Narcoossee's

Decided to try one of the couple of restaurants we had not tried yet. Went with Narcoossees at the Grand Floridian Hotel, Walt Disney World. Food was delicious. You can see the castle from your dinner table & if you get there at the right time can catch the fireworks. Would recommend checking it out. Started with king crab for an appetizer and it was delicious. They also brought out fresh baked sourdough loaf. Scallop dish was delicious, and the desserts were really good too. Had 2 kids and usually Disney menu but the shells and cheese was fantastic. The Nemo cupcake was adorable. Even brought out special birthday chocolates. Great waiter from Chicago. Good food. Will definitely be on the places to go back to.

Dining at Narcoossee’s at the Grand Floridian was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we arrived, everything felt magical — exactly what you hope for at Disney World. Our server, Rachid, was absolutely wonderful — warm, attentive, and knowledgeable. He made us feel so welcome and guided us through a fantastic meal. I loved being addressed as a princess! The shrimp and grits were hands-down the best I’ve ever had — rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. We also tried the calamari, which was tender and crisp, and the surf and turf with scallops, which was cooked to perfection. I also loved the espresso martini. To top it all off, the almond cheesecake was delicious — light, creamy, and the perfect sweet ending to a fantastic meal. Highly recommend Narcoossee’s for anyone looking for a special dining experience at Disney. We’ll definitely be back!

This is one of the, if not the best dining on Disney Property. It’s located at the Grand Floridian with views of the Magic Kingdom. The service is impecible and food is creative and delicious. You are greeted warmly and made to feel at home. Our server Hilda made great recommendations and was engaging and felt like a longtime friend. During the fireworks, you have an incredible view and the lights are dimmed and music piped in. You can also go out on the patio to watch if you choose. I highly recommend dining here if you have the chance.

Beautiful atmosphere for dining. Located at The Grand Floridian hotel in Disney World this water front restaurant is highly recommended. Service was amazing. Food was amazing! Menu was not vast but definitely offered top notch options. Surf and turf was a favorite for half our party. Desserts were simple and tasty. Overall an amazing experience!!

Absolutely love Narcoossee's. Food, service & atmosphere 5 stars. The wild mushroom risotto is to die for, so delicious! Our waitress/cast member tonight, Maura, thank you for an exceptional service you were great !! Our reservation was later in the evening which made us stay to catch the MK fireworks. Their balcony has a great view of them!

Trying Narcoossee's is not a decision you will regret. Located on the Seven Seas Lagoon at the Grand Floridian Resort, Narcoossee's serves amazing food with amazing service. We made the decision to dine here for our 20th anniversary dinner. As we ordered our drinks, we were served a fresh sourdough with Hawaiian red salt. It was amazing. I ordered a Sam Adams Cold Snap, while my wife tried one of their Salted Mascarpone Espresso Martinis. We decided to get the Brisket and Ricotta Tortelloni for our appetizer, it did not disappoint. For our entrees, we tried the Filet and the Milk-brined Pork Chop. The filet was good, but the pork chop was amazing. Everything we ate was delicious, no complaints here. To top it all off, we were treated to an anniversary desert. It was an Almond-crusted Cheesecake. It, too, was delicious. Service here feels more personal than most of the other restaurants we have tried in the past. Even though the restaurant was busy, we never had to look for our server. He was constantly checking up on us. Top notch service. The atmosphere was nice. We were lucky and got seated where we could overlook the water. Overall, this is absolutely somewhere I look forward to going back to. If you are looking for a place to try while at Disney, I highly recommend giving Narcoossee's a try. I can't imagine you would be disappointed. It is kind of on the high end of prices, but it's ok to treat yourself while on vacation, right? Make sure to get reservations, don't chance it, and miss out on your opportunity to try some of the best food Disney has to offer! Trip stay // March 30 - April 3 2025 Overall Experience // 10 of 10

My wife and I celebrated our upcoming 10th anniversary here and it was fantastic! We had a table right next to the window looking across the water to Magic Kingdom! The food was amazing and the staff surprised us with a couple glasses of sparkling wine and a couple of chocolates in honor of our anniversary which we enjoyed as we watched the "Happily Ever After" fireworks show taking place right out our window! Thank you for a magical experience on our 1st visit to your restaurant! It won't be our last!

Great food and atmosphere. My only complaint is i talked to the host prior to dining and requested a birthday dessert (which she agreed to) but it never came. After our meal I asked her what happened and she said she forgot. Unfortunately that ruined the experience for me.

