Rainforest - A big negative for lunch. I've never had good service there and the food is overpriced with no discount for us DDE members. My son (1 yr) hated it because they yelled "VOLCANO!" every time they brought out their signature dessert and it scared the begeezits out of him!
Ohana - YES! The menu change is DEFINITELY for the better and believe it... the bread pudding is THAT GOOD! It was THE BEST dessert I had during the whole trip! Definite THUMBS UP!
Tony's Town Square - Great for lunch! The chicken parm hero and the meatball hero were great, as was the service. I hear a lot of negative stuff on the boards about Tony's, but we really enjoyed it.
California Grill - Still a favorite. The food and the service was supremo on V-day! I had the duck 3 ways - YUMMY!!! The view of the fireworks were great and the waiter made great wine recommendations.
Beaches and Cream - Yes, we ordered the kitchen sink... just DH and I and our 1 year old. We didn't make that much of a dent in it but boy it was tasty! It (Beaches) was VERY difficult for us to find. 3 (THREE!) cast members gave us the completely wrong directions. I'm talking CMs that work AT the BEACH CLUB! It was very small but the food was good and the service was super. Not sure we'll go back though. Not very relaxing.
Chefs de France - YUMMY!!! DH and I can't believe that we've never dined here! Our dinner was AMAZING! We couldn't get over how great it was. The service was fabulous and we saw a lot of Illuminations from our table!
Mama Melrose - It used to be so much better. I like this place because it's very comfortable and never overcrowded at lunch time. Flatbread was pretty good. The calamari was good, but not as good as it used to be.
Concourse - YUCK! I couldn't believe how bad it was. Service was terrible, the waiter was completely clueless and the meal was just plain icky. It made me feel sick to my stomach. I was surprised since we've eaten there twice before. I also requested a table from which my DS could see the monorail and they sat him facing that wall that's under the monorail so it's completely impossible to see it.
Liberty Tree - Decent lunch. Not great, but not bad. Good french fries and strawberry shortcake.
Artist Point - That smokey portabello mushroom soup is still THE BEST! My filet was decent and DH loved his pork. The menu is not as exciting as it used to be, back in the day when you could get rabbit sausage or boar for an appetizer and ostrich, venison and elk all on the same plate for your entree.
Cinderella's Royal Table - Our first experience here for breakfast. The food was fantastic, as was the service. We LOVED this breakfast! We were disappointed however that we told the CRO, the hostess, 3 princesses and the Fairy Godmother that it was DS's FIRST birthday and nothing was done for him. I was NOT happy about that, but we definitely plan on going back, yummy! (The princesses did all kiss him and he looked SO CUTE afterwards! Little stud!)
Whispering Canyon Cafe - Decent Food. Great for DS's First b-day! If you want a decent cake you can get one. The CM's were SHOCKED (and so were we) at how BEAUTIFUL my son's B-day cake was! They did a FANTASTIC job! What can I say... the squeaky wheel got oiled. Don't let Disney tell you that they just do plain round cakes! This thing had 3-d cowboy boots and a hat made from white chocolate with wooden nickels stuck in front with a sheriff's badge... I'll have to post a pic when I download from the cam.
Garden Grill - What a nice lunch! Quiet, not crowded and CHARACTERS! DS loved Mickey, Chip, Dale and Pluto! DS got french fries, mac n cheese and chicken fingers (all yummy) for no charge because he was under 3! They also gave him a make-you-own-cupcake thing. Our waiter was FABULOUS and so cute!
Okay, so not as short and quick as I thought but hope you enjoyed. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
