    Default What's the best seafood experience you've had at WDW?

    This is for all you seafood fans out there. I'm curious as to what is the best seafood you've had anwhere in WDW. I want to try some new restaurants the next time we are there and looking for some good seafood suggestions.

    Thanks!

    The Mahi Mahi at Coral Reef has been amazing both the times that I had it. I know that alot of people are down on Coral Reef (or at least it seems that way) but DW and I always make sure to go here each visit

    Does sushi count? If so, I would say that my first taste of the spicy sensation sushi at CA Grill was the best seafood experience ever.

    My best seafood meal was at the California Grill. First..I'm not a seafood fan, being afraid of getting "fishy fish". I've know John State, former Chef D' Cuisine at both Flying Fish & CG since the FF opened at the Boardwalk. John knew my reservations about fish & seafood and always was after me to try one of his dishes. After he moved to the CG he told me one night forget about the menu. He was going to decide what I was having for dinner that night. None of what he presented me with was on the menu.
    The app was his take on a New England Chowder and was very flavorful.
    For the Entree he prepared a Halibut dish with a cream sauce that was INCREDIBLE. That night John removed my fear of getting unfresh fish..Yoshie has even got to try some of her sushi. I've had seafood at the CG and also the FF at the Boardwalk BUT those are the ONLY two restruants I've ever ordered seafood at ANYWHERE.
    John's left Disney and Jens Dahlman who replaced John @ FF is now at the CG & Tim Keating is @ the FF. Both are masters of their craft and ANY seafood creation on the menus will be exceptional.
    I highly recomend either the CG or FF. Both are my favorites of all the signature TS locations at the resort.

    Hello,

    We have had wonderful seafood at both Narcoosees and The Flying Fish Cafe. Everytime we go to Narcoosees, I always get the Lobster. It is wonderful! And, The Flying Fish Cafe has a wonderful Red Snapper - it is its signature dish. We also had a wonderful monkfish at Jikos.

    Enjoy!

    Thank you for the great suggestions. I'm drooling right now. I hope I can wait until November.

    And yes, sushi definitely counts! I've heard so many good things about the sushi at CG. I've got to try it this time.

    Thanks again!

    I ate at both FF & CG last trip & will again in Sept. the snapper at FF was great. the sushi at CG was the best IVe had. I want to talk to the chefs at both places. I have to decide what to have there this trip
    my first sushi ever was at Kimonos so Im also partial to that & at Tokyo Dining which was good. & Im going to eat at these places also in Sept.

    At the top of my list are two dishes that, alas, are no longer offered. The first was an incredible "fish of the day" at Alfredo's. The second was the tuna with wasabi mashed potatoes at CR. I think I'm going to have to try to make that at home because I still crave those potatoes!

    The potato wrapped snapper at the Flying Fish is the best seafood dish I've ever had. I have had some excellent seafood at Fultons, Citricos and Narcoosees but the signature dish at FF is tops. Going to try CG our next trip. Of course we'll be back at FF too,

    Agreed..that stuff was heavenly.

    Narcoosees and Flying Fish are both awesome as well.

    I love Narcoosee's. Everything there is delicious and the seafood chowder is the best I've had.

    My favorite was tuna dish at California Grill. The next was the red snapper at Flying Fish.
    For fresh Oysters it's Fulton's Crab House.

    The best fish I've EVER eaten was the pan fried grouper at Hollywood Brown Derby in DHS. Absolutely delicious - I wanted more...

    I've also had the tuna at Corla Reef, and it was excellent.

    If you like mussels clams and oysters, you might enjoy the seafood buffet at Cape May. Not very often do you get to eat all the oysters you want. The other seafood on the buffet is ok, but not extraordinary. I also like the Coral Reef, but more for the atmosphere than the food. I had a fantastic Salmon at Artist Point as well.

    The crab cakes at either Rain Forest Cafe are to die for as well! Have a great time.
