    Lobster Bisque
    Matthew A.

    Narcoossee's was the dinner highlight of our stay at the Grand Floridian. We started with the Buttermilk-fried Calamari -- absolutely delicious. What caught us off guard (in the best way) were the pickled vegetables served alongside it. Not mentioned on the menu, but completely underrated. A thoughtful touch that elevated the whole dish. Next up, the Lobster Bisque. Rich, deeply flavored, and beautifully presented. They drop a roughly 2-inch puck of ground lobster tail right in the center of the bowl that slowly melts into the soup as you eat. Really impressive. The sourdough bread that accompanied our meal was a little thick and overdone on the crust for my taste, but the salted butter was genuinely good and made up for it. For our mains, we both went with the Gulf Shrimp Bucatini and couldn't have been happier. Pasta cooked perfectly, sauce was rich and cohesive, and the shrimp were done just right. My only suggestion to the kitchen would be add a heat option as a a little spice would take this from great to an easy 5/5 on its own. On the cocktail front I would suggest the espresso martini, skip the key lime martini. The latter is overly sweet and has a thick, almost syrupy texture that wasn't for me. The espresso martini was wonderful though. The ambience is hard to beat with waterfront views, warm lighting and of course that classic Grand Floridian elegance!

    We had an incredible dining experience at Narcoossee's during our most recent trip to Orlando. After spending the evening doing the monorail loop, this was our final stop--and it was the perfect way to end the night. Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by the hostess and checked in. Since dinner service had just begun, we waited about 15 minutes before being seated. Once at our table, our Cast Member welcomed us and took our drink orders, followed by the bread service, which was outstanding. The warm, soft-yet-crusty sourdough paired beautifully with the butter topped with toasted Himalayan sea salt. For cocktails, I ordered the espresso martini while my wife enjoyed the Grand Margarita. Both were expertly crafted and delicious. For our entrées, we chose the surf and turf--although I jokingly turned mine into a "surf and surf" because I couldn't resist doubling up on the butter-poached lobster! My wife's filet mignon was cooked to a perfect medium-rare, and the lobster tails were absolutely phenomenal--tender, rich, and practically melted in your mouth. The accompanying sides were equally enjoyable. The aged Gouda scalloped potatoes offered a unique twist on a classic dish, while the smoky cauliflower added great flavor and balance to the meal. To finish, we shared the restaurant's famous almond-crusted cheesecake, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. It was the perfect ending to an already fantastic meal. From the service to the food and atmosphere, everything was exceptional. We'll definitely be back on our next visit!

    Overall, the food is pretty good and well thought out. They did make my brisket and ricotta tortellini undercooked but they rectified that. The food is on the expensive side because of the quality of ingredients and elevated flavor profiles. I definitely say it is your money's worth. We ordered a bottle of Prosecco and I liked it. I didn't think it was amazing so I went to look up the price online if I were to buy it. We paid $100 in the restaurant, but I found it for $10 online. That was a little off putting at least give me a $40 bottle of Prosecco for your up charge to $100. Our server was nice but not the high-end server I would've preferred when our bill is like $600. We ordered a lot of food and drinks for our table. She wasn't extremely attendant or quick. When we go to expensive restaurants, the server caliber tends to be overcompensating. Like I said she was nice. The chef did come out to speak with us. Very nice man. Overall, I would return to this restaurant, I just might skip the bottle of Prosecco lol.

