Dining in Orlando

Hi - looking for suggestions for different dining experiences in Orlando area (in or out of the parks) for hubby and I for our upcoming trip in January. I know there's every national chain imaginable, but any recommendations for individually owned or unique venues?

I always check restaurant.com for gift certificates, Also use AA reward dining and now groupon has a thing if you preregister the restaurant that you are going to you can get up to 30% cash back providing the restaurant is in there program.

Sanaa is my favorite Disney restaurant.
It's a fun adventure in eating.
It's Indian and African food but nothing too scary.
Definitely get the bread service and go before sunset so you can see the animals.
Then after dinner you can sit out by the fire pits.

This sounds great. Would definitely like to do this next time I'm at WDW.

Definitely do it.
Totally worth it.
Make sure to make a reservation online.
It's a $10 pp if you don't show but you can cancel 24 hours in advance.
If not the stand by wait times can be very long.
This used to be easy to get into standby but not anymore.
It's been discovered probably no thanks to me. LOL

I read about the dining in Orlando and I really like the article as it is written in the best way and in easy language also.

You cant go wrong with Ohanas at the Polynesian resort. It is by far our favorite!!!! Check out the reviews , menu, etc. And if you are around there near time for MK fireworks, you can watch from there. The music is pumpoed into the restaurant as well.

Ohana's is definitely a great option.
