Restaurant between airport & DisneyWorld

[Chris M]

I am flying in next week around 8pm.....after picking up my rental car I would like to get a quick but decent meal before checking into the Wilderness Lodge. Can you recommend a place to stop that is on the route from the airport.

If you are going on 417 (the Greenway)... let's see I used to live at these exits (8 years ago!) and there are tons of new places....

Exit at Orange Blossom Trail, or next one, John Young Parkway (maybe 15 minutes from airport?). There is a Ruby Tuesday's, Donato's pizza, I think a Steak n Shake maybe?? And tons of new stuff... I swear every time we go back there are so many new places popping up. I can't think of what else, but lots.

Also if you get closer to Disney you could go to the Crossroads plaza across from DTD, there are lots of restaurants there too.

Maybe someone else knows where I'm talking about and can think of more restaurants there??

If you take the Beeline Expressway over to the 4, and then down to WDW - get off at the first WDW exit and go to Crossroads. There's a Friday's, Perkins, Uno Pizza, Hooters, Olive Garden (just north of Crossroads)... just south of the 4, is a steak house of some kind, Chik-Fil-A, and another casual service restaurant - but the name escapes me right now. There are other fast food places too if you end up deciding you don't want to go in and sit down.
