Several members here have dined there and had a very lovely time. If you do a search in Dining, or in the Trip Reports forums you will find some excellent reviews. :yes:

It is certainly one of the best restaurants I`ve ever dined in.
So far we`ve been three times, twice on the Chef`s Table and once in the main dining area.
If your budget will allow then the wine pairing is something to go for. You get a different wine with each course along with a detailed explanation of the wine from the very knowledgable servers.

Hi, Me and my boyfriend went there as a special meal for my 21st. It really was a different experience to any other disney restaurant. So peacful and quite. The staff were really friendly and helpful with explaining what each course was. The puddings were fantastic!!

I had a lovely birthday cake made for me at the bakery and it was brought out for me in Victoria and Alberts. It was really nice. They took photos of us with the cake etc and boxed it up to take away. Was far to full to eat any thing else!

The menus we got given are really nice keepsakes. And the rose was lovely. They also gave us a walnut cake, not sure if everyone gets it or if it was becasue of my birthday.

It was a very lovely experience, not sure if I would do it again without it being a special ocassion though as it was very expensive. Also be careful what you choice on the menus! We had the steaks and didn't realise they were an extra $80 each! on top of the price already paid!

I would love to try V&A but, I am such a fussy eater it would be embarrassing!

I would love to go to but I think my frugal DH would have heart failure at the price (once I add my wine pairings on) :lol:

I was a bit worried aswell, I just left what I didnt want to eat! I was quite surprised at myself at the stuff I did eat aswell! I tried a bit of this lobster stuff! It was so tiny thou on a massive plate! Wasnt to keen on it thou.

The steak was nice although pricey!

One of the courses was a fish course, I didnt relaise this but it was ok! Had a strawberry sort of sorbet for another. The chocolate pudding I had was fantastic!! Very sickly though! But the best course!

I am a fussy eater too so I ask for the vegetarian menu as well as the regular menu. Between the two menus I can usually find something I like.
