It has been a while since we dined at either of the above mention restaurants. They both redeemed themselves since our last visit and are happy to add them back onto our "list"
Let's start with Le Cellier -
We arrived on time and were told that they were running around 20 to 30 minutes behind which had been one of the problems and among other reasons we had taken them off our list. We only waited about 10 minutes, we were a party of 2. Once seated, we were greeted in a appropriate amount of time, we ordered 2 adult beverages, and set about figuring out what we were going to eat. Our drinks did take a while to get a someone other than our server brought them to us. Once he returned and was very apologetic about the timing, which we really did not see as a big deal. We decided to share an appetizer and ordered " From the Larder" which was cured meats, cheese and accompaniment's, which I have to say was very nicely done and was what we considered a perfect amount to share. I ordered the "Poulet Rouge Coq Au vin" it was a roulade of herb chicken, along with some potatoes and veggies in this sauce that was so good, I would have like a bit more sauce but I prefer a bit more sauce, the portion was huge and it was absolutely just beautiful on the plate. Taste was as good as it looked, chicken was very moist and veggie cooked just done, I had to have a to go box and it was my lunch the next day. DH went with " Black Angus Ribeye, he was very happy with his choice, it was a nice size steak and was quite tasty. We were quite full but pushed on and shared dessert, Which we decided on the Nanaimo Cake - I was concerned as it came with Coconut ice cream and I am allergic to coconut but he assured me that vanilla ice was available and was true so not problems in this area. The cake was quite good, but could have used some more raspberries which is a preference and does not reflect on the cake itself. Overall a solid meal, and great service.
Up next " Liberty Tree Tavern"
We went for lunch, there were 3 of us DH, DGS(2) and me... This restaurant has been off the radar for quite a while, due to the fact we had an absolute terrible meal and service several years ago. We were seated in under 10 minutes. We shared the Crab, Artichoke and Spinach dip which was surprisingly good and we love that bread was given, instead of chips or crackers. DH went with the Burger and it was not a typical Disney burger, it was really quite tasty and the fries were good well, just enough salt. I went with the Fish and Chips, both were served hot, the coleslaw was terrible, tasted like pure vinegar. We order mac and cheese for the little guy... and I was shocked the size of the bowl it was a huge, and DGS dug right in and ate quite a bit... Honestly 2 small kiddos could have shared the bowl, the meal included, a dessert and drink so we went with the apple slices, again a whole bowl of them, and more than enough for 2 small kiddos. Our server was timely and took great care of us. Overall a solid meal, including good service..
So they are welcomed back to our "list"
