DH and I are going to DLR for our 10th anniversary, and DD(she will be 8 at that point) will be with us.

Any recommendations for a nice dinner?
 
It depends on what you are looking for in a meal.

If it is ambiance then absolutely go for Blue Bayou, get there early and be willing to wait for a waterside table.

If you are foodies and cost is not an issue, then I would go to Napa Rose and sit at the chef's table.

If you want something between those two, then I would go to Carthay Circle.

DH and I went to DL for our honeymoon and we are about to go back to celebrate our 15th anniversary. We really wanted to go to NR but it's closed for renos so we are going back to Steakhouse 55 which is where we went on our last night of our honeymoon! :lovestruc

Burgers at Tomorrowland Terrace?

No but seriously: Blue Bayou has a wonderful atmosphere if you get the right seat (near the water, mention your anniversary), and might be fun for your daughter too. The food is good, probably overpriced for the quality, but pretty good.

Other than that I think that it depends on what you are looking for: atmosphere vs. food (not that you can't have both), but not too stuffy for DD.

If you like a good steak you might try Steakhouse 55. Not sure how it is for kiddos though.

Napa Rose and Carthay Circle are (IMO) the creme de la creme of DLR restaurants. Both are delicious, and both can be a little pricey, but are beautiful. For a 10th wedding anniversary these are probably your two best bets, but take a look at the menus.

Note that at Carthay Circle you can also get dining packages (app, entree, dessert) that will also get you vouchers for preferred, reserved seating for the WOC show, if you're into that. Dinner and dessert followed by WOC could be pretty nice...
 

We went to napa rose for our first anniversary. It was fantastic. Carthay Circle would be a great second choice.
 
My hubby & I go to Napa Rose every year for our anniversary. This past year was the first time taking our little one (6 months at the time). Was a bit hectic, but was great as usual!

We did let them know that we weren't looking for a leisurely dinner so they were pretty good about bringing out the next course right after the last was done. Instead of the usual break between. Every time we go we see kids there - love that Disney is for families!
 
Napa Rose and Carthay Circle are both excellent choices. Steakhouse 55... not so much. Some people love it, but other's (myself included) have been disappointed at the quality to price ratio.
 
DH and I will celebrate our 17th anniversary (which is tomorrow) while we're at DL later this month. Carthay Circle came very recommended and also had an appealing menu.
 
Might I recommend a trip over to Roy's at the Gardenwalk? I've been to Roy's in Vegas and Maui and I have to say that they are always great - great food, great service, and accommodating of young and old.

I wholeheartedly disagree!

Steakhouse 55 knocked our socks off this year when we went to celebrate our 5th wedding anniversary.

What did you order?!
 
We went to Napa Rose last weekend for our Anniversary, right before they closed for refurb. We had never been before and probably had too high of expectations. The food was good, the service was poor, the restaurant is LOUD, couldn't even really have a conversation. I highly doubt we ever go back, as we just did not feel it was worth it.

Also, if you are looking for Romantic, Napa Rose is not the place for that, IMHO.

Steakhouse 55 has great food and the ambiance is also great.

Just my 2 cents.

Exactly this! :thumbsup2
 
Another vote for Napa Rose! If you can swing it, go for the Chef's Counter there. A really spectacular meal.

Thanks for the break-downs! We are not foodies... just enjoy a nice place. I will check out the menus and go from there. Of course, Club33 would have been my preference, but can't see that happening. :(
 
Would do Carthay or Steakhouse 55 at the DLH.

These are my thoughts for our 1st anniversary dinner in Nov.

If we got the latest dinner sitting at Carthay Circle, would we be rushed?

Would the last sitting be a couple of hours before park closing or would there be a chance the park would be just closing as we finished our dinner?
 
Thanks for the recommendations, everyone! We decided on Steakhouse 55 for our anniversary dinner. Also in the mix during our trip, we picked a lunch at Blue Bayou and a breakfast at Storytellers.

Good choices! You will enjoy all of those!!
Go early to Blue Bayou and ask for a waterside table. They will tell you there will be a longer wait but it is worth it!! (and most times not as long as they say).
Have a great time!:yay:
