and a more sophisticated feel to it.

My fav on your list is Jiko. Looks like you are putting plenty of thought into it and your friend should really appreciate it. Have a good time.
 

DBF and I ate at Artist Point for our anniversary and we loved it. It was very empty that night. The food was very good. He had the salmon which he loved and I had the Buffalo which was interesting, but not in a bad way.
 
Are you staying at a Disney resort and buying theme park tickets? If so are you on the Disney Dining Plan? You mentioned the expense of some places, but if you're on the DP it wouldn't matter. You just pay the nightly fee and you get a TS, CS and snack credit for each night you stay. You're only extra would be for appetizers, lcoholic drinks and tips. If its in your budget the DP makes it a much less stressful trip.

I'll take your word for Narcoosees. I wasn't really sure about that one. I've heard mixed reviews on Le Cellier and I think I won't make an ADR for that one and if we feel like it we may just walk up. I'm really excited for Jiko! Thanks for the suggestions :)

I've seen very fews reviews about it but they were all good. It sounds like a nice quiet place to relax. Thanks for posting.

We're staying at the POP and the tickets came included in the new package. The thing about the DDP is that most of our restaraunts are TS. We wouldn't really use the snacks and maybe one or two quickservice so the plan wouldn't really save us anything.
 
Earl of Sandwich was goos, Le cellier is a must for us.

I see you don't have Ohanas....go there!

Hey Lynn! I'm pretty sure we'll stop by Le Cellier just because i've heard such awesome things about their pretzel bread ;)

I've been debating about ohanas because i've never done the "family style" eating and i'm not 100% sure how it works. But I love the Poly so that might be a good option for us!
