POLL: Restaurants Still Not Open

[Anchored]

1900 Park Fare! I need to see Prince Charming and get my strawberry soup fix

 

[Pyxie]

I really want 1900 Park Fare back! I'm a huge Alice fan and my daughter loves their breakfast pizza (which, to be fair, I don't think is anything special but if my extremely picky eater likes it then that's saying something).

Would also love to try their dinner as I hear the step sisters are super fun.

I'm also waiting on 1900 PF. I noticed that Akershus won't have breakfast and Garden Grill still doesn't have breakfast back either. I won't go to Cinderella's Royal Table until all the princesses are back. If I'm going to pay that much money to eat in the castle, it needs to be worth it even if my kids are mostly over princesses.

Sorry, I’ll put an “other” category. As you can tell, I’m not a typical poll poster!

No judgement here! I’m sure there are other others that I’m not thinking of too!

I want Tutto Gusto in the Italy pavilion to open back up as a wine and small plates bar... instead of overflow seating for Tutto Italia!

 

[The Jackal]

Kona Cafe is still closed for refurbishment and opening soon. Garden Grill in Epcot open, but not for breakfast.

Isn't Marrakesh closed permanently

I think so, isn't it the Blue Cross FL lounge now? Don't think it's coming back.

With Monsieur Paul and Akershus coming back it had me thinking, what TS options are still not open after all this time?
(that we know aren't permanently closed such as ESPN Club.)

I can think of only 3. (If I missed one, oops! LMK and I'll add it to the poll)
EDITED: *** ADDED ONE ***

1900 Park Fare
Restaurant Marrakesh (or another moroccan restaurant in its place)
Takumi-Tei
Garden View Tea Room

Are you anxiously awaiting any of them? None of them?

Me, Takumi-Tei. Booked it for spring break 2020 and we know what happened there. Have been patiently awaiting its return.

I'm going to guess much of the reasons have to do with the staffing issues and some other things disney has in the works. Perhaps they have some planned remodeling or re-theming some of these locations or they have other plans entirely with these. These were all great with the exception of 1900 park fare. My kids loved the all you can eat aspect of it but the food was pretty blah. Not really holding my breath on any of these locations.

Other = Garden Grill breakfast

 

[Christinecinti]

Garden Grill bkfst. We love it!

 

[Moliphino]

Not TS, but I want Tangierine Cafe back as a full QS restaurant not a festival booth. The shawarma was the best.

 

[Mango7100]

The Bon Voyage character breakfast at Trattorio—really want this one back!

 

[Stormalong Smiths]

Good news! It was announced earlier this week that Takumi-Tei will be reopening November 23.

Oh a date! I heard the rumor but nothing official. Yahoo!!

I thought it was the insurance place only through Food and Wine. I guess if it's still there for the Holiday festival we'll know it's more permanent.

Yes, you're right BCBS only sponsors through the event but its owners filed for bankruptcy so until Disney decides to put something there, that restaurant is a goner. It's sad since it was very unique dining.

waiting for 1900 Park Fare to reopen; we would always eat our first morning's brekkie there, our last night's dinner there, and other breakfast/s and dinner/s there as well during each trip.

It’s not back to a lounge yet??? Crud… they have the menu showing up on the Disney site so I thought it was finally back!

In the last couple of months they changed it so now you can walk in and get a drink at the bar and leave- but you cannot sit at a table unless ordering food. And the food menu is the Tutto Italia menu- not the antipasti menu like they had before (charcuterie boards etc).

So, basically go to the hostess stand and ask to sit in the cellar. Order an appetizer or two. That's what we did our last two trips. But it's not like before where Tutto Gusto had its own entry and you were seated in the bar area and could stay at the bar and have drinks there etc.

Thanks for that update. That was our favorite “secret” lounge. Boo…

My family votes for breakfast back at Be Our Guest... the menu as is is too expensive and not to their tastes for lunch and dinner.
