I want to choose one of these 3 and would like some feedback. There will be no children...just 5 adults.
Thanks!

I would first ask if you want to see characters b/c Ohana has characters at breakfast (Mikcey, Lilo and Stitch) and Park Fare also has characters (Cinderella). We just came back from WDW and we had breakfast at Kona (it was okay, nothing fabulous), we had breakfast and dinner at Ohana (we enjoyed breakfast more than dinner) and we had dinner at Park Fare (the best out of the 3 in my books).
 
Hi,
If you talking about a dinner reservation for 5 adults, among those 3, I'd choose Kona for the meal itself. The Park Faire was good food - typical buffet stuff though, but Kona was more of and "adult" type of meal. The filet was delicious and the desserts we had were really good too. As for appetizers, I ordered the potstickers and didn't like them at all (strange flavor to me). Keep in mind that all of the restaurants are pretty loud so if you're looking for a nice, quiet dinner, you won't find them at any of these places. The nice thing about Kona is the location - the Poly is very pretty and it's nice to walk out on the beach after you eat.

Whatever you choose, you'll have a great time!

For dinner, I would take 'Ohana. We haven't been too impressed with Kona and love the atmosphere and food at 'Ohana.
 

My choice would be Kona. Excellent meal. It's not as themed as O'Hana, but the menu more than makes up for it. O'Hana is fun, good food, 1900 is fun for kids, and Kona has the best food, IMHO.
 
With just adults, I would not do Park Faire since that's a character meal.

We ate at both 'Ohana and Kona on our last trip, and we enjoyed both of them enough to put them on our repeat list for our upcoming trip in July. I'd say both have good food and nice atmospheres, but it depends on what you want from your meal.

If you want choices in your meals, close to gourmet presentation, and upscale desserts, go with Kona.

If you want a loud, festive, silly atmosphere with food served family style (and all you can eat), go with 'Ohana.

'Ohana does have activities for kids and entertainment during the meal, so if that matters to you either way, consider it when making your choice. Kona looks like a hip looking coffee shop right off the lobby (some tables are at the railing of the lobby), but the food is better than the atmosphere suggests it will be.
 
I would stay FAR away from 1900 Park Fare. Egads, that place was overrun with screaming, running toddlers!

I was there with my parents and my two kids (12 and 15) and it was just too much for us. Loud. And I'm being nice.

Personally, I'd pick Kona for the more "upscale" food, but 'Ohana can be fun with a group. Food is just not as good as Kona.
