We are using DME and my daughters little car won't hold 5 of us so no off site this time. I just printed the menue for Olivia's from Deb's site and I think we have a winner. There is something for all of us and with the thumbs up from vb I'm looking forward to trying it. Just one more ? if I may. My daughter that is going down with us really wants to have steak one night(go figure we live in the midwest and she wants to eat steak in FL). Can you a)get a great steak on site b)where? I'm not thinking price here cause there is no sense eating steak if it isn't good. I rarely eat red meat anymore but those I love and live with do like a good steak now and again. Thanks again to all.

Originally Posted By danyoung I totally agree with my friend vbdad55 - that filet is to die for! It's usually not on the menu, but they still fix it.

Start with the cheese soup, and enjoy the 3 different kinds of breadsticks on the table (sourdough, multi-grain and pretzel - YUMMMM!!!). Time things right and you'll finish your meal just in time to waddle out to the lagoon to watch IllumiNations. A great way to end your day!

I always vow to order something different, but I always end up with the Terryaki Filet and then experiment with appetizers or soup. Last time was a cold Asparagus soup with sherry --mmm mmm mmmm

Originally Posted By jkayjs We have been to LeCellier many times but never tried the steak as there is always so many interesting things on the menu.

Thanks again to everyone and don't worry TD I won't be eating any cow thanks to the very thing you mentioned-high cholesterol.

My financial planner went on the Atkins diet for about 6 months and not only lost a LOT of weight, but his cholesterol level was also the lowest it had been in years. Now of course the problem with Atkins is that shortly after he went off it everything was back to the way it was before. Oh well. Nothing lasts forever.

Originally Posted By LuvDatDisney The best steaks at WDW are at Shula's Steakhouse at the Dolphin by a smidge over Yachtsman at Yacht Club. You can't go wrong with either of them. Le Cellier can be great, but I've also had a few steaks there that are closer to Sizzler quality and at $20-plus that just isn't acceptable. The best beef dish on WDW property though is the tamarind BBQ filet at the California Grill that VBDAD55 and DanYoung mentioned. I've always found it on the menu and I usually dine there every month or two.
