Thoughts on Hollywood & Vine Playhouse Disney lunch?

Sorry - I tried using the search feature, but it just won't work for me

So, if you have eaten lunch at H&V for the Playhouse Disney meal, I'd love to hear your thoughts. Did you think it was worth it? Did your kids enjoy it and what ages were they?

DD will be 8, so she is definitely past the Playhouse Disney stage, but I know DS4 still likes it.

I was wondering the same thing. We made reservations to go cause DD(2) LOVES the little Einsteins... but havent heard anything about the food...

We loved it! My girls were 5 and just turned 7 for our March 2007 trip and we had lunch at H&V. The character interaction was wonderful. The characters toured the room several times so we got plenty of time with them. There were also cast members who periodically encouraged the kids to get up and dance or parade through the restaurant. The buffet had many tasty items and there was a separate "kids food" section (although my kids at from both sections). I don't recall exactly what I ate but I know I had salmon that was tasty. The dessert selection was awesome! If your kids like Little Einsteins or Jojo, I think they'll enjoy it. My kids liked it better than the Norway Princess breakfast.

We did lunch there in 2006 and thought it was okay...nothing great....nothing too bad. We decided to do it again though this last trip in Dec 2007 as it was fun there. The two older boys loved it the year before and we knew the baby would love it this trip too so hence the desire to go again....honestly though it was the one meal i was least looking forward to. However, I was surprised. The food was much better! I liked the meatballs and salad the best...but it was all good. I found myself singing along (when i wasn't chewing) and dancing in my seat.

we have done it 2 times and doing it again , it is my fave dining with characters. my girls are 7 and 3 and have done it for the past two visits,i think i love it soo much because of the music and everything going on, it is not my 7 year olds fave she likes chef mickeys better. i am praying my 3 year old gets up there this time and dances she has not in the past. the food is great , it is a very good afternoon break for lunch , i will keep going back no matter how old they are!

I THINK it might have been your other post that i replied to. We had lunch there last week- service was terrific, character interaction was terrific but it was the worst food we experiemce the entire time. I don't ever expect it to be terrific food- just decent but this was just gross last time.
