                    We are in town for a work conference but been to Disney Springs many times. We had a wonderful team dinner and sat outside. It was beautiful on the water and not noisy at all. Food was great and our server Rob was outstanding.

                    We reserved a table for 6 in the bar area. I was told that we could not be seated till noon to get that table. There was no waiter. It was approximately 11:35 am so I said ok give us another table. We did get one close by however, the waiter that was serving the requested table was serving our table! And people were seated at my requested table at 11:50 am. And had the same waiter.

                    We always love The Boathouse and go there basically every time we come to Disney World. We brought several people along for their first visit there, and they were very impressed. I usually get the burger, which is excellent, but tonight I tried the Pan Roasted Corvina, and it was exactly what I wanted tonight. So good.

                    Went there to celebrate my anniversary with my wife. The hostess recognized our anniversary, but then talked about her parents more than she was interested in us. Server did not recognize or even ask if we were celebrating anything. Food was OK . The table bread is the best thing about it.

                    We had a reservation for 8 people and they tried to put two small round tables together and squeeze us in. We asked for another small round table so we could sit comfortably and got it but they weren’t happy about it. The server was visibly annoyed. The guy refilling the drinks had terrible attitude and was very slow! We will not be going back! Spent way too much money there for the quality of the food!

                    Arrived within the time frame of the second reservation, I was immediately seated since the rest of my party had already arrived. The waiter was quick and eager to please, took my order for drinks and responded without hesitation for refills, the food was out quickly and delicious. This was my second time dining at The Boathouse. Needless to say but if I’m in Disney Springs again it will be my first choice again.
