Hey guys!! I have not started my dining reviews yet from our past trip, but I have to post about The Wave. It seriously was one of the best meals I have ever had at Disney!! I think it should be a 2TS meal on the DDP. It's that good.:worship::worship: Can't wait to go back!

This is how it looks when you walk in.

We loved it as soon as we got in there. The people were so nice when we checked in. While we were waiting to be seated we chatted. Oh and the lounge in there is so cool!!

Our ressie was at six. This was a perfect time to go. It was so nice and quiet in there!

Our server came to our table, her name was Renee, said happy anniversary, and asked us if it was our first time there. We told her yes, and she told us about the restaurant. Oh and she also said that they give all their anniversary couples a glass of complimentary champagne. That is so nice.


She took our drink order next. I noticed smoothies on the menu , and asked her how they were. She said she doesn't like them, they are not like your typical smoothie place smoothies. She said that I could get a virgin daquiri. YUM that sounded good! Tim ordered a strawberry milkshake. These drinks are included in the DP. We also ordered our apps and entree.


It was very good. Sparkling, just like my favorite wine, Rosa Regale.
She offered to take our picture!!

Next came out our apps. Tim got the crab cake. He liked it a lot, and so did I. Very good. Tim's favorite crab cake in the world is at the Brown Derby though.

I ordered the roasted tomato soup!! OMG when I saw that it came with a mini grilled cheese, I freaked!! OMG too cute! That just won me over lol!

Oh and here is the bread, it's delicious. The butter they serve is sooo good. If you love salt you will like it. They top it with sea salt. OMG YUM lol.

Here were our drinks. Very good.

I ordered the filet!! Had it cooked medium. Let me tell you, I have never had a filet melt in my mouth before. This is the best I have ever had!! It was delicious. So were the mashed potatoes. They had celery in them, sounds weird, but it was sooo good. What a different flavor.

It also came with some sweet potatoes, and yams. OMG so good!!

Tim got the cinnamon rubbed pork loin. I tried it, it was delicious.

He loved it!! Just the smell of it was amazing.

The desserts there are cool. You get 3 mini sized desserts, so cute!

I had this one, had to look it up on allears.net
Creamy Indulgence - Cheesecake with Raspberry Coulis, Coconut Panna Cotta with Passion Fruit Drizzle, or Chocolate-Passion Fruit Mousse with Pecan-Olive Brittle

YUM!! I never ever eat cheesecake, this one was amazing!!!!!!!!! So good.

Tim had..Crispy and Crunchy - Vanilla-braised Pineapple Spears, Almond-Pineapple-Raisin "Baklava", or Zucchini-Carrot Cake with Vanilla Panna Cotta

Before we left, they gave us a card. So cute!

The Wave is a great place. We loved it, and we will be back!! Can't wait. You guys should really give it a try. Ask for Renee if you go!! She is awesome.
 
Crabcakes and mini grillcheese sandwiches? Sign me up! I'm hoping to get an ADR there for my upcoming trip. Thanks for posting the great pictures.:worship:
 
Yay... another review... I'm so excited!

We have reservations at the Wave too in July. I can't wait! Your dh's dessert looks yummy... Thanks for the jump start on your reviews. Waiting patiently for rest..
 
I changed our adr from Kona's (after reading your review in your trip report) to the Wave. How fun to see your pictures again in this post. I can not wait to try the fillet and the Decadent Flavors for dessert. YUM!
 

im in - love your reports, we were at SSR same time as you last year and i thought if i seen you i would have to compliment you on your reports but we never bumped into you !!! ready and waiting for your report:banana:
 
The Wave looks fabulous! I wonder if the champagne Magicale. We had that at Disney's California Adventure and they mentioned it was exclusive to Disney Parks. It was delicious and much like Rosa Regale, like you mentioned.
 
I agree with you 100%! We ate there in March and fell in love with it! We also had the pork and the filet, both were melt in your mouth wonderful! I could not believe this place was just 1TS either!
 
After SEEING and reading your report, I promptly called DD and tried to switch my ressies' around. The system is down, told me to call back in an hr. I'm on the edge of my seat...I HOPE we can switch. This is TOTALLY something my DP will LOVE!

Thanks for the report!! ;)
 
JUST changed my ressies to THE WAVE...woot woot~!! Aug 4th, we'll be there, can't wait!!:woohoo:
 
Thanks for the great review and wonderful pictures:) We were debating between Kona and The Wave for our next trip and this totally tipped the scales! Can't wait to eat there:banana:
 
We loved the Wave last September -- yummy food, and loved the decor in there too.

But, please don't give them any ideas...shhh! No talk of 2 TS!!! Don't want to wreck such a treasure!
 
We chose The Wave for one of our September Anniversary trip's TS restaurants based on the menu we saw on allearsnet and this TR makes me so glad we did! Rosa Regale is one of my all time favorite wines and I'm so excited to see it available there. Thanks for a great review and Happy Anniversary!!!
 
ohhhh everything looks AMAZING! especially the tomato soup and mini grilled cheese!!! I soo wish my mom liked SOMETHING on the menu :( I'll have to wait until I go again in January with friends
 
Happy Anniversary!!

AND YES, The Wave has become a "must-do" on our list as well. LOVE LOVE the arctic char with the edamame stew. Been lucky that they've had it the times we've gone. Their food is so fresh, service also great. Don't tell everyone as we don't want the "secret" to get out then it'll be hard to get an ADR!;):lmao:
 
We just got back from WDW and the Wave is by far the best meal we've had at Disney! We're DVC members and have been to WDW over 25 times. We had the filet and the pork also. Oh sooooo good! Make sure that you dine at this restaurant. Enjoy:love:
 
Thanks for the pics and review..my sister and I will be eating here the day we get in. It looks like it'll be an awesome way to start our trip!!:cool1:
 
Thank you for your review and lovely photos! I just made my ADR online and got the time that I wanted! Those drinks look awesome and I know my girls would inhale them as their meal alone! I wasn't so sure about this place, but after seeing your review, I am very excited to be trying this place on our last night!
