Just back-- my dining experiences

[GarrettJD]

Hello eveyone! We just got back from our trip and we had several terrific dining experiences at WDW.

Our new favorite is 'Ohana! Great food, great service, and fun atmosphere, plus the food just keeps coming! My only problem was that we ate so much that we didn't feel like riding much at the Magic Kingdom after that.

We ate at Boma again-- it was our favorite restaurant on our last trip. The food was wonderful, but the service was slightly disappointing this time. Our server took forever to get our drink refills, and the service just wasn't up to the level I expected from our last visit. However, we'll still do this one every trip-- the food was just too good to pass up. I'm sure the service will be better next time.

We did Hollywood & Vine with the Fantasmic dinner package and it was a good buffet-- we certainly got our money's worth. We ended up getting rained out of Fantasmic, though. (We've been rained out of Fantasmic all 3 times we tried to see it-- once last year and twice this year. ) I would probably book the package again, though.

We did dinner at Crystal Palace after having done breakfast there last year. The food was good but I think I enjoyed breakfast more.

We also ate at two World Showcase restaurants. We ate at Le Cellier for lunch, and it was great. The cheese soup was fantastic. We both ordered prime rib sandwiches which were terrific as well. The atmosphere was nice and quiet here, and service was excellent. Rose and Crown was good too-- we enjoyed the fish and chips. That's one BIG piece of fish!

We did a ton of counter-service meals, and none really stood out except for Pecos Bill's-- GREAT toppings bar.

All in all, no bad meals, and a great trip!

Thanks for the reviews! We'll be trying 'Ohana for the first time next week - can't wait! And we're going on a non-park day, so we won't have to worry about being too full to ride the rides.

Glad you had a great trip!

Thanks for posting your great reviews. I have to agree with you about Peco's Bills, we just love there burgers and fixin's bar. We are going to try O'Hanas for the first time on our next trip, so I was glad to see how much you liked it.

Did you go to Ohana's for dinner or the character breakfast? We love the breakfast and go every trip. But, I know what you mean about eating too much. Fortunately, we usually stay at the Poly and it's an easy walk back to the room for a nap! I am so afraid that we will get rained out of Fantasmic, too. It happened to us last summer, but the H&V folks let us cancel the package at the last minute. This year we saved the package for our last night and booked the Brown Derby. The problem is that the ressie is at 3:00 and the show is not until 9:00. I'd hate to pay for the package, just eat, and then get rained out. The sky can sure change in six hours! Oh well! i guess that's just the chance you take! Thanks for the reviews.

We went to dinner at Ohana, but I'd like to try the breakfast sometime. We're two adults, no kids, but we're big kids when it comes to the characters.

Hi Garret, just curious as to why you liked the CP breakfast more than dinner? I have never been there and am trying to decide between Dinner and breakfast as my dd isn't a big breakfast eater!! Well she's not a big eater at any meal Thanks.
