Electric Umbrella (Epcot) question

[epcotty]

Last time we tried this restaurant, it was random as to when people got their food, and we ended up waiting a long time because of that with some people who ordered later getting food earlier. They had to eventually try to get us our food in spite of the system. Is it still like that?

I've never experienced that.
The "order fulfillment system" at EU is nearly identical to many other WDW counter service restaurants.
I'd assume that you experienced a temporary problem based on the particular
CMs working there (or a computer problem) at that time.

We didn't have any issues there, it seemed fairly quiet when we were in though

Never had this issue and we've been there quite a few times.

I have never had that experience there.
I get in line, order, and get my food right after the person in front of me.
The only place that I have experienced what you describe is at Ear Of Sandwich at DS.
That is where they hand you the pager and then it does seem like I see others that very clearly ordered after me getting their food before me. In that situation I think it just depends on what was ordered.

Maybe they just don't LISTEN very well there.

Thanks for the responses everyone. It was 6 years ago but we've avoided that restaurant ever since because of that. Hopefully it wouldn't happen again and hopefully usually it goes in the order it's received
