Need GF or Poly Counter Service dinner help!

[44disney]

We are planning to get to MNSSHP around 5pm after spending the day at DHS, and want to eat before we get to the MK. Since we will have already eaten at DHS for lunch, I was thinking that we'd take the bus from DHS around 3:30pm to either the GF or the Poly to grab a quick bite before hopping on the monorail to go to the MK (we will be eating CS at the MK a few times throughout the week so we don't want to eat there).

So...what are your thoughts on the GF (Gasparilla Grill) or the Poly (Captain Cook's).

What is good and what should we avoid?

Has anyone eaten at both?

Thanks!!!

We have only eaten at Captain Cook's and we were not that impressed. It is very crowded and the food was only okay. I would try the Grand Floridian.

I've only eaten at Capt. Cooks and thought the food was good. The Aloha Pork sandwhich was really good.

We love Captain Cook's. They have a few different choices that I LOVE - stir fried noodles (which I avoided for the longest time and then loved them when I got them) and the pork sandwich is really good too. They also have Dole Whip.

I have been to both locations and while both were very good, I liked Gasparilla's just a little bit more so I would go there.

Gasparilla is very small and very crowded. And, the food is fair to poor. We were wholly unimpressed and we were staying at GF! We avoided it.

Why not eat in MK? We thought Pecos Bills was better than Gasparilla. And, there's a lot more room!

We stayed at GF last year and while we we were there we also ate at Capt Cooks at the Poly 1 time. I thought there were more choices at the GF and they were better choices (for us anyway) and all the food we had there was yummy. I did not enjoy my meal at Capt Cooks. However we are staying at the POLY this Sept so I hope to change my mind about that while I am there. Will let you know.
