I am trying to finalize our ADR's for our August trip and since we have the dining plan we are thinking of trying some different places if possible. On the list of restaurants I saw Wolfgang Puck Cafe. The menu looks great and I made an ADR already but the caviot is Large Groups (8 or more - which is our parties size) have to sit outside unless there is inclement weather. I a little worried about eating outdoors in mid August.
Has anyone eaten at this location?
Has anyone eaten outdoors at this location?

We ate there in May and it was the best meal of our trip. The food and the service was excellent! I don't know about sitting outside though, maybe you can book two tables of 4 and ask to sit together.

We've eaten there. There were only four of us, so we weren't banished outside. That seems a little harsh to me - it certainly can't be to keep the noise down in the restaurant. It was very noisy. That being said, the food was very good. Our server wasn't the greatest, but that's probably just the luck of the draw.

We ate there two years ago and it was one of our best meals. There were 5 of us (but our youngest was just 1 at the time). I had pumpkin ravioli if I recall correctly. The sushi was great, and my wife simply loved her dish (but I can't recall what it was?).

I prefer to eat outside.

Even in FLORIDA in August?

I think the food at Wolfgangs is good, but speaking as a Floridian, I would not want to eat outside in August.

I would think if it was raining they would have to give you a seat indoors, right? As far as the food...I ate there a few trips back, and it was very good!

If you think it is TRULY hot in Florida in August, you really haven't been to too many hot places.

Bangkok in the summer;
Mumbai in the late spring (by far the worst);
The Selous, Tanzania in June.

Beng as most of us probably aren't world travelers, and being a Floridian, I would have to say it is pretty HOT in FLORIDA in AUGUST.

Wolfgang Puck Express is one of the best CS place on WDW property IMHO. When we ate there, I had a Chicken Lasagna that was to die for. We did eat outside, but it was January.

I did a quick search for weather in Mumbai...

This pretty much sums up Florida by August. Several months of heat/humidity followed by hurricanes. As a native born Floridian eating outside in August is not usually a pleasant experience, so I can't recommend it to anyone.

So I guess Floridians never picnic or do anything most of the other people in the world do. Never had a 4th of July picnic inside...

People go to WDW in August, brave crowds of people (and some will argue that it is less crowded than other times of the year) stand in lines outside - in the heat - in direct sun light without shade, then won't sit outside, then complain that they don't want to sit outside - under shade - for a meal.

Mumbai is hot and humid just like Florida, but it is also unsanitary, flithy and full of all kinds of interesting smells that compounds the unpleasantries. But that wouldn't have come up in a google search though, huh?
