Looking for a place more upbeat, fun for 22-28 years to eat??

Raglan Road or Paradiso 37 is looking like the best options, but that "food is mediocre" is a bit scary to hear.

I also vote for House of Blues or Raglan Road at DTD!!

We also LOVE ESPN Club at Boardwalk during football season, however it can be relatively mellow and quiet when it's not at the peak of any sporting event.

Raglan Road is a very good choice, with excellent food.

However, I would do this...

Have a nice dinner in World Showcase somewhere, then walk out the International Gateway to the Boardwalk and go to Jellyrolls. It's my favorite "adult" place to spend a night at Disney. They have a full drink menu, the piano players are wonderful, and the atmosphere is quite lively. Just be aware there is a $10 cover charge.

I might do this as well. My wife and I do this exact same thing at least once a trip. Drink around the world, grab some dinner at Tutto or Via Napoli or Rose & Crown, watch Illuminations, head to JellyRolls for a night cap. That my friends is an A+ night out.

The loudness of Planet Hollywood made my head feel like it was going to explode.

I second the meal in World Showcase and then follow it up with Jellyrolls.

I was just about to suggest Raglan Road when you said no pubs. And you know what, I am still suggesting it. The music is good, the Irish Dancers are awesome, the food is delicious. And it is most definitely upbeat. I know it is a "pub" but it is not like your typical NYC pub. It is very nice inside, I mean you are still in Disney, so you won't be getting a dingy drinky pub experience.

If I was you I would look into it. Check out some pictures, look at the menu, read a review or two. You might find it is your best option.

Paradiso is fairly new. I would stay away. The food is mediocre, the atmosphere is eh. I found it to be a disappointing experience all around.

This! Reglan Road is GREAT!

I have decided I am going to take someones advice and try the Paradiso, I know I know everyone said raglan road pretty much, but I feel their is not enough info about it here. Do to the fact I am the guy that always takes the risk, I am going to go and come back with a proper review for everyone with pics.

I figure we might as well get someone there to confirm officially and get some better pics. I also look at it as, "hey if its not bad, I have 10 different frozen drinks to forget where I am" lol so I am going to help out the forum a little. I would eat in epcot, but were arriving on thursday and that is her bday so we didnt buy tickets for the day we arrive since itll be around 7 or 9 when we arrive. We are going to epcot on saturday most likely so I havent figured out where i am eating yet for that, I will probs do lunch there since everything else is crazy reserved anyways.

I have yet to try Paradiso but have really wanted to! Honestly, I've just been waiting until I heard enough about it. Can't wait for your review and photos! Have a fabulous trip!

Good choice! I recommend Paradiso. Try the frozen sangria -- that'll make anything more upbeat!! There will always been positive and negative reviews for most places, so why not try them and decide for yourself.

Thats what I figured, their are very little reviews on this place and many on the others so I figure we need a good review. So why not be the guy to finally give something to the forum like this, and help out with peoples future decisions.
