Jungle Skipper Canteen Restaurant Review at Magic Kingdom | Disney Dining Show

[@stephenmaher9067]

I miss Pete, and plenty of other past contributors, but there's something so special and watchable about Erica/Craig/Rhino. I didn't watch the DIS for a while (no fault of the show sometimes you just wind up watching way too much reality tv lol), but when I gave it another chance out of the blue about two months ago I just really found myself enjoying this trio. Keep up the good work y'all.

[@shewasadragon]

I feel the exact same! I really like this trio

[@ckbarry]

💯

[@KittyMeowWow]

Agree, love the trio! Great work guys!

[@ginadoyle4089]

Very special.

[@cosettesgottatacoboutit]

Same! I miss Deny, but glad she's doing what she loves

[@gabemarshall6513]

Wanted to say I love this trio and in this review I really enjoyed how you all mentioned the offerings that you did not get to show the variety of the restaurant. Thanks for the great work!

[@annaxbarie]

Glad to see Erika actually got to eat a full meal today 🎉🎉🎉

[@trishg.7053]

Awesome and balanced review. I like that you guys get a range of menu items, not just the most popular dishes! ❤

[@DisMindy5767]

Erica dear, I am so glad you're there to try things for me. You seem to choose what I would choose. We have an ADR here next month, and it's been a very long time since we've eaten there. All previous times I've gotten the plant based Crew Stew. It was delicious. I am now very much looking forward to trying that falafel appetizer. In fact depending on how hot it is, that may be my meal. I am leaning toward the Tastes like chicken for my entree. We can't eat pork or shellfish and dairy is frought with complications. Thank you for your review right on time!

[@Shelley9090]

Love watching these restaurant reviews with the three of you. You guys make a great team. Thank you so much!

[@ginadoyle4089]

That Kungaloosh dessert is phenomenal!!!

[@joevizzi8804]

Hands down the best Restaurant at the Magic Kingdom !!! The Chef is beyond great

[@joevizzi8804]

Yes it’s good , I agree

[@amydoran9987]

Be our guest used to be the best, before they changed the menu. I have eaten at Skipper and the food was awful.

[@joevizzi8804]

@@amydoran9987 Really ? What did you eat ?

[@KforFreedom]

Great review! Glad to hear so many dishes reviewed & other options mentioned.

[@VTBob88]

One of our favorite restaurants on property, we made sure to have reservations the last 2 times we visited!

[@randyrau565]

Such a wonderful team! Loved this review and will definitely check out the Skipper Canteen during our next visit to Magic Kingdom. Yummerific! ❤

[@AdamJohnson0110]

My favorite place to eat at MK.

[@ManzaMediaTV]

Brutallly honest opinion here : this place looks top tier for a theme park destination, and every dish made my mouth water. Can’t wait to try it sometime! Lots of things I’d like. Particularly all the items Craig was eying.

[@joyc8553]

I really just love the three of you! You really are doing such a great job and I enjoy your show!

[@jordanfitch93]

Cast member clearly kicking napkin under the table 🤣 3:04

😂😂😂😂

[@garypesci746]

I noticed that too, but he came back later @8:24 and picked it up.

[@kellykristine1238]

Absolutely love Craig and Ryno doing table service reviews. This trio is solid. Great review!

[@prowrestlingisart6742]

The family in the background truly entertained me

[@Drpatrickwarren]

Never been but always wanted to! Canceled 2 reservations at separate vacations. Kids and wife don’t see anything they like but I want to try it all!!!!!

[@MrsFreiden8]

Same! I am going next time, I promised myself!

[@MelissaBell-dl1yi]

You won’t regret it. I’ve been twice it’s really good!

[@mr.patrickaloysiusbartholo4727]

This is exactly why I have no wife and kids

[@jgplmp1984]

Glad you enjoyed it, it is one of my favorite meals I ever had.

