Hi Alyssa!
Thanks for visiting the Moms Panel with your question.
Sounds like you have a great evening planned! Citricos is a fantastic choice for a special dinner.
I can't begin to tell you how highly I would recommend that you try the
Never Land Club. It has been the highlight of my kids' vacations over the years. In fact, my 12 year old daughter literally cried upon picking her up on her last visit, knowing she would be too old on our next trip! To reserve the Never Land Club, be sure to call 407-WDW-DINE in advance of your arrival at Walt Disney World.
To get to Disney's Polynesian Resort from Disney's Boardwalk Resort, take the bus to Magic Kingdom. Upon arrival there, jump on the Resort Monorail or take a Resort Launch for a leisurely boat ride across the Seven Seas Lagoon. Be sure to allow a full hour of total travel time.
After dinner, after picking up at the Never Land Club, you'll have a few options to consider depending on Park Hours that evening. If you'd like, write me back with the date of your plans and that way I can give you the best possible recommendation for that particular evening, based on Extra Magic Hours if applicable.
Alternatively, you may consider hiring a taxi cab from the lobby concierge at the Polynesian, or taking a bus to Downtown Disney, and then a bus to Disney's BoardWalk from there.
I hope to hear from you again soon.
Wishing you and your family a simply Magical time at Walt Disney World Alyssa!
