What is your FAVORITE Epcot Restaurant...

[CathieArms]

...that is NOT on this list:

Tutto Italia
Biergsarten
Garden Grill

And why?

I have a 7:30 ADR at Tutto Italia on our last night and it's just too late. I've been trying for about a week to make it earlier with no luck. I'm at the point now where I'm thinking I'll just pick something else. Thoughts?

Oh, and I don't think I want to do Coral Reef, either...though if it was *really* worth it, I might add it back in.

Le Cellier and Toyko Dining are my two favorites.

Le Cellier because they had the best steak I've ever eaten

Tokyo Dining because the sushi was delicious and I really loved the atmosphere.

I like Coral Reef, Rose and Crown and Le Cellier.

Coral has a nice atmosphere and we've always had good food and service. The lobster bisque is wonderful.

Rose & Crown has really good food. I love their cheese plate! The steak and fish is a really large portion. I've never been inside we always end up sitting on the patio which is nice.

Le Cellier has a great filet with mushroom risotto and carries Unibroue beer (which I love).

Mexican pavilion for Dinner and France for pastry desserts

It's probably next to nearly impossible to get a ressie at LeCellier this close, but they have some of the best steaks we've ever had.
Teppen Edo at Japan is pretty good if you like the sho-gun type restaurants. Tutto Italia is ok....we had a not so great experience there in Dec. and not sure if we would go back. Le Chef's De France is also pretty good if you like French food.

My favorite (adults only) is Bistro de Paris. It's not on the dining plan, it doesn't have a children's menu, it's a quite intimate dining experience with excellent food and wine and it's nice to dress up, even on vacation. V&A is the only Disney restaurant that tops this one.

My favorite (with children) is Teppen Edo. The food is decent and the setup makes it entertaining for the entire family.

Chefs de France, awesome food and the very good service...love sitting along the windows and watching the passerbys....

 

[DonaldTDuck]

Rose & Crown. Goood food and service with the world's best beers available.

I would say Chefs de France or Teppan Edo. Two totally different styles, but both fantastic!

Tutto and Chefs

We love Teppan Edo!

But a word about Tutto...we've had many ADRs there and whenever we show up early to try and get seated, we have with no problem.

Teppan Edo (formerly Teppan Yaki) is a family tradition.

I would like to try Le Cellier....but MUST do Teppan Edo at least once during the trip for the family.....

It is hibachi...but a wonderful show and nice cool place to relax and dine...

"The experience and authenticity"...is what my (now) teens just yelled out at me when I asked them the best thing about Teppan Edo...

We also love the shopping in Japan and the shows.....

Teppan Edo and Le Cellier would top my list. The food is excellant at both!

LeCellier is our favorite Epcot restaurant! It is the one restaurant that we have to dine at on every trip. We do wish to try San Angel Inn and Akershus on our next trip. I've read lots of great things about Restaurant Marrakesh and Teppan Edo on the DIS, too.

ETA: you may want to try and walk-in at Tutto Italia. When we were having lunch at LeCellier in June, they were not turning people away and there were still 6 empty tables at 1:00pm. You may get lucky!
Also, we enjoyed Coral Reef in February for dinner but weren't impressed with our lunch in September. I don't think we'll be returning to Coral Reef for awhile. It's off our must-do list (which is a shame because it was the highlight of our dinners in 2/08).

Les Chefs..every entree I have tried has been outstanding, the service great.

 

[Pooh&OurHunny]

Chefs de France...amazing food and great service.