We had truly an amazing time here, the meal, the view of the fireworks (which is encouraged with the background music that comes on), and an overall pleasant experience. We made reservations for a Tuesday at 6:50pm, coming from Animal Kingdom, we made it just on time. We were seated at a booth for 6 or more, but it was just us 2 so it was so spacious. For appetizers I ordered the buttermilk fried calamari, which was not a huge portion but the buttermilk flavor was tasty. It also comes with a small side of some veggies. I remember there was a side of bread included which tasted so delicious, I forgot to take a picture. There was salted butter with the bread and it was probably the best bread I've had in Disney World. For entrees, we got the Scallops and Gnocchi, and the NY strip filet. I was hesitant on seafood since it has such a unique flavor, but it did not disappoint! The scallops were so juicy and perfectly plump. Halfway through the meal we went out to enjoy the fireworks, it's a completely different experience than seeing it at Magic Kingdom! Magical in its own way. The waiter covered our meals for us so it wouldn't get so cold when we came back. Highly recommend. You can also walk around and check out The Grand Floridian Resort while you're there, which is a beautiful resort. Modeled after the Hotel del Coronado, which I luckily was able to visit last year and compare.

Worst restaurant we went to on our May 2024 trip. The ambiance and fireworks views were lovely, thats where the 2 stars come in. The food and service was BAD. California Grill still reigns supreme around the Magic Kingdom area. Waitress was nice but she was new and knew nothing about whats in a dish or how many ounces the steak is. This is a signature, expensive restaurant. They should have her shadowing and training with someone knowledgeable, not throwing her out there on her own before she is ready to serve. Management did her wrong and thats the part thats upsetting. The food: The new york strip steak didn't have a good flavor and was low quality, the yuzu ginger salmon flavors were no good, overly salted salmon, sauces on the dish did not taste good at all, side mushrooms were overcooked and oily, their caesar salad (romaine and hearts of palm) barely had any sauce or even greens (way too small a portion) and way overpriced. It was just BAD all around. This was a one and done for us which is a shame because before the refurbishment, we really enjoyed the food. Alot of influencers were saying this is an amazing restaurant so what happened here?? Are they lying or did things change?

Amazing! The experience is worth it! The food is good, but not incredible wow. Service was good in that my water was never empty. Waitstaff team worked well together. The menu was not overly priced, but portions were not large either. Best part is get a table around 8:30 (or when Magic Kingdom does the fireworks) as you can see beautifully around the table and best yet around the patio of the restaurant. The fireworks music is piped in so it a great escape from the crowds! You can also see the electric parade of floats.

A resort restaurant that is known for good food. So lots of reviews are saying 4 or 5 stars.... Well, let's tap the brakes. It is a restaurant at Disney, and it has all the things you might find at there: jam packed seating, happy and unhappy kids, noise and excitement of all types. The food was good, not great, and the prices were way too high. The service was very good and we did not leave hungry. I reservedly recommend it, but know that you will pay resort prices here.

Narcoossee's sits at the edge of the Seven Seas Lagoon with a charming view of the MK castle and the Contemporary Resort. Having made reservations for dinner my husband and I were seated promptly. Our waiter was friendly and helpful with some dining suggestions. Some of their menu items are called "enhancements" meaning you cannot order them by itself but rather pair it with an entree. I wasn't overly hungry so I was able to "pair" my lobster tail with my husband's roasted vegetable paella. That entree is vegan and according to him turned out to be a bit spicey. I ordered the brisket and ricotta tortellini which our waiter recommended as a favorite appetizer. We were served breaded with special butter-the latter was a bit peppery for me so I ended up with regular butter. We did have to wait some time for our food but it did not disappoint! The brisket and ricotta tortellini made a flavorful and filling combination and was just the right size for me. The butter poached lobster tail was small but with drawn butter also brought out the flavor. Although my husband wasn't altogether pleased with the paella he ate the whole thing anyway since he had said it was otherwise good. Narcossee's has a dress code but you can get away with jeans and a nice top-business casual is what I would say. Reservations are a must since this place is very popular and hard to secure them. Located on the grounds of the Grand Floridian resort, Narcossee's sits right by the boat launch that will take you to both the Polynesian Resort and the Magic Kingdom. The resort monorail is located in the main building and the resort has its own parking lot.

