Les Chefs de France - Disapointment of the Trip

[chirurgeon]

I have always loved Chefs de France. I generally only eat lunch there. I normally get the onion soup and the quiche. I have only had dinner there once but that was the first time I ate there and it started this being an every trip restaurant for me. I have never been disappointed. I will be making an ADR for my next trip when the 180 day window opens up.

Give it a chance.

I am looking forward to our dinner @ Chefs, everyone has different tastes & valid experiences but Im keeping an open mind!

We went there 2 1/2 or 3 years ago and it was just not good. Ig we would have not been on the Dining plan we would have either complained or left.....It was that bad. The food was just flavorless. It honestly reminded me of nursing home food. Even my children did not like it and they eat anythin and EVERYTHING. It was the big disapontmany of our trip that year and we haven't been back. The waiters were also quite stingy with bread and drinks . We still remember that because it was just odd.

Chef's is normally one of our top choices. But when we ate there last year, the food was so salty, it wasn't edible. We're on the Deluxe Dining Plan this time, so we are trying it for lunch, since the menu is slightly different. And if we don't care for the food, we'll still have a dinner choice somewhere else.

Hmmm, they only had one French beer on the menu, and the waiter poured the bottle it like it was wine causing way too much foam. Pouring a beer propely isn't rocket science.

I had the lamb which was excellent.

This was our first dinner during our last trip and DH and I enjoyed it. Maybe it was all the excitement of finally being back at WDW but I thought the food was very good. I had French Onion soup and loved it! DH had the Lobster Bisque and basically licked the bowl clean. Then DH had the salmon and it was good, it's basic salmon but I really liked the sauce that was on it. I had the Beef Tenderloin w/ scalloped potato and the beef was cooked perfectly. Wasn't big on the green beans as they were a bit rubbery but the beef and the potatoes were great. Had the crepe for dessert and wasn't very impressed. I can't remember what DH had for dessert so obviously that wasn't memorable. So all in all I would go back.

Always loved Les Chefs de France until last year when we had a poor meal. We have usually made reservations at 8pm and found that is timed perfectly for the gap between the end of the main dish and the dessert. Normally we make our order and then nip out to see the fireworks but the meal was so poor last time we just left instead of ordering dessert.

Let's hope it gets back to normal service... did they hire a new manager?

We have an ADR here in June and I think we have to eat here because we're a party of 13 and I'm pretty sure the other places would not have availability this late!!
I hope the food is not too bad as I picked this place and the other 12 people will not be happy if all of the food is dry and salty!
I will keep my fingers crossed that it goes OK!

We ate there last month and the food was very good. Hubby and I both had salads and the beef tenderloin and the profiterolles(sp?) for dessert. The only complaint was the rushed service. The main course was out before we were half done with the salads.

Chefs was always our favorite. But after a truly awful meal there (except for the Tarte a la Alsacienne, which was delicious), we won't be back again. After waiting 50 minutes past our ADR time (we arrived 10 minutes early for that), and truly indifferent service, I would have been more than happy to write that off if the food had been good. I had the duck--the skin on it was white and flabby! Hubby had the salmon, cooked beyond all reasoning. The sweet potato (which I normally love) was inedible. We were so disappointed.

On our last trip in May 2008, we spent the week eating and dining.

This was my least favorite aside from the Electric Umbrella and The CS in Germany, Epcot.

It's sad to say that in 8 days of dining it only beats these two CS meals.
That means all the other TS and most other CS meals were better in food and service.

We are going to dine because my 10yr dd wants to eat in France. So I am hoping for the best. If my dd didn't want to eat there so bad, I would have changed to ressie a long time ago. After reading all the reviews here. O'well
