What don't you like to eat....

[spacemermaid]

Unless the menu at the French Market changes (I used to LOVE eating there), I won't be back. It was some of the worst food I've ever eaten, for around the same price as eating at Cafe' Orleans. The jambalaya was awful...it was like Uncle Ben's rice, not cooked all the way, topped with a ketchup-y sauce, a bunch of lukewarm vegetables, and a few tiny morsels of meat. And served with some of the worst (cold, dry) cornbread ever. So gross. I sure wish they'd serve better food there (I LOVE Cajun/Creole/New Orleans style food...NOS is my favorite place to eat in all of DLR...), because it's such a nice facility. The serving area is very well themed, and the dining area, with the live music, shade from the tall trees, and all that wrought iron really immerses one in the whole French Quarter theme. Besides a yucky meal at Ranch del Zocalo a few years ago when they had a different menu, the French Market (with its current menu) is really the only place I've eaten in either of the Parks that I didn't enjoy.

As for can't-miss places to eat...Cafe' Orleans & Carnation Cafe', for sure. Not to miss at Cafe' Orleans: gumbo (or the gumbo crepe), pommes frittes, and Mickey beignets. Not to miss at Carnation Cafe': loaded baked potato soup; seasonal pot pie (the turkey/cranberry potpie they have for the holidays is sooooooo good!)

Ok, some more blasphemy here, but I can't for the life of me figure out what everyone loves about churros.

We don't have them here where I live and I had heard everyone on the Dis raving about them all the time so I figured it was a must have treat. Well we bought one and after one bite I was done . I thought the kids might like it though, so I gave it to them to eat - well they had one bite each also and then refused to eat any more. So between the 3 of us we didn't even get halfway through before we had to bin it.

Sorry churro lovers for any offence caused

We aren't big fans of Village Haus at all, the food was just not good enough for the price. It's something you might find at 6 Flags to be honest. We do like the burgers at Hungry Bear but honestly if we want burgers we go to Taste Pilots Grill in DCA, much better then HB, we get the Wild Bleu Yonder burger and add lots of yummy condiments.
We really like the food at CO, I had the ratatouille once and thought it was delish! The Pomme Frites are always good there and the beignets are delish!!!! We love CC, everything there has been good for us, we enjoyed the chicken dinner at PI (DBF and I get 1 dinner and 1 side salad and share both), we like the pizza and salads at PP, we love the BBQ at Big Thunder BBQ and we enjoy the dogs at Awards Weiners as well. In DTD we avoid Tortilla Joe's (DBF and I got sick after eating there, the girls ate elsewhere and did not get sick) but we very much enjoy the RFC & Jazz Kitchen (and JK Express).

I agree that Pizza Oh Mow Mow was gross, but they did have the chicken BBQ pizza and that was a very good pizza!

 

[jemilah]

tortilla joes take out was the worst! I heard the restaurant was better. we need Big portions I have 2 huge football player sons , no sharing plates for us. I love CO but they have nothing DS11 will eat.

 

[brergnat]

Those Tigger Tails are insanely disgusting...

For the biggest rip-off and bad food, I'd say it's the Naples Pizza counter service place in DTD.

Our absolute favorite is the Story Teller's Cafe.

 

[amamax2]

We absolutely hated the pizza slices at Napolini in DtD, but I have read good things about the pizza served inside Naples, so I can't figure out if these pizzas are different or the same.

Oh my gosh - we feel the same!!! In fact, if I even mention to my kids getting pizza in DTD, they immediately say, not that horrible stuff! and we haven't eaten there for at least four years! It is just seared into their brains, lol.

We feel that most of the food we have tried at DL/DCA, is just Ok, but did like the potatoes at Troubador Tavern on our last trip. The broccoli was cooked perfectly and my DH enjoyed the chicken.

I know I am going to take heat for this, but the worst meal we have ever had was at Blue Bayou. Not one of us enjoyed the food and the service was terrible. Ok, flame suit on!!!

I'm with ya! We used to eat there every trip but after two bad experiences with both food and service, in a row, we haven't eaten there in 3 years. Plus it is way overpriced. The same sandwich at Cafe Orleans is like $7 cheaper than BB!