I just want to preface this before anything is taken the wrong way. My party and I absolutely love Disney and love eating at all the restaurants. We wanted to try Narcoosee's as it was one of the last resort restaurants on our list that we hadn't tried. We went by the reviews and booked a reservation. After our meal there, we were saddened to say that the food (not the experience) was just completely average. This is why I'm genuinely confused by these 5 star reviews. The consensus at the table was "Disney prices, for an average meal". That was what all of us were the most upset about. The pricing. Obviously you're in Disney, it's going to be expensive. However if you're going to pay this kind of money, you expect the food to be great, and it simply wasn't. We ordered a little bit of everything to really get a taste for the menu. We'll start with the good! The brisket ravioli was fantastic (5/5) and the mushroom risotto was very good as well (4/5). The rest of the appetizers were okay. The lobster bisque was one of the better one we've all had in Orlando, but agreed the only thing that separated it/ gave it an edge from just a standard bisque was the vanilla foam - 3.5/5. The calamari was pretty much your basic calamari. Lightly breaded and tender. Which is great! - 3/5 The other two apps were a little disappointing. The shrimp and grits were not good. Unfortunately we had to send them back. The barbecue sauce kind of ruined it for us. - 1/5 The salad pictured below was delicious! However the problem we had was that there was barely any of it. Seriously I don't know if that was even a handful of greens. For $15 you would hope to get more. Flavor: 5/5! Portion/ 2/5 All the entrees were very average. The scallop with gnocchi ($54) entree we gave a 3/5 and the bucatini ($42) was also a 3/5 So overall! The seafood was fresh, there's no doubt about that. The service was fantastic. Veronica was our server. She was efficient and very personable. Clearly a professional at her job and we loved her! We're just disappointed that you should expect more out of the food set at this price point. There are better restaurants on property to spend this kind of money on.

Aghhhh... SO wonderful, I am not even sure where to start. Perhaps at the beginning. Okay so I'm a ding dong and insisted to my partner that our reservation was for 7:30. It was not. It was an hour earlier. No problem. We waited like 5 minutes and they seated us. We were informed that they could hold off on bringing our meal until after fireworks so it did not get cold. We were certain we would not care to watch fireworks on their lovely deck and politely declined. Cut to fireworks- I am like a moth to the flame and cannot resist this prime and very romantic viewing spot so I step out onto the deck to partake as does my partner. When we come back inside, our dinners have been covered and our napkins and silverware freshly replaced. Day five into our two week Disney trip and I had been going pretty hard, so I opted for an appetizer as an entree and decided to forgo Alcohol for the evening as well. The ocean inspired charcuterie was effing outrageous in the best way. The waiter took the time to present it to me, explaining each component. He suggested I try one of each component in each bite, as that is how the dish is "intended". Much like the great Gordon Ramsey, I don't prefer being instructed on how to eat my dinner :) I tried it that was but preferred savoring each part on its own. Either way, it was a delicious dish. The service was brilliant, as was the food, and for the dessert, well my picture says it all. Magnifiquè! My only complaint are inconsiderate assholes who bring their children to a restaurant like that, later in the evening, who then (understandably) misbehave and then ignore it as if everyone else in the restaurant spending several hundred dollars on dinner is supposed to do the same. Okay I digress. Can't wait to return! LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS PLACE!

We made dinner reservations at Narcoosses about five weeks before we got there. We were celebrating my husband's birthday, so it was special occasion. We were all dressed up, we actually called ahead of time to see if we could push our reservation and there was no such luck, no such availability... They were completely booked. I highly recommend making a reservation for this popular dinner spot. There were also people waiting outside. Upon arrival, we didn't have to wait long to be seated. We had a beautiful, lake view-booth and a wonderful server. She was really great in explaining the menu and its entirety. The place itself is gorgeous, beautiful view, great service. Definitely, pricey for what you would expect. Great seafood options. Unfortunately, their salmon, although organic and raised wild, was not wild caught. That's exactly what I would've wanted, it looked so good. So I opted for the shrimp and pasta dish. My husband got the fillet, my mother-in-law ordered the scallops. My son ordered and steak off of the kids menu, and my father-in-law, ordered the pork roast. What I will say, which blew my mind. Is the portions. The fillet was gigantic, the pork roast nearly took up the entire plate, so it's definitely shareable if that's something that you like to do. We started with a blueberry salad, which was yummy, not a huge portion. They also bring out complimentary bread. The only thing that ticked my husband and father-in-law off is that they both ordered Wellers and it came out Angels Envy. They told the server, who told the bartenders. One of them didn't seem to care and the other one ran over, apologetically, admitting his mistake. We didn't really care-an honest mistake. It was just weird the way it happened. That was the only smudge and the whole experience. They brought over a very small dessert for my husband to celebrate his birthday. They also brought out a complimentary cupcake for my son with Nemo on it, which was so cute. Overall, this is definitely a fine dining experience. however, it's worth it for the delicious food, great menu options, and beautiful view, and great service.

