My top 3 favs are all signatures:
1) Citricos - I enjoy the Mediterranean flavors, the food is excellent, the service is always top-notch, it's easy to get an ADR for, I love the decor and atmosphere, and it's not always overrun with kids. But mainly, because the food is just outstanding!

2) Flying Fish - really creative and inventive seafood

3) Jiko - Love the setting at AKL, food is wonderful and a bit out of the ordinary

My top 3 non-signatures:
1) Sanaa - great, out of the ordinary Indian inspired food in a gorgeous, relaxing setting

2) Crystal Palace Breakfast - looooove the Puffed French Toast! I love having a pre-park opening ADR and getting to eat in the restaurant before it's completely crowded. The food is hot and fresh, Pooh and friends are fun to meet and everyone is always so happy and friendly there!

3) Via Napoli - very good, authentic Neopolitan style pizza that takes me back to eating pizza in the real Naples Italy!

Garden Grill
Ohana's

Hi

We had our best meal at Jiko. Atmosphere, service and food all over the top. If you don't want to go that route, Sanaa at Kidani offers a similar feel in food but in a less expensive and more casual atmosphere (you can eat while looking out on the savanna).

I also enjoy Tokyo Dining. The menu is different, I like the location, and the food is reliable.

And the Brown Derby is excellent in all areas.

Have fun planning.

2. Ohana - good food; love the atmosphere/views from the restaurant.

[Jedimike]

3 is really hard but we always love ohana, sci fi (for the atmosphere) and california grill.

 

[goofyintoronto]

My absolute faves are Cali Grill & Wolfgang Puck express. I know WGPE isnt a TS restaurant, but it sure has better food than some TS!!! I had the best meals at both places.

Also, Liberty Tree, and Teppan Edo for the food. Also, Kona breakfast!


Character dining: Tusker House breakfast, Crystal Palace (any), Ohana breakfast.

Goodness, its so hard to pick just 3!

 

[janeapplemeadow]

#1. Flying Fish
#2 Cali Grill
#3 Citricos

 

[skw444]

Cape May breakfast - a more low key character meal, great character interaction, big variety of food and very good.

Yachtsman Steakhouse - delicious steaks, nice atmosphere

Liberty Tree Tavern - was surprised with this but this ended up being one of the best meals we had on our trip.

 

[goofyintoronto]

Forgot another one! Cape May breakfast!!!!! Nice and quiet, delish food.

 

[OhThePain]

With all the options and different kinds of dining experiences, it is dang near impossible to pick just three, so here is my list of 3 (or so) for a lot of the different types of dining experiences

Non-DDP Experiences (they tend to be more expensive):
V&A's, Shula's, bluezoo.

Signatures:
Citricos and Flying Fish both share our top honors with Jiko and AP not far behind. C.G. gets honorable mention for sushi and the view.

Non-Signatures:
Sanaa, Les Chef's and 50's PTC

Best Atmospheres:
Sci-Fi, Biergarten, CRT

Quick Service:
CHH (MK), Sunshine Seasons (EC), Flame Tree (AK), WPE or EoS (DTD). Ghirardelli's gets honorable mention for ice cream.

Character Meals:
1900 PF (breakfast), CM (breakfast), CP (breakfast). Cape May breakfast and Tusker House are both very close behind. I will note that if this is HER first trip, make it a point to take her to Cinderella's Royal Table (it will earn you some bonus points).

Dinner Show:
The only one worth going to is HDDR and it is totally worth going to.

Jiko and the California Grill are my two favorites. There are many contenders for that third spot, so I'll just stick with two.

 

[ScoJo15]

1 - Bistro de Paris
2 - Citricos

Those are top 2 hands down..multiple visits, great environment, exceptional food and service

3 - Kouzzina (wanted to make sure it was mentioned! Ate there one time last year and absoultely loved it)

 

[Karabee]

Citricos - Food and service are both amazing
Fultons - I love getting crab here
Olivia's - I know this is random but we like stopping here for breakfast.

 

[Pakey]

My overall top 3:

V&A, bluezoo, Il Mulino

The best of Disney's Dining Plan choices:

Flying Fish, Citricos, Jiko

My favorite casual dining:

Ragland Road, Sanaa, Biergarten

My top 3 restaurants at Disney...I just love any poll with picking favorites btw but this is my hardest.

I love to eat at 1.The Liberty Tavern at MK (love how they announce your state and all that).
2. I love to fo to planet hollywood as noisy as it is its a fun time and Im a big fan of burgers when Im on vaca
3. I have to say I love having breakfast at any food court in any Disney resort its just a wonderful way to start the morning and get excited for visiting the parks and Im also a big fan of anything with bacon

Otherwise I dont really have any big time favorites that are cant be missed I liek everywhere as long as Im there burgers and chicken fingers do it for me. Disney finally has some good pizza at Epcot so thats my next choice

Love to read where everyone picks it makes me hungry tho

 

[spring70too]

Yak & Yeti
Cape May , for dinner, their breakfast is a waste IMO
LeCellier, for late lunch to save one TS credit

I also love RainForest Cafe, but I spend way too much there as I cannot resist the apps.
