Our two biggest disappointments was Concourse Steakhouse & Akershus Storybook Princess Storey Book (Norway)
Concocourse:
For dinner we went to Concourse Steakhouse, which is not there anymore. We arrived 10 minutes prior to our adr. I checked us in and was told to have a seat and we would be seated shortly. 20 minutes later dh went up and asked how much longer they said we were the next table that seat five. We waited 35 minutes past our adr time and was finally seated.. We waited at our table for oh about 10 minutes before our server came around. Once she showed up she was very pushy and rushed us to place our order. No may I get your drinks she wanted the full order right then. Besides my ds we all had steak. NY strip for the big people and ribeye for dd. To say they were okay is generous. I found mine a bit dry. I like my steaks med-rare so there was no reason while it was dry. They lacked flavor simple salt and pepper were needed. They were all full of gristle and fat. For dessert the younger two got the sundaes. Dss got the Triple Chocolate Cake he said it was moist and good. Throughout the meal our glasses were empty numerous times. The service between meals were slow. And the food itself was just okay. Let me add that our server was so slow and rude that this was one time I wish I could have controlled the gratuity because this waitress was not very good at all. I am not surprised at all that this restaurant is not longer open.
By far the biggest disappointment was Akersuhus!
Akersuhus:
Let me start by saying our waiter was very rude and pushy for the beginning. I asked if iced tea came with the meal I was told they did not even have iced tea in the restaurant. On my way back from the cold bar guess what I saw???? A lady drinking Iced tea. I asked our server again and WOW he found some. lol. Some of the food on the cold bar like the fruit & smoked salmon was very good. However, some of the other looked as if it had sat out through out the morning. Our adr was 10:10 in the moring. The bacon on the hot plate that came to the table was gross. Some of it was soggy, which we like ours crispy, other pieces were no where near done. The princesses were awesome with the kids. About ½ through our meal they started changing for lunch. They were in a hurry to get us out of there. When our first hot plate was nearly through we asked for another and was treated like the waiter was doing us a favor for us. Our glasses were empty often and like I said getting our hot plate re-filled was a task in & of itself. They were very much in a hurry to get us through. The wait staff was rude and down right mean at times. The one Princess dd wanted to see was Belle. She was the only Princess we had not seen. Belle had not came around so we were finished eating but was about ½ dozen tables away so we were waiting for her. The wait staff was very inpatient for us to leave. To the point our waiter came over and asked if we were finished. I explained yes we were done eating but waiting on Belle. He was walking away and said whatever! The food was okay, the Princesses were awesome the wait staff was horrible. We were all about ½ sick after eating here dss even vomited.

I hear the fish isnt good at coral reef but what about the steak or chicken?
When I asked for a straw he threw about 20 in my face.
