We have eaten at Rosie's the last 2 times we've been at MGM (because of time/location) & have never liked it. Quite honestly, it is worse than McDonald's. (and I like McD's! ) Try to find a better place!

I'll have to disagree with Tiffany. I certainly wouldn't promote Rosie's as a gourmet spot, but we eat there every trip. Its one of the few places that serves veggie burgers, which is what I always get there. My daughter got chicken strips. My wife and MIL got burgers and were perfectly happy with them.

I wouldn't set foot in a McDonalds unless it was to buy a particularly good Happy Meal toy.

jann1033 - the menu is exactly as it appears at wdwig