Narcoossee's is back! Despite going to WDW for the past 20 years, I had never heard of this place until we watched Tim Tracker review it, calling it his favorite WDW restaurant! We booked our reservation for 5:50 on Christmas Day. Service: Our server, Desman was everything and more! He had jokes, history, and of course was great in letting us know that the restaurant does accommodate for everyone, even the individuals who are just there for the free bread and fireworks view! I had the Brisket & Ricotta Tortelloni and it was fabulous! The cream sauce was sweet from the raisins and the perfect accompaniment to the tender pulled brisket! I also tried the Pork Chop and it was tender and moist! Desserts: We got the coquito creme brulee (most likely a holiday offering since coquito is known as an alcoholic coconut eggnog) and pineapple bavarois. Both I would say are an acquired taste, which someone in my party referenced eating both desserts to be similar to trying soap at lush, but for me, the creme brulee was alright! Overall, this is a steeper price point, but definitely worth it for the quality of food, special water, theme park view, and quality of the staff! As for the desserts, I would probably just skip them and hop on the monorail for a dole whip at the polynesian.

Great views of the water and a nice walk through the Grand Floridian resort. Service was great, very attentive! Food was delicious, one of my new favorites. Tried the Gulf Shrimp Bucatini, it was amazing, and added scallops! The Key Lime Pie Martini was good too! Would definitely recommend this place and will be going back!

Great restaurant and service. Started our evening at the bar with Sergio and he was a awesome guy and bartender! For dinner we sat and got a view of the light show and fireworks! Great ambiance! For food we ordered the ocean charcuterie plate and the flavor, freshness and variety was great. For a main I ordered the surf and turf and the steak was perfectly cooked and amazing. Great evening and highly recommend.

Popped in for a drink before the fireworks. It was stunning inside with a mouthwatering smell once you walked in. Sergio was our bartender and he was so nice and made a fantastic margarita!

We've been going to Disney World for years, but have never tried Narcoosee's until recently. They also just completed an extensive renovation, and I have to say, they did a wonderful job. It's been updated without losing any of its former charm. We actually were in there once, years ago, but it was so dusty and dated, we walked right out. The service was friendly, and the views are unbeatable. I actually enjoyed watching the fireworks from the wraparound porch over the water even better than the sky deck at The California Grill. It was just more pleasant, and cozy. And the food was really good. Obviously there is an emphasis on seafood, the shrimp and grits, and the shrimp pasta were both excellent. As was the lobster bisque. And both the pineapple bavarois dessert and the almond cheesecake. We really enjoyed our experience here, and would definitely come back.

One of my favorite meals on property. Panoramic seating on the water. I always order the surf and turf. You can go outside to watch the fireworks from Magic Kingdom and the electric water parade. Do not pass on the almond cheesecake-one of the best desserts on the property!

Please do yourself a favor and make a reservation here!! An amazing restaurant for a romantic evening by the water, Narcoossee's is the place to have a beautiful meal while enjoying the fireworks of Magic Kingdom. The service from the waitstaff was very pleasant, the ambiance gives low, intimate lighting with gorgeous Cinderella blue cielings. At Narcoossee's you truly feel the "magic" of Disney during dinner. You can dine inside, and also have the option to walk onto the balcony and enjoy the firework show. The scallops and mushroom risotto, paired with the margarita cocktail was absolutely delectable. Thank you for a great evening Disney!!

Had a really nice date night here recently. The restaurant felt very intimate and had amazing views of the Seven Seas Lagoon and Magic Kingdom castle. The cocktails were very tasty (and strong - no complaints!) We then had the romaine and hearts of palm salad with the lobster bisque. The soup was 10/10 but probably could've done without the salad. The main courses/sides were spectacular - definitely dont skip the sides! We had the loaded mashed potatoes and the wild mushroom risotto - honestly, they were nearly better than the main courses themselves. The gnocchi with the scallops was very good and we loved the bucatini and shrimp - you can definitely taste that the pasta is house-made, super delicious.

Great ambiance and food and an amazing place to watch the fireworks! We really loved this place.

This is a meal I will be thinking about for awhile. I don't love seafood so I ordered the tortellini, the lobster bisque and the romaine and hearts of palm salad. The bisque and brisket tortellini were beyond delicious-- I wasn't blown away by the salad but if you are looking for something light and refreshing it was good just not something that will have me thinking about it. THE REAL STAR--the almond cheesecake. I wanted to go back the next day and get another one. The almond flavor and the creaminess-- I have never had anything like it before.

The food here and ambience is so lovely. Elevated dishes with while still being family friendly and relaxing atmosphere. Everything from the appetizer, to the entree to the dessert, we ordered was consistently delicious and flavorful. Our server was very upbeat and friendly, which you sometimes don't get at Disney's "higher end" restaurants. Will definitely come back!!

