5 BEST Restaurants in Disney Springs | Walt Disney World

[@SerenityNowTS]

I enjoyed this video format- it was very professional! I also like your typical vlogs, so I hope you don’t stop doing those! Those are always fun, whether you’re going solo or bring a friend or a few (or your family! Those are honestly some of my faves!). 😊

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Regular vlogs aren’t going anywhere. This style will just be scattered in every once in a while. Thanks for the feedback! 😊

[@jaelmoray]

Absolutely love your reviews! Found you through Nate quite some time back and I have been watching all your content ever since. Best food reviews for Disney, imo. I appreciate your honesty about everything! You deserve all the success and way more follows. :)

[@halamars7721]

I appreciate this new format you introduced! It was so seamlessly put together and had great pacing throughout. Of course, I enjoy your typical vlogs that feel just as well put together, yet casual fun as well. Kudos to you for putting in the effort to bring all sorts of fantastic content to the table--(pun fully intended)--alongside delicious recommendations! :-)

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Thank you so much for the kind words!

[@halamars7721]

@@wrightdownmainstreet You are super welcome! Looking forward to your next video 😊

[@ashleyanthony7466]

Oh and I can’t quit the Boathouse. Between me and my husband we both love the filet sliders, truffle fries, and wedge salad. I have rarely gotten anything different 😂 I know you don’t have kids but our kids have always been welcome there, their kids meals are a great value for the food. We love it there.

[@sethvision722]

Ditto. It’s the only restaurant that is a MUST every trip to WDW. Amazing food/service/ambiance. 10/10! Now craving the Filet Sliders! .:p

[@ianjohn3886]

I liked the vlog but can't beat your regular videos. You were a great help with all the info before we went to Disney in the summer and now we are back home we still watch. We always look forward to a new vlog and always make sure we have 20 minutes to spare. Hope you continue with your great work!

[@NickBrunet]

I must admit this was such a great and well put together video! Your research and information were off the charts! Great job, Kristen!

[@ashleyanthony7466]

Hope you feel better, Kristen! This was a great video and would love to see more of these 😊

[@coryredding8963]

Fantastic! Would love to see more like this!

[@teresapinnell-wl8el]

I like this format! I’d never heard of most of the restaurants in this video it was very informative and I saw a few food items that I’ll be dreaming of!

[@javajaycee]

I really enjoyed this format video as well. A great mix between the two styles you do.

[@anngilnack5011]

Love, Love Love this review of Springs restaurants. I will definitely try those on my next WDW visit. You are the best,Kristen.Love your creativity. Also love the extensive,facial expression reviews.Feel better.

[@susan_elizabeth]

Wonderful video, Kristen! I hope you're feeling better! 💜

[@meganwetzel5338]

Great video! I did enjoy it and got a lot of information out of it. However, I do hope you also continue your original form of vlogs as well. I started watching you because I am a huge Nate fan, and I love what you bring to his videos as well! I really enjoy watching your videos and seeing your facial expressions and personality. I love all of your comments and honesty about the food. That’s what makes your videos so great! You seem like such a great person. I absolutely love your videos and it’s been so helpful to plan my upcoming trip.

[@kvalen78]

Kristen, loved the video!! I totally agree with your rankings!! Love me some Disney Springs eats 😋

[@LesleyH]

Loved this format… but I love all your videos 🫶

[@NDRBSN]

I really really like this new style of video!! Can’t wait to try The Boathouse when we arrive in a little over a week! 🥰

[@denniscaldwell8193]

Enjoy all your videos this was a great one of Disney Springs.

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Thanks so much Dennis!

[@Lucy00111]

Hope you're ok after the hurricane. I love your videos. You have a great presence and voice, how you present things. You could absolutely do a podcast too!

[@Alyssa-cd7el]

I love everything you post!

[@maximilian9295]

Might sound ridiculous, but where i live, there really isn't much fast food. Whenever im at DS , i can't wait to go to Chicken Guy . It's always so good, such great prices, and so fun to eat, just love it there.

[@cindymitcheltree7961]

Well done, Kristen! Great choices! Thanks for another great video!

[@paulawheeler2220]

I LOVE this style video from you! It’s better than the vlog format, if I’m honest. (I may be in the minority). You did a great job on this one!

[@OceanLove606]

My family and I enjoy all your videos, both in person or voiceover. Thank you for your honesty

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Thank you!!

[@mrsgodfrey5693]

Jaleo & Wine Bar George are our top faves at DS. Soo good!

[@saramckay394]

Really enjoyed this video Would like to see more!

[@Shauna1223]

The Polite Pig is our family’s favorite restaurant in Disney Springs!! I love just being able to walk up and eat fairly quickly and the food is always delicious!

