Boathouse
We headed to Disney Springs a little before 4PM for our 5PM Reservation. We had awesome luck with the buses and were there a little after 4:15PM. I avoided impulse art buying again (this time it was only $150) and only picked up some Bath Bombs from Basin for enjoyment after the 10K and Half. We got to the Boathouse a few minutes early and were immediately seated deep into the restaurant!
It wasn’t long before the waitress had us some water and awesome rolls! These parker house rolls are addicting! We both totally ate 3.5 rolls during the course of this meal. We don’t feel bad about it either as they are that good, especially with a little bit of the butter all melty inside.

Our waitress returned and took our full order. My husband’s soda and my whiskey cocktail were quickly served! It always is a sign to me of a restaurant that respects cocktails to serve Whiskey cocktails with an ice ball. It was perfectly strong and a great drink for my one drink of the day (my rule for running trips)
Bradford - 4 Roses Whiskey with spiced ginger ale
I got something different for my appetizer this time around and had a garden salad. The herb vinaigrette was a nice flavor for the mostly iceberg lettuce (thats not mixed greens) but at least I got some vegetables in my diet for dinner! That is what I was wanting to accomplish.
Garden Salad - Small - Mixed Greens, Seasonal Vegetables, Herb Vinaigrette
My husband ordered a side dish as his main appetizer. He enjoyed the mac n’ cheese. He said it wasn’t extremely cheesy in taste and felt more gourmet. That didn’t stop him from pretty much finishing it!

Each time I’ve gone to Boathouse, I’ve ordered the same entree. I’m ok with that as it is that good. They know how to take care of their steaks here! Cooked to a perfect medium rare with a fresh béarnaise makes for a great dinner! So tender and flavorful!

My husband went with a large caesar salad. (Yes, Mr. Vegetarian realizes there are anchovies mushed up with egg, parmesan, and lemon into a traditional caesar dressing but apparently “That doesn’t count”) He really likes it here! He could only handle about half though after having had that huge pasta dish for his appetizer.

These poor fries didn’t get enough attention from either of us during this dinner. They are totally fresh cut and perfectly fried with just the right amount of salt on them. The handful I ate I loved. They came back to the room with us for my husband to eat at a later date. Most likely, his dinner on Sunday after we get home from Disney.

My husband was too full for dessert. I wasn’t but I took mine to-go! It was a nice root beer float that I enjoyed on our way towards the bus to the resort!

Boathouse continues to be our new favorite among Disney!
