"First, I wish to thank the entire staff of Nine18 for a world class dining experience. Chefs Alan and Domingo - Job well done!

Second, I wish to thank the Board and owners of The Villas of Grand Cypress for placing such a high value on the dining experience.

Third, I wish to thank all of the previous reviewers for their accurate reviews.

If this dining room was in CHI, NYC, LA, or SF the only question would be how many Michelin Stars Nine18 would have attained.

We used to come to Florida for the weather - now we have another reason to come."

"A truly beautiful location with stunning views of the Grand Cyprus golf course. Well thought out menu choices are complemented by superb service. Tables are well spaced and the the ambiance is very condusive to quiet conversation. An upper area of the restaurant can easily accomodate larger parties. A rare find for locals since its "off the beaten path" location means you can usually get a table without a lot of advance planning."

"My wife and I have been coming here for our special celebrations each year since 2000. The place never disappoints. The food is wonderful, the service outstanding and the view at sunset is unmatched. At a time when many of the so called "eclectic" restaurants rise and fall, it is very gratifying to see that Nine18 continues to deliver. Tucked away from all the noise and fast pace of surrounding Lake Buena Vista, it is the best kept little secret of the Disney area."
