Sunshine Seasons

[Nancy O]

It has been 10 years since I have eaten here but I was looking at the menu on the website. It seems that there were more options back then. Do they add more things daily to the menu, am I just not remembering correctly or have then scaled down the menu? (It's probably all of these, lol)

We now have the option to do advance ordering via our magical cell phones. If they do add other things on the menu will those things show up on the mobile ordering?

How much of a pain is it not to order in advance? Sometimes I want to see the food before I place my order but we have limited Epcot time so any time saved is a bonus.

We ate there right at lunchtime Easter week and didn’t have to wait long to get our food. We just do grab and go, but the the lines weren’t long for the food or the registers. The tough part is finding a table . . .

I find that the Disney online menus are often not fully representative of the food at the cafeteria type places like Sunshine Seasons, but the mobile ordering has to be spot on.

However, the grab and go items, like salads, yogurt, cereal, sandwiches, and cheese plates, may not be offered on mobile ordering.

1) Yes, there were more options in the past. *
2) As with other meals at WDW, menu items have been cut back due to DDP.
3) They went more toward the package meal instead of all the previous massive amounts of ala carte menu selections.
4) BUT, there are still enough choices to satisfy *almost* any appetite.
5) In fact, for Fast Food, Sunshine Seasons is very hard to beat.

* As you, I can remember when going to Sunshine was like going to a food bazaar, with lots and lots of choices.

I will say be careful of how late you go to SS. We went one evening around 7:00 p.m. or so expecting to find a full menu. I don't know if they were just out of stuff or if they were already putting things away for the evening or what, but we only had 4 or 5 hot meals total to choose from. The grab n go case wasn't much better. I was sadly disappointed.

Weird. We ate there one year at park closing and had the full menu to choose from. It had to have been around 8:30 PM when we ordered since we were walking out of the Land during Illuminations.

I'm looking forward to visiting here for the 1st time next week. Anybody have any food recommendations?

I tried to mobile order there last week but it was not available.

I think it was just an off night, but we were the only ones eating at that time. It was during F&W, so maybe they just plan for everyone to be in WS.

Thus, the probable reason . . . no demand inside.

If you go early, their breakfast panini is one of the best prefasts on the property!

I was just going to recommend this, we make a trip to SS every trip for the breakfast panini at least once!

I make at least one visit every trip for the salmon. Best on property, including Artist point!

It seems weird that you would do mobile ordering there with the way the different server windows are and looking and picking what you want. Maybe we eat at off times, but that is one place I've never had to wait much to get food, plus all the cases have the extra add ons.

The menu has gotten smaller. We haven't eaten there in years, with so many choices at WS we prefer to go there. SS used to be our breakfast go to but they have cut down on that too.

1) The new chef at Artist Point has changed the salmon.
. . . when I asked the waiter about the salmon, he had to go back to the kitchen for the chef's answer
. . . when the food arrived, it was not even as the waiter described it
. . . the waiter apologized and took the salmon back to the kitchen
. . . the next try was just as bad
. . . I, sadly, settled for the Buckwheat Ravioli
2) After hearing the same types of complaints from others (and for other AP dishes), Artist Point is no longer on my personal preferred list
