Artist Point

Frommer's Review

Enjoy a grand view of Disney's Wilderness Lodge and tasty cuisine at this rustically elegant establishment. Hand-painted murals of Pacific Northwestern scenery adorn the impressive two-story center ceiling, and ornate iron lanterns hang from tremendous timber columns. Immense windows overlook the waterfalls, rocky landscaping, and the resort's own Fire Rock geyser. The menu changes seasonally and might feature grilled buffalo sirloin with sweet potato hazelnut gratin and sweet onion jam, but the restaurant's signature is the cedar plank-roasted king salmon with asparagus, haricot vert, mizuna, herb dumplings, and sage brown-butter vinaigrette. There's terrace seating for fair-weather dining. Expect a reasonably extensive wine list that now exclusively features wines from the Pacific Northwest. Note: Artist Point has a much more relaxed atmosphere than some of the busier WDW resort restaurants.

Tip: If you're looking for more family-oriented dining at the Wilderness Lodge, try the Whispering Canyon Café, where a decor dedicated to cowboys and Indians is warm and welcoming. Kids can horse-race on broomsticks, and everyone gets a whoopin' and a hollerin' at dinner. Meals are served family style (though a la carte service is available if you so desire). They're open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Entrees run from $10 to $15 at lunch, $17 to $24 at dinner.
