I was really hoping that CP would announce the addition of a new sit-down restaurant in either the old Melt or Famous Dave’s marina spaces (or, both). There’s not a lot of full-service after-park dinner options available now other than TGI Fridays (not a fan of Bay Harbor) so will probably give the hibachi place in Breakers a try this year. Yeah, I know Famous Daves just moved over to Castaway Bay, but the part I like about that vacation the best is once I land at Hotel Breakers I don’t get in the car or leave the peninsula for two days 😀

I was also hoping for a third option (we don't like Friday's).  Best part of the marina space was when it served Montgomery Inn ribs!  

Tomo's (Breakers habachi place) Is the meal my wife and I look forward to each time we go.  It's fantastic!  (More Saki, More Happy!!!)  Also it looks like the Bay Harbor Menu has had some changes to it.  Looking forward to trying some of the new offerings.  Perkins is also great but isn't open for Dinner.
