What Epcot restaurant for dinner?

[Mickey1976]

I'm trying to decide what restaurant to do at Epcot on our dining plan...that's great food and also bang for our buck.

We've done Teppen Edo and Akershus...will be doing Akershus again. Don't want to spent two credits at Le Cellier.

I have Via Napoli on my radar as well as Garden Grill. We are probably going to do Cape May so probably not going to do Coral Reef. Any I'm missing? If all I can order is one pizza for $17 at Via Napoli, that may not be "worth" it on the dining plan. Unfortunately we'll be paying for Akershus OOP because we'll be going there while renting a house with my SIL and her family after our on-site visit.

Thanks for your help and thoughts!!

We really enjoyed Via Napoli. While it may not be the best bang for your buck with the dining plan, I still think I'd pick it. My family really enjoys it there, and we especially LOVE the dessert--the zeppole di ricotta. Oh.my.word!!!! That dessert (just one) would be $10 out of pocket, so that adds to your value.

Biergarten is good too. Since it's a buffet, you get more bang for your buck, but we'd still choose Via Napoli. We like the food better there.

Thanks! I asked this in another thread, but you do get dessert too on the dining plan?

 

[Mickey1976]

Oops, I forgot...you do get a dessert with your meal. Do any places let you do app instead of dessert?

No

Via Napoli is a very good pic. It is the best pizza on Disney property. On the dining plan you can order any entree or indivdual pizza (including the signature pizzas - individual size).

I have eaten several times at Via Napoli.. I LOVE the food there and I grew up on home made Italian food. The tortellini soup and candele are fantastic. It is now my first night's dinner for every trip going forward.

I have yet to try the pizza because I can get pizza anywhere.

Via Napoli is great. So is Biergarten. You can't go wrong.

We have eaten at Rose & Crown on our past 2 trips. It was really good and a great spot to see illuminations If you time it right. Ask for a patio seat. It was the best!!!!

We also love Garden Grill it is a must do every trip.

Via Napoli is good too.

I'm an Italian girl from Jersey and I loved Via Napoli. The individual pizzas are huge and the desserts are delish. You get an entree and dessert on DDP, but no app. Also the arrancini app.(which you pay OOP for) is so good!

Rose and crown. Yum

Via Napoli is a favorite of ours. The candlestick pasta is amazing!
Rose and Crown is also a winner
La Hacienda in Mexico is another one we love.

I would keep the Via Napoli because it is so worth it. I like getting the best bang for my buck but I also want to eat really good food and you will find that at Via Napoli.

My favorites r Teppan Edo and Marakesh

Marrakesh is a must do!

 

[Mickey1976]

Thanks everyone! I think we'll do Via Napoli...I'm Italian as well but I like the idea of one of us getting a pizza and the other a pasta dish and sharing. We'll do Marrakesh for a quick service...yum!

Rose and crown. I am 100% Italian and from NY and thought via Napoli was bad. We got a few things off the menu and didn't like any of it. May try tutto next time

Garden Grill is really good. I would choose there. I also love Via Napoli, but if you are looking for more value on DDP, Garden Grill would be my pick since it's a character dinner