    This was our first time dining here and everything was impeccable. We showed up pretty dang early by accident and they were so accommodating. One of the gentleman at the host stand, Mario, made our experience so special. We were taking some selfies since we were really excited about finally eating here and he took us by the water and took pictures of us and then a picture in front of the sign. It's a beautiful restaurant with a great view of the water and you can see Cinderella's castle in the distance. He also had us seated well before our reservation and checked on us during dinner. I love that the servers aren't overloaded. Each server had maybe 3-4 tables so it was very attentive and you never had to track anyone down for refills. It felt very personalized. Narcoossee's started out high with that fresh sourdough loaf and salted butter and it kept getting better. The lobster bisque is poured table side and she explained all the ingredients. It had a good bit of lobster, but it was also super flavorful in the bites that didn't have any. Creamy and delicious. We both ordered the surf and turf. Our steaks were seared and seasoned and cooked exactly to our preferred temperature. The red onion jam was a nice touch. The mashed chives potatoes buttery and whipped. The butter poached lobster melted in our mouth and the carrots were also fantastic. The key lime pie was good and very tart (which I like), but if you eat with your eyes first, it's not visually stunning like the appetizer and entree. The key lime I've seen in the past was breathtaking and this looked more like lemon meringue pie but replace the lemon with lime. It had a nice graham cracker crust which was nice. Overall this was an exceptional meal. From the service to the food, this meal undoubtedly justifies the price and it will not be our last visit.

    This is one of our favorite restaurants at Disney. It has amazing food, service and the best fireworks views around. We always start with cocktails because they are always made with care. We had a dietary restrictions in our group and chef Joe was incredible! He ensured we wouldn't have any issues and visited us multiple times. Maura was a fantastic server and even gave us a special treat since we were celebrating anniversaries. If you've never been you need to put this on your list for the next trip.

    Been a long time so I thought I should update my review. Sat at the bar. Kay was awesome! Lots of great suggestions and accommodations for what we wanted. Had the lobster bisque. Really good. Rich and delicious. The mushroom risotto was intense. Great mushroom flavors and cooked perfectly. Finally we wanted some scallops so we were able to get a side of those...really well done. Delicious. A very nice night at the bar. Staff were amazing.

    Excellent restaurant on the monorail at Disney's Grand Floridian hotel. Exceptional service.

    Pork chop

    We love Narcoossee's, however, they changed the menu and was disappointed by them removing the new york strip and changing the pork chop dish. Still delicious but preferred the other. Also got the salmon dish which I will get next time. You can still get just the filet from the surf & turf but my husband liked the strip. Staff is always welcoming and polite and the ambiance is always delightful.

    After YEARS of wanting to try this spot, we did! And we were not disappointed in the least. This spot was fantastic. The staff was amazing and hardworking! The bread and butter were delicious and our meals were even better. You can't go wrong here with what you order, but the blackened redfish stole the show! Absolutely delicious. I recommend making your reservation an hour-ish before the fireworks. Such beautiful views from this spot. I think it's my new favorite fireworks view on property!

    Calamari
    Noren R.

    Edwin thank you so much for making my birthday dinner a wonderful experience. The recommendations you gave were spot on. We had the calamari which was the star dish. My daughter who doesn't like eating asked for more. That surprised me. The lobster bisque was also super delicious. Very fragrant. I was not a fan of the romaine salad as it had way too much dressing, but the presentation was still beautiful. He also made sure the kid meals were brought out as soon as possible. Their dishes were very tasty and the fruit bowl had the best fruit we've had on Disney property to date. We had strawberries and grapes. Both fruit were surprisingly missing from all the other Disney restaurants we had eaten at. I was so full I couldn't even finish my shrimp and bucatini. My mom had the scallops and she said it was the best meal she's had on our vacation as well. Last the dessert was over the top gorgeous. The lace design on the key lime pie was remarkable. I couldn't believe how pretty and delicious the raspberry sorbet was. There was jello and whale gummy in that dessert. The Nemo cup was also so cute except the cupcake has vanilla custard in the middle which my kids don't like. But fyi get it if your kids would prefer that over gelato on top of jello. I would definitely come back and even stay on site at the property ! Service was impeccable. Everyone was friendly and the outside patio has a nice view of the lagoon. If you go at the right time you can watch the fireworks if you so choose :)

