    Our experience was outstanding! The wait staff was tremendous- very on top of things. We were celebrating a birthday & they provided a birthday cupcake with a candle. The Parker House rolls are the best we have ever had. Everything we ate was prepared to perfection. Will definitely be returning next time we are in Disney.

    Our evening can’t be described any other way than PERFECT. Service, food, environment and most of all, HOSPITALITY. Our server Marcus, a humble man wearing his heart on his sleeve, is the reason our night can be described in such a way. From the guidance through the menu, food recommendations, timing of courses and a sense of feeling at home. Two hours felt like an instant, a moment which we will carry with us forever. Regardless of being his previous co-workers ( both me and my wife) we genuinely say this is an unbiased review because 3 nights prior we had dinner at Capa and service at The Boathouse was unparalleled, food was better and more enjoyable and no need to feel like we didn’t belong. In part, the reason i can say i am successful in the Hospitality Industry is because of this restaurant and all the people i have met and worked with and all its Standards and Vision. Full Circle. (Thanks for the pen Marcus) We’re so grateful we stepped in The Boathouse after such a long time and i can say there will be many more times we will visit and Dine at this Unique piece of Magic. Thank you and i hope this serves as a possible breath of life in a time which many of us experience unique difficulties. Sincerely and grateful, Alejandro & Jasmine Sanchez-Permuy

    Our server, Ricky, was well versed at customer satisfaction! The entire team ( from check-in to check out) worked like a well oiled machine. Taste, temp, and quality are top notch. Meal portions are a bit small EXCEPT for desserts, which are shareable and delicious. Spouse says that this was the best filet he has experienced. Would visit again.

    Celebrating my birthday with my family and enjoyed it very much! Service was good, but you could tell our server had to many tables. He was really hustling the whole time and had a wait a bit for drinks. I would highly recommend Dusty as he was very nice and polite.
