Best Off-Site Restaurant's Thread

DH and I went to Le Coq au Vin on our honeymoon many years ago and LOVED it! Since we will be in the World without kids in a couple of weeks, we will be going again. Excellent food and I think they've been around forever... Really looking forward to eating there again!

My wife and I love Pei Wei's. We have left before the end of Wishes to get there before they close.

Agree 100% with Pei Wei! Incredible value, and I am always bringing a takeout box home since the portions are large. Really the portions are large enough for 2 meals! And so YUMMY!

Bon Appetit!

Just got back from Orlando two days ago, and the two dining stand-outs for our trip were Nagoya Sushi and Market Street Cafe. We went to Nagoya Sushi with a $25 gift certificate from Restaurant.com, but would definitely go back without one. The atmosphere was very relaxing, the service very friendly and the food was fantastic. We have some really good Japanese restaurants at home, and thought Nagoya rated up there. Our teenage boys really enjoyed the food also, and wanted to go back. It's located at 7600 Dr. Phillips Blvd. The Market Street Cafe is across from the lake in downtown Celebration and has really good food and an artsy diner feel. We went for breakfast and I had a breakfast burrito, my husband got a spinach, mushroom, feta omelet and one son got grilled chocolate chip-banana pancakes (huge). Everything was very fresh and flavorful. The lunch and dinner menu looked really good, too. Wish we'd had a chance to go back. Very good service as well.

This has probably been asked before but how is Boston Lobster Feast? I've been meaning to go to this a few times but I usually didn't have a car or the time. I'm renting a car so I will have plenty of freedom for off-site dining. The reviews seem to be split. Just looking for some feedback..thanks everyone.

No one has posted about other Spanish restaurants besides Cubanos? I can't believe that in all of Orlando no Spanish restaurants other than Cubanos or Bongos at DTD? Someone had to have eaten at some other restaurants?? Looking for family style Spanish (not Mexican) either Cuban or others (Puerto Rican, Argentinian, Colombian) style restaurant? Pastelillos, Empanadas, Cuban sandwiches, anything like that? Anyone??

The Columbia (in Celebration). Spanish dishes, great atmosphere.

We are always in Orlando and I just wanted to add a couple that hadn't been listed:

My absolute favorite place to eat in Orlando is Kobe Japanese Steak House- while we usually go to the one on Kirkman we have eaten at the one by DTD and it was just as good! We don't like to be sat with other people but it's never been a problem here! This one is a drive but we had a great meal at Smoky Bones BBQ on Colonial I believe. It's a BBQ and Sports Bar- think Wilderness Lodge meets ESPN Club! Also we stayed at the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress recently and had vouchers for the breakfast buffet in the food court- it was a little weird at first but once we figured out there system it was great! The french toast was excellent as was everything else we ate. I'm not sure about the value though, the vouchers didn't have a price or anything but for us it was great! As far as Tony Roma's goes- there is one over by the International Airport and we have eaten there quite a few times and always had a fantastic meal, but the one on I- Drive has been less than stellar.

as sort of a local....Kobes is my favorite, too ....only we go to the one on 192 across from Celebration because our friends have eaten at the others and said this one is far better. Our first time we couldn't believe the amount of food you get there. We enjoy meeting the other groups you sit with especially if they have never eaten there. They have an early bird seating, too, so that makes it more affordable than Teppon Edo at Epcot which used to be my favorite.....Kobes is so much better.....

Just heard about this on the Today show this a.m. http://www.yellowpages.com/products

It will show you restaurants and everything else in the area. DH and I tested it with gas station prices today and it was spot on--that's important for us because our truck is diesel. Great app