    Wow! This might be our new FAVORITE at Disney World. 1. Like everything else at the Grand Floridian, it is beautiful with a lovely view. 2. The service was good. The chef was sweet to come to our table. My husband informed him that he believed his filet mignon was the best he's had on property. 3. The Lobster Bisque was not only presented beautifully, it was delicious. There was plenty of lobster in it. 4. Even the bread was perfectly flaky. 5. I think the calamari is a must appetizer, the pickled vegetables with it off a lot of flavor. 6. Many employees told me that the shrimp bucatini was their favorite. The noodles are made in house and the sauce was fresh. They did not give a bad recommendation at all, I loved it and am still dreaming about it. Con: The server handed my daughter the menu and told her to pick out her birthday dessert. The dessert was added to our tab. (I do not expect a hand out, but this was not something we asked for or were informed of)

    Excellent food and service. We were seating by a window so had a lovely view. Our server brought out chocolates for our anniversary. It was a wonderful anniversary dinner.

    More than it's food, Narcoossee's offers a great atmosphere, with a chance to see the Magic Kingdom fireworks (including the show's audio that they pipe in over the speakers) from across the water if you time your reservation right. The food, while good, is nothing spectacular. The scallops with gnocchi were creamy and delicious, but I can't say the same for the lobster bisque which tasted mealy and lacked some flavor. The blackened redfish was tasty, but nothing unique. Bottom line: come for the fireworks, the food is just a side perk of this waterside restaurant.

I wish I remembered her name because I would absolutely ask for her again if I go back. My bill for 3 lunches was $205. I don't feel like I got my value for the price. We ate our meals with a paper plate and plastic utensils. Again, for the price, they could give us sturdier eating elements. All in all, it was somewhere I'm glad I experienced just to say I did it.

We've been here before and while it's not entirely inexpensive, it is priced well for what it is. Though it IS a buffet, the lobster itself is served to you one at a time. Good call! The rest of the food offerings are of really good variety and you should find plenty to enjoy here, including cute tasty desserts. Standouts are seafood casserole, cornbread, seafood/shellfish of all types and many salads, sushi rolls, a variety of fish preparations, etc. The drink specials are fun, but will still pad the bill, so we abstained. The staff were all personable and hardworking, with the bar-staff pulling double duty on the floor and still cheerful about it. One HUGE table left a paltry cheap tip for the poor guy, so we gave extra. Don't b a D*CK, people! Restrooms are fine and the wait was minimal. Parking is great on site, at no charge. Yay!

I had avoided the place for some time because I'm not a huge seafood fan, but after wandering through endless corridors and being chased by singing busts, I decided to take my chances. I only wish I had visited sooner. Thankfully, they serve more than seafood. You can also find chicken pot pie, a wedge salad, chicken nuggets, and other options for those who prefer their meals to come from the land rather than the deep. For me, the real treasure was the Land and Sea Trio. It comes with fried shrimp, breaded chicken, battered fish, and corn on the cob. You can choose green beans and carrots, apple slices, or French fries as a side. At $13.99, it's an excellent deal, and the portion is large enough to share with another hungry survivor. Even though I'm not particularly fond of seafood, I thought the fish was surprisingly good. I always see people ordering the lobster roll, and it looks delicious, but because of my shellfish allergy, I have wisely decided not to test whether the afterlife has an emergency room. There is seating downstairs and upstairs, but the upstairs area is my favorite--especially the side with views of the Haunted Mansion. It's a wonderful place to sit in the evening, once the sun disappears and the night takes control of the kingdom. Just be warned: if you hear chains rattling behind you, it may not be a ghost. It could simply be someone coming to steal your French fries.

I ordered the sampler/trio platter, which came with fried shrimp, hush puppies, chicken tenders and fried fish. The hush puppies were probably my favorite part. The shrimp were fine, and the chicken tenders were okay but a little dry. The fried fish was probably my least favorite--it just wasn't particularly memorable. Overall, I think I was expecting a little more from the food. It wasn't terrible, but for us it was definitely more of a "we needed to eat" meal than a "wow, that was good!" meal. I'd still consider it a convenient Magic Kingdom option, especially if you're using mobile ordering, but I wouldn't necessarily go out of my way for the food.
