Epcot's Le Cellier restaurant debuts new chef, menu

So it seems like at the end of last year it was pretty down, and back in May it was very good.

This is just a thought... and im probably wrong because the Candlelight Processional should be pretty packed... but maybe the quality is due to the timing? October through mid December is kinda a down time compared to the other months.... May is usually hopping? Dont know if that has an correlation...? Doubt it... but a thought.

I vote yes for LeCellier...Le Cellier is one of my mandatory ressies every year...I would say I have eaten there 6 times in the last 4 years, and it is one of my favs...I would say it is my fav...
1 time out of the 6 visits I was dissapointed with the quality of the steak...but I'll give the chef 1 pass... we did have the last ressie of the night and I may have just a scrub steak...the other 5 times it has been outstanding...
I always have the NY Strip....that's just what I prefer as far as steaks go...
To compare I liked the steak at LeCellier better than the Ribeye at Rose and Crown.. but I am a NY Strip kinda guy...
I have been to Yachtsman 1 time a few years ago and got the KC Strip..and it was good, but I always felt it ws overrated..
Maybe I just like the environment better at LeCellier....Yachtsman was a little too formal for me....
LeCellier's environment has always been very relaxed and festive, which I prefer....
But I do agree about the waiting even with a ressie.. it can be frustrating sometimes, but I think it is due to the fact that the dining room there is the smallest at WDW and they tend to get behind the schedule...just a guess...but it's worth it for me....

just think poutine...poutine...poutine
If you never thought cheddar cheese could literally knock your socks off...try the poutine...delicious!

I lived in Chatham, Ontario, Canada for 4 yrs and quickly grew to LOVE poutine. We may just stick with the ADR at the Yachtman but visit Le Cellier for lunch. Now if only Epcot had a Tim Horton's

I have an ADR there for this fall. I keep on debating whether I should cancel or not. I'm really not thrilled with the "signature" menu, and that's odd for me, because all the other signature restaurants I love. But I have the deluxe dining plan this trip, so I made the ADR since I don't think I'd ever make a point of eating there if I have to pay OOP. I really liked Le Cellier the last time I ate there, but that was years ago, and that was for lunch.

Yachtsman will be more adult/romantic. Flying Fish has a better steak(NY Strip).
