I would have to agree with the poster who said that we don't go to WDW expecting gourmet meals - it is, after all, a bunch of theme parks.
That said - in general the restaurants at Disney Studios have no redeeming qualities at all. We always struggle if we are at that park at meal times. The Brown Derby is good, but way too expensive (the Cobb salad is tasty but is like mush - I think they must put it in a blender before they serve it). We usually end up at Toy Story Pizza Planet simply because it is the least disgusting option.
I used to hate Biergarten in the Germany pavilion at Epcot. The first time we ate there I burped vinegar for the next two days. But we went there last time because my dad loves German food. It wasn't as vinegary this time.
I liked Le Cellier but we had HORRIBLE service. The restaurant wasn't even half full and it literally took my husband and I almost two and half hours to finish our meal. We waited over 30 minutes for the waiter to bring our cokes to us. Everyone in the restaurant was annoyed - there were waiters and waitresses everywhere but they were all just standing around taking to each other. I was willing to give it another shot but my husband was so mad that he refuses to ever return.
I don't think the food at San Angel Grill is anything like actual Mexican food but my husband likes it (he's not a very adventurous eater) and the atmosphere is nice so I agree to go there all the time. If you want to eat in Morocco I would go to the counter service Tangeriene Cafe instead of Marrakesh. The food at Marrakesh was just OK but was ridiculously expensive. The food at Tangeriene Cafe is really good and a pretty good deal as far as counter service goes.

Seriously, though, I have to agree with the PPs who have said you can't rely on others' opinions. Obviously, not everyone is going to have the same tastes. But, you can get ideas of which places have had bad service, cold meals, etc., although those things also could be flukes. A lot of the restaurants I'm reading about people dislike, we really enjoy!
So, I guess what I'm trying to say is that I think its great to get others' opinions so at least you have a good idea of what to expect, but if there is somewhere you would like to eat, try it for yourself.
), it almost sounds like fluke when you do get a good meal!