[@kimbrojm]

We love Skipper Canteen and try to fit it in every trip. My favorites are the Tastes Like Chicken, the Orinoco Ida's Cachapas (I could easily make a meal off of this appetizer) and the Char Sui Pork. My husband and son love the Dan Dan Noodles. It's interesting that you guys thought the noodles were too salty. My husband has to watch his sodium and he's very sensitive to anything over salted and he's had those a couple of times and never mentioned it. I'm wondering if maybe they just had an off day in the kitchen on that dish. My son mentioned that the broth looked darker then he remembered, so maybe someone was a little heavy handed with the soy sauce that day. Still, this restaurant is a winner. We adore it.

[@melissaslater2575]

We love Skipper Canteen. Eating there Sunday! First res of our trip. Can’t wait.

[@lisagimblett8646]

Skipper Canteen is one of my favorites! The Sangria is delicious!!

[@mickeyc5272]

This is one of our must eat places every trip! I usually get the soup and then I get the falafel appetizer as my dinner. With a beer, that is plenty for me! Erica: I look forward to that falafel every trip!

[@alexackerman4540]

Great episode! Enjoyed the video! Thanks y’all! Y’all are the best Disney vloggers in my opinion! Keep up the great work! 🎉

[@nicoleacosta5545]

I have not been here in so long so this review was a much needed culinary journey to witness. Yet another terrific vlog and descriptive update. I will definitely get those lamb chops Craig! Sorry Ryno!

[@bebehello1111]

I had this restaurant on my consideration list... so glad I came across your review. Ya'll did a great job and it's awesome that Erica is diary free and can give me the diary free options.

[@susan_elizabeth]

Erica, I LOVE "not dry chicken"! Similar adjectives might be "juicy", "tender"...... 🤣😉

[@vafranklin22]

I'm so glad you guys enjoyed most of your meal!! I love this place so much, and Erika got my go-to's - the falafel and the fried chicken ❤

[@RoxieHeart603]

I love this place!

[@edstrong597]

Love the DIS keep up the good work! Thanks for going here. I’ve asked you a few times to review this restaurant. Glad to see the 3 Pillars of the DIS out doing reviews. Ryno you know we count on the DIS for Honest reviews. Don’t ever worry about being negative.

[@carolfunicelli5016]

This was my son's favorite restaurant the last time we were in DW and he still talks about the Char Sui Pork... we will definitely be returning... and this time I"m getting those lamb chops! Great restaurant review... I really enjoyed it!

[@Tracy_F]

Haven’t been for years but just booked based on this review. We’ll be there on 2 weeks. Thanks!!

[@nikkiguthrie4716]

Love Erica's input- dairy allergy here. Def made notes for our next trip!

[@joecasagranda8587]

My wife and I 100% agree with this review. We absolutely love the 2 apps you guys ordered and usually get both and split an entree. Ryno's noodles is what we split last time and it was super salty and not good compared to the spicy noodle dish that used to be on menu.

[@jenny71WDW]

the noodle dish they need to bring back was the "Thai perkins spicy noodles" the shrimp fried rice app was good too!

[@goldilocks3752]

Love your show! I have to eat gluten free, and had the best falafels with the humus appetizer there! Plus the gluten and dairy free taste like chicken because it is, is so good!!

[@juliak.5996]

Great job, love watching the 3 of you. Also thanks for letting me live vicariously through this episode. We had this booked on a recent trip but I got overruled and we cancelled it. 😂Next time!!

[@prowrestlingisart6742]

The brazilian bread is the best thing at skipper canteen. And I love most everything on the menu. I just wish they still offered Melon Frosty

[@candaceigh]

I’ve heard of this restaurant but didn’t know it was in MK and didn’t know the food was so good, definitely added this to my disney bucket list

[@dee_mcgee11]

I would definitely get that falafel as my entree. There's not enough falafel at WDW.

[@mickeyc5272]

I always do!

[@mandyhoretski309]

This video has me excited to eat here next month!