3.5 stars! We tried Narcoossee's for the first time recently. I had heard really good things and was excited to try this restaurant. All of the staff were really nice and Josh, our server, was wonderful! We were seated at a window table with a nice view of the water - however, people ended up blocking our view of the fireworks by standing out on the wraparound porch so if you are wanting to see the fireworks, I recommend timing your meal to end prior to the fireworks and staying to watch or asking your server to pause your meal so you can get up and watch outside. The complimentary bread and butter were good. For starters we ordered the buttermilk-fried calamari and the brisket and ricotta tortelloni. Both were okay. I wasn't the biggest fan of the calamari because the squid didn't seem fresh and had a bit of a fishy aftertaste. The tortelloni had great flavor but only came with 3 pieces, so not great for sharing. For entrees my parents enjoyed the yuzu-ginger salmon, and the plancha-seared scallops with parisian gnocchi. They really liked their food. My husband enjoyed the prime new york strip and was in the clean plate club. I ordered the surf and turf. I should have asked ahead of time but their filet mignon was dry aged, which I don't care for. The lobster though was perfect and I liked the mashed potatoes. We also tried the wild mushroom risotto and it was too cheesy in my opinion. We ended our meal with the famous almond crusted cheesecake which was good but nothing special. My mom had asked for a decaf coffee with dessert and Josh had originally forgot about it but gave it to us in a to-go cup before we left and apologized by giving us a 10% discount which was above and beyond what we were expecting. Overall service was amazing but I unfortunately wasn't wowed by the food. My parents and husband really liked the food so I would like to come back and try different items!

We were able to visit prior to their shit down to refurbish. Our friend's made this reservation for our group of 4. Located on the Grand Floridian property, I was curious as to why this location. Within 30 minutes it became apparent. You have a fantastic view of the Magic Kingdom fireworks. The restaurant overlooks the Seven Seas Lagoon. So not only do you have the fireworks, but you can also view the Electrical Water Pageant. Server was friendly and attentive. She told us of the coming refurbishment. I ordered the special of the evening, Lobster Tails. Plus, there were good white wine selections to pair with my Lobster Tails. We had a lovely dinner and I look forward to seeing this spot after the refurbishment.

Look - there's no doubt that the food, ambience, and location are great. It's a high end restaurant at the premier Disney resort, what do you expect? Unfortunately, my visit here was tainted by frankly rude and inflexible management, atrocious coordination between the reservation assistants and the restaurant, and tense service. This restaurant will not seat more than 6 people at a table. My friend planned a birthday dinner here for 8, and was told over the phone that she could simply make two reservations for 4 and the restaurant would put us all at one table. When we arrived, we were told that the people we spoke to know nothing about the restaurant and that they simply gave us wrong information. Too bad there literally isn't a way of calling the restaurant directly to confirm - if we had known, we would have gone somewhere else. To make matters worse, rather than accommodate the error, management insisted that our group either split up or leave. The place wasn't full by any means, but no one allowed us to rearrange a single table or even place chairs at the end of tables as it was "against policy." My friend had done a lot of research and knew she wanted to eat here, so to get this response was very disheartening. We kept suggesting solutions, but they all fell on deaf ears. Management got more and more annoyed. We eventually agreed we would be able to sit in a 6/2 configuration, but even though we were told it would work, they simply left us standing for another 10 minutes as they "checked" if the empty tables in the mostly empty restaurant were available. At one point, a waitress pushed past us and remarked, "it's called a WALKway." Once we got seated things calmed down a bit, but we were getting looks from management. The one saving grace was that our server Tom was delightful. He made sure we had everything we needed, and kept high spirits. Narcoossee's has good food, with a good view of the fireworks in magic kingdom. I can't say my party had a good time. Book with caution.

Let me start off by saying this was the best meal and the best service I have ever had on Disney property and yes I have been to Topolino's for dinner. This blew Topolino's OUT THE WATER! Josh was our server if you get him he is going to be SPECTACULAR and then I believe Matt was the manager at the time (we went May 2nd for 7:40pm if I am wrong so sorry!). The service was astounding, the actual restaurant was quaint and small but also the perfect size. If this wasn't what I considered "luxury dining" I would go once a week. Seafood is my favorite type of food and I cannot express how well they did. The lobster bisque pulled me in and the Salmon put the cherry on the cake. The Key Lime Pie Martini was out of this world! I spoke with the waiter before ordering because I have never had a Martini before and he said the only thing that makes it a Martini is the glass it comes in haha. I definitely will only ever order one from here if thats the case because it was DELICIOUS. Nothing was overly salted (unlike at Topolino's) and the flavors were so so good. The best part is if you do time your reservation right you can see and hear the fireworks PERFECTLY. They turn the lights down and the speakers inside play the same audio as if you were standing in front of the castle. I cannot boast about this place enough if you have the extra money to spend and you want to splurge THIS is the restaurant. They just reopened and I hope they don't need renovations for a LONG time because this place is too good to keep closed. Again I would like to thank Josh & Matt (hopefully the name is Matt) for making our night so special and to whoever cooked our meals they hired the right person!

