NARCOOSSEES AT THE GRAND FLORIDIAN AT DISNEY WORLD, Orlando, Florida
Narcoossees is the extremely popular seafood restaurant at the Grand Floridian. The setting is very charming as it overlooks the lagoon and is a great spot to watch the fireworks at Magic Kingdom from. One can also catch the night-lights show on the lagoon.
Narcoossees is one of the fine dinning restaurants that the Grand Floridian offers. The price points are high and in my opinion the food does not live up to the hype. The scallops was the best dish of the night and their desserts were pretty good but other than that nothing impressed me. Next time, I’d save my Disney dollars and spend them elsewhere
Here is some of what we ate:
Crab Cakes
Crab Salad
Steamed Whole Maine Lobster
Scallops
Crab-Crusted Mahi Mahi
Grilled Filet Mignon
Warm Chocolate-Almond Gateau
Strawberry Shortcake

THE GRAND FLORIDIAN CAFE AT THE GRAND FLORIDIAN AT DISNEY WORLD, Orlando, Florida
The Grand Floridian Café is a casual café, which offers a nice relaxed setting for those who would like to have more leisurely, sit down meals.
The food is reasonably good – a shade better than Gasparilla Grill. I would recommend trying the Lobster Eggs Benedict for breakfast.
The service is a little slow but the servers are very charming and friendly. They spend a good amount of time chatting you up which is a quintessential part of the phenomenal Disney service. So if you are in a hurry to hit the theme parks and don’t want to dwell on your meals, the Grand Floridian Café may not be an ideal choice.
Here is some of what we ate:
PANCAKES
STEAK AND EGGS
LOBSTER EGGS BENEDICT
TWO EGGS WITH BACON AND HOME FRIES

GASPARILLA GRILL & GAMES AT THE GRAND FLORIDIAN AT DISNEY WORLD, Orlando, Florida
Gasparilla Grill is the essential, informal, hang out spot for any family with young kids. It’s a casual cafeteria style; self serve café, which offers a reasonable range of quick foods
The offerings at Gasparilla Grill are superior to the regular hot dog and chicken nugget menu that you get at most kid friendly restaurants. They have a nice selection of hot foods served at each meal and a fresh sandwich bar. They also have a host of cold foods that include sushi, wraps and salads.
Gasparilla Grill is a great option for those who want to eat quickly and get to the theme parks on time.
Here is some of what we ate:
BREAKFAST PLATTER
PANCAKES
HAMBURGER
FLORIDIAN TURKEY CLUB
LASAGNA

THE GRAND FLORIDIAN AT DISNEY WORLD, Orlando, Florida
The Grand Floridian is the grandest of resorts within Disney World. The old world, elegant charm it exudes is unmatched.
The lobby is my favorite spot to hang out in where you can sit and soak in the enchanting ambiance. It’s not unusual to find Cinderella and Prince Charming taking a whimsical stroll through the hotel lobby whispering sweet nothing to each other.
In my opinion, the Grand Floridian offers some of the better food choices within the theme parks and neighboring hotels. They have plenty of restaurants to choose from which cover a good range of price points and sophistication.
Here are a few that we tried:
GASPRILLA GRILL & GAMES
THE GRAND FLORIDIAN CAFE
NARCOOSSEES
1900 PARK FARE
