please help me choose

I'm having a hard time deciding on my last ADR in Epcot. The places I've narrowed it down to have gotten mixed reviews on allears. Please let me know your opinions. I am trying to go somewhere new to us, so that leaves out: Biergarten (one of our faves), LeCellier (also a fave) and Japan. Morocco and China don't appeal to me and Italy is closing that week so that's out.

So here are my options:
Rose and Crown
San Angel
Coral Reef
Garden Grill
Akershus

I've never been to Coral Reef, but it has gotten rave reviews around here. San Angel food is ok...atmosphere is awesome.

We are actually going to LTT the night before, I'm looking for a sit-down for when we are in Epcot.

We really like the Garden Grill. It is a character meal, and the whole restaurant rotates. Very cool.

Rose & Crown would be nice if you could time it for Illuminations. Coral Reef is also nice.

Re: please help me choose

We loved Coral Reef - if you're sea food lovers you'll enjoy it. However, I have heard some complain that the portions were too small (they seemed perfect to us).

Also - Morocco is a nice surprise. The restaurant is beautiful, the servers are so nice and the menu isn't "too" exotic. The desserts are wonderful and so is the mint tea. The belly dancer adds a nice touch for most husbands.

We use to love San Angel Inn (especially for the ambience), but the last two dinners we've had there have been awful. I think it was our worst meal during our last trip.

I'd go with the Rose and Crown. I've been there two years in a row now, and I love it. I liked the San Angel too, the atmosphere was fantastic but the food wasn't as good.

Coral Reef for the atmosphere, its something you will remember. The food reviews have been quite good lately too.

Yeah. Coral reef is a must do at least once. Nice chocolate desert. Rose gets a vote, but only for the illuminations patio.

Out of the ones you listed.... we have eaten at Rose & Crown & San Angel. Of those 2.. San Angel is my fav. At R&C, we had the Bangers and Mash. IT was very good... tons of food.. way too much to finish. Kids however, did not like R&C at all. San Angel has fab. food & fantastic atmosphere. Kids even found something to eat there.. love it.!

We are not fans of R&C, so I would pick Coral Reef. I actually would always pick Le Cellier because it so good ..........just try something different!
