We are planning on eating at the Artist Point our first night since were staying at the WL.

Done Whispering Canyon twice.

I've heared mixed reviews on the food at AP.

What do you think?

We have dined at Artist Pointe several times. We have always had a wonderful meal. We have had the bison, the tenderloin (excellent) and the Salmon. We have never been disappointed. The berry cobler is excellent.

We ate there for the second time last year - the first time was a number of years earlier. We had a good dining experience but wouldn't classify it as outstanding and it has not made it to our 'must do" list.

We ate there a few years ago. In our opinion, it was not memorable. Definitely not worth 2TS if you are on the dining plan. The berry cobbler we had was really awful (maybe it was just a bad night for it) I switched to the coffee three ways which was better. If you have access to good salmon, buffalo and the like near where you live like we do, it is nothing special. If you don't maybe it is worth a try for you...

I ate there once a while ago & I'm dying to get back. I'm a vegetarian, though & I usually get something not on the menu. I thought it was fantastic. It has a great wine list, too! :wine:

We had a character breakfast there in 2000. The food was good, but that was quite some time ago. I can't really give you a more accurate picture of what it's like today.

The last time I ate there with my fiancee (about a year ago) it was fabulous. The cobbler is amazing.

I don't think you'll be disappointed at all. Let us know what you think!

It is one of our "must do" restaurants. Amazing food, service, wine list, etc.

We've never been disappointed here, and we plan to eat there in October!

1) Like most WDW Signature restaurants, it is good food.
2) The menu items have been "dumbed down" since DDP.
3) But, you will not be disappointed.
4) You should enjoy your meal.

April, I'm a vegetarian too. I was going to order the potstickers when we're there in Sept. What else have you ordered there. We're looking forward to trying Artist Point because we've never been there before. :party:

I'm not a vegetarian, but I often eat like one. I had the pot stickers in April, and I was very pleased. My husband and son enjoyed their respective meals of salmon and scallops. Dessert was very good.

We eat there every time we're down. DH has always loves the steak or the buffalo and I've enjoyed the scallops. The service has always been excellent and the wine pairings for each course make the meal that much better. :thumbsup:
