Dinner Under the "Seas" at Coral Reef! | Disney Dining Show

[@Chellekathryn]

That shrimp cocktail is criminal.

[@chrissygerwitz520]

The reason it was tasteless was because it was previously-frozen shrimp from China.

[@Chellekathryn]

@@chrissygerwitz520 I’m talking about the presentation. No excuse for how that was plated.

[@chrissygerwitz520]

@@Chellekathryn Yeah, that was lame as well. Probably done by some newbie chef who thought he was being fancy.

[@maureenbeckwith128]

great review I'm pleased you enjoyed it,( i bet Pete would have hated it though)🤣🤣

[@hairdresser1300]

I wonder?

[@stevenweatherman7325]

Good job showing and telling.

[@ManzaMediaTV]

This made me think of Bob Saget sitting inside here in the WDW episode of Full House. Loved that episode, always made me want to visit as a kid! Thanks for this episode!

[@Fatalroadie]

Fiasco, what kind of lavalier mic are you using???

[@joykinser3444]

We ate here also 2 years ago. The aquarium was so beautiful. The food was meh. I'm glad to hear it has improved.

[@dee_mcgee11]

Drake Quote of the Day: "There's nothing worse than limp salad." $16 is way pricey for that shrimp cocktail.

[@lozatarify]

That tart-back-of-mouth sensation locally to nottingham in the UK is called "making your tabs laugh". With tabs being ears :p

[@mattdaaamon]

I feel like these days appetizers are generally a rip off and most place you are better off ordering an extra entree and splitting that.

[@hairdresser1300]

great idea

[@aliyahburnette8018]

I remember coral reef it was so embarrassing 😳 that my mom wanted tarar sauce and they didn’t have any 🤣

[@hairdresser1300]

what the!

[@beth12725]

Portion sizes look small...

[@vincentparisi2644]

The small portions have started. 26 for chicken is highway robbery.

[@ellenbishop3884]

We were seated near the entrance and couldn’t see the tank well at all when we went. My children certainly couldn’t see the aquarium. Without a good seat, the price of the food (albeit good food) isn’t worth the restaurant without the view/atmosphere.

[@pamelapetrosino4437]

I enjoyed this review. It was great having the three of you together. I’ve never been there, and I’m not sure if I would go. Thank you for your honesty! Haley looks so good!

[@Treylovesdisney]

I love Coral Reef and have been twice and both times were amazing. Got the shrimp and grits and I loved it. Get it every time I go now. Love the atmosphere. Both times were right down front, and I got some magnificent views of the fish. I highly recommend this place.

[@annasamanthahazel]

Somehow until recently I didn’t even know this place existed! I’m going to give it a try,

[@zombiebbq14]

I have always wanted to eat here! next visit for sure

[@woooooooo9061]

Great vlog, I will not be going here in September. Great job Fiasco, Hayley and Drake shagwell.

[@meghan8969]

I love this place! I always have a good meal here

[@staceyglenn2171]

Great review from all!

[@chrissygerwitz520]

One look at the menu (and prices) should have told you that this place was a place for dessert only.

[@emmaociee]

I loved seeing a positive review of this place! And I love when reviews take things into consideration…like, not everything is meant to be 5 ⭐️ dining. The discussion about resort vs. theme park food was really great.

[@phillipbennett692]

Darn I was hoping for Kevin and John to do another review of Coral Reef after their other failed attempts! LOL

[@kjrichard908]

went several years ago and was disappointed. we were seated 50 mins late, people sitting on the floor, lined up down the hallway. the place was packed and with such a low ceiling, it made me feel claustrophobic. the food was greasy and unremarkable. i think we were sitting in the same booth! :) after this review, i would consider returning and giving it another chance! thanks guys!

[@myrnapowell1637]

Everything looked great. Can’t wait to try it next time we go. Haley’s salad and a soup would definitely hit the spot. Thanks for the great review! So happy to see you two doing dining reviews 💜

[@77Scarlet]

Was there two weeks ago - Beautiful atmosphere, wonderful customer service but my shrimp & grits I got a 1 out of 5

[@toyaliens]

Thats too bad, i loved it when i got it last year

[@amydoran9987]

We used to eat here all the time.

[@sparkleypegs8350]

Haley looks amazing!

[@melissakirk6828]

Y’all should do more restaurants you haven’t been to in forever

[@barbaraannea.9576]

It looks so relaxing! We've never been there, but next time we'll try it! Thank you guys!! Love your video!

[@marymccloskey9450]

How are you people in sticker shock?? It’s Disney. Lol. Shrimp without seasoning only has a hint of sweetness.

[@aregee7121]

Were there anchovies in the Casesar salad or dressing?

[@jimlee8760]

Have eaten here 3 times,enjoy the atmosphere,the food has been pretty good (like you indicated limited menu,wish they would expand it!) but you are right that it’s pricey (but that’s what you have to expect at WDW now!).The flourless cake and the key lime tart are delicious 👍.Thanks guys!

[@louisloother301]

5 shrimp in a shrimp cocktail for 16$ is not an unusual price at all 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@sarab3749]

That key lime tart looks so good!

