Toledo at the Coronado
 
The Toledo restaurant at the Coronado Resort at Disney . Make a reservation for about 7pm so that your view changes from day to night and you can see the sunset. There is a balcony so you can also step outside and when the Epcot fireworks go they play the corresponding music.

This is not as expensive as Victoria and Albert’s but you still have the Disney attitude to decor, service and product.

The resort is an easy, short drive from route 429.

For something different, try Paulie's at the Oaks. Located at Continental Country Club, "just outside" the bubble on SR-44 near Morse Blvd. Nice, quiet atmosphere with a very good menu at reasonable prices.

Excellent brisket

It is old elegant, but the food is amazing and it has a cozy atmosphere. Somewhat pricy but the portions are NYC portions.

Absolutely! But good luck getting a reservation. And be prepared to spend close to a grand for a couple including drinks.

We like Prime 3 on Main St in Leesburg. The food is interesting and the wine is excellent. Enjoy!

I agree with all the above suggestions but they are all very average except Harvest Grill -white table cloth excellent food, perfect for an anniversary.

Another vote for Prime 3 in Leesburg's historic Main Street area. Check on the hours when pianist will be playing.

We've dined there on several special occasions, with requests for special table, flowers on the table, anniversary date night, and they've always been very accommodating, great staff, delicious food and wonderful ambiance.
Mark's Steakhouse in Ocala on the square is very nice, as well.
Haven't tried Prime 3 in Leesburg but hear it's very nice and somewhat pricey.

Takes me back decades to a conversion van purchase. Got a kick out of the salesman telling us how "eleguent" it was. :-)
