where to eat at IOA?

[mhingher]

We'll be spending one day at IOA during our upcoming trip in March. We'll have breakfast in our hotel room in Disney, and I know we'll have one meal that day at Margaritaville (gotta have the cheesburger in paradise!) Where do you suggest we have our other meal? I would like to spend about $10/person, so it would obviously be a counter meal, which is fine. I would like to be somewhat healthy, and have a salad or sandwich/wrap (something besides a burger, chicken fingers or pasta...) Any suggestions?

Any suggestions on where to find the best snacks?
TIA!

Croissant Moon Bakery would be a good choice. Its located as you enter the park in Port of Entry. They make sandwich platters with sides. Great turkey and swiss and I get fruit (cantaloupe and grapes). After a while we get tired of the burger, pizza, nuggets choices everywhere too.

Confisco's also at Port of Entry has a nice menu and recently added low carb selections to their menu. Could be right around $10 a person for many of the choices. Check it out.

They have a few fruit stands located through out the park. I know for sure one at Marvel and one at Suess Landing. Lots of great selections.

Enjoy!

Oh and Arctic Express for the BEST funnel cakes!

Gotta second the funnel cake. We went there and I wasn't sure if the kids would like it, so I bought one. The lady saw we were splitting it and loaded it up for four people. It was great.
On to the topic, I don't think that Mythos is much more than $10/person depending on what you eat, and the setting is great.

DH and I ate there for lunch last week and it was wonderful- the food, the view, the service. Sure, some of the entrees are pricey, but the apps are large and might be enough to satisfy. I got the shirmp "sushi" (huge shrimp with asparagus, wrapped in rice & seaweed, then deep fried in some sort of light breading), AND an Oriental Chicken Salad, which was enough to feed two folks easily. DH got the wings- not your usual wings, either. These were sorta charcoal grilled and not "saucy" (the sauce was on the side). I can't remember what he had as a main course, but we left very happy and full.

If you have kids try the circus tent in the Seuss Landing area. The theme is pretty cool,the food was good and prices weren t bad.

Thinder falls at JP has great wraps big enough to share at $9 each well worth it then get that ice cream funnel and they are really big about $6 big enough for 2 Mythos is great but if u are going to try there its best to exp it fully or just for desert I didn't really think the appetizers where that big they tasted superb but still room for the entree, but u could order 2 chocolate platters and at $8 they go around 2 people so u could have your wrap then a short walk to choc paradise

When we ate at the Circus Mcgurkis the food was Bleah, at best. We ate there for the kids for the setting but didn't care for the food at all.

I've eaten at Circus McGurkus three times and never had bad food, its pretty basic though, spagetti, fried chicken etc. Nobody mentioned the Enchanted Oak restaurant though, we ate there this last January and thought it was the best meal in the park. Its located across from Dueling Dragons. They serve rotissie chicken, you get half the chicken, potato or fries, corn on the cob, corn bread for about $8-9 I think.

I second the bakery, I think they serve the same sandwhichs like the Cheesecake place in US, and if so they are around $6 and huge and come with fruit... great deal. You could always get a free ice water w/ it.
