What are your favorite restaurants in Epcot and Why?

[mhmcduff]

Looking for suggestions- especially around Norway, Italy,Morroco,Canada, UK, China, Japan? Have been to Germany and Mexico and my opinon- would go back but not fight for an ADR for them. We are trying to wrap up our final ADRs and figure we will eat in Epcot two lunchs and at least one dinner- Thoughts?

Of all of those, I guess for me, I would say there are 3 there that great. 2 have good "experiences" if you time it right.

Japan: Both Toyko Dining and Tepan Edo have good food, not out of the ball park, but good satisfying food. However, if you play your cards right, and time your reservation and request Window seating you will have PERFECT view for Illuminations as you dine.

Same can be said for:

England:

The food here is very good. It used to OUTSTANDING but they have downsized the menu in recent years for whatever reason but it's always fresh and when in doubt the Fish and Chip are always PERFECT. But here again, time it right and get a balcony seat for Illuminations.

Then there is Canada:

MY HUSBAND LOVES the steak there. It's his Favorite world dinning. It's a Steakhouse, but's tried and true. To me it taste like every other disney menu out there, but he loves it.

I really like Morroco, but you have to be ready for Adventure. And it can be very hit or miss on quality and service, so I don't "recommend" it, but it's a great place to try.

Japan... Edo Teppan... Had dinner there last night and it was so good and so fun! We were there at 8:45 and left after Epcot had closed it was very cool.

 

[mhmcduff]

Teppan Edo ( or Edo Teppan) is the one with the entertaining chefs right? Tokyo Dining has what?

 

[slavike]

Check out the menu info, it's extremely helpful...wdwig.com or here.

Teppen Edo - basic Bennihan type stuff.

Toyko Dining -Sushi and Tempura Dinning (Or what I like to call Japanese Tapas).

Italy, the food is amazing and the restaurant is very pretty

Germany, the best for atmosphere, dancing and music. The food is super good too

Chefs de France. Wow the food was so great and if you get a table by the window it is super relaxing.

 

[Hopefully]

For 3 TS meals (2 lunches and 1 dinner) I would recommend:
Teppan Edo in Japan - we love the food and the experience here. It is great. The tables are for 8, so you may be combined with another party. This has been fine with us.
Restaurant Marrakesh - It is a beautiful restaurant with warm friendly servers and great food. It is a must for us on each trip. We also enjoy the Belly Dancer who entertains here.
We enjoy Le Cellier in Canada as well as the Rose & Crown in the UK

If you are looking for CS in WS we also love the Tangerine Cafe in Morocco. Their Sharma sandwiches are great.
Harry Ramsden's Fish & Chips in the UK. Great and sit in the area near the lake it is wonderful on a good day.
Sommerfest in Germany - Great Hot Dog on a Pretzel Bread roll and good cold beer
The San Angel Inn in Mexico is also really good.
As you can tell, we love to eat in WS
Have a Great Trip

LeCellier is our favourite restaurant at WDW, not just Epcot and we never miss it. Tough to get a reasonable dining time without making ADRs 6 months out though.

We tried Chefs des France year and really enjoyed it and are going back again this year.

 

[babiebelle]

I don't think I can put any of the restaurants in the "great" category, but we've found this over the years...

Bistro de Paris - Best restaurant in Epcot. Not on the same level as some of the other signatures though.

Le Cellier - Runs a close second most the time. Found are beef to be some of the best on WDW property. Blew YS out of the water in terms of meat quality. Getting an ADR here is a pain in the you know what though.

Tutto Italia - The antipasti platter is enough for 2 people to share for lunch. Everything is fresh and traditional.

Nine dragons - Another cheap lunch/dinner. Honey sesame chicken is enough for 2 to share with an appetizer to start. Not the greatest food in the world, but it serves it's purpose.

Coral Reef - Good enough most the time. Can't beat the view. We've had some great servers here.

Rose and crown - Nice cheese plate and descent wine list. Nothing to write home about in my book.

 

[OKW Lover]

We've got some favorites in Epcot. Love Rose & Crown for the atmosphere and basic food. Japan for the "show" and the food. LeCellier is certainly good - just not as good as all the hype. But our number one choice would be Bistro de Paris.

 

[davinakb]

Bistro, Coral Reef, Chefs, Cellier are our picks, though we try to branch out every so often. Have not tried Tutto yet (Alfredo's was ok). FWIW.

 

[Aimeedyan]

Marrakesh is a lot of fun if the menu interests you. It's not as authentic as I'd like, but the place is rarely full and there is a belly dancer and band to entertain you. It's a nice escape from the crazy crowds of the park.

Chefs de France was excellent at lunch; didn't have such a great dinner exp. We'd dine there for lunch again in a heartbeat. The French menu is delicious and a great value, and we went later in the day and had the server all to ourselves, as well as our dining area on the patio. It was relaxing and wonderful.

I loved Alfredo's but have not tried the replacement.

Coral Reef is good; we had bad service but good food and environment. It's kid central now that Nemo has taken up residence there =)

Oh - I've eaten at Nine Dragons. Is it even still there? Went at lunch; CM we were with had a great coupon. Food was good, typical Americanized chinese. Good service. We didn't pay anywhere near menu price so I have no complaints =)

 

[MJMcBride]

My 2 favorites are Chefs de France and San Angel Inn. The atompshere at both places is great. They do a nice job a putting you into the countries.

 

[nytimez]

I know Nine Dragons generally gets terrible reviews... but the Peking Duck there is a wonderful experience. It's a three-course meal for two and at around $40 is pretty reasonable.

 

[LSchrow]

absolutely number one: tutto italia.
2 ~ coral reef
after that, they're all comparable (chefs & lecellier are pretty good).

only one i would avoid (actually, the only "no way in hades we'll ever go back" in all of WDW) is rose & crown

hth

 

[tigger813]

UK- Rose and Crown- a must do for Fish and Chips and my favorite drink, the Welsh Dragon

Morocco- ate here last July and really enjoyed the food.

Coral Reef- good food, but expensive

Japan- 10 years ago, enjoyed it then

Germany- good 9 years ago

We're looking forward to trying more places in the future though just doing mostly kiosks at F&W in October.
