    My top 5 (1 credit) TS:

    1. Grand Floridian Cafe
    2. Boma
    3. 'Ohana
    4. Teppan Edo
    5.Chefs de France

    I generally prefer the Signatures. Also, I haven't tried Sanaa or Kouzzina yet, but I suspect they might have made my list if I had.

    You might also consider that Jym (Natazu) did his last annual top 7 list in January and the top 7 as voted by us all then were:

    7. Chef Mickey's
    6. Garden Grill
    5. Kona Café
    4. Boma
    3. California Grill
    2. Ohana
    1. Le Cellier
    Sherri
    Next: Aulani Celebration 10/2018 (50th)

    Here's my top 5:
    1. 'Ohana
    2. Kouzzina
    3. Le Cellier
    4. Chef Mickey's (more for the atmosphere than the food)
    5. Crystal Palace (again, mostly because of the atmosphere)


    That was harder than I'd thought it would be! For us, the only must-dos are 'Ohana and CM, although Kouzzina may be on that list now, too!

    Cool

    Honestly, with the O'hana love already ... I don't get it. I would list it in my top five worst restaurants in Disney World. In fact, I think it is the worst. How can my experience differ from others so much?? And it's not like I went there once. I've eaten there three times and all three times it's been horrendous.

    I seriously just must be missing something ... anyway:
    1. Tutto Italia
    2. Chefs De France
    3. Teppan Edo
    4. Garden Grill (for the flank steak alone!!)
    5. Le Cellier

    I can't believe I forgot Raglan Road on my list! I would probably bump one of them for Raglan Road, but I can't decide which to bump.

    Ian, everyone has different tastes. I feel the way you feel about 'Ohana about Kona Cafe. I'm just surprised you gave it three chances if you hated it that much. I would have stopped at two. You really tried! With 'Ohana for me, it's the atmosphere and fun I've had with my family there more than the food. But I do love the sticky wings and the dessert.

    1. Grand Floridian Cafe (better steak and better dining room than Le Cellier, which is also nice);
    2. Teppan Edo;
    3. Kona Cafe (more choice than Ohana and better service);
    4. Cape May Cafe (our favorite character meal; it's less crowded and the food is good);
    5. Rose and Crown (It's a LOUD dining room, but the food is awesome and the waitstaff is exceptionally charming)

    YMMV

    Well, in fairness, I didn't really want to try it three times.

    The first time was for breakfast, which we all universally hated. Then we decided we'd give it a shot for dinner, since maybe our first bad meal was a fluke. The entire party hated it.

    The last time, I didn't know my Mom was going to book it until it was too late (she made all our ADR's), so I was kinda stuck. Again ... the entire party hated it.

    And I have to say we had special hatred for the sticky wings! They were DISGUSTING!! Cold, flabby, rubbery, gross chicken with no flavor.
