Suggestions for Dinner

[buddha112]

My DW and I are coming down for F&W in November. We want to try someplace new for dinner one night and looking for recommendations. We have narrowed it down to Boathouse, Big River Grille, or Blue Zoo in the Dolphin. We wanted to try Paddlefish but the reviews have been awful and I don't feel like wasting the money at this point. Any input is appreciated. Thanks

We ate at Boathouse and twice at Paddlefish in March and all three meals where very good.

Big River Grille is great for drinks, craft beer in particular, but for food, not so much.

The Boathouse sounds nice if you're planning to be at Disney Springs.

Blue Zoo is awesome if you don't mind the expense, and don't go by the menu on the Disney site to figure them out. You'll get more accurate info from the Swan and Dolphin website.

Have a great time wherever you decide.

Blue Zoo

BlueZoo or Boathouse are both very good. Personally did not like the beer nor the food at Big River Grill at all, and I have never been to Paddlefish, and have no interest in it.

I love the Big River Grille but it isnt a restaurant I would go out of my way to visit, I would not go to Blue Zoo as the menu is not to my liking. The only other restaurant I can reccomend is Ilmulinom I live in NYC and I can go anywhere for Italian but I won't in DISNEY because the food is just amazing

I agree with the others - Big River Grill's food is mediocre at best!

We love both the Boathouse and bluezoo. The Boathouse is a little livelier. If you want something a bit quieter and more romantic, I would probably go bluezoo.

I also think Big River Grill falls in a very different category as Boathouse and Blue Zoo are definitely signature dining establishments while Big River is more like ESPN without all the tv's. We love the Boathouse because it does have a more relaxed/casual atmosphere but the food is very good. I would consider Blue Zoo even one more step up from The Boathouse in atmosphere and price.

We decided on the Boathouse.