This is an incredible dining experience five stars!! This is without a doubt the best food on Walt Disney property, even better than topolinos and California Grill. We loved the Bread service with the Himalayan salt, and started the night with the seafood charcuterie, shrimp and grits appetizer, along with the amazing table-side poured lobster bisque. Our server Josh gave us incredible service, and was very attentive, and allowed us to stay the full two hours and watch the fireworks from our table. The redfish entrée is tender fresh with an incredible spicy sauce. All of the seafood at Narcoossee's was spiced and cooked perfectly! The ambiance is stellar as you can see the fireworks right from your table by the window and they pipe the music in the restaurant! 5/5

Had a great time at the reopening of Narcoossee's this weekend! They were closed for quite a while for refurbishment and it is beautiful! I haven't dined before the change so I can't say whether I like the new look better or not but it is for sure fresh and modern! Nice classy vibe to it. There were only two of us and it looks like the tables they have for small parties are "inside" or more so the middle of the restaurant which was my only complaint. It wasn't terrible but I felt really close to everyone else and was right in the way of immediate traffic from the servers. Service was great as Disney service typically is. Our server was so sweet and friendly which I always love. It was a bit slow to get things (my whole dinner took about 3 hours) but maybe this is because they're reopening? It didn't bother me too much but I'd rather not be there that long. Drink menu was new and I had the White Sangria. It was perfect - not too sweet and not too dry! Super refreshing! The lobster bisque was my absolute favorite! I could eat maybe 5 bowls of that and be satisfied! I also had the brisket tortelloni which reminded me of the short rib wontons from California Grill. I liked them but would prefer Cali Grill over these. For an entree I had the Gulf Shrimp Bucatini which was fabulous! I also added scallops to it which took it up another notch. The shrimp were plenty and quite large. The only thing I didn't like was the sauce was almost flavorless, needed salt or something but the shrimp and scallops helped it. For dessert, I had the almond crusted cheesecake and WOW - this is what they're known for for a reason! Perfectly sweet and the almond crust was my favorite. I also got to enjoy the fireworks from not just outside of the restaurant but from my seat. The views are pretty good no matter where you sit. They dim the lights inside and play the soundtrack from the firework show as well which makes you feel like you're there! All in all, I'd return and try some new items!

When it comes to service Disney always delivers, Our server Amir was great didn't skip a beat, even when the kitchen had a minor setback he stepped right up. Food was delicious. The Shrimp pasta was very good. The Brisket appetizer was Great. New York strip was very good as well. Lobster bisque very Good, Drinks were also on point. The ambience was nice and slightly casual. It's a little pricey but it's worth it.

Nice environment/view and ambiance in the Grand Floridian, overlooking the water. Food was great, had the scallops, red fish, and Brussels to start - all were tasty. If you want great seafood, this is the place to go!

Excellent restaurant-love it.. very very good!! Food, drinks, service & atmosphere!! -at The Grand Floridian Hotel overlooking Magic Kingdom

We love Narcoossee's. Our family spent two weeks at the Grand Floridian to attend Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween and Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Parties 2023. The fact that it's located at the resort makes it perfect for Grand Floridian guests. The recent remodel is beautiful. We dined there three times this stay and never had the least complaint. The new sourdough bread is in a class of its own. We tried the blackened redfish, surf and turf, shrimp dish and the prime New York strip. All were very special. Be sure to note they supply a bottled water or seltzer water when you sit down. I loved the seltzer water and appreciate the fact they don't use the regular nasty Disney tap water. Lastly, the almond crusted cheesecake is a must-have.

This was amazing! By far the best meal on Disney property and honestly one of the best we've ever had. Jason our server went above and beyond. The food, service, and ambience is why we will be returning to eat there again tomorrow for dinner after we went tonight. The scallops and red snapper dishes were wonderful! Highly Recommend :)

Great service and delicious food!! This Restaurant on the lake at The grand Floridian resort one side is all glass she can see out to the lake you can see the castle and space Mountain from your table we watched the electric water parade and Magic kingdoms fireworks from our table as well as we ate our supper. The filet mignon is delicious and so is the shrimp scampi shrimp scampi had plenty of shrimp and nice and plump we left nothing behind also the side of the molasses brussels sprouts is delicious and I had a strawberry sorbet for dessert with coffee and that was was fabulous! They have a full bar wine and champagne it is beautiful on the inside and out I can't wait to come back here.

