eating at DownTown Disney

[sparks19]

We are going t DTD on the night we arrive and want to grab a bite to eat there. nothing fancy just grab a meal while we are out. It will be hubby and I, DD4 and my inlaws. We've done rainforest cafe and that was WAY to obnoxious for us. my DD hated all the loud noises. so T rex is out too.

I was thinking of Cap'n Jacks but I don't have much experience dining at DTD.

Where do you like to eat there?

. . . I was thinking of Cap'n Jacks but I don't have much experience dining at DTD . . .

1) No.
2) Great for appys and drinks.
3) Nasty for meals.
4) Try House of Blues.

Even though it is a CS think about Wolf Gang Pucks express it is very good & they have outside seating. Capt Jacks we did not like at all. I also have been seeing some wonderful reviews for Raglan Road.

I would also recommend Wolfgang Puck's Express, Pollo Campero, or Bongo's. Bongo's is a Table Service, the other 2 are counter service meals. I've never been to Capt Jacks but heard it was so-so and I've never been of House of Blues food, but that may just be me.

LOVE Wolfgang Puck Express. We just ate there twice last week. The barbecue chicken pizza is soooo good - I've been waiting 2 years to have it again!

Next trip, I want to try out Earl of Sandwich, too.

We've already eaten at Rainforest Cafe - but if you've eaten at one, you've pretty much eaten at them all. T Rex strikes me as being very similar.

Wolfgang puck express its a very nice counter service place , you order and then a server brings your food to the table .
Its a must for us !

Grab a bite can mean a lot of things. I guess I would recommend Raglan Road for a table service or Wolfgang Puck Express for pizza. It is a little on the greasy side, but some of us like that.

Earl is also very good if you want a sandwich.

Another vote for Wolfgang Puck Express here! LOVE that place!!
We also like Earl of Sandwich but I think of that as more of a lunch place than dinner...

Wolfgang Puck Express. It has really great food!

Wolfgang Pucks Express is really good. The bacon wrapped meatloaf, well it's better than my meatloaf, it's fantastic actually (having a flash back moment). The chinese chicken salad made with the rotiserrie chicken is excellent as is the roasted beets, spinach, goat cheese and pecans salad. Making up my mind is the hardest part. My son loves the Tortilla Soup, the turkey melt and the pepperoni pizza (w/out mushrooms).

If you don't like loud noises definitively stay away from T-Rex, the food is good but it's noisy! I prefer the food there to the Rainforest, apparently they are from the same chain!

House of Blues is good.

Pollo Campero and Earl of sandwich are good and more casual, take out type of atmosphere!

We've really enjoyed Pardisio - interesting mix of items on the menu and fun atmosphere.

hmmm seems overwhelmingly good reports for WPE. maybe we will try that just to make sure...we don't need a reservation there right? or should we? nevermind just found out the answer to my own question lol no reservations

I would eat at The house Of Blues, Great food and service, If the music is to loud ask to be seated out back, You will love it.

Can't help with sit down TS options since I never do those @ DTD. My CS recommendations are Cookes of Dublin (CS attached to Raglan Road), Earl of Sandwich or Wolfgang Pucks Express. In my experience WPE is always crowded & takes much longer than either of the other two. It was closed for renovations last time I was there but that was back in May. Cookes has very limited indoor seating and somewhat limited outdoor seating. Earl of Sandwich had at least doubled their indoor seating but that may have been temporary due to WPE being closed (but I hope not). They also have outdoor seating. WPE has both also.