[@WorkerBeeSupply]

Great to see a review of this place! My partner and I went during our trip in April and this meal was definitely a highlight of all the meals we enjoyed. I had the lamb and he had the noodles. I don’t remember the noodles being particularly salty, but it also didn’t surprise me that Ryno felt that way as we found a lot of WDW food to be a little too salty. Craig’s dessert looked amazing but unfortunately I can’t have cashews! 😩 Thanks so much for all the wonderful dining videos as of late!

[@RogelioGarcia-sm1bx]

I was there last September and my party of 3 had the same entrees. Our experience was not the same. So I might give it another chance now. I also miss Pete, because he was always critical like me!

[@candidapm2474]

This came out the day we had reservations for it (we do this every trip and have always been happy).

[@deborahmaddry3615]

Thanks for your review. We tried Skipper Canteen in May 2023. I was so looking forward to the chicken too. Unfortunately, it was way too salty. They brought me the sliced steak with sauce on side, veggies, and rice. This was delicious, and I'd dine there again. 😊

[@lisarighetti5385]

Being an “adventurous” vegan eater, I love this restaurant.

[@Rosa-L978]

Best meal we had on property!

[@amandaberofsky]

"Do you really love the lamb, or are you just saying it because you saw it?"

[@tammystime3]

Great review. We love eating there. My hubby agrees totally with Ryno on the noodle dish. Made us want to go back to eat!

[@PeteC75]

Best Falafel ANYWHERE. Get that dish!! The corn pork taco thing Craig got is also awesome.

[@KittyMeowWow]

Definitely going to visit when we go this year 💯!!

[@jasonzambricki1669]

We ate there in March 2022, and we had the Orinoco Ida's Cachapas too. Honestly loved them, could have eaten 4 plates of them. Had Irrawaddy Irma's Hanger Steak as my entree and that was also really good. def would have both again

[@jasonzambricki1669]

We ate in the room after the library and it was so much more quiet and subdued

[@skaluv]

I enjoyed this restaurant and so did my vegetarian wife. And despite getting minor heartburn from the chicken I would get it again in a heartbeat. A very good restaurant!

[@shellykp33]

I see a video with Ryno, I hit play.

[@tombangalter5924]

Cachapa is actually a Venezuelan dish. Interesting they paired it with pulled pork. It's usually doesn't have flavor ( it's corn), and served with white cheese and a seasoned beef cut.

[@edwindrood2816]

Good job, I enjoy these reviews with the trio

[@natashafreeman2220]

Hands down my fav place at Magic Kingdom!! The chicken is the best

[@jaehochung9939]

My favourite service restaurant in magic kingdom :) great review!

[@victormiguelmorales1892]

Great Video. Thank you. It was really nice to see that they serve “Cachapas”, wich are from my born country, Venezuela 🇻🇪

[@susan_elizabeth]

Shout-out to falafel entree! 💜

[@stroyer2103]

So what is Erica exactly? It seems like she's vegan in 1 review and then all the sudden she's eating chicken or fish another

[@charliedurham4248]

Craig getting philosophical with the Free Will discussion. I don't think you have a choice whether you like it or not

[@Jubilee-Livy]

❤great video ❤great shirts❤great trio❤happy 4 to all😊

[@nickpalance3622]

I think I had lamb chops one or twice years ago. I mostly forgot what they were like but “meh” to “ugh” came to mind. But when we ate here a few months ago, some inside me said “try Disney’s version” and I’m glad I did. Uh-maze-ing. That’s the good news. Bad news is I probably won’t like any other restaurant’s lamb. Basically this place ruined it for me. And later in that week we ate at Beaches and Cream and I didn’t want a burger so I tried the grilled cheese and Disney ruined that for me too (I.e. also amazing). As if to make up for this, we finally went to Kona Cafe after years of hearing about the Tonga Toast and tried it and … dry and meh. Liked the pancakes and sausage etc however! Okay got a little lost but the Skipper Canteen was a place we overlooked and I’m so glad we tried it and so glad I gave lamb another chance.

[@crgmonroe]

@Craig Why don't you see if Pete will pony up for 3 microphones so the reviews can be a discussion without each person having to take their mic off. Just a thought.

