Just got back from a quick 4-night trip.
We pre-booked an ADR for a 7:00 dinner for Rose & Crown for three adults. This is a tradition for us and our favorite way to watch Illuminations. We actually got to the Pub at 6:15 for a drink and to watch "the piano lady". We had a fun time and sang along with quite a few songs. At 6:55, I checked in at the restaurant and asked for an outside table and indicated that we would wait if necessary. The hostess let me know that she would put in the request but couldn't promise the outside table. I went back to the pub for more singing and drinking while we waited. We waited 5-10 minutes and the buzzer went off. We were seated at a center table with a perfect view of the water.
We let the server know that we were going to stay for Illuminations, we had a Tables in Wonderland card and that we would take care of her. We ordered drinks and appetizers. We had beer and cider first and then switched to wine. Appetizers include the cheese plate and the Scotch Egg. Both were good. In fact, I bought some of the cheese after we got home. We split two entrees - Bangers and Mash and Cottage Pie. Also added a side dish - Bubble and Squeak. All were good - still craving the Bubble and Squeak. For dessert we had the chocolate bread pudding. We liked everything we ordered and would order it again.
We booked two other ADRs while we were there - both the day before we used them.
The first was a dinner at Liberty Tree Tavern - It was consistent with our other trips there - very nice to sit down and relax at the MK with "Thanksgiving". Our least favorite part of the meal were the garlic green beans (too much garlic) and the dessert (not very flavorful).
The second was lunch at Tony's Town Square - this was our last day and we left after lunch but we want to take the time to sit for lunch. We had the fried zucchini appetizer and split two entrees (chicken parmesan and a margarita pizza). We always enjoy Tonys and don't understand all the negative reviews. We would definitely order everything again.
We also stopped by the Brown Derby Lounge while waiting for the lines at Rock 'n Rollercoaster to shorten. We tried the Margarita Flight (delicious) and split the entree size cob salad, the cheese plate and another salad on the menu. First time to try the lounge - nice for people watching and relaxing.
One last comment - We usually split two entrees between the three of us, whether it is a quick service or table service. The serving sizes are large and it allows us to try different things.
We also tried the quick service at Pop Century, Yak and Yeti and Pecos Bills.
Let me know if you have any questions.
