We were on Deluxe Dining Plan
Restaurants we went to:
BREAKFAST
Hollywood and Vine - This was a character meal our ADR was for 8:05 and we were seated right away. The characters were JoJo , Galieth, June, and Leo. The kids liked it. They did a cute little song and dance with the kids. The food was good. The service was good. My kids are not as into these characters anymore, but we wanted to get into park early.
Tusker House - This was a very good breakfast. We had an 8:05 adr. There was alot of walking to get to there. I was not hungry when we got off the bus, but was after that walk. The picture that they take does not have the greatest background. I love the juice served here. The characters were Daisy, Goofy, Donald, and Mickey. It was alot of fun. The kids did the song and dance with the charactes. We think we will do this one again.
Crystal Palace - We did dinner here last time and really wanted to try breakfast. We had an ADR for 8:05. We waited about 10 minutes to be seated. The food was good and so was our server. The characters were Pooh, Tigger, Piglet, and Eyore. They took time at each table which was nice. My son did not want to let go of Pooh or Piglet. We enjoyed this breakfast. It was not as hectic as some buffets. The kids did the song and dance here too. We want to try lunch next time.
Grand Flotidian Cafe - I went here alone. My kids did the pirate adventure so I figured I would have a nice quiet breakfast. The atmosphere is nice. I had the 3 cheese omlette. It was delicious. I love Disney eggs for some reason. The service was not that great. My food took a while and my waitress was not attentive at all.
1900 Park Fare - This was another character breakfast. The food was ok. The service was good. The characters were mad hatter, alice, marry poppins, pooh, and tigger. It was very rushed and hectic.
Ohanas - This was a very nice atmosphere. We met lilo stitch mickey, and goofy. The food was ok but it was luke warm. This was a nice relaxing breakfast. The kids did the song and dnce and had a good time. The service was ok.
Chef Mickeys - This place is always hectic. We were 20 minutes late for our ADR but still got seated pretty quick. The food was good and so was the service. Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, and Donald were the characters.
LUNCH
Rose and Crown Pub - we had the fish and chips here. It was very good. We sat outside in their dining section. There were tons of seagulls. I am not a fan of seagulls, but oh well.
Everything Pop - i had the meditteranean flat bread here and it was excellent. My kids both got kids meals. One had the chicken nuggets and one had the pizza. it was betterthan i thought it would be.
Sci Fi Dine in - we chose this place based on its atmosphere. It is a cool photo op and good theming. I didnt like our waiter much. He seemed off. I had the shrimp penne for my entree which was ok but not great. I had the BLT soup for my app and I thought it was different and very good. For dessert i had some pb fudge thing that was delicious. My kids had the meaty pasta and liked it they got shakes for dessert.
T Rex - this was not on the dining plan but my kids love dinosaurs. The wait was about 15 minutes. This place is great inside. our server was Alexander and I mention his name because he was excellent. The food haere was not spectacular but very good. My kids loved it. I had the quesadilla. My kids had chicken tenders. The bill with tip came to about 50.
Pinoccios Hausen - This was nothing special. We ordered chick tenders/nuggets. The food was common to what you would get from mcdonalds.
Le Cellier- I was excited about coming here because i had heard so much about it. I liked the atmosphere of it. Our waitress was nice. I had the duck for an app which was good. I had a maple chix sandwhich was ok. I had the moose head for dessert it was very good. My kids ordered kids meals which are pretty much the same everywhere. This meal was good but did not live up to hype maybe i will try it for dinner instead next time.
CRT - I was sick today so I couldnt eat much. All I had was the potatos and they were very good. You dont go to this place for food though. You are the for the experience. We saw Snow white, Jasmine, cinderella, aurora, and belle. Our picture came out cute and the kids liked doing the wish on the star. We had dinner here before and it was a little different.
50's Prime Time Cafe - I loved this place. I thought it was so cute inside. My kids liked it alot to and we will definitley be doing it again. I had the meatloaf and it was delicious. I would have liked our waitress to ham it up a bit more but oh well. The dessert was excellent.
DINNER
Spirit of Aloha - This meal was a little disappointing. I forgot our servers name, but she was another one that stood out. She was excellent. It was very busy here. The food was really good. The show was ok. my kids did not like it. They wanted to leave and so we did. I bought the picture package though. It was very cute.
Flying Fish Cafe - I wanted to try this place and was looking forward to it. It did not live up to expectations, but was still very good. I had the crab cake for an app and wish i could have had it for a meal as well. It was one of the best i have had. I had the potato snapper, but it did not live up to the crab cake. It was very good though. I was to full for dessert and passed. My kids had steak and the other pasta. They liked the food. They loved their dessert. It was the puzzle one. The service here was not good.
Raglan Rd - Our server here was Nathan. He was excellent too. I was not a big fan of the food, but he was great. I like the set up of the place. Very cozy feeling. I had the shep pie. It was vry different and very filling. I only ate half. I had the lickn chickn for my app and it was very dry and flavorless. I had some choc thing for dessert that was very choc. My kids were very happy with their meals either.
Yak and Yeti- I am so glad we came here. It was a great meal. My waiter was ok. I had the tuna for an app and it was great. I was hoping the entree would be just as good. I had the duck and it was fabulous. My kids loved their food here as well. The restaurant is decorated very good. We took lots of pics. I want to eat here again.
Tony's Town Square - I won't probably eat here again, but it was ok. The service wasnt that great nor the food. I like the fountain in the middle. I had seafood diavoli or something like that. The dessert was very sweet but good. I lovedthe plate it came on. My kids had spaghetti.
Liberty Tree Tavern - This was another one of our favorites. The characters were Chip, Goofy, Pluto, and Minnie. It was fun. Minnie was dancing like she was a club to entertain some bachororette party girls. The food was soooo good and so filling. i was lucky I could walk after. The service was great here too. The place is also cozy. We will probably eat here again even though they took out the characters.
1900 Park Fare - This was a pretty good experience. Prince charming was there, cinderella, lady tremaine, and the 2 evil stepsisters. The characters really played their part. The food was good, although I got food poisoning here and was sick all night and half the next day.
Cosmic Rays - This is our favorite counter service. The food is good. There is alot of seating. The show is very cute.
Everything POP - we came here late one night at about 11:30. I had chicken alfredo and it was good. The kids had pizza. Typical fast food but a little better.
Biergarten - This was another favorite of the trip. I am not used to all the sausage but it was fun trying new things. I love the atmosphere in here. The singing was very good. our server was good. It was a very nice experience. I would like to come here again.
Hoop De Doo Revue - We did this on our last night there and what a good way to end the trip. This was alot of fun. The comedy was a little grown but still ok to take the kids. my kids enjoyed it alot. The food is good and the service was good. Very original show.
