Okay, this has been bugging me ever since I got super into Disney, but there was a great restaurant my family ate at in the early 2000s in WDW, and I would love to know what restaurant it was. I was 8 or 9 the first time I ate there for the first time, and we did go back at one point when I was 12, but my memories are still fuzzy! That would have made the restaurant operational around 2000 - 2004 at least.
I remember we went into a quite ornate hotel lobby to get there. It seemed like a NICE restaurant, but us kids were able to draw on the table (and the waiter did so too, he was the absolute best!) so it wasn't like a Victoria & Albert's level. We were able to see the Magic Kingdom fireworks from a dock right off the restaurant (I really strongly feel it was a dock and we were at water level). I think we were close because my toddler cousin was really upset at the booms. And when I was older we went back for a Thanksgiving dinner, so it offered that, but I'm sure that doesn't narrow it down.
I have thought that it was maybe what is now California Grill, but I don't think it was on the top floor of the hotel, which I know Cali Grill is...
If anyone has any thoughts about what restaurant this might have been, I will send you so much good karma!
