hey Florida travelers Chrissa here and we recently visited the wave at the contemporary
hotel so if you are thinking about eating here for dinner I'm gonna go over all of
the details so you guys know exactly what to expect the wave of American flavors is
one of three sit-down restaurants located at the contemporary hotel in Disney world
we came here for dinner on a Saturday night and reservations are not required but highly
recommended we actually got to the restaurant well before our reservation time and we were
really hoping that we could squeeze in a little bit early but they were running right on schedule
so we did take the opportunity to just walk around and check out the contemporary it's actually been
a couple of years since we've been here so it was really nice to just visit the resort they do have
a couple of gift shops here that you are able to walk around in plus it's kind of fun to just
hang out and watch the monorail go by the wave is easily accessible if you are spending the day
at the magic kingdom you can get there by car by monorail or even on foot it is just one stop
over from the monorail you just have to make sure that you're taking the resort monorail and not the
express monorail because if you take the express you're gonna swing right by it the entryway to
the wave is very contemporary just like the food and i love it this restaurant serves new
american cuisine that is inspired by a passion for locally and regionally sourced ingredients
this restaurant serves breakfast lunch and dinner and this review is just going to
be going over dinner but i have heard that the breakfast here is also worth trying out
the restaurant space here is very modern and it's not as big as other disney restaurants so
it gives you kind of a more intimate setting they do have a few safety measures in place first they
have their tables spaced at least six feet apart and you are required to wear a mask until you get
to your table also the menu here is digital so you do have to scan the qr code with your phone
and it will bring you straight to the digital menu this is something that you will see at
many of the other table service restaurants in disney world right now i really don't mind the
digital menu but i know some people really miss having that tangible menu in your hands
the dinner entree prices per person can range anywhere between 35 dollars
to 60 my husband and i are so like-minded that we both wanted to try the tenderloin so we decided
that one of us is gonna get the beef tenderloin and the other one would order the pork tenderloin
and we would just share and split them so that we could try them both one of the little things that
i really appreciate about most disney restaurants is their implementation of paper straws i really
like them and appreciate how environmentally friendly they are they do give you bread while
you're waiting for your food and i have to say that i love bread i just love bread in general
and they even salt the better which is a nice touch we started out our dinner with the lump
crab cake which was absolutely delicious i was a little disappointed that it wasn't the jumbo
size crab pieces that you usually get in like a maryland style crab cake either way it was
still really good and i recommend it if you love crab cakes our entrees came out in good time and
wow these dishes are beautifully plated here is the beef tenderloin that my husband ordered which
by the way came with the largest asparagus that i've ever seen in my life seriously this asparagus
is the size of a baby's arm and i couldn't believe it if anyone knows if this is a special kind of
asparagus that i'm just not familiar with let me know in the comments below i am genuinely
just very curious i do have to say in the battle of the tenderloins i think that i preferred my
pork tenderloin over my husband's beef tenderloin the pork tenderloin was perfectly cooked and is
served over the most delicious smoked cheddar grits in broccolini to be honest you really
couldn't go wrong if you did order either one of these dishes we really loved them both
we topped our dinner off with the chocolate flight for dessert
and the chocolate flight comes with the chocolate croissant bread pudding which hands down
was my favorite of the three but i also loved the brownie creme brulee and the german chocolate cake
it was such an awesome way to end a really great dinner and i highly recommend this choice if you
are a chocolate lover overall we had an amazing experience the food is great the service is even
better and to be honest we have eaten here before the wave was the very first disney
restaurant that my husband and i ever ate at when we started this adventure to try to eat at
every table service restaurant in disney world but we decided to start our list all over again
from scratch so then that way we could bring you guys along with us on our journey well i hope that
