Fodor's Review:

The view of the surrounding Disney parks from this rooftop restaurant is as stunning as the food, especially at night, when you can watch the nightly Magic Kingdom fireworks from the patio. Start with the brick-oven flatbread with grilled duck sausage or the unagi (eel) sushi. For a main course, try the oak-fired beef fillet with three-cheese potato gratin and tamarind barbecue sauce, or the seared scallops with risotto, baby carrots, and crustacean butter sauce. Good dessert choices include the orange crepes with Grand Marnier custard, raspberries, and blackberry coulis and the butterscotch, orange, and vanilla crème brûlée.

Great Place

We really enjoyed our meal here except for the manager getting on to us because our 3 year old was running around a bit...this is Disney after all....lol I would say that the filet at Jikos is better than the filet at California Grill. The California Grill has a great wine list and has diversity within its menu. The service was outstanding aside from the manager's comments....the guy ought to be re-assigned to a walk-up. The decor was very dated and the temp quite cool along with the manger's attitude towards small children.