I don't think you'll get flamed for that. BB gets very mixed reviews on the DIS.

 

[marcemc]

I feel the same way about the universally beloved corn dogs. Blasphemy, I know.

Add me to that list. Worst food Disneyland serves.

No flames from me, everyone has their own opinion. We've eaten at BB quite a bit and we have had a few negative experiences as well, not so much that we won't go back but we've had an issue or two. Altho we've almost always enjoyed our food (DD14 didn't like the ribs so we traded, I had the chicken and she loved that) we've had service issues a time or two.

yes but at CO you don't get sides. But there are many times that we go there, DBF gets the MC and I get the soup/salad combo and we share, even tho we don't tell them we are sharing. We also really love the Pomme Frites.

True! I didn't really think of that! But we always share everything at CO anyway so for is it's cheaper. I was just really disappointed in the service at BB and the last time I had the Monte Cristo amd it made me sick.

I will never eat at Zocalo or its equivalent in DCA ever again. I first had Zocalo, and the chicken was practically still alive. I decided to give it another chance at DCA, but again was not impressed.

I just stick to Plaza Inn...love that place! It always fills me up and I feel like I got my money's worth! I also like the pasta at Pizza Port (not the pizza, though, blegh).

The corn dogs are one of my favorites, considering that the first time I tried one a few months ago, I thought it was disgusting. It was from Stagedoor, because the red wagon on Main St. was down for refurb, and it was half cooked with the batter still dripping in areas. I'm not sure why I didn't go ask for a new one, but once again, gave it a chance when the wagon opened back up, and haven't had a complaint about them since. I guess it's just preferences.

I also love the clam chowder in Dland, but hate it in DCA...I heard rumors that the DCA recipe is what used to be in Dland, but if it is, I'm happier that it's in DCA now. It made me sick to my stomach. As a matter of fact, Goofy's Kitchen has made me sick almost immediately 2 out of the 3 times I've gone, 1 of which was this morning for one last fling with one of my best friends, who is moving to Texas tomorrow. Tear. Anyway, about 30-40 minutes into my meal, off to the bathroom I went. I'm pretty sure it's only happened at breakfast, though, because the last 2 times we were there for breakfast, and I don't recall getting sick the first time, when it was dinner...interesting...

The 3 worst (for me), then my 3 favorites...

Worst...
1. Pizza Port
2. Turkey legs (creeps me out when I see people walking around gnawing on these, yuck)
3.Village Haus, yeah, food is not good, cold and the lines were WAY to long for sub-par food.

Favorite...
1.Cafe Orleans
2. Carnation Cafe
3. Ralph Brennans Jazz Kitchen

I have nothing but good things to say about all three of these restaurants, in fact I already have my PS arrangements for when we are there next month!
cant wait!

 

[dizneedoll]

What I'm about to say may get me kicked off the disboards but...I don't like Dole Whips. I'm not crazy about pineapple and I tried one once and it tasted like bad kids medicine.

I agree with what has been said about Pizza Oom Mow Mow, thank goodness it's gone. Terrible pizza. I hope that whatever replaces it will have better food. I don't like the soup in bread bowls either. Oh and I had the fried cheese on a stick once and it made me sick. I'm usually not opposed to fried anything but this was just gross.

 

[Squirrel!!!]

I have to agree that I find Tigger Tails inedible, but my DD loves them.

Cafe O's Jambaylaya, just NOT good.

Mostly I eat in DL because I am hungry, not because I am looking for fine food. SO, I am not expecting much. Give me a Mickey pretzel and a water, and I am good.

 

[Cagirl767]

Ok, I too admit I really don't like the Dole Whips. But I was afraid to say that about Dole Whips AND corn dogs in one post!

 

[keahgirl8]

Interesting to get different people's takes on this! I actually got sick after eating at Plaza Inn once!

I agree with the comment about turkey legs - is it just me or do you think everyone looks a bit like Fred Flinstone whilst eating them?

Yabba Dabba Doo !!!!
