We are staying with a party of 8 at kidani and dod not realize there were barely any food options! I've been trying for ANY reservation for sanaa but there is nothing available for breakfast lunch or dinner! I was hoping someone could offer recent experiences with dining here... I also heard you can get take out? But is there anywhere for a quick burger and fries?
 
We just spent 5 NTS there, last leg of our 3 way split stay.

Breakfast at sanaa is quick service, but there can be long lines in the mornings. DH tried twice our first morning, line too long first time, second time it was short but the person taking orders also made the fancy coffee drinks, so it was taking too long. He was successful another day in getting breakfast though. We bought a box of entemanns cinnamon rolls from the shop and a fruit cup for other breakfasts.

The pool bar is open for quick service...never ventured there though, so not sure of the hours or menu other than what is listed on the app.

We had an ADR for Sanaa one night, so we had dinner there once. Had food at the parks other days or got food from the kidani shop fridge. The fridge in the shop had 2 types of salad--tandoori chicken Caesar, or a harvest salad with chickpeas, and a couple sandwiches--turkey club with bacon and arugula on multigrain bread and a curried tuna salad croissant sandwich. We tried all of those and they were yummy. They also sell deli meats, a cheese/salami/cracker thing, celery/carrots/ranch dip, fruit cup, grapes, and frozen foods like pizza if you have an oven. They also sell zebra domes in the shop!

There is no place at Kidani for burgers/fries.. We didn't attempt to do the takeout option at sanaa after reading some of the stories of long waits on the boards.

We didn't try to do it, so not sure what they offer or how to do it....the only info I saw about it was on these boards. I think you place the order in the Sanaa lounge...so maybe look at the lounge menu? I had read reports shortly after reopening that people were waiting hours just to place an order as there were so many people doing it at the same time, and I think the restaurant closes at 10? Sorry I can't help more with that.
 

Are any of the other dining options open at Jambo (quick service)?
There are no dining options open at Jambo. Jambo only has the DVC rooms, the pool, animals on savanna, and basic lobby service ooen...no shop and no food.
 
Thanks for the heads up! I was thinking about moving from the Beach Club but they just announced Stormalong Bay will be opened so Ill be staying put.

Try calling or split your group into parties of 4. That was what we had to do for Sanaa and found availability
 
We stayed a few weeks back. We had rented a car and dined primarily outside of AK due to limited food options. I love Sanaa though and kept looking every day for a reservation for dinner and one opened up a few days before our trip. I think there are still cancellations happening - so keep looking. Sanaa also has breakfast to pick up. Pool has very limited food. Good suggestion above on splitting party into 2 groups of 4 for reservations. Good luck!

lol -we moved to AK from Beach Club a few weeks ago when we visited because of the pool situation. So glad it is opening - have a great time!

Glad you are having fun. Too bad Bob Evans or Dennys won't deliver
