We've never eaten at O'hana. Thinking about trying it on our next trip. We've eaten at Kona Café and Captain Cook's at Poly but missed O'hana.

Do you prefer breakfast or dinner?
 
I've only done breakfast but we love it. It's on our must list. Besides the characters and the cute parade, we like that the food was served to us. And their potatoes are very yummy!

We prefer breakfast solely because we feel that breakfast food done family style is less offensive taste-wise than dinner family style. :rolleyes1
 
Dinner, not crazy about their Breakfast.... Dinner is very good
 

I've only done breakfast and personally, I wasn't a fan. The characters are fun, but the food is rather boring IMO and more in line with your average quick service breakfast. Eggs, sausage, bacon, potatoes, fruit, waffles and a dry flavorless fruit bread. It didn't help that the day we went everything was overcooked. But even then I like more variety if I'm going to spend the money on a buffet/family style meal. The juice was delicious, but you can get that at Kona with much better food.
 
I have never done dinner at 'Ohana. I have an ADR for our trip this fall. Breakfast is good. As others have mentioned, it is a family style character breakfast. The characters bring along a hefty price tag... which makes the value IMO less than a buffet with tons of different options. While the food they do offer is fine, I agree with others that it is a very basic breakfast offering. I would still return, though. I'm looking forward to trying dinner!
 
I haven't eaten there for dinner yet (but I have a ressie for June 30!), they seem like two completely different experiences. Breakfast is a character meal with the same breakfast food they serve everywhere, and dinner is a Polynesian family-style meal. So I would have no issues eating both on the same trip!
 
Dinner is a better experience, IMHO. The food is unique and good, there is live entertainment, coconut races, the limbo, etc. Breakfast is just another character meal with overly salted food.
 
We are doing both!! We did both last time, and are doing it again. They are both different experiences!! I probably prefer the food at dinner, but breakfast was perfectly fine.
 
Done both, prefer dinner. If you want a fun character experience, breakfast is enjoyable, but the dinner food is much, much better IMO.
 
We did our first character breakfast here on our first trip last year. The characters were really cute, the juice was good, and the view was fantastic.

The food however, not so great. This was my first exposure to Disney breakfast food, & perhaps my expectations were too high. We ate at the Kona Cafe the next morning, and I can verify that the eggs and the bacon served are exactly the same.

It was a pleasant experience overall, but the food is really expensive for what you're getting. Definitely paying more for the atmosphere and the characters more than anything else. If I went back to Ohana I would try the dinner instead. I think this would be a great one to come to with children because the restaurant is not that large, and the characters were great.
 
There are no characters at dinner. I would never consider breakfast because I wouldn't pay that much for eggs and breakfast is my least fav meal of the day.

The dinner was pretty good with lots of
Choices.
 
Ohana for dinner is a great experience. The food, the entertainment, the atmosphere, the drinks--all great.

OTOH we did not like the breakfast food there at all. The characters were cute, but the dinner was the whole package.

We've done both. Once for breakfast and twice for dinner. Breakfast was really really expensive. All so my daughter could see Stitch. I don't think her dad ever realized how much it was. Thankfully he was not at the table when the bill came.:rotfl:Our first time for dinner we loved it. The second time not so much. The salad, lo mein noodles, pot stickers, and wings are great. We could have happy with just those. The meats are okay. My daughter really liked the shrimp but after awhile they all start to taste the same. They are all cooked with the same sauce. Dinner has one thing that can't be beat.....the infamous bread pudding. OMG....so good.
