My Disneyland dining reviews, with pictures

[DizNee Luver]

I love food porn!!!!!!!!!! keep it coming!! I would like to see some blue byou and some of the down town disney foods

Blue Bayou coming later this week, but today's edition does have food from the House of Blues!!

Breakfast at the Carnation Cafe.....very good & the potatoes are sooooooo tasty!!

Lunch at the Tomorrowland Terrace. We had a cheeseburger...yum!

Dinner at the House of Blues. We found the food good, but definately thought the food at the Cafe Orlean's was far superior. My son had the BBQ Chicken pizza & it was the bomb!! Best plate on the table. My hubby had the shrimp po-boy, my other son had the "Elwood" blackened chicken & I had the gumbo. All of it was tasty & the service was pretty good.

Tomorrow's edition of the Food Porn will be Ariel's Grotto Brkfst, Award Weiners & Taste Pilot's Grill

I had some new pictures to share but sadly I lost my camera at the end of day 2. Still hoping it will turn up with Lost and Found.

I hope you find your camera!

got2travel, were the sushi roll prices at Yamabuki reasonable? On allears.net they don't have the prices for the rolls, just the meals and a la carte things. I love sushi!

Ok, found the receipt and no the prices were not reasonable. Well, maybe for the Disney resort they might be okay. The rolls ranged from $10-14, nigiri was $8 for 2 pieces, sashimi was $11 for 4 pieces. Everything was beautifully presented and tasted good, and we will be back. If you do go, just know that you will pay more because it's Disney property. It appears to be a pretty popular place. There was a couple next to us who were locals and Yamabuki was their favorite sushi place in the area.

I hope you find your camera!

Thanks. I've checked in with Lost and Found every day since Saturday and so far it hasn't turned up. I'm already shopping for a new one. UGH! I just got that one last summer.

Club 33

Luckily I had brought a second camera so I could take pictures here. We were there for lunch. They have a cold buffet, you order your entree off the menu, then a dessert buffet. This is my 2nd opportunity to eat at Club 33 and I am sad to say that the service and quality has gone downhill. I did not enjoy my visit this time as I had in the past.

Cheeses, tomato & mozzarella salad, fruit

Ceasar salad, Spring greens salad, tortellini salad, house salad

Seafood - lobster tail (they refilled right after I took the picture), shrimp, crab claws

There was a last section with smoked salmon, potato salad with lamb chops, and a beef salad but I forgot to take a picture.

Kid's steak - no complaints, in fact one of the adults said the kid's steak was more tender than the adult entree

Halibut with lemon rissoto, tabouleh and asparagus - my son got this and his was delicious, he barely let me get a taste. His was moist and tender. But others at the table who also got the fish said it was way over cooked. They even sent it back and requested a steak.

Pasta 3 by 3 - cream sauce with mild feta, marinara sauce, and a spicy marinara type sauce. The cream sauce one was the best.

Dessert buffet - I was too stuffed to really taste much

Some sort of blackberry spongecake. Wasn't sweet enough in my opinion.

[DisneyNic]

That all looks so good. We are doing breakfast at Ariel's during our trip in Sept. Is there seconds at Ariel's or is it just a one tray/plate and that's it deal?? There will be 6 of us including 2 men who really know how to eat and I don't know if that will feed us all.....lol...

Hi Monica!
I am so sorry to hear this We will be going for our first time a week from today, and had a choice of lunch or dinner and chose lunch for the sake of our kids....seemed a better atmosphere for them, and the menu seemed more suited to them. I hate when things go downhill....at least we do not have anything to compare it to, and will be happy to just be there!

Thanks for the pics! My DS16 said the pasta looked good, so he kinda has an idea what to order.

They give you food according to how many are in your party. I'm assuming if you run out of something, you could request more.

I am going to have to try Ariel's for breakfast one of these days. I have done dinner and lunch, but those pics look yummy.

Actually, rolls in our area are around that price. And that's not even at a super fancy place.

Thank you so much!

Hey Michelle, how goes it?

You'll have a fabulous time! It's still a thrill just being inside there, so the food is secondary. Nothing was bad, except for the fish that was sent back, but it just wasn't what I had remembered. Given the chance, I'd still go again.

I guess it's all relative then. Be sure to sit at the bar so you can chat with the chef to get some special rolls. The ones on the menu were pretty boring. Francisco seemed to really have a good time being creative for us.

 

[dangerkitteey]

Everything looks delicious!!!!

I can't believe $4.25 for a chocolate covered strawberry. Are they HUGE?

We got a strawberry last trip that was the size of my fist... WORTH EVERY PENNY.

Food Porn, Day 5:

Lilo-n-Stitch buffet:

Great little buffet with plenty of choices.

Hungry Bear Restaurant:

I love this restaurant....the burgers & chicken sandwiches are very good!!

Candy Shoppe on Main Street:

Blue Bayou Dinner (as promised a few days ago):
please excuse this pic it didn't come out, but wanted you to get the idea of what the crabcakes w/mango salsa looked like (it was delicious!!!)

We split the cajun-spiced salmon (we both were given a cup of gumbo...you chose gumbo or salad). This was the best salmon I'd had in a very long time. The split plate was plenty of food....I couldn't imagine having the full serving!!

And of course we had to get the cookie boat for dessert......it IS as good as it looks!!!

I've also included a pic of the menu....not the easiest to read, but you can make out some of it.

Tomorrow will bring: Walk in Walt's Footsteps Tour Lunch, funnel cakes & PCH Grill for dinner!!
