But have dined at CG many times.
Sorry, webray, but with all due respect, your claim that CG has "mediocre food" can not go unchallenged.
To suggest that CG has "mediocre food" is like saying the Magic Kingdom is an average theme park.
We always hit CG our 1st night at WDW. The pork tenderloin is amazing. So is the barbecue filet. Desserts are great, and if they have the smoked salmon flatbread appetizer, it's worth a try. They load that up so much, they've gotta lose money on it.
If you head out to watch the fireworks on the deck (as you should) you can safely leave your dinner if you're not finished and resume when you return.
The view of the fireworks from that deck is spectacular!
I'd hit the nice bar, too. The bartenders are super. If Dennis is working, ask him to make you his special "cake" martini. Tell him a Packer fan recommended it.
I know you'll enjoy CG. It's one of the best restaurants in all of WDW.
