Most of the menu items are NOT Tex-Mex style Mexican, so some of the dishes may be rather unfamiliar. My favorite is Mole Poblano - Grilled chicken breast served over a bed of chicken morsels, carrots, chayote chiles, with the classic sauce of spices and a hint of chocolate $19.99 (From Deb Will's great site: <a href="http://www.allearsnet.com/menu/menu_mex.htm" target="_blank">http://www.allearsnet.com/menu /menu_mex.htm</a> )

Originally Posted By Labuda If you're willing to monorail over to the TTC then hop the resort monorail to the Contemporary, I'd suggest dinner at Le Cellier. One of the finest dining experiences you can have at WDW.

Originally Posted By davewasbaloo Hmmm, I would say Le Cellier or the San Angel Inn are the two most romantic restaurants in Epcot (though all the world showcase table service restaurants are good!). Or at the Contemporary, California Grill is probably the second best restaurant in WDW with great potential firework views, great food and a wine list. The most romantic (and expensive restaurant) is Victoria and Albert's in the Grand Floridian.

Originally Posted By Labuda Yeah, yeah, laugh it up, y'all. You're just jealous that I'm young & still have my whole life ahead of me while you're old and decrepit!

Originally Posted By cindergrl Well, ended up changing it to Le Cellier's hubby liked their menu more. But thanks for all the great ideas!
Originally Posted By Labuda Good move to change from San Angel to Le cellier, IMHO. You'll love it! The beer cheese soup is GREAT!