[@DISUnlimited]

That sounds like a nightmare of everyone talking over each other and the camera person being a disembodied voice.

[@crgmonroe]

@DISUnplugged Haha, as with a conversation, you three are already self-trained to not speak over one another. Just a suggestion on an easier microphone transition

[@DISUnlimited]

We'll maybe start with a second one and see if we need to go crazier than that.

[@crgmonroe]

@@DISUnlimited By the way, love your shows, reviews and appreciate your production!

[@Mickeysister]

This is my husband's favorite restaurant at magic Kingdom.

[@MirabelFan]

I love the 3 of you doing this. You each bring something unique to the reviews. I thought Erika was vegan? I remember watching a recent review and she had chicken fingers? Must have been a vegan option. I appreciate the work you put into these!

[@WastedPo]

I think she has a dairy allergy. So as a result, she often orders vegan options, even though she's not vegan.

[@mini_mew775]

Hears the word MOIST and gags "whyyyyyy!?""

[@garypesci746]

With so many negative comments made here about the food it makes me wonder if the restaurants at Disney World are recognizing Craig & Ryno, since they have been doing Disney World videos for several years and now many restaurant reviews, so the restaurants are taking special effort to make sure their food is good.

[@bdchiaccio]

Great food and experience but the only issue I've ever had is the wait to get in is so incredibly long, even after you have checked in.

[@heatherhsia4623]

Thank you!

[@ibowers819]

I want to say first that I love the show. Love this crew. Thought this was a great review, but PLEASE, can we stop making a big deal over the word "moist"? It's so childish and played out to to stop what you're saying to complain about a word. It's not just this podcast. I hear people do it all the time. You can hate the word if you want, that's fine, but can we stop making it into something that has to be mentioned every time the word is used? That said, Skipper Canteen is my go-to table service restaurant at Magic Kingdom. I always have great meals there.

[@LisaAnn365]

Went to this restaurant a few years back (pre-Covid), and I wanted to like it. But nothing was that great or really stood out. I'm willing to try it again; maybe it was just an off night, who knows.

[@ckbarry]

Your review didn’t come across as negative, Ryno. Just honest. While it’s less surprising because your dish was soy based, I find almost all dishes at WDW too salty. Even at Tifffins and California Grille, while I enjoyed our meals, everything seemed too salty, And I enjoy salt…potato chips, popcorn, bring it on. I just don’t like over salted mashed potatoes, soups, sauces, etc. Great review, all.

[@veronicareitherreese6671]

Enjoyed my meal there.

[@colindblair]

When Erica goes back and tries the vegetable stew, please sticky comment here what she thinks. The tastes like chicken is my second favorite dish there, but my favorite was when the whole fried fish was lion fish. You can’t beat being ethically required to eat a fish to help protect the ocean. Too bad that supply was not reliable enough.

[@jonnyboy7885]

Best restaurant at MK easily....

[@pinkorganichorse]

Portions look small, yes?

[@MommyNancy1979]

I disliked my lamb, not because it's lamb, but because the harissa sauce was all over my dish and just way too spicy!! And I love spice. I definitely preferred my daughters chicken.

[@SusanStypa]

I finally gave Skippers a try a few trips ago and was very disappointed. I had the tastes like chicken and it was battered bones…no chicken on the bones. I literally got barely a fork full of chicken with no exaggeration and our waiter was no where to be found. I asked for the sauce that comes on it to be on the side being not sure if I would like it or not and I did not like it. The other 2 in my party did not like their meals either. I know sometimes you have an off day but I don’t know if I could give it another try 😕

[@KatMatthews91]

Yummy yummy ❤

[@jenniferrundle6870]

It took us a long time to make the decision to eat there but MAN it turned out to be so good! And it really remains a hidden gem there-probably less and less soon with these food reviews! Can I put in a request that you review Rosa Mexicana?

[@TheRealConcertKing]

Falafelentree.

[@ashleighnichole8197]

I cancled our reservation here because one for T-Rex Cafe opened up....now I'm super disappointed i did that!!!

