2 adults looking for the BEST food in WDW

My wife and I are going in September with free dining (and without kids--don't worry, they'll get to go next time ). We will be making our ADRs this week and want YOUR input.

Our top priority in choosing restaurants is eating GREAT food (we're not as concerned about characters, etc.). We'll be there 7 nights so we should have plenty of opportunities to take in some of the best food. SO...what do you recommend? Which places have GREAT food? AND, if you were going to do ONE signature dining experience, where would you go?

Thanks in advance!

For great food, I am not sure if all are on the dining plan, our favorites are:

Narcoses (GF)
California Grill (CR)
Artist Point (WL)
Jiko (AKL)
LeCellier (EPCOT)
Fine dining would be Victoria & Albert's (GF)

Welcome to MouseBuzz!

Now that you have a few restaurants to think about you can look over the menus and see what you are interested in.

Re: 2 adults looking for the BEST food in WDW

Our favorite of all time has been California Grill- the lobster salad and the sushi app are devine! And the view of the fireworks are worth the long meal time. It was one of the first times I had a table where there was no salt shaker offered.

Re: 2 adults looking for the BEST food in WDW

Are the Swolphin restaurants on the dining plan? If they are, I would recommend the new Il Mulino New York Trattoria. By far the best dining experience I've ever had at Disney. And there have been many.
