Favorite non-park restaurants?

[MarkTwain]

If you could eat at any Disney restaurant not in a theme park (ie, a restaurant at the hotels or Downtown Disney), with no consideration of budget necessary, what would they be? :wave:

I have a few favorites:

Kona Cafe (Poly)
Sanaa (AKL-KV)
Turf Club (SSR)

But if there were no stipulations then:

Flying Fish Cafe (BWR)
Victoria & Alberts (GFR)
Jiko (AKL)

The best food we've eaten was hands down at The Wave at the Contemporary. The atmosphere wasn't amazing - but the food blew out some signature restaurants in our opinion.

Ooo our ultimate splurge is the California Grill. We LOVE it but always hold off because even for just the two of us who do drink alcohol, it's always close to $100 for a meal-CRAZY!

The menu looks good. I used to love the California Grill, but it isn't my favorite anymore. I like Jiko; interesting menu. I like Shula's for steak. Portobello Yacht Club for Northern Italian food, and of course "Vic and Al's".

If money was no object, I would pick the chef's table with wine pairing at Victoria & Albert's.

I really like:
*ohana
*fultons
*whispering canyon

 

[Computer Magic]

Yachtman's
Sanna
Fultons although haven't been there since removed from Dining Plan

Would love to try the Swan and Dolphin restraurants as I hear great reviews of Shula's. This is where the Dining Plan is a disadvantage, missing out on some great food.

We're trying lots of new ones in June...Sanaa, 'Ohana, California Grill and Citricos, so hopefully some of these will make the favorites list as well! I'd love to try Victoria & Albert's with wine pairings someday...a girl can dream.
