I recently ate at Chef Mickey's on May 30th. I had a 9:20 reservation for two. I was really looking forward to the buffet as I am a huge prime rib fan. I was looking forward to the all you can eat aspect. Unfortunately all you can eat was more like all you can stand to eat.
Upon arriving for our reservation I noticed people with the same amount of people in their party getting seated before my wife and me even though they arrived after we arrived. I complained to the staff and magically my table was ready. The manager came by and apologized and offered us 30% off our bill. I appreciated the fast and courteous service of the management. We also werent charged for the one alcoholic beverage we both had. I was surprised how strong the drink was, but perhaps they wanted to get you drunk, so you wouldn't notice how terrible the food was.
The best way I can describe the quality of the food is to compare it to public school food. The ravioli tasted like it came from a can. My wife had a bad cheese cube with her salad. The mashed potatoes were of a glue consistency. The prime rib I was so looking forward to be beef instead. While the beef tasted good, it was surrounded by fat that I had to avoid to while eating it. Everything else on the buffet was bland and just not good food in the least.
After hearing about their famous dessert bar that to was disappointing. How you can have an ice cream bar without peanuts is beyond me. I know they had trail mix, but I don't want all that other stuff in my ice cream. I enjoyed the cheesecake squares and the Mickey domes, but after the awful food this was little conciliation.
I did not use the bathroom, but my wife did. She said the bathroom was disgusting. She said there was toilet paper and garbage all over the floor. This was by far the worst bathroom I was the worst I saw while at Disney.
Please stay far away from Chef Mickey's I would think that a restaurant carrying Mickey's name would serve better food. If your kids want to see the characters have them go to the designated character spots.