[@mindyhooper4880]

Great video! Being a fan of your channel, we saw the title and the family each had a guess of what your top 5 was going to be. We were so close.

[@mochad2550]

I loved your review!!!! Very informative. I have eaten at the boathouse with a huge group but going back in the spring to have date night and hopefully a boat ride this time around. I am so glad I stumbled upon your channel.

[@johng689]

I love a Top 5 Show! Great pics, There were so many great places on your list.

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Thanks so much John!

[@libraryminnie5892]

I missed Wine Bar George! 4/5 is not bad for guessing . Brunch at Boathouse is now on my bucket list, which has begun looking like a receipt from CVS and grows daily. I love all your videos, you are discerning and have a critic’s eye and palate and are not hesitant to speak the truth. I see your subscriber count is on a tear! Keep on that upward trajectory!🎉🎉🎉

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

That’s so sweet, thanks so much for following along!

[@kerrys778]

Loved this style of video! Great video-staying at French quarter next trip, so will be heading to Disney Springs a lot!

[@KathySanto]

Great video as always! Totally agree with your top 5 (lucky duck oysters 😋!), and Polite Pig is our fave walk up. Also loved your one bite 🍕 video.

[@jeannemcelroy4240]

We love Homecomin. Never had a bad meal there. The fried chicken is probably the best I've ever had! Looking forward to trying some of your favorites when we're there in December! Love your videos and honest reviews.

[@lirr408]

Thank you for this list. My two favorite restaurants in all of Disney are Raglan Road and the House of Blues. I also like City Works and Enzo's Hideaway. I will be visiting next week. Always looking for suggestions.

[@tracyf5084]

Super helpful video as I make my dining reservations tomorrow!

[@jaykekelley1919]

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK YO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :] great vid

[@johnvaldivia8480]

Totally agree Disney Springs has some Amazing Food Options……my top 5 is: 1. Boathouse 2. Homecoming 3. Raglan Road 4. Summer House 5. Morimoto Asia

[@justinhuff7367]

Boathouse is always #1

[@MadisonMcNabb]

Everything looks so good! I love Wine Bar George so much . Great Video

[@heater631]

Great video! LOVE Disney Springs!!❤

[@efnaha9303]

Great choices! Boathouse is our fave.

[@mskotz]

Fabulous video!

[@ChristinaConnelly-d7p]

This was great! Thanks WDMS!

[@AmeKurosaki]

Hi Kristen I loved this format too, although I do enjoy seeing your face on the firsts bites lol!

[@deidrejordan2761]

Hi Kristen! I enjoyed the format however I do prefer to see your expressions while you are having the experience. Occasionally switching up in format is enjoyable. Thanks for the info ❤🎉

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Appreciate the feedback & thanks for watching!! I can never hide how I’m feeling when I try something, my face is a dead giveaway 😅

[@robinrosen3236]

Great job!!! Thanks for all the good info 💖

[@meganturner8836]

Loved this kind of video! Keep them coming! Can you do top 5 places to get icecream? 😅

[@erocmoney]

lol the reaction after the bite into the ribs sells that dish. 😂 great video

[@davepalmatier1540]

I almost totally agree, lol only because we’ve never been to Wine Bar George. We are visiting from Michigan in 14 days for 3 weeks and we will definitely head for WBG this time. Honestly, when we come to DS we visit at least 10-14 times in our 3 weeks because we know where the best food is in the area. Love your channel, and yes THE BOATHOUSE is #1 for us too!

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

You’re due for a Wine Bar George visit then! I hope you enjoy, make sure to get the mac & cheese bites

[@Lyndyette]

Have a wonderful and fantastic visit. Safe travels!!

[@bigcpodcast]

Great video Kristin 😊

[@allaboardblakestrainsandmore]

I enjoyed this style of video. Biscoff waffles? Yes, please!

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Thanks for the feedback! I have more ideas for videos like this in the future. It’s like I’m making 1 giant voice over tiktok 😂

[@cgessner11]

Loved the video. Would also love to see something like "Top 5 XX food item" videos. Best burgers, old fashioned, steaks, etc.... Also, one last suggestion -- while I know it will outdate itself on the video, would love to know $$ on items to gage how much I might be spending. Keep making these and I'll keep watching -- love the content!!

[@PhilipMcCartney-pq8fs]

We are at the Boathouse. Very nice inside. Food was nothing special and the usual Disney overpricing. Service was okay until a large group came in to eat and we were forgotten. I would not return but besides that over water bar are vintage boats that I found very interesting and you don't have to suffer the restaurant to see them

[@diamondpaintingwithsweett]

I'm praying you feel better soon, sweetie!❤❤❤

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Thanks so much!! I’m almost there 😊

[@mrsmiddy416]

Homecoming is our absolute favorite!! We were never big boathouse people when we worked at WDW. But I hear it hyped so much, so maybe it’s changed!