HUGE fan of this place! First off, the service is outstanding. Josh, our server (and fellow Bronx native), was fantastic throughout the meal. Not overly attentive yet not MIA either...he got it just right. Let's talk wine. By the glass, this place is SOLID. They offer Opus, Caymus, and Far Niente right off the bat - you seriously cannot miss if you are looking for a solid wine to accompany your meal. However, it was their signature Old Fashioned which included - and I'm telling you, this WORKED - a rosemary sprig, which was the highlight from the bar. I Ernie Bank's this one and played two. Let's talk food. The starters are solid. The tortelloni was delicious, but there were only three to the serving. The calamari was the same way: absolutely lights out, yet not a lot of quantity. So remember: this is a place with a kickass chef, and these appetizers are made to be just enough to get things going. Now on the main courses: their buccatini with shrimp was FANTASTIC. Cannot recommend it highly enough. The flavor was off the charts. Let's talk ambiance. We enjoyed this fantastic dinner while the fireworks went off at the Magic Kingdom, and they allowed us all to stand our their balcony and enjoy the show as they also played the accompanying music. The restaurant itself is newly renovated, and the bar is OUTSTANDING. Let's talk price. This one is pricey, and you seriously get what you are paying for here. I've been to my share of over-priced and under-performing places, and this is NOT one of those. Yes, this one will make you sweat when the bill comes (a little or a lot, depending on your bar selections for the evening) - but the juice is worth the squeeze here. Score an ADR for this place for a date night or a special occasion, and have a blast.

The crowds during the Magic Kingdom fireworks are messier than the Beast trying to eat with a spoon. The people who need some personal space pay close to $99 - $114 for the fireworks dessert parties, that include a designated spot to watch the fireworks and some sweet treats to enjoy before or after the show. However, if you snag a reservation at Narcoosees, the restaurant provides outdoor viewing spots to the fireworks that are less crowded and pipe in the music from the show. For the price of drinks and apps, it's a magical experience.

Was looking forward to our first time at Narcoossee's in a good while since they remodeled, it, found it a very cold, uneventful, and just average food experience for Disney World. The place is loud not a lot of audience will not return too many other places at Disney to eat this is place is overrated.

We wanted to try this restaurant as they had recently reopened after undergoing renovations. The decor is much better aligned with the menu prices now. Do not expect a quiet and relaxed meal though. It was very loud and our server was running from table to table. There was a big push to upgrade or add items to our check unlike any other meal at Disney. It felt like a cheap diner where the goal was to get the biggest check and get you out. The positive was the food. It was flavorful and well presented. Even though we were celebrating an anniversary which the host had confirmed, the server just brought a happy birthday dessert out. When the meal is $200+ you hope to make it memorable. It was worth dinning here once but we won't be back.

Easily one of the best meals I've had on Disney property. Everything was cooked to perfection! Our server, Jai, was so knowledgeable and friendly and the relaxing, beachy atmosphere was simply wonderful!

Never disappoints, even running late with a monorail mistake they were amazing with service, food is always fresh and delicious- specifically the shrimp and grits they are mouth watering good. The ambiance is wonderful over looking the lake towards Magic Kingdom. Highly recommended.

Great upscale dining experience at the GF. Food is top notch, however, IMO, their seafood has a bit too much salt. Steak is cooked perfectly. Pasta is delicious. Fried egg plant is a must. Fried calamari is good but nothing special. Service is great. Cocktail drinks executed well. Atmosphere feels $$$, just like the bill.

Pictures don't even do it justice! We dined here a few years ago on our Disney trip, the whole family voted it the best dining experience! Best food, best service, best everything! This time we dined there again, again the whole family voted it the best dining experience... In fact we loved it so much that we dined there two times on this Disney trip! Everything came out so perfect both times... very very impressed with the chefs at Narcoossee's

My partner and I were a walk in when the restaurant was full. Andy the greeter could not have been more nice and accommodating. He fit us in at a table promptly and made us feel very welcome! Edwin our server was very kind and the food was top notch. Best meal I have had since being in Disney!

We had the most amazing meal at Narcoossee's for a friend's birthday/ bachelorette dinner. Everything we ate was amazing. The bread was delicious and served warm. For appetizers we split the Brisket and Ricotta Tortellini and the calimari. The tortellini was amazing. We had a party of 6 so we each split a tortellini and let me tell you, they were delicious. The lobster bisque was the most unique and delicious bisque I've ever tasted. The vanilla foam adds a richness of flavor that I can't even properly describe. The shrimp bucatini was also delicious. Everyone at our table enjoyed every crumb of food we ate. Our waiter Josh, was also superb. He was attentive, fun and even brought us a small sweet treat at the end even though we had declined dessert because we were all so stuffed. Special shout out to Ellen, who was not our server, but came to our table and offered to take our photos outside along the water with the castle in the background. These photos were the best ones from our trip and we are so appreciative. She did this on her own, unprompted and it was so special. We will definitely return. One of the best meal experiences I've had at Disney if not the best!

