And a definite yes to Kona Café! It is a must do for us when we go. I love their lunch special, I get the Teriyaki steak and it comes with yummy Hawaiian pasta salad and sticky rice. Yes, It's heavy on the carbs, but ohhhhh it is so good!

There's a great big beautiful tomorrow!

If I was by myself and wanted to relax I'd choose the Grand Floridian Café or Kona Cafe

Just wanted to circle back and thank everyone for the suggestions. I actually tried to make a lunch ADR on the way down for Morimoto and couldn't get one. I was afraid to go all the way to Disney Springs without an ADR so I ended up having a nice lunch of dumplings and sushi roll at Kona Cafe. I did some pin trading and walked around the resort before checking in at our hotel.

My fav lunch is at the extremely beautiful Sanaa at AKL-Kidani! I usually get a bunch of their awesome apps (the shrimp and the lamb sliders are amazing along with their large bread service with tons of dips to try) and watch the safari animals outside the window. There is nothing like eating lunch while watching giraffes and Ankole cattle walk by...

The lounge at Sanaa, for sure. Probably the best bar on property. There won't be a wait at lunchtime, the food is great and you get to hang out at Animal Kingdom Lodge before or after your meal.

I agree with both of these!

While an older thread, I'll toss in my opinions in case someone else comes along.
Morimoto Asia - nice vibe, good food, good wine list
Sanaa - best bread service in the World, though it's non-traditional; good wine and drink list
Jock Lindsey's Hangar Bar - good drinks, good wine, and a solid bar food menu
Paradiso 37 - Excellent guacamole and a fine drink list

I appreciate you chiming in, I'm headed back down next week for another "Perfect Lunch"!

I'd definitely go with Kona Cafe or Sanaa. We just got back and had excellent meals at both. Not to rain on the Morimoto parade, but we had a terrible experience there about 2 weeks ago. Our food was very blah- we love any kind of Asian, spicy food, and had high expectations. Very disappointed. The biggest issue was the kids meal- my little boy was served pretty much raw chicken nuggets- thank God my mom cut into them before he started eating them. They were pink...very pink on the inside. Thankfully the manager came right away, apologized, and took 30% off of our bill. But this mama did not enjoy the stress of the thought of my little one eating undercooked (and I mean it was pink and mushy, ugh!) chicken. That would have ended very badly! But Kona and Sanaa were both top notch. Also really enjoy The Wave at the CR. Sounds so lovely to grab a quiet lunch alone!