[@jaklg7905]

I had probably one of the worst Disney dining experiences at Skipper Canteen a few years ago. The server was just horrible. He was just saying their spiel in a monotone voice while looking around at his other tables. I was solo so maybe he didn't think that I was worth his time. He did not check on me at all during the meal. I ordered the chicken and it was bone dry to the point where I could not eat it. So I sat there, trying to flag him down to say that it was inedible. I sent it back and yet was still charged for it. I was so angry that I just paid and left. I really should have pushed the issue but at that point I had already been there over a half an hour not eating and was starving.

[@marilynkozlow8400]

If you don’t like moist, say juicy.

[@susan_elizabeth]

Craig, pronunciation lessons. The "r" in "char siu" is silent. "Cha-soo". "Chermoula" is NOT whatever you said. It's pronounced "cher-moola". Hope that helps! BTW, those lamb chops looked incredible!

[@mr.patrickaloysiusbartholo4727]

This is like the perfect Disney restaurant. In MK. Awesome food. Top notch theming. This is an imagineers wet dream. But you have to wonder why is this creativity and ingenuity missing in the parks? So sad. I mean the imagineers should be running the show. This has always been the key to Disney Magic since day one. Mickey Mouse should let Joe Rhode run the show with a blank checkbook. This is the only way you will beat Universal. Otherwise you’re toast Disney.

[@LARKXHIN]

Why did I think this restaurant was in Animal Kingdom?

[@darrellking6868]

Where is Panda?

[@DISUnlimited]

He no longer works for the DIS.

[@deputydisney]

They never get the food that most people would order. I’m down for them getting unique food items, but at least get one that most people order. They went to homecoming and no one got chicken. And now this. Bring back Pete.

[@DISUnlimited]

You mean getting the signature chicken dish that has been on the restaurant menu since opening day and was clearly being ordered the most in the restaurant isn’t what most people order? Pete would’ve ordered the chicken so I saved you some time.

[@deputydisney]

@@DISUnlimited I think you read my comment wrong, because yes I wanted someone to order the signature dish that most people get, which as you said, Pete would have ordered. It is nice to see different items ordered, but one could be a common dish. 🫡

[@DISUnlimited]

Sorry I did. We are going to start talking to the server's more at each restaurant to find out what is the go-to item if it isn't listed.

[@CathleenWithAC]

LOL. Say “tender” instead of “moist” when discussing chicken.

[@gregoryjohanek5832]

Rhyno has never been a fan of Bass to mouth...

[@jessekiestler6522]

This place is terrible. Do not waste your time.

[@HappilyEverEmber]

I'm sorry but I can't take a reviewer seriously who wears 20 rave bracelets. xD

[@dayzero3410]

I don’t care about Erica’s food allergies. Much less do I want to hear her explain it, through her nose, every video. Give her her own show where she can just order food and eat it without explaining her allergies. Everyone has a reason for what they eat- “my grandma made the best meatloaf and this tastes like it” , “my grandpa molested me with an udon noodle, so I don’t eat that”. I don’t care.

[@dayzero3410]

Holy cow, I hadn’t gotten to the dessert when I posted that. “Fun fact”, she’s allergic to something else.

[@marilynkozlow8400]

I agree!!! The udon noodle reference has me dying 😂

[@mickeyc5272]

Not sure if you are being trollish or just intolerant. There are many people with food allergies who appreciate when that is addressed in a review. If this bothers you, don’t watch.

[@BeardFreak]

Wow. Then just don't watch...

[@trerock]

I don't know which is funnier - that you think anyone else cares what YOU think of the DIS Unplugged restaurant reviews or that you think you are somehow entitled to dictate the content of these FREE video reviews. The fantastic thing about this trio is that they're able to offer opinions addressing a variety of tastes, eating choices and allergy needs. If you don't care about this and don't like that, you'll be happier if you find other video reviews to watch.

[@auraballoon]

Those are glorified cafeteria food.