[@jediturbodoc]

The Boathouse is on our list to try. I can’t resist that Shepard’s pie with a shot of my favorite Irish whiskey and that Tri Wishes Red Ale at Raglan Road. Oh ya. The onion rings too. I love the music. Chef Art Smith’s is great (His diner in Terminal C is why I fly JetBlue 😂)

[@KittyMeowWow]

Great thanks! Obviously I love your full length reviews but this is cool too. Doing both styles works 👍. A good way of using previous footage etc and turning into something new too. Get well soon 😊

[@woooooooo9061]

I agree. Boathouse is my favourite, with homecomin a close 2nd. We will try Wine bar George next year. That lobster roll at boathouse is the stuff of dreams.

[@jill8542]

We love Homecoming and The Boathouse too. Morimoto is good but we are from Nj and get really good Asian food here so we generally skip this one. But it is good. Jaleo is one we always want to try but never seem to get to. It’s on the list. Wine Bar George is another we can’t seem to get to. (Plus they don’t have my 2 favorite wines so I’m a bit salty about that)

[@jdrew5367]

Last three times I’ve been to Disney World. I’ve tried to get a reservation for Winebar George and have been unsuccessful. I’ll be able to attempt again in the spring because I’ve been to boathouse without reservations. It’s good great view. Thank you

[@kinoglaza]

WOW everything looks so good! I’ll have to try Morimoto’s when I visit Vegas next month, and I’ll definitely get over to Disney Springs on my next trip to Orlando.

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Awesome, enjoy!

[@donaldlamaster3789]

I don't mind these types of videos periodically, but I watch all of your food vlogs, and I have seen all of these. Thank you for trying something different. Now try mayo😉

[@nancycarden2469]

Loved the video. We are coming next week and we do have a reservation at the Boat House. Love all your food reviews.

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Enjoy! Make sure you ask for cinnamon butter for the rolls 😉

[@MJD123]

Hope you're feeling better! 🙏 And hopefully your crew is taking good care of you!! 💞 This one definitely convinced me that i'm slacking! 🤣 We're at Disney usually twice a year, and I still need to check a bunch of these of my list 🤐 Next trip necessitates a Springs day, I'm thinking! Thanks for sharing, and feel better!

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Thanks so much! I’m feeling so much better today. All the rest I’ve taken has really helped. I stan a Disney Springs dining day!

[@LifeWithMrsB]

Oh I liked this style of video, a bit different 😊

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Thank you!! I’m hoping to do more like this in the future.

[@ryangraham8197]

Same! My favorite so far

[@magus-5595]

This video format reminded me of the ones they play in the rooms kinda? Like when they have it cycling through the Must Do's at Disney stuff when they were going park by park and all. It was good :) and I never knew about the boat in the boathouse even being there a few times.

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

This is the biggest compliment ever, thank you!!!! Stacy from Must Do Disney is a legend. Even as a child I would have that on the resort tv anytime we were in the hotel room.

[@Kukukachoooooo]

The Boathouse is our favorite. Going to try Morimoto’s next trip!

[@JenniRae1125]

I hope your feeling better. Back pain is the worst !!

[@thebookishbard1051]

I love boathouse. I want to try homecomin but I always end up at boathouse instead. Lol

[@Dugger1991]

Awesome!!!!

[@chrissyott4684]

I enjoyed this style of video, but I enjoy all the videos regardless of the style.

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Thank you!!

[@JenniRae1125]

My top 2 favorites at Disney springs are chef arts homecoming and boathouse hands down

[@emceenyc1120]

❤ the video, although miss the BEV-a-RUAGES. Another good one is Sunmer House.

[@jasonbullock24]

Homecomin is a must for our family when we go

[@moonbeammama22]

I've never been to Jaleo, not sure that I'd visit there as a life long vegetarian. My best friend works at The Bazaar by José Andrés in NYC and so I'm sure Jaleo is top-notch quality as well. I enjoyed Chef Art Smiths. Great service, too. It was also one of the only restaurants we could get a table reservation for 9! Can't wait to try the Boathouse!

[@jodibeth1206]

We ate at your #1 Boathouse and #3 Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’ during Orlando vacation in 2022. Loved them both!😊

[@paulciavardoni8069]

Order lobster bisque at the Boathouse once and it had zero chunks of lobster in it. I was told the lobster is ground up in the bisque. I’ve had lobster bisque numerous times in Maine and it always has lobster chunks. The rest of the meal was good and they didn’t charge me for the bisque after I mentioned it to the bartender who waited on me.

