Default Need Help Picking One More ADR

Okay DW and I have picked out our ADRs for our December trip to the World. We are on the DDP and here is what we have:
Boma (Dinner)
Whispering Cayon Cafe (Dinner)
The Crystal Palace (Breakfast)
Kona Cafe (Breakfast)
Narcoossee's (Dinner)
Kona Cafe (Dinner)

We are looking for another dinner and would prefer a non-buffet. However, we might consider one if ya'll think it is worth it. Also, this will be our 1st weddding anniversary week, so it would be nice if it was a little more quiet and romantic but that too is not an absolute. So, what are your suggestions....PLEASE?

How about Marrakesh at Epcot? As far as I'm concearned, it's underrated. The restaraunt is beautiful and exotic, plus you get to be entertained by bellydancing and a band. You really feel like you're in a far away place there. Another one we enjoyed was Raeglan Road over at DTD. The Irish decor is really cool, they have fantastic food, and they have live music and step dancing in the evening. Have fun on your trip!

I agree with Marrakesh--or really any of the World Showcase restaurants

Also, California Grill when Wishes is taking place--quiet, romantic, great food and wonderful atmosphere!!!

You can always count on Le Cellier for a great meal.

Because you are going in December and it might be cool. I would try Le Cellier, the cheddar cheese soup is awesome and on a cool day would really hit the spot
We also liked 50's prime time cafe.
The first trip I loved Raglan road,
Last year, not so much, service was poor, the food was mediocore and my youngest son was sick all night
Maybe someone else could weigh in in raglan Road of late

We just got back last week so it's all still fresh! This was our experience. Le Cellier is a must do. We didn't find any restaurant to really be romantic, partly because we had two kids with us. (When we ate at Le Cellier we had a S C R EAM I N G little girl next to us. We've been in their shoes... not a problem, just not romantic either.) We had a terrible experience at Marakkesh. We were being seated as the belly dancer walked out and she didn't return until we were leaving. The AC was not working and the service was lousy.My husband loved the lamb but the rest of us didn't like what we ordered. Our absolute FAVORITE was Ohana's and it's right there at the Poly. Again, not romantic but we had great service, great food, and watched Wishes from the window. A magical evening for us.

My family really likes LeCellier! You can count on a really good dinner there. On the other hand, you might consider Cali Grill, especially during Wishes fireworks! It is totally awesome! Just remember, it does take two TS credits.

what about canada Le Cellier in epcot or the france restaurant on the dining plan that is one table service. they are both romantic choices and have an excellent selection. le cellier is more of your typical steak house, but if you want to try something a little different but still with in the basics you can try france.

otherwise, if its possible i'd pay out of pocket one nite for a dinner, save the table service and then use two on a nite u'd choose to celebrate your anniversary at a 2TS restaurant like california grill (then check out the fireworks from the observation deck) or even the castle in the magic kingdom... the castle you can also get a commemerative photo taken before dinner... you can also check out the fireworks during dinner from inside the restaurant here or outside afterwards.

I would vote for Artist Point. I ate there in May and it was the best meal of the trip. We also ate at Jiko and CG, for comparison. It is a lot less noisy that CG and WL is wonderful and romantic.

If you tell them ahead of time, that you are celebrating a special ocassion, they will print a special menu for you with special message on the bottom. We celebrated my birthday and a friend's birthday all weekend long (each of us at different spots and both of us at CG ) and Artist Point was definitely the most magical of the 3 Signature restaurants.

My vote would be Liberty Tree in MK. We really liked the food and you can't beat the location. It's so nice to walk out in to Liberty Square after a good meal

Ohana. I love it there not really a buffet but family style. Since your are on the dinning plan I would suggest an expensive restaurant such as Cali Grill to get your monies worth! Although it counts as 2 table service.

You dont have any in World Showcase. LeCellier is excellent but hard to get adrs. Also Coral Reef is good.

I would have to agree with BethieTink about Artist Point. My DH and I ate there for the first time on our last trip and absolutely loved it. You can't miss the portobello soup (unless you don't like portobellos)! We had a late dinner and took a very quiet and relaxing boat ride from MK to WL. It was so nice. Artist Point has now become a must do for my DH and I (it helps that my parents take the kids for the night too!).

California Grill is my absolute favorite restaurant in all of WDW. It counts as 2 TS credits, but it's well worth it. The food is fantastic-the menu changes daily, but the sushi appetizer was the best I've ever had. The view of Magic Kingdom, especially during Wishes, is not to be missed. My wife and I went there to celebrate our anniversary, and it was a magical night.
