Restaurants without any Negative Reviews

[bicker]

In a recent thread, I wrote:

I'm trying to think of a restaurant that hasn't had negative reviews.

So here's my question/challenge. Are there any WDW (on-site) table-service restaurants for which there haven't been any negative reviews posted, in this forum, the Dining Reviews forum, the Dining Plan forum, or the Trip Reviews forum, from May 1, 2006 until October 31, 2006. (The implication of the bad review must be that the meal was recent, rather than relaying a bad experience that occurred prior to this period.) There are lots of threads to discuss whether restaurants are good or bad, so I'm just wondering in this thread whether any have escaped bad reviews, entirely, over a six month period. Any restaurant that comes out clean is therefore likely to be a safe choice for a great meal -- either that or it is so unpopular that no one writes anything about it, good or bad.

If someone posts a candidate, please post links to any bad reviews of that restaurant that you know about. After October 30, I'll try to summarize the feedback and see if any restaurants come out clean. In the meantime, I'll post a list, right here in this message, for each restaurant suggested, providing a link to a recent bad review that disqualifies it.

Restaurants for which I cannot find a bad review (yet) during the May to October 2006 period (please point one out if you know of one):

• blueZoo

How about Marrakesh? I didn't search the main restaurant board for reviews, but I didn't find any negative reviews on the review board.

 

[Peter Pirate 2]

V&A's is the only restarurant that has a shot and even they have undoubtedly had someone disatisfied.

 

[dixiedizfan]

The only possibility that comes to mind might be Kona Cafe. Every review I've read about it, the people have raved about the food. If there has been a negative post about Kona, then I missed it, so they must be few and far between.

 

[DVC Grammy]

I don't think such a place exists on this earth, much less at WDW!
Someone, sometime, will have a complaint re: wait times, wait staff, noise, seating location, food quality, temperature of food, horrid dining neighbors that "someone should've ousted from the restaurant", and on and on and on.............................
Good luck in getting a winner to your challenge ; I'll make an ADR there immediately !

 

[tndisneyfan]

I have been reading this board for about 1.5 years. I can't recall a single negative reivew for V&A. I have read negatives fore every other restaurant at WDW.

Kona was my 1st thought, too.

 

[Uncleromulus]

tndisneyfan: There have been a couple of bad V&A reviews, but I can't recall how far back they were.

I think a winner for Bicker's challange will probably be the place that so few go to that a bad review hasn't happened--yet. A place like Shutters, for instance.
I'd nominate the Sand Trap, except it's a lunch only spot and I think Bicker has his eye on dinner places.

bicker,
I have often wondered myself if such a place existed. This should be a most interesting project. Thank you for taking it on.

Answering a similar, but easier to answer question I took at look at the reviews over at www.allearsnet.com . Each reviewer gives a recommended yes/no answer, so it's easy to see which TS get 100% recommended ratings. The list is surprisinginly long. I just checked resorts and parks (not DTD) and found:

Bistro de Paris
LTT
Beaches and Cream
ESNP Club
Flying Fish
GF Cafe
V & A's
Turf Club (but only 2 reviews so far)
Yachtman Steakhouse
Tempura Kiku

For what it's worth, Marrahesh got hammered, with only 76% giving a positive recommnedation. Kona was close to 100% recommended, but had a negative or two.

How about Marrakesh? I didn't search the main restaurant board for reviews, but I didn't find any negative reviews on the review board.

There are negative reviews for Marrakesh. I wrote one. It was before the review board came into being.

 

[orljustin]

I've read plenty of reviews of bad service at Kona.

This is pretty silly. You can find people who like/dislike every place, either for service, price, food, etc.

 

[sotoalf]

Citricos gets consistently excellent reviews.

 

[Brian Noble]

Just guessing here, but I think that's exactly his point.

 

[TigerKat]

Great project, bicker!! It will be interesting to see the outcome. My only guess, which I don't recall seeing a bad review, other than V&A, would be Flying Fish.

 

[kaytieeldr]

Turf Club?

 

[CastleLight]

Citricos

 

[Armandocme]

Downtown Disney:
Bongos Cuban Cafe
House of Blues
Portobello Yacht Club

Dolphin:
Dolphin Fountain
Fresh Mediterranean Market
Shula's Steak House
Todd English's bluezoo

Swan:
Gulliver's Grill
Kimonos
Palio

What a great idea. Thanks for putting this info. together.

How about Marrakesh? I didn't search the main restaurant board for reviews, but I didn't find any negative reviews on the review board.

I also cannot find any bad reviews of Marrakesh in the specified time period. Does anyone think my six month window is too narrow? Should I expand it to include then entire year of 2006? (Seems like kind-of a cheap shot, since it would just affect Marrakesh, so far, and I'm not even sure if there was a bad review of Marrakesh for a visit during 2006 posted.)
