What restaurant has the best theme/atmosphere???

[Phonedave]

For effort - Sci Fi - even though I can't stand it (I like to see the people I am eating with, not the backs of their heads)

For atmosphere - San Angel Inn - Even though some complain it is too dark to see, I have never had a problem.

For show - Biergarten - Communial tables, live band, and dance floor.

Sanaa.

Not many places you can see a live giraffe (among other animals ) stroll by your dinner table.

Also have to consider Coral Reef if we are just talking atmosphere.

raglan road gets my vote,especially when the bands playing!!

Coral Reef....I mean for gosh sakes...you're in a fish tank!

 

[DsnySodec]

As far as theme San Angel or Biergarten
For atmosphere alone Raglan Road (drinking atmosphere)

 

[HouCuseChickie]

This is tough...I like the atmosphere at San Angel, Biergarten, 50s, BOG, and even Coral Reef to some degree...but CRT and Sanaa (my new fave) are at the top of my list.

I have a soft spot for crystal palace.

When it comes to theme and atmosphere I would have to say San Angel Inn, but the food is a different story.

Biergarten

Im surprised no ine has said be our guest. I havr really been to any of the showy restaurants except biergarten(sorry) and ohana.

I'd say Be Our Guest and Gaston's Tavern for theming. I love the theming of the tavern. The antler decorations, the really nice seat and fireplace. And Be Our Guest, getting to dine in the grand ballroom. It was exactly like the movie. As for atmosphere, my favorite's Flame Tree BBQ. Good outdoor seating with a view of Everest and being surrounded by trees. Then again, I haven't been eaten at many TS restaurants but I'll come around to that with more money in my pockets for future trips!!

Tough question. I'm going to say...

Biergarten
San Angel
Via Napoli (I love those wood fired pizza ovens)
Sanaa
Jiko
T-Rex

New Faves:
Be Our Guest
Tutto Gusto Wine Cellar (It has a menu )
La Cava del Tequila (It has a menu )

Personally i love Yak & Yeti, the theme as well as the food is great

 

[ajrwdwgirl]

You all have come up with some good choices already. My choices would be Sci-Fi, Biergarten, and Be Our Guest (although I don't understand the one room with the portraits off of the ballroom, it is kind of like a library but not. I didn't like that room's theming).

 

[mrdisman]

Sci Fi...San Angel Inn...

 

[Brer Fox]

I'd say Be Our Guest with Sci-Fi as a close second.

50's prime time

 

[LostPrincessKarleigh]

Be Our guest. We loved it so much we are there twice in this trip! Can't wait to go back.

Another vote for Biergarten.
Has a cool indoor-nighttime thing going, forced perspective villagescape, outlandish CM uniforms, themed menu...

All that's missing is for some sort of attraction to be integrated with the goings-on.