[@MissMyMusicAddiction]

the first time i ate at jaleo i thought it was not memorable. i was wrong. we only went back so we could get guaranteed patio seats for dreams that soar. that included a special tasting experience, which was fifteen tapas courses. it. was. amazing. morimoto is the place we visit, the most, because everyone loves going there, followed by homecomin', for brunch.

[@lebabies]

Wine Bar George, Amorettes, Raglan Road, Morimoto (although I don't like the ambiance), and Frontera. I want to try Jaleo next time!

[@eileenibarra]

I really liked this style of video but also like when you are more personal with family and friends and trying things on the spot so please do both. My daughter is traveling for work this week down there and this would give her some ideas to possibly go to solo to have some fun at night. I am going to send her the link. Thank you.

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

I’ll be back live in the parks very soon! Thanks for sharing 😊

Just went to Disney springs last weekend! Trying to convince my mom to try to a new restaurant every time we go.

Work in 1 new restaurant per visit, that’s the way to do it 😊

Wow, you nailed that list. We’re WDW vets, & here’s ours… 1.) Boat House (a must every trip!) 2,) Art Smiths (when we are super starving!) 3.) Wine Bar George (yeah…all about the Mac n Chz Bites!) We also eat Polite Pig & Jacque Lindseys for quick service :p Great job!! Cheers!

Looking for recommendations of places to eat at for a holiday trip…

[@thecoolestdad]

I haven't eaten at all of the places you showed here. I have had the filet mignon sliders at the Boathouse. They were good but mine was a little dry. I'd still try them again though. I like Jock Lindsey's. The tacos are awesome. The other places are simply out, just too expensive for me. I am so "old school" cheap it's unreal. LOL! I do like Polite Pig and I will eat there again. We ate at STK once for lunch and had the burger and fries. The food was good, no complaints there. But I will be honest, I did not care for the atmosphere there, nor the decor. It gave off vibes that I didn't like. I won't go there again. I am more of an Earl Of Sandwich, Blaze Pizza type of person. I don't care too much for the sit down places, because for me it's the higher prices than the quick service places are. But that's just me. When Disney Springs is over crowded at the eateries, I like to take the boat over to Saratoga Springs and eat at the quick service place and enjoy the more calm and quiet atmosphere, than the hustle and bustle of Disney Springs.

[@JacquelineBarnes-i7o]

We love Boathouse ⛵️

Curious... we are heading to Disney Springs for the day this Friday. I made a reservation at Edison because my kid wants a burger. Does anyone have any feedback on the restaurant, Edison? Thanks!

Except Jaleo

[@summercallaway4496]

Hands down polite!!!!!

[@carlatowns6942]

I enjoyed this style...just don't stop the others lol.

[@marsham333]

Love Homcomin’, The Boathouse, and Jaleo. We tried Wine Bar George during Magical Dining a few years back. The service was horrible, when the waiter discovered we were on Magical Dining, he acted like we were beneath him, and it was way too much trouble to wait on us. Magical Dining happens every year in Orlando, it is a way to try restaurants to see if you might return. You get 3 courses at a fixed price. Needless to say, we did not return. We also like Maria and Enzo’s, not the Hideaway but the restaurant that looks like an airport terminal. Great food, great service, great prices. Brunch at Homecomin’ is our favorite, brunch at The Boathouse is so so, the standard menu is much better. I have also had dinner at Cocina, but it is too spicy for me. I like the taste of food, and spice should only enhance it. It is very hard to find non spicy food, but O do not mind leaving the spice for you!

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Great input! I’ve had the same experience every single time I’ve done Magical Dining. They no longer have it at Wine Bar George, but this year I went to Maria & Enzo’s as well as SummerHouse for magical dining & felt the same way you did about the service. Last year I also tried a few magical dining restaurants & had the same experience.

[@danabriggs1095]

Homecomin is hands down the best

[@SuBee-mg4wh]

That’s was great video. What do you think of summer house ?

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

I’ve honestly had too many bad experiences at that restaurant to return for quite a while. A few menu items are really good but generally I feel it’s way too overpriced for the portion & quality. I find I get more bang for my buck & overall have better meal at many other restaurants.

[@SuBee-mg4wh]

@@wrightdownmainstreet Thanks for the feedback ! I was thinking of going when in Orlando next month but now I will have to check out one of your top 5 instead 😉

[@summernielsen8210]

You need to try Splitsville if you haven’t! I never really thought the food there would be anything impressive, but it was so good! The krab rangoon sushi and macho nachos are great! Hoping to get back soon to try more items. They have a nice cocktail menu as well (including an espresso martini)! I had the painkiller and loved it. :) Great video, and I hope you feel better soon!

[@edzelmejia3233]

Hey Walt, that's the Executives Chair btw.

[@rodneyguggenheim982]

Is the tasting menu at Jaleo $100 per person or is it enough for 2 people?

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Pretty sure it's not something that can be split
