I believe the only restaurant from the list that is on Disney property is Todd English's BlueZoo and The Dolphin. At Universal Resort Orlando are Emeril's Orlando in CityWalk, Emeril's Tchoup Chop at the Royal Pacific, BiCE at Portofino Bay, and The Palm at the Hard Rock Hotel. Other noteable offerings are Spencer's at The Hilton at the Convention Center, and the Venetian Room at Caribe Royale Resort.

Originally Posted By ChiMike I haven't been over to the new Hilton yet, should check that out. I think that entire Bonnet Creek development is a wonderful alternative to paying high rack rates at Disney. Their timeshare units are lightyears ahead of DVC when it comes to size and quality of furnishings. Between the timeshare, Hilton, Waldorf, and new Wyndham hotel, that is a nice complex over there. You get to stay on property at a great price point with what I would assume a much nicer accommodation. Probably would only work for seasoned guests who have already become accustomed to using their own car to get around. I would think that would be a necessity if you stayed at any of those properties. A fair trade off I would think.
