Oh this looks so good!!! I'm a sucker for any and all things burrata.
Oh you give me hope. I'm trying to get one for 2 weeks from today hoping we can eat that amazing brunch again.I had to change our plans a couple of times on this and found a reservation just a week before! I was so happy to find it and it was definitely worth it!!
Oh sorry to hear this. I had it there in May and it was crispy and deliciousChicken and toast was good too but chicken was not as crisp on the outside.
I somehow was able to keep the fact that there even was a restaurant in the castle away from my daughter until just this last trip we went on. She of course asked about eating there but thankfully I told her its expensive and not good so unless she was paying we weren't going Im such a good motherOk, I’ll start by saying my son wanted to eat inside the castle. I thought it would be a great experience for him too so I went ahead and booked it.
This is perfection! I'm going to have to make something like this at home.Seasonal Fruit for DS5- he wipes this out in 5 minutes! Loved the presentation! So cute! I’ve never seen a restaurant put such effort for fruit!
We've had this before and it is incredible. I do like the oysters better, but that is only because I'll take seafood over pork any day of the week.For my appetizers, I had the Kurobuta Pork Belly! I was debating between this and crispy oysters. I’m so glad I got this! Everything on the plate was great! The pork was melt in your mouth, yummy yummy yummy!!
Gotta say even for a kids meal that is pretty pathetic looking.DS got the shrimp scampi for his main. It looked nicely cooked but very plain. He liked it and ate most of it.
Thankfully for you this looks to be the exact opposite of your sons meal. Flying Fish wasn't on my radar for our next trip but I must have this pasta. It looks divine!got the Sardinian Seafood Pasta. I loved the sauce in this! I would have licked the plate clean! Lol! (It did look like the plate was licked clean because the server who picked it up made a remark about how I didn’t like the dish! Lol!) Again, DS5 took some of my food- the lobster and a scallop!
I'm loving your review! We will be at Disney next week and have booked many of the same restaurants you went to.
excellent review!!!
Really enjoying this report! I'll also be staying at the YC this winter, and will be eating at many of the same places, so definitely looking forward to more reviews
Loving your reviews! We're eating at a lot of the same places next month!
Thanks for following!Joining in on all of your dining adventures!!!

Loving your reviews so far. We are Disney food kindred spirits as Wine Bar George, Cali Grill Brunch and Flying Fish are in my top tier of favorites too. Sorry the CRT meal was a little rushed (and salty) but the experience of dining in the castle is really cool and something everyone should do at least once! Looking forward to more!! Oh and good call on the cab over to the Boardwalk to stay out of the rain... I don't think I would have been smart enough to think of that! But will be keeping it in mind for the future as I am often staying at the Epcot area resorts and dining at FF or one of the Swan and Dolphin restaurants.
Wine Bar George, CG Brunch and FF are also on my list for our next trip! That chocolate dessert....OMG!!!
Excellent reviews Can't wait to read the rest.
So true! I find that the character meals were very lacklustre... even the character interaction was sometimes just ok, a little hurried...We gave up on character meals a few years ago. I think Disney feels we should "forgive" some of the food quality in favor of the characters but I just want good food! Tusker House is the one exception we've made, but its even been a few years since we've been there. If you haven't tried it for breakfast The Wave is like half the price of a character meal but the food quality is 10 times better. It is a smaller buffet but I find the smallness just keeps it fresher
Any chance the sauce on the pasta IS the lobster bisque?! They look the same! Great review, that pork sounds incredible.Day 3- Flying Fish
So it was raining hard by the time we got back to the hotel from Epcot. We tried to wait it out so we can take the boat to the boardwalk but it continued on and on and on until it was 15mins before our reservation. So... We took a cab! Lol! Tip: Uber was much more expensive than the cab at this time!
Arrived at Flying Fish and I was shivering inside! The AC was cranked up! Our server came to the table and I explained we were on the dining plan but wanted to pay out of pocket for DS5. He said that was the best way to use it! First server to tell us that!! I will say all of the servers we had this trip ranged from good to great! Our server this time was really awesome! Flying Fish is one of the few repeats we have from last trip (this and CG brunch were must do for us!)
Onto food!!
Seasonal Fruit for DS5- he wipes this out in 5 minutes! Loved the presentation! So cute! I’ve never seen a restaurant put such effort for fruit!

DH got the Wagyu Filet Mignon. He had it cooked medium. (He usually likes it well done, lol!) he absolutely loved it! Love all of it! The risotto, the steak, the veggie, the sauce were all great! I took a piece of steak and it was very tender and flavourful!

By this point we were full but could not resist dessert! Our server said Cocoa Breach was his absolute most favorite chocolate dessert so we went with that! It was amazing! They poured the sauce to make that indentation on the cake. I think it’s similar to a lava cake. It was very dense and rich. I loved it! DH and DS5 ate all the ice cream but I ate most of the cake.

Overall, I really like this restaurant and will probably be one of the ones we will always come back to. Food and service were both top notch. I love the ambiance too!
No, the sauce on the pasta was definitely tasted more tomato... the lobster bisque was more lobster? Lol I did only have a sip of the bisque. It was delicious though!Any chance the sauce on the pasta IS the lobster bisque?! They look the same! Great review, that pork sounds incredible.

Wow well Morimoto is offically off my list
Sorry to read about your Morimoto meal! We ate there in January and loved it and are going back in a couple weeks with some DIS friends Maybe it's just what you're used to and more fussy about; it sounded like me critiquing Disney's Italian food lol. We also did Cape May breakfast for the first time over July 4th and were surprisingly impressed! My boys are teens so we don't do many character meals anymore but DS13 sometimes requests one and this fit in. We thought the food was really good and there were a couple different items we hadn't seen elsewhere like the crepes and blueberry pancakes. For what we care the characters were good too! But I agree with @kastoney the Wave is much less $$ and except for our last visit the food is just as good with a bit more variety.
What a terrific report, thank you! Looking forward to more!
We are eating at a lot of the same places in October, and we only decided to cancel and replace our Morimoto reservation last week. Following along
