Hi-- I am trying to convince my DH to at at Fulton's for lunch when we arrive-- OOP.

Do you have opinions on Fultons? Is the children's menu for lunch and dinner the same?

thanks!

I don't know about the children's menu....But, my parents ate there on our last trip for lunch and really enjoyed it! It was $$$ but they said it was one of the best lunches they have had at Disney.
 
We ate at Fultons twice on our trip and found that lunch is a better deal than dinner and since it wasn't as busy, the service was much better at lunch as well.

My son wants to go back for lunch on his birthday as we're spending most of the day at DTD in Disneyquest.

It is a bit pricey but I think it's well worth it.
 
we enjoy going for apps and drinks at the bar; their oysters and steamers are very good, as is the fried calamari, very different than usual!
They make a MEAN mai tai, and a very good bloody mary!
 

Not sure about the children's menu, but here was our experience ( 4 adult women )

We did lunch one afternoon at Fulton's and the food was very good. Our choices ranged from salads to sandwiches and steaks. Everyone enjoyed it very much.

Now the service on the other hand was a whole different experience. Our service was either not on her game that day or just didn't care.

As in many resturants nowadays, if you want water you have to order it, which we totally agree with. Why waste it just so it looks pretty on the table. Our problem was 2 of the girls order water and it never came. We reminded her when we order the appetizer. Appetizer came, still no water. She also did not bring plates with the appetizer so we asked one of the other waiters passing by to bring us some. He did. He also brought us the water.

About 20 minutes has gone by and no one has taken our meal order or check back to see if we were ready to order yet. Soooo, called over same waiter that brought us the water and asked him to send her over to take our order.

She came back and took our order. One of the girls order sour cream for her baked potato. The food came in a timely manner, but sans sour cream. We reminded her of the extra and she commented that she would have to go all the way back to the kitchen to get it :sad2:

We decided to order wine, which she was not familiar with so she sent over the waiter that had been helping us on and off.

Soooo, at the end of the meal we tipped her low enough not to be insulting, but to get the point across and then tipped the waiter who had assisted us so much.
 
This is one of our all time favorites. It is the first restaurant at Disney my DH ever took me to. We have not been back since 2004 when we took our oldest son for his high school graduation, but we are going in just two weeks for our special 25th wedding anniversary dinner with my BFF and her DH and we are paying out of pocket for it. As previously stated, it is $$$$, but we find it well worth it. The Clam Chowder Soup is excellent and I can taste the crab legs now....:worship:
 
We ate there in 2003 and loved it. My husband ordered crab legs. They were huge and the crab just fell out when you shook them - no digging involved! The creme brule was some of the best I have had (and I order it everywhere!).
 
It's good but really and I mean REALLY expensive. If your kids are finicky eaters, rethink.
 
Like others have stated, I don't know much about the kids menus. I can tell you we have had great food every time we have been. The servers always seem to go above and beyond for us... not so good on the wallet when they do those things :eek:
We always sit in the bar area so I cannot comment on the restaurant area itself.
It can be very pricey, but we have a premium AP so there is a 20% discount excluding alcohol.
Give it a shot, you will enjoy it :cool1:

just me
