What are some of your favorites restaurants off of the property. I know many of you somehow manage to stay at WDW for the entire trip, but for those that venture back into the normal world what are the best places for families, a nicer dinner, a good breakfast, etc. It doesn't seem like there is a lot of info available concerning restaurants outside WDW and Universal, and I know that my family eats almost exclusively off property because we stay in a vacation home. We never know where to eat, and I'm sure others have the same problem. Thanks for all your help!

Really close to property is a restaurant called Bahama Breeze that my family loves. It has a family friendly environment, but some entrees can get a little pricey. There is also a great seafood place, I believe it is called Pebbles, that we went to a few years ago which was very nice.

I use to live in Florida and would make many trips to "Boston Lobster Feast" on Internat'l drive. It is all you can eat Lobster, crab legs, shrimp, etc. The restaurant has a website too.

One of our favorites is on International Drive - Cafe Tu Tu Tango. Definitely worth the trip over there. Great atmosphere.

We had dinner last night at Black Angus Steakhouse on Irlo Bronson. It was very good.
We always make a trip to Lonestar Steak House which is delicious. Even my dad who hates country music with a passion sticks it out for great steaks.
Already mentioned has been Pebbles. That's a delicious restaurant and just about everyone can find something they will enjoy.
If you're looking for ribs, try the Tony Roma's on International Drive. One of the best Roma's I've been too.
If you're looking for a quick place to eat in the World, go to Beaches & Cream at the Beach Club Resort. It's my favorite place in WDW. The food is great, the atmosphere is fun and it's an easy in and out.

We went there last time and really enjoyed it too! In fact, my son still talks about Ed, our waiter!

We are looking forward to going when we return to WDW in May! There are many imitators along Internat'l drive but they are not the true "Boston Lobster Feast"!

When we go to Universal, we like to hit the Cracker Barrel that is less than a mile away.
Cracker Barrel

Thanks for all the suggestions guys. I'll definitely try a few of these out on my upcoming trip later this month.

Christini's - Off Sand Lake Rd. (Dr. Phillips area) very nice italian and for me the best part is they don't allow any infants or toddlers, so you can have a nice quiet dinner.
Morton's Steak House Off Sand Lake Rd. right next to Christini's
Emeril's on Citiwalk at Universal
Tu Tu Tango is great, but because it is tapas, it can get pricey with big eaters, but love the banana pizza for dessert, not to mention there are artists in the restaurant doing their work (and you can buy their stuff) and you can talk to them. The one night we were there, the flaminco dancers were there. This place was on Rachel Ray's $40 a day when she did Orlando.

I would have to go with Emeril's as well. Texas de Brazil is also a very good place on I. Drive.
