You guys have become one of my favorite vloggers. I enjoy all your videos and love Mike's commentaries. Thanks for sharing!

[@TheMagicDads]

Wow, thank you!! Thanks for watching :)

[@stevenpluff6481]

Flying Fish is my absolute favorite restaurant on property. Never had a bad meal or service. We generally just sit at the bar when we go. Got surprised last time we were there with a free cup of soup; it was their way of saying welcome back. My wife's favorite place is Narcoossees

[@carolinechristiansentravel]

So glad to hear they stepped it back up again!!

[@nicb2073]

100% agree Topolinos is the best steak on property!!! Flying Fish is on my list, we just never get to time to go to Boardwalk! We love staying at Caribbean Beach so Topolinos is an easy sky liner ride!! Thanks for the video! Hope you all are having a great summer!!! 😊

[@robynellen859]

cant wait to watch interested to see the vlog, and how dinner was; hope all is well!!

[@TheMagicDads]

Thanks! Enjoy!!!

[@christine3507]

So happy it redeemed itself! If you're there on a grown-ups trip, the bar is definitely a fun place to sit. The bartenders are incredible. Totally agree with you, Mike, on the hand-wash-only glasses ... Disney has so many of them and it's really annoying.

[@TheMagicDads]

Hahaha, yup! Even if it's at Williams-Sonoma - if it can't be thrown in the dishwasher, it doesn't come home with me.

[@EricMobley1]

Thank you for this! My husband and I went to Flying Fish the first week it reopened after being closed during the pandemic. We both thought it was incredible! We went back in May of this year and I was a tad disappointed. The service seemed a little rushed, food didn't seem as good. It wasn't a terrible experience, but I wouldn't rush back. Appreciate your honesty & love your channel!

[@jennib11]

Oh dinner looked so good. Give Toledo a try, we loved their steak. :)

[@robertklinker3237]

Diane here: great glass? fish+bubbles; love smores dessert; Gotta make pork belly sandwiches at home now !

[@jillgates3401]

The bar at Flying Fish was great! Lots of great interaction with the bar staff and the food was great. The pork belly is the best dish at FF.

[@TheMagicDads]

Sooo good!!!

[@Jackie-xr4gq]

Flying Fish is a must do for us, we love the potato wrapped snapper. Like you, we prefer Topolino’s for steak. Caleb was hilarious, love his personality. He is really growing up! And he is so sophisticated for a boy his age.

[@TheMagicDads]

He's growing up WAY too fast!!!

[@allison6954]

LOL Caleb was NOT feeling that shrimp! That was the cutest reaction. 😂

[@TheMagicDads]

LOL, I know right? I was initially going to edit it down to cut the long gap, but decided to keep it from a parent-perspective so I could remember it. He felt bad for having to give a thumbs down lol.

[@allison6954]

@@TheMagicDads Too funny ! I agree with your choice to keep it in. It was perfect lol.

[@bridgiemarie]

Izzy is our favorite server at our favorite restaurant on property. So glad you got to experience the best!

[@meikamatook1307]

Your videos are always so fun! I love watching and rewatching them ☀️

[@TheMagicDads]

Thank you so much!!

[@Carynhaywood]

I really enjoy Caleb’s food reviews 😊

[@marshamason3319]

Love the FF review …haven’t been since pre-covid. Need to go back!! I also have those glasses and love them! We love Abracadabar and I make the Peppers Ghost in my glasses - delish!! 🤩

[@TheMagicDads]

It was great, definitely recommend you check it out again. The glasses were so cute!

[@kkandrj3419]

Love your food reviews. Very honest and I feel like I can trust what you have to say.

[@vickiemendoza9252]

Is there a dress code at Topolino's Terrace? Sweet Caleb didn't want to give a bad review of Flying Fish! ☺

[@Mangomartinisful]

Explored the boardwalk our last trip! Can’t wait to spend more time there, thank you for the review!!

[@TheMagicDads]

Thanks for watching!!

[@allisonabbott-kline4765]

You had me at Blue cheese stuffed olives.....

[@ilsehunt6338]

Glad you tried flying fish again as it’s on my list !

[@TheMagicDads]

It's a great spot, we really like it. Just the one bad trip.

[@mise7372]

you found Dizzy Izzy! so yearsss ago pre storybook dining at Artist pt he was our waiter and brought us samples of the great mushroom soup (which is still there) then I heard years later he was at Contemporary. 3 times at Flying Fish, 1st time good, potato wrapped snapper and it was good. other trip eh. last trip got the pork belly and seared steak. so good

[@TheMagicDads]

Izzy was great!

[@Mutilatedd]

Were you talking about the filet at topolinos when you said they have the best steak on property? Trying to decide where to treat myself next week when I'm down there 😂

[@lynnezaun1218]

We have dined there many times over the years. My hubby never met a scallop he didnt like so his go to meal was always scallops. I was more adventurous and had fish and meat. I was lucky enough to have a wonderful filet cooked perfectly. Is the r e a reason you don't send food back if your food is not cooked to your taste? Glad to see that the flying fish is still going strong. BTW, those martinis and pork belly and bread looked delicious.

[@TheMagicDads]

I've always been reticent to send food back. It's totally one of my silly things, but I just don't very often. If it's completely off I will ask the server.

[@sandrameeks2363]

❤ all the DISNEYWORLD content always

[@robertvarley8740]

Awwww nooooo Caleb looked so sad 😢

[@TheMagicDads]

He was upset to have to give the thumbs down, lol.

[@jenny71WDW]

the char crusted strip seems to be the hit there for steak! Everything else you had looked yummy! What did Caleb have for dinner?

[@TheMagicDads]

It was too good! Caleb had the kid's pasta, but he didn't eat very much of it.

[@tracylandry3821]

Guys, if the restaurant has the sides and sauces on order, you can request a different sauce or side (if it comes with it). In looking at the menu (which I am always so grateful to pause the video and look it over) I would have ordered the scallops, with the risotto side and the Ras el Hangout Brown Butter sauce, with the grilled asparagus tarragon side. Just because the chef has a different vision, doesn't mean it's the perfect vision. Peppadew emulsion on something like scallops makes no culinary sense, just being "southern style" for the sake of. Chef would've done better using chicken or andouille sausage, or both, for that preparation. Mike! You know what you like, ask them to put it together for you. This isn't a cruise, the food is prepared to order. Love you and so impressed with Caleb for trying the shrimp, and trying again. You both are doing parenting right!

[@TheMagicDads]

That's cool! Thanks for the info, I didn't know you could do that. Thanks so much!!

[@yawnseadersformerlyknownas6921]

Like it’s very very entertaining

I love to hear gays complain