Very very good food. A bit pricy but well worth it. Sit on the water and enjoy the magic kingdom fireworks go off at 9pm. The lights dim and music turns on for the event which adds to such a great ambiance. The service was amazing and our waiter Desmond was fantastic. Seemed like a really great dude!

Visited Narcoossee's for the first time last night, and we were very happy with our experience. It's definitely not a cheap experience, but we understood that going in. The newly redecorated room was highlighted in colors from the sea. Very pretty. We had a lovely window table with a nice view of the water with Epcot and the Magic Kingdom in the distance. It was fun watching the boats come and go between parks and hotels. Our server was very good and started us with a large bottle of sparkling water with wedges of lemon and lime. We decided to forgo drinks to spend a little more on dinner. Good decision! We ordered one entree, the thick rib-eye pork chop that was juicy and really delicious. It came with a unique layered potato side and veggies, then we added the buttered lobster tail as an "enhancement". Instead of a second entree, we ordered the blackened shrimp and grits appetizer. It had a tangy chow chow relish and a tomato-y drizzle. Really good! We ordered two additional sides to round it out...the crispy Brussel sprouts...YUM! and the FANTASTIC wild mushroom risotto which was super creamy. For dessert, I ordered something I'd never had before but always wanted to try, a berry pavlova which is meringue piped into a shape and slowly baked till it's crisp on the outside but soft inside. This was light, but sweet, served with berries on top and the plate was decorated with a lemon paste rainbow and a lemon cream sauce our server poured on the plate into a Mickey-shaped head. I loved it! If you're going to spend a bunch on dinner, you want to be happy with the food, and we were.

Service: excellent. Food: excellent. View: priceless. the redfish was delicious! The view of the castle was the cherry on top! Definitely top tier for Disney dining. Pricey, but to be expected.

Restaurant at the grand Floridian hotel at Disney. Showed no reservations but did a waitlist and showed up and had table ready. Food was excellent, great view of the water and service was excellent.

I absolutely love visiting this place when I'm in Orlando. The food & service are truly top notch. From the fresh bread which paired lovely w/the lobster bisque, to the perfectly cooked filet, followed by the best almond cheesecake on the planet, this place is just phenomenal! Everything was presented beautifully as well. It was nice because after dinner, we got to enjoy a beautiful firework show out on the gazebo. My whole family enjoyed dinner here very much. A+ Narcossee's!

4.5* but "for price paid" brings it down a notch. Staycation at Bay Lake Tower brought us here. We thought (incorrectly) that they had outdoor dining but decided to stay when we saw the super high ceiling and well- spaced tables. Were intrigued by the Eggplant appetizer but our server strongly suggested the Shrimp and Grits. So glad we asked her opinion! Get this!! And an Old-Fashioned. And the Almond-Crusted Cheesecake for dessert. We've been fans of this cheesecake since it was $8. Think we paid $16 this time. Truly quite good, but they're pushing it. Would've gotten additional cheesecake(s) to-go, but that's steep even for Disney. Will be back for Shrimp and Grits and cheesecake.

I came here for a late night bite and was pleasantly surprised. The place is nice enough inside, but as always be kind because I got the impression they wI ordered the scallops, which were full of flavor and cooked to perfection. I was surprised by how large the plate was as I thought I ordered the small portion, but the bill told me otherwise! Service was quick and maybe a little over-zealous as they took my friends' soup when they weren't quite finished with it when we briefly went out to see the fireworks. Overall though this might be the best for you can get on Disney property.

Note: the pics are half orders because we told our server we were sharing everything and they split it in half for us so thoughtful. Thanks so much, Ms.Maureen aka Moe (you're the best!) Get the dessert wine moscato (la spinetta, italy 2019). It's sweet and smooth. We should have ordered the bottle The bread was ok but paired with the butter drizzled with hawaiian salt.. it was delicious I will come back for their lobster bisque again and again. It was the most delicious lobster bisque I've ever had. So creamy and delicious. It goes down warm and soothing. It even had large lobster pieces in it. The calamari was ok too. I've tasted better. I wouldn't order again though. The pan seared george's bank day boat scallops were bomb! Get them! It has ham and truffles as well as gnocchi. The sauce is so good we wanted to dip our bread in them and enjoy every last drop Last but not least was our desert: tiramisu for our anniversary. We wanted the cheesecake but we were too full. We will come back and try those next time for sure.

So happy they re-opened and are better than ever. Came back for a second time during a very short visit to WDW.
