Ohana, Sci Fi, or Prime Time

[monkeybug]

Food and location aside, which would you pick for atmosphere and fun for a 3yr old and 6yr old? My kids will eat anything!
We already have ADR's for WCC, The Wave, Tepan Edo, Narcosse's, CRT and CM.
I have an ADR for Ohana on our last night, but was thinking about changing it.

I can't speak for the other two, but I will say that we LOOOOVE Ohana! We go back every time.

Thanks for responding! We are going on our last night, and I want to end on a good note! The coconut races and stuff sound fun for the kids, plus we are staying at the Poly, so maybe I should just stick with what I got!

 

[Cinderella94]

Staying at the Poly makes it even better! We've done breakfast and dinner there, and both are awesome. We just had dinner there this past January. The view is awesome, and depending on the time of your ADR, you can see Wishes and they have the music playing in the restaurant. It's an awesome experience!

 

[angiejg]

I would stick with it. Great way to end your trip. They have fun things for the kids and the atmosphere is great!

 

[monkeybug]

Whew! I am feeling much better about going there now! Thanks!
It's hard when you are a newbie and just going off menus and reviews!

Definitely don't change your ADR.

And if your kids don't like something you can ask for mac and cheese or something similar and they will do it for you! Our waiter was fantastic! (You should try the Lapu Lapu in the pineapple, but it's dangerous!!) I really think you'll love it there! Don't change!

Oh yeah! I think I read that Ohana is one of the only places that will bring your kid a grilled cheese.

So you want to know something really lame??? That dang Lapu Lapu is one of the things I am most excited about (I saw pictures). I have wanted a drink in a coconut or pineapple since I was a kid (I probably saw it on Fantasy Island or The Love Boat) and I am so happy I finally get one! Yay! I have this fantasy of being on a hammock on the beach with my giant pineapple drink and watching the fireworks...ahhh is the end of April yet????

Thankfully my kids are both adventurous eaters, so that shouldn't be an issue, but it is good to know in case one of them is having an off day (they are kids after all...)

I hear ya! That was me too! I made my husband take lots of pictures with me and my pretty drink! LOL!

Sci Fi.... to sit in cars in the dark and watch old cartoons and movie clips..my nieces would get a huge kick out of it

 

[TruBlu]

I guess I'm going to go against the grain here.....
My family didn't like 'Ohana. The boys thought the entertainment was boring. They couldn't wait to get out of there.

On the other hand....
They LOVE Sci-Fi for lunch. We went in '07, and they loved it so much we cancelled Marrakesh to go again later in the week. Last year we only went once during our stay. Again....they LOVED it and wanted to go more than once. When I asked them about where they wanted to eat this year they only had 2 requests..... Crystal Palace with Pooh and Sci-Fi.

But, most people love 'Ohana. I think we are in the minority, but we'll never go back.

Hands down, it's O'hana for our family of 5. We love the atmosphere, the food, the fun for kids, etc.

 

[angiejg]

We love Sci Fi too, but for 6 and 3 yr olds and on a last night, Ohana has a special feel to us. We are going back to Sci Fi this next trip too, but my kids are 11 and 6 now. And if you are already staying at the Poly, then it's a relaxing way to end your trip. If you get a chance to eat at Disney Studios though, I'd pick Sci Fi as a top choice for atmosphere too!

 

[Tricia1972]

For your age group I'd definitely choose Prime Time.

 

[srwarden1928]

We are looking forward to trying Ohana this summer.
50s Prime Time is a must do each trip.
I have never eaten at Sci Fi. I have heard that the atmosphere is fun, but the food is just burgers, etc. At a TS?? If I want a burger, I will pay less money and eat at a CS place.

 

[Disneymom2266]

definitely Ohana! It is the best! And they have a Hawaiian singer that does games and etc. with the kids. If you sit by the window, you can see Wishes! Enjoy!!

 

[dkal95]

Definitely Ohana. It is our favorite place to eat, by far. Food is great and the kids have a good time as well!
Oh, how I'd LOVE to end our trip with dinner there... but sadly they're all booked.

Never been to 50's... I have ADR's for this trip... but from what I gather, it's not as "nice" as Ohana... better for something like lunch.

I've been to Sci Fi and I really enjoyed it, but probably not for normal reasons. LOL I liked that it was dark and cool, it was a great place to go for lunch to cool off and let the baby take a nap. LOL
I'm not really into Sci Fi shows and movies... and the kids weren't much on it either. But over all, we enjoyed it... the cars that you sit in are really cool.
