@shepwillner75073 жыл бұрын
Hypothetical question: suppose you're taking your son someplace special for lunch or dinner and he's the same age as your daughter. Where do you take him, someplace macho so that he can see how guys in fancy costumes behave? For example, would you take him to the Biergarten for eating, singing, drinking, and dancing to German music; to the Japanese hibachi place for a fun display of juggling with knives; or to Gaston's Tavern to see how a bully like Gaston behaves towards people he despises? Now, take both son and daughter to Cinderella Royal Table; what does your boy take from the experience if he's too young for ogling princesses? If I go there, I'd go myself just for ogling Cinderella, especially the live-action movie version, not the animated character.

I have been going to Disney since the Empress Lily Opened before the Parks did and I drive from 1100 miles away so on the drive I have no choice but to stop for something. Now it depends on why I am at disney whether I agree with you. When with my Grand or Great-grand kids we do the whole thing except the Hotels (I have always had a house in the area - my family lived on Anderson Street in Orlando and My great Aunt IS the storied Lucille who ran the counter at Woolworths downtown) However - If I am alone I rarely eat at disney. It is very expensive for an 84 year old retired person to justify alone. I always go to the Cape May Buffet - just like I always went to Broadway at the TOP but normally I eat Breakfast at home, early (6 am or earlier) take a snack about 11AM at the parks (Maybe only a piece of fruit) and then leave the parks and there are a few local restaurants that still have early bird specials (Generally around 4PM) that are worth it. One place HAD a complete Prime Rib Dinner including Appetizer, Salad, dessert and drink for $10) THEN I go back to the parks if they stay open - or to Jelly Rolls at night. I really miss Pleasure Island. I get more and longer trips to the place that way. I have done all the "special" dinners at one time or another already. WHile the meals have gotten better lately, there was a time when they were nothing I could not do better at home.

The thing about PizzeRizzo (and all of Disney's puffy pizza) is kids love it and it can usually appeal to super picky eaters. Some kids would happily down a flatbread, but many wouldn't. I totally get why tired sunburnt parents wanting their kids to eat something other than chicken nuggets and not wanting to spend even more $$$ on their Disney vacation would go for PizzeRizzo. (This is how I feel about the Rainforest Cafe hate, too ... sometimes you do what you have to do to appease picky kids who can be super loud while dining out!) I will also admit to really enjoying Cosmic Ray's, lol. You nailed it, the food isn't stellar (though I think it's pretty decent for your basic fast food, tbh) but you can always find an open table and enjoy some AC. And the bathrooms are always clean and usually not super busy. And, of course ... Sonny!

I think Be Our Guest should be on this list as well. We just ate there tonight, and it was really a mediocre at best experience. And the prices are $62 for adults, $37 for children. Our daughter's "made on premises" mac and cheese was dry. Mom and Dad's dinners were "OK", certainly not what you'd expect for the price. The desert trio was so sugary sweet it was inedible for us, and even for our daughter. We were in one of the side rooms, and you get maybe a 3 second glimpse of the Beast from where we were sitting - he only walks through part of the room (the part which we were not in). To be fair, the server comped our daughters dinner, but still it ended up $150 with tip for 3 people. To make matters worse, it was our daughters 6th birthday and our last day on the trip, so it was extra disappointing. We went to guest services, and the person at guest services wouldn't do anything and was frankly rude to us. What a bummer for the end of our week long trip. (edited for punctuation)

Before the pandemic Cosmic Rays starlight cafe had a free topping bar. Sautéed mushrooms, lettuce, tomatoes, onion, pickles. It was pretty impressive. We went last year and we didn’t see the topping bar (Damn Covid). I remember my first trip there with my wife for our honeymoon years ago. We were no where near better off financially than we are now so we were trying to pinch Pennys when we could at the time and I ended up making a big salad out of the free topping bar lol and I took a few bites of the burger my wife had.

Depending on the Restaurants that are at a Disney Hotel, the meals can run from Okay to Blah. However - Room Service takes forever at Disney and the likelyhood that your meal will be stone cold is something that -for the Astronomical price - I don't think I can justify. YOU might be better off getting delivery from some of the OUTSIDE Disney places that deliver to the Hotels.

One word about room service meals at the Disney hotels: pizza. Lots of pizza from the on-property pizzeria. Concur with what somebody else posted: you'll be lucky your order arrives warm if not hot. Otherwise, be prepared to go to the hotel lobby and get your order from a Doordash, Grubhub, or Uber Eats driver, then take the food back to your room and eat it there.