[@jdrew5367]

If it was a Wild piece of salmon I would’ve paid the price.

[@HeidiSKulesh]

Glad you guys enjoyed it so much. I don't eat seafood, and only ate here a few times in the 20+ years I visited annually, and it was always "meh". Of course -= the "tank" MAKES that place - without that draw, I think the business would "tank". I agree with Drake, and if there's any sort of key lime item offered, I will always get it. I also make a mean Key Lime Pie myself. :)

[@giabarletta5929]

$16 is not bad AT ALL for 5 big shrimp. That’s a standard amount of shrimp for shrimp cocktail. Actually 4 shrimp for like $20 is more normal. At least in NY.

[@chrissygerwitz520]

That's true, but these are cheap, previously-frozen farmed shrimp, so who knows.

[@giabarletta5929]

@@chrissygerwitz520 oh ok, that does make an unfortunate difference!

[@DannyJayKayyy]

Beurre in beurre blanc is French for butter and pronounced “bur.”

[@christinak3509]

I remember exactly what those "bad" key limes in the cardboard wrappers are. I loved those growing up! I enjoyed seeing this review and the desserts look great!

[@buddahstar8]

Lunch or Dinner? Or same menu for both?

[@Kayla-eq5wp]

💕Tell Hayley that she has such pretty hair 💕 Can you all please go to Be Our Guest for a video soon to see if the prix fixe menu is still worth the price?

[@MissLauraSquared]

Haley looks amazing! The last time I consciously remember seeing her was for the watermelon dole whip review about a year ago, and she’s visibly lost weight since then. Haley, did you go on a specific program? If so, which one? I’m struggling with weight loss postpartum and am willing to try anything at this point.

[@hairdresser1300]

She has gone glutton-free..she must have had issues. She does look amazing

[@MissLauraSquared]

@@hairdresser1300 Thank you for letting me know!

[@chloewildner167]

Went at the end of December on Day 1, and my companion raved about the meal the whole rest of the trip. Loved it better than Topolino’s, Steakhouse 71, Il Mulino, etc. Order the Lobster Bisque!

[@hairdresser1300]

good to know...what else did you like?

[@krishnar1182]

Thanks for sharing this. I appreciate your honest reviews and your explanations for them. I had originally planned on going there next month but I'm thinking to cancel my reservation. The food looks a bit underflavored and overpriced for what you get. Keep up the great reviews!

[@brockholman5779]

Much like Rainforest Cafe, the prices for dishes means you are paying for the atmosphere as well.

[@chrissygerwitz520]

No, the reason they are paying more is simply because the restaurant is on Disney property. The $6.00 or so extra that all of them paid for their entrees could be called "the Disney Surcharge."

[@sharonh5399]

Thanks for the review and good job on the review. I love the atmosphere, but the food is not for me.

[@dennissmith5807]

Dang. The last time I was at The Reef was sometime in 1991. The jabroni hulk hogan walked by me In the lobby. I don’t like the new look of the dinning room.

[@chuckoneill2023]

Hey, I found Nemo!! On my plate.😉 Actually, I never eat Clownfish. They taste funny.

[@hairdresser1300]

you are a funny guy

[@justinschrank4806]

Coral reef has been pretty terrible and incredibly overpriced for a long time. It relies solely on its atmosphere. We need Pete at a review like this for his sharp and focused honesty. This is not someplace we should be recommending with so many better restaurants in epcot alone.

[@konichiwa3744]

I'll save us the crying. He hates this place.

[@justinschrank4806]

@@konichiwa3744 well honestly its one of the worst restaurants on property so can't blame him

[@mikeegnatowicz454]

Thank you for your review, my girlfriend and I will be eating there 2/12/22 we were looking for a unbiased review

[@kirkyorgey3750]

I got to admit every time you give the price for a meal it always is far more than I would have imagined period one other comment love Haley

[@tpg5974]

Uhhh, don't take the wrong way but NEWSFLASH... almost everything at Disney is overpriced. I have a hard time paying $9.00 for 32 oz of soup at the local supermarket, never mind $13.00 for a "bowl" of soup at Coral Reef.

[@wakeywarrior]

Well overpriced but looks like food improved here as it had a crappy reputation.

[@Jacob-th4tu]

Wow she looks so thin now. Good job 👏

[@Parkhopper1985]

Like #777 That's good luck!!!

[@mdktf8681]

She loves herself?! Irritating

[@aljalbro]

I don’t find these people to be credible for a food review of anything.

[@chrissygerwitz520]

This whole switching from live narration to voice-overs and back in the middle of sentences? KNOCK IT OFF. It is cheesy and annoying.

[@B-Rad-Ry]

I'm genuinely curious as to why you don't like this effect? Could you elaborate?

[@chrissygerwitz520]

@@B-Rad-Ry Because seeing someone talking and then continue to talk without their lips moving is like watching a ventriloquist dummy at best or a disembodied head at worst. This "effect" is a cheap trick to seem "cutting edge." If you want to talk off camera, just show something else in the meantime.

[@B-Rad-Ry]

@@chrissygerwitz520 Haha. Thank you for the reply. Your comment was so specific that I thought you might have editing or producing experience.
