Looking for a few more restaurants

[ilovelabs2021]

We like to do one sit down meal a day. For our 8 night trip in July, I am planning on seeking reservations for the following:

Beaches and Cream (never been)
Chef Mickey's (never been)
Teppan Edo (I know there mixed reviews on this place, but my kids really wanted to go last time we went and we didn't)
Via Napoli (went last trip and loved it)
Il Mulino (maybe)

Looking for 3-4 other places! TIA!

On our last trip in December, we did Yak and Yeti, Olivia's, Beaches and Cream, Whispering Canyon and Polite Pig. Yak and Yeti was as good as always. Beaches and Cream was very good also. Olivia's was a let down, their menu was limited and old favorites were completely gone from the menu (Plantation Key Pork Chop). Whispering Canyon was nothing to write home about. But, the real surprise here was Polite Pig, Tasty, full of flavor and a great meal for the money! It is a counter service, but they do have places to sit inside and out.

Are you looking for any location in particular?

 

["El Gran Magnifico"]

All dependent on what's open at that time but:

Shula's
Narcoossee's
Jaleo

 

[Chi84]

We love the Boathouse, Jaleo and Frontera Cocina in Disney Springs.

Hmmm

Homecoming, jaleo, pucks

Brown derby, sci fi

San angel inn, garden grill, Corel reef (for the view...food is iffy), rose and crown (simple, but effect), tuttu, via Napoli...

Tiffins, tusker...

Not much at magic kingdom. Crystal palace breakfast...skippers is ok. But avoid liberty tree dinner and some of the tonys “Italian” items.

Hotels:
Olivia’s
Citricios, v&a, park fare is ok...
Kona
California grill...chef Mickey’s O.K. for breakfast
Any at animal kingdom lodge
Beaches...cape May for lunch
Trattoria is good...flying fish is good
The new rooftop place at the Caribbean DVC looks good.

Enjoy yourself.

I think Polite Pig is actually the best restaurant at Disney Springs, including all the table service ones.

You know...I’ve been to most of the others...but for some reason haven’t tried this yet. That will be rectified soon.

I've only been there a few times, but everything I've had was excellent -- both entrees and sides. It's not the best BBQ I've ever had, but it's really quite good for a counter service place at Disney Springs.

I really like Pizza Ponte as well for counter service. It's amazing how busy Blaze gets when Pizza Ponte is right there and of significantly higher quality. I suppose it's because you can get whatever toppings you want on a pizza in a couple of minutes at Blaze, but it's just mediocre pizza you can get almost anywhere. There's one like two minutes from where I live and I never go there because there are four or five other pizza places near me that are much better.

Topolino's (at Riviera Resort) is fantastic for both breakfast (distanced character appearances) and dinner. Wine Bar George (Disney Springs) is also outstanding. Raglan Road is fun too (but can be loud). Also agree with many of those already mentioned - Brown Derby, Yak & Yeti, California Grill, Homecomin', Sanaa. Hopefully for July vaccinations will be more prevalent (and I know we all have our individual levels of comfort) but will just mention that Teppan Edo is the only indoor dining location I felt uncomfortable in. They sat every one of the 8 seats at our table (party of 5 +party of 3) and I just didn't think the small plexi divider between me and a member of the other party was sufficient for spending an hour+ at dinner. Food and service was great but I personally wouldn't go back unless vaccinated.

Thanks for all the suggestions, everyone! Many of these places we haven't been to. We have a lot of time until our 60 day mark (52 to be exact!), but it is never too early to plan!
