(Matter of fact, we actually saw a couple get engaged here on our visit.) While kids aren&#8217;t forbidden from eating here, this is probably a place where you wouldn&#8217;t see too many.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_74081\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-74081\" style=\"width: 450px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-74081\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_3630-e1568921902542.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_3630-e1568921902542.jpg 450w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_3630-e1568921902542-300x400.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-74081\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Gorgeous chandelier at Flying Fish<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Flying Fish actually reminds me of what one would consider an elegant steakhouse, however instead of serving steaks almost exclusively, the restaurant features a predominantly seafood menu. (However there are definitely other options besides only seafood on the menu available.) The menu offers high end dishes<\/p>\n<p>I, of course, wanted to enjoy the full seafood experience, so I made sure to get a dish that included seafood. I went with the Hokkaido Scallops which are served with Antebellum Grits, Sweet Corn, Peppadew Emulsion.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-74083\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_3628.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_3628.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/blog_world\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/IMG_3628-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The scallops were cooked to perfection. They were tender and delicious with a great sear.\u00a0 For the price, I would have like to have been served one extra scallop, but that&#8217;s a small request. The grits were creamy, however there was one small problem with the sweet corn.<\/p>\n<p>I was unaware that the corn would be mixed with cilantro. I am one of those who cilantro tastes funny for. The cilantro was heavily mixed in with the corn, which ended up mixing in with the grits are I ate the dish. It was actually a little hard to avoid. No where in the menu description was it listed that there was cilantro in this dish, otherwise I would have ordered it without. Again, a smaller thing, but I can never understand a restaurant&#8217;s fascination with cilantro without telling diners that it&#8217;s in their food. Especially when it&#8217;s so off-putting for a large number of us.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, I liked the scallops, but certainly would have amended my order, knowing what I know now.<\/p>\n<p>Now, with an exquisite experience like this, pricing is definitely on the higher end of things.\u00a0 Keep that in mind, as this is considered to be a Signature dining restaurant and is two table service credits for those on the Disney Dining Plan.<\/p>\n<p>Flying Fish was a great option though and certainly somewhere I will consider dining at again, especially when looking for a nice evening.<\/p>\n<p><em>Have you tried Flying Fish before?
