Restaurant Reviews

[tardin1964]

Hey Guys, miss hearing the restaurant reviews on the show. I hope Kevin has plans for doing some in the near future.

I really really really want them to review V & A, but I understand why they don't

It would be fun if they did a comparison of two places, too....like 50s Prime Time vs Sci Fi or something to that affect

I know that Kevin has been doing a lot of traveling lately so they probably just haven't had time to hit a WDW restaurant for review. With PCC 5.0 coming up very quickly I'm thinking that the next dining review is a ways off.

We also love these reviews. I usually find that 95% of the time I'm in agreement with their opinions on restaurants. Strangely enough though the reviews I enjoy the most are the ones of the bad restaurants.

I wish there was a "like" button. Just the other day I was thinking how much I missed Kevin's restaurant reviews. Maybe when the new Italian restaurant opens at the Boardwalk...

I would definitely like to see more restaurant reviews.

I, for one, would love more restaurant reviews. I point to the recent Dine with An Animal Expert review. Kevin said it was something that reignited his love for Disney.

If I may request a review I'd love to hear a new review of 50s prime time.

Or if Kevin is willing to do an off property review. Rusty Spoon would be amazing.

This made me laugh out loud.

Thanks Mick.

Finally...a good sport with a sense of humor!

The truth can be funny too huh?

Spoiler alert for any future dining review by Kevin or John: they hate it.

If they were to say Sci Fi diner sucks, I would agree though. For a place that has excellent ambience and theming, the food is very bla. And this is coming from someone who LOVES the pizza at Toy Story Pizza Planet!

50s Prime Time Cafe is also good.

I forget if they every reviewed those 2 though.

And this is coming from someone who LOVES the pizza at Toy Story Pizza Planet!

Then you'd love any of the pizzas in the frozen food aisle of Publix.

I'm not even saying it's bad pizza, but not even a chef at Burger King would pick this pizza over Via Napoli.

I was just saying how happy I was that Kevin was NOT doing any restaurant reviews. His reviews are downright obnoxious.

I like Kevin's feisty reviews of just about anything - restaurants, parking garages, Fast Pass+, etc. This is exactly what makes the show interesting. Imagine a show without conflict and you'll be imagining a show without any viewers.

Peace and love are great virtues on paper, but make for lousy entertainment. All the great shows have these types of characters. Like Newman or Kramer on Seinfeld.

I would love to hear another of Kevin's restaurant reviews.

I would love to hear his thoughts about the Bayliner Diner when the Universal podcast returns. Since he loves that hotel (I do too.) I hope to hear a review on that.

Because quite frankly his review of the food courts at Disney were spot on. I have a relative whose tastes run similiar to Kevin. She agrees with him on all his reviews so it's a good pointer to me if he reviews something, I know what she will think.

I love the entire show but I have to say that Kevin's restaurant reviews are a special favorite.

If time/interest allows, it would be a delight to hear some new reviews. Or even re-reviews of places.

 

[Cyrano]

I am another who misses the reviews.

But I understand Jeff's point that Kevin and John have been very busy of late.

It must be nice that they can go out for meals and not think about having to record everything as part of their job.

Hopefully in 2015 we can look forward to some interesting reviews

I don't think they are actually saying they completely hate all the restaurants. I think they are pretty much saying that the food is not worth what you are paying for it. I like 50's Primetime just fine. I think Tony's Townsquare is fine...but if it were the "real world" and I were paying those kinds of prices for that quality of food, I'd be angry. I think they are good looking beyond the "pixie dust" and seeing the food for what it is...not just "this is good for what you get in the parks."

Agree that I LOVE dining reviews, and LOVE Kevin's sense of humor. Always look forward to Wednesdays, when I watch the podcasts on my lunch hour at work, to "help me make it through the day/week", and it's more like hanging out with a bunch of friends who are just happening to be talking about Disney than watching a podcast of people I've never met. Always puts a smile on my face!!

TOTALLY agree. When my husband walks in the room and I'm watching, I tell him, "I'm hanging out with my friends." Doesn't matter that we've never met. These people GET me.

I've only been a podcaster listener for about a year now. Over the past month or so, I have been going back and listening to the restaurant reviews. I, too, would love to have some more recent reviews. I really enjoyed the best breakfasts show where they compared the five best "breakfasts" as voted on by listeners....some other shows like that would also be welcome. Perhaps best counter services or the best dinners.

Another vote for more restaurant reviews! I love Kevin's wit and insights.
