Romantic atmosphere and wonderful food. Worth every penny. You'll be pampered and feel like royalty.. This is my husband and my "special occasion" restaurant. We go for the Chef's Table every time we can get a reservation. We have NEVER been disappointed. The food is always superb. The combinations are inventive without getting ridiculous. We always leave stuffed. Everything is delicious and even though you receive "samplings" of each dish, there is nothing that I would not want in a full portion. The food is always cooked to perfection and beautifully plated. What's not to like when one of the courses is a CHOCOLATE course!! The chef is informative and gracious and his approach to cooking is to use the best ingredients available. The Kobe Beef is always tender and flavorful. It is pricey, but you get what you pay for and here you pay for excellence. Go hungry and enjoy an evening to remember.

Not impressed. The food was good but not good enough to be voted to be the best French food in Orlando.

The menu looked great but the food itself is not as good as we thought. Foie gras was as good as people say. Other than that, nothing is outstanding. The fish was too dry. The kobe beef was not tender enough to be considered a 'kobe' beef. The wine paring was ok but not great. Coffee is fun to watch but it is just a regular coffee you can make at home. However, the Earl Grey tea was exceptional.

What we disspointed most was the service. If you have been to the Ritz Carlton in Atlanta, you will know what the good service should be. Our servers don't seem like they are happy at what they are doing.

After all, it is a good food but doesn't worth $400.

Top Notch Dining Experience. This restaurant ranks as one of the best. We went for an anniversary dinner and they made us feel very welcome and special. I like the intimate dining rooms and the individual attention given to us. The quality and presentation of the food is superb. The servings were small, but amazingly you get very full. The attentiveness of the service was unlike anywhere we dined before. We will definitely be back and highly recommend this restaurant. Although, the menu is pricey - it is worth it, especially for a special occassion.

A Victorian setting and sumptuous cuisine make this the grande dame of Central Florida dining.. The Scene
Located in Disney's elaborate Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, the interior has been decorated to resemble Queen Victoria's dining rooms. Service is exquisite. Each table receives the courteous, impeccable service of its own maid and butler.

The Food
The menu changes often, and it's impossible to say exactly what it may hold during your visit. But rest assured that everything will be delicious. If available, opt for the appetizer of pheasant breast served with blackberry glaze. For salads, try the unique blend of spinach, watercress and endive dressed in Gorgonzola and garnished with quail eggs. Main courses are varied, from veal topped with a sliver of white truffle to mahi mahi crusted with horseradish.

Delectable!!. Victoria & Albert's provides a quiet, romantic setting featuring candlelight, a harpist, and both a waitress and butler in 1920 period dress for your table. The food is amazing, right down to the artistic presentation and perfect temperature. Available with dinner is wine service featuring a specially selected wine per each selection from their seven-course menu. I was definitely impressed with the quality of food and the novel percolator (for coffee). My husband and I were celebrating our anniversary, they customized our menus accordingly, and each staff member who helped us told us 'Congratulations.' At the end, we were presented with a special gift card of chocolate. It's definitely worth the money and is sure to become an anniversary tradition! 5/26/04 Update! We went back this year for our anniversary - it was better than last year!! Oh, if Foie Gras is on the menu - go for it!!!

Amazing. I've been to V & A's twice now and all I can say is that it was as amazing the second time around. The service is impeccable, the food extraordinary and the room exquisite. Definitely try the wine paring with your meal. Its worth it.

Outstanding. If you can afford it, this restuarant is the place to go for a special occasion, or anytime you are interested in finding out what perfection really is! From the staff to the ambiance to the magnificant menut, this fine dining restuarant is unbeatable. Disney really knows how to go all out-- even after all the great things I heard about this restuarant, it still surpassed all my wildest expectations! Everyone should have a dinner like this at least once in their lifetime!

Fine dining at its very best.. We have dined around the world. Victoria and Albert's is one of the very finest with the best service and it is just outside our back door. Some times we wonder why we travel. Thanks Victoria. Thanks Albert. We will return to dine with you very soon.

absoluetly extraordinary dining. if you want theming and speciality right down to the napkin and fork, this is the place to go....but be dressed to impress becuase they have a dress code)(no tank tops i believe). TRy to get the chefs table and dine right in the kitchen with the chef-very romantic....exquisite food-didnt have 1 thing that wasnt awesome..save room for dessert...make sure to make reservations
