eating at Disney Springs!

Hi!

so in our upcoming trip to the world 14 days from today (I will be on the plane right at this moment in 2 weeks time ) we have a night at Disney Springs we did have a reservation for the boathouse but then I had to swap some plans round and my DS night got changed and wasn't available for the night we were now going we are still considering going to the bar and just ordering (those filet sliders and truffle fries are calling my name!) but I wondered if anyone had any suggestions for there "go-to" places at DS? we usually head to Wolfgang puck but we are paying OOP so we are saving that for September!

thanks for any tips!

I heard Raglan Road is really good. I haven't been yet, but its apparently the #1 voted Gluten Free restaurant in Orlando. Its a big deal for me because of my allergies. But the food looks really yummy and huge portions and they have bands and dancers as well.

Wolfgang Puck Express in the Marketplace has great food - I love the chicken Alfredo.
We like the theming in House of Blues - we also had great burgers there once.
Rainforest cafe is so cute - I am always pleasantly surprised by the food - I normally get a salad.
We quite enjoyed Paradiso 37, we had a nice night there. I think we had Quesedillas.
Earl of Sandwich if we want something very quick.
Raglan road isn't too exciting for us as we live in Liverpool so we have lots of Irish pubs and culture. We pop in to the bar to get my husband a pint of Guiness though!
I haven't tried the Boathouse yet, but I would definately try for a walk-in or bar table if I was in your situation.

We ate at Morimotos last trip and it was excellent. Also great is Splitsville. We really enjoyed our meals at both places.

Raglan Road is a MUST for us on each visit... My wife is of Irish Heritage, so an obvious choice for her... The portions are always plenty and the variety is great.. The fried scallops on a stick (not real name) are to die for!!!! I have yet to have a less than stellar meal there and I can say we've been there at least 10 times... Being a Brit (You are, aren't you?? ) it may be same ole sh*t as back home.. Give it a go... I don't think you'll be disappointed!!

oooooooooo never thought of bongos might try it! we went to Cooke's in September but we have a lot of fish and chips in the UK and because we are only there a week we will probably have fish and chips before and after the trip haha!

we went to Raglan Road in September we do love it but because we did it so recently we are thinking of somewhere else to try and broaden our horizons! I highly recommend it though because the food and the place is great!

we usually do wolfgang puck express but with no dining plan its quite an expensive meal so i think we are going to hold off and wait til we go in september this year!
I am curious about Rainforest may have to give it a go for a bite
I think ill have a look at paradiso 37 i can be a fussy eater so ill have a look at the menu see if I will eat everything
we have never been to earl of sandwich I know! we are going for breakfast on our last day
we do like Raglan Road but we want to try new places!
Those Filet Sliders and truffle fries just look amazing!!! this list is getting bigger and bigger

oh man Skunk you have just killed me with those pictures!!! I can feel my waistband expanding!!!!!

I think the solution is to have the equivalent of the Food and Wine festival at DS a bit like a pub crawl for food!

House of Blues! Amazing food. We eat there every year and always have outstanding food. My husband loves the steak and the burgers from there. Never had a problem just walking in and getting sat.
