Ohana breakfast? Dinner?

wondering which one would be better to go to?

It depends on what your interests are as they are completely different experiences. Breakfast is an AYCTE character meal with Mickey, Pluto, Lilo and Stitch. Dinner is also AYCTE, but has Polynesian inspired foods (with a heavy emphasis on meats) plus live Polynesian music and games (coconut races, the limbo, etc.). We much prefer dinner (we find the breakfast food too salty), but many people will chime in saying they prefer breakfast. It just really depends on what type of experience interests you more.

I agree that it depends on what type of experience you're looking for.
We've done both, and like both but I would say dinner is liked better by my family.

We much prefer breakfast, but again it all depends on the preferences of your family and the time you have. We would rather start with a great breakfast and then have the rest of the day. By dinner, we don't want to spend an hour or two. Again, just family preferences.

If you just want the characters, go for breakfast. If you're going for the food, try dinner. The breakfast menu is just the standard eggs, bacon, waffles... However, they do have the famous POG juice (I'm craving some right now!) at breakfast and not dinner. Dinner is all you can eat steak, shrimp, chicken, noodles, salad, bread, vegetables, wings, pot stickers, and bread pudding. I ate there for dinner last fall for the first time and am planning on going back my next trip.

We could only get an ADR for breakfast....though I am still hoping the dinner ADR opens up.

After dropping our daughter off at Lilo's Playhouse (the Polynesian's kids club) we'll ride the ferry over to Grand Floridian for the life-size gingerbread house then take a romantic stroll along the Seven Seas Lagoon to dinner at 'Ohana. After watching the MK fireworks from the Polynesian it will be a short walk to their parking lot for the drive back to ASM. We eat breakfast in our room and save snack credits for. . . snacks.

Breakfast IMO is quick service quality. Eggs, bacon, sausage, Mickey waffles, potatoes, fruit and bread. Characters were fun, but if you aren't there for the characters there are much better breakfasts on property. Dinner looks more appealing, but I haven't tried it yet.

We love the dinner at Ohana but if you want to meet the characters then I would do breakfast. We love the breakfast at Kona café so we eat there for breakfast. The breakfast at Kona is delicious.

Dinner 100%! We've had nothing but bland or downright poor experiences with the Breakfast there, while the dinner service has always been outstanding!

Definitely dinner! I would eat dinner there every night if my family would let me!!

Dare I say I was a little disappointed by Ohana? I liked the breakfast - the food was perfectly fine, the characters were cute (esp. Lilo - she was really fun). I know lots of people love the food at dinner. I thought it was fine, and we enjoyed the experience, but it wasn't amazing. We also found the kid antics (coconut races etc) a little disruptive. I was a little surprised by my own reaction - I knew they did stuff for the kids, and my kids enjoyed participating, I just kind of wanted a relaxed dinner together and found the activities broke up our meal a bit. So based on price vs. enjoyment, we liked breakfast more, I think.

You can ask for the POG juice at dinner!

The dinner food is about 1,000 times better than the breakfast food.

My kids love stitch and I love pluto... we definitely go for the breakfast. And, in our opinion, the breakfast food is good - kids love the stitch and mickey waffles, the special juice is really good, the bread is a favorite... and plenty of eggs, sausage, bacon to go around. It doesn't feel rushed at all, and is tradition for how we end our vacation. That said, if I ever go to Disney with just grown ups, I look forward to trying dinner!

There is tremendous variability in opinion on dinner at Ohana. We absolutely HATED it -- odd that meat can be greasy and dry at the same time. Looooong meal, poor service, you name it. Others love it.

All that said, we've done breakfast there a couple of times and are doing it again in Nov. Nothing fancy, but tasty -- that's what we like in a breakfast.

 

[allsaintsatx]

Both.

We love going to dinner there on our first night. We make late ressies (8pm) so that we can catch the MK fireworks show from the restaurant. Love that they turn off the lights and pipe in the audio! Headed there in two weeks from yesterday!! Can anyone confirm that they still have the activities for kids during dinner?

Ohana's dinner is one of our absolute favorite meals at Disney!
