Hi all,
I got so much help from this board on my dining that I hope these reviews help someone in return. There was myself DH, DD10, DS7 and DD4.
4/15- arrival day dinner Yacht Club Galley - I was surprised by how good the food was here - I don't think I've read anything about it so we were going to go somewhere else but everything was booked so we ate here. The service was incredibly friendly, quick and all around wonderful. Our meals were delicious and we were off to a great start at Disney! Will eat here again.
4/16 lunch at Sunshine Seasons - we went here on the suggestion of so many here and it did not disappoint. The selection of food was the best of any CS we went to and all our meals were good - this location does get busy so eat lunch early! Will eat here again.
dinner - Germany - we found the buffet to be just okay but we had a great time watching the entertainment. They invite the kids to come up and dance on the dance floor and my DD4 had a blast with the umpah band. We would go here again especially with a large group - we did have a great time.
4/17 lunch at Pecos Bill - The burgers here were surprisingly good or maybe we were just starving but we all really liked them especially all the fixings. We ate here just so I could see what all the fuss was about with the fixings and as most of you said - the fixings are GREAT - the onions and mushrooms were being made fresh - the tomatoes were bright red - the lettuce was crisp - I was really impressed. We will eat here again.
dinner - Chef Mickeys - It was loud, it was busy, it was chaotic but the kids had a blast the characters were great and the food was again surprisingly good. The best however was the dessert buffet - it is incredible - so many selections we all loved it. We will come back again.
4/18 lunch at Sci-fi Diner - We did burgers again and they were good but not better than Pecos. I got the mellon instead of fries and it was very good and fresh. We loved eating in the cars and of course the kids thought it was way cool. My DD4 though did get scared by some of the movies they show and I had to leave with her early so if you have young ones some of the movie clips could be scary for them.
dinner - Yachtmans and Cape May Cafe - The kids went with their grandparents to the Cape May Cafe Clam bake - their review was that it was great food but the desserts were better at Chef Mickeys. Overall they liked Chef Mickeys better. DH and I had a nice quiet romantic dinner at Yachtmans and it was outstanding. We'll be back.
4/19 lunch at Typhoon Lagoon - run of the mill cs food although the salads and wraps were really good and fresh.
Dinner - spoodles pizza window - the pizza was good but a bit thicker than I like - our night on the Boardwalk was a lot of fun though. We saw the street entertainers, rode a surrey bike and walked around.
4/20 lunch at Pecos again - like I said we really liked it!
dinner - L'originale Alfredos - This was one of our best meals which surprised me because this restaurant gets some real mixed reviews but we really enjoyed our food, the entertainment was fun and our waiter was the absolute best we had all week. Alessandro really made our evening wonderful and the kids adored him.
4/21 lunch at Akershus Princess lunch - What an amazing experience for my DD4 - this place is AWESOME - who needs CRT? The restaurant absolutely makes you feel like you are in a castle - my DD was completely overwhelmed. We had gone to the BBB first and she was all done up like Aurora. We walked in and there is Aurora - DD was beaming. Then we walked over to our table and Snow White, Ariel, Cinderella and Belle all came by. It was a princess bonanza!!! I think I was as excited as she was to be among so much royalty. Oh ya the food - the food was actually good. The cold bar had excellent salads, cheeses and cold meats (turkey, ham, salami etc.) I ordered the pasta with chicken and it was very tasty. I HIGHLY recommend this princess experience.
dinner - Catalina Eddies - CS pizza - our least favorite meal of the trip - won't return.
4/22 Breakfast Yacht Club Galley - excellent breakfast buffet and DD4 ordered the Mickey waffels - everything was hot, fresh and very tasty. We'll be back.
That's it - any questions?
