For 62 bucks that filet would be finding its own way back to the kitchen

[@HaloBear-o6p]

…and her mom’s steak! Burned? Back to the kitchen with the rib eye

[@lisawilliams8039]

You can order the cheddar cheese soup from the children's menu as your appetizer. It gives me just enough to enjoy before the meal.

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Ohhhh great tip!!

[@dcolemanbigbee6975]

Very clever

[@localjetsetter]

Ordering from the kids menu is the way to go!

[@davidmckesey7119]

Thanks for the honesty.

[@juanjanidavenport6006]

The cheese soup and pretzel roll was the best thing I had there.

[@rifedesigns1]

Pretzel bread dipped in the cheese soup is the BEST! I could eat just that and be happy.

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

A winning combo for sure 👌🏽

[@beckywadkins2088]

Why do you never send things back? I would have sent the steak back

[@emilywynstra]

I bet those fries from the poutine dipped into a cup of the beer cheese soup would be amazing!! 😋😋

[@lindastephens1916]

Appreciate the honest review. 👍

[@upsidedownworld934]

I always get a kid's portion of the chedder cheese soup for dipping the bread in.

[@cindymitcheltree7961]

Yes! The review I have been waiting for! I’m sad your meal wasn’t great. At least you ended on a good note with dessert and the coffee margarita. I sincerely appreciate you always being honest.

[@JDNJFL]

I took my mom to Le Cellier on Christmas Day in 2016. We both got the filet, it was so salty we couldn’t finish it. We should have complained but we didn’t. We won’t go back. For what you pay, it should be perfect. I appreciate your honesty in all your videos. Disney is a magical place but they have room to improve!

Yikes but that honesty 🫡👏👏👏

[@sarahcrowe8283]

Great video Kristen - love when your mom puts in an appearance! I Have to say that even as an introvert Brit who HATES confrontation both your mom's steak and yours would have been sent back to the kitchen if we'd been there - especially for those prices! Is this something that would rarely happen in a Disney restaurant, or in the US generally? I rarely - if ever - see things get sent back on KZbin videos, even when they're sub-par. This is a genuine question - perhaps the Brits are just a bunch of moany old whingers lol 🤣

[@ThomasJM]

Fun fact the pretzel bread at Le cellier and the sausage buns in the German pavilion are both made in Kitchener Ontario Canada

[@aprilrains973]

[@maryjomarch5811]

I want to try this place soooo bad---I am kind of scared now---I trust your opinion on this--I think I will go else ware until your next review on this restaurant.

[@crisbush2034]

I don't get why your mom continued to eat her steak if it tasted burnt. For the money, send it back. It's Disney, they will exchange it

[@jkhegarty857]

I agree. If the steak was given to you with an overwhelming burnt flavor, send it back. Most, if not all, restaurants will understand if it is not to your satisfaction.

[@ChelsyLewandowski]

I would have finished mine as well. Everyone is different and it makes me uncomfortable to return an item as well. 🤷‍♀️

[@jkhegarty857]

@ChelsyLewandowski Hi Chelsy!! 👋 your response tells me you are very patient and kind. For me, it would be hard to complete a "burnt" tasting steak. It would linger in my mouth & be hard to enjoy the remaining food on my plate. To each his own, of course. You are a better person than me. I'd be sending it back. Bon Appétit!!

[@annmodzelewski9902]

You pay way too much money to eat something substandard.

[@Miche353]

So I was sharing with a friend and we did tell them the truth when asked, and they very kindly removed it from the bill bec at that point we did not want to wait for it to be recooked. Between my friend and I we ate about half. Our server was awesome and like mother like daughter, I told him the truth.

[@kayel4487]

I wish Le Cellier offered lounge seating because I'd like to stop in for soup and poutine. I don't opt for a full meal when I'm in the parks.

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

They could def use a lounge! the restaurant is so tiny inside so I don't think they could ever have enough space for it. You can totally go just to order soup & poutine though.

[@jenniferward5444]

Hey Kristen (& Michelle)! I am so happy you review the food you get without returning it! It’s so authentic to what we might experience while visiting. I’m wondering how much the return of the Dining Plan has to do with the quality of food presented. Would you say that food at the parks was better when there was no Dining Plan?

[@TK-ol6hj]

All Disney restaurants are hit or miss depending on the chef 🧑‍🍳

[@taylorfisher6040]

There are so many delicious places to get steak on property, so consistency is key when charging $50+ for a steak. Somehow the NY Strip at Flying Fish still reigns supreme for me.

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

I agree! That strip at Flying Fish has yet to let me down

[@sandpiper8991]

That is a GREAT point. Consistency is key when trying to decide how to spend our dollar dollar bills.

[@jeremyw9213]

What are ur top 2 places for ribeye in Disney? Thanks for showing us what Le Cellier is like, we have always wanted to try it. Keep up the great videos.

[@ginalola6354]

I would have put the fork down and told a cast member I need a new steak immediately. Unacceptable.

[@ClicksterVR]

oh man, I went to le cellier with my wife in 2019 and the meal was amazing, we both had the filet. Really disappointing to see the food has gone downhill.

[@theboringkaren]

I'm so glad you tried the coffee margarita!! I'm going to Epcot on Sunday and it's on my list!

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Let me know how you like it Karen!

[@PixiePassports]

I'm from Canada and we don't make Poutine the same way. Come on Disney... get it right! Great video BTW, lovely to see your Mom!

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

I always say, it doesn't have to be authentic to still taste good 😂 Would you say the one from Le Cellier or the Refreshment port is more authentic? I've gotta get to Canada to try some real Poutine one of these days!

[@ThomasJM]

Poutine in Canada is just cheese curds and gravy (usually a beef gravy). I'm not really sure which is more authentic poutine as I've never had either in Walt Disney world.

[@PixiePassports]

@@wrightdownmainstreet I've tried the Poutine at Refreshment Port, and it was delicious! Hands down, it's more authentic and simple. If you ever visit, make sure to review Canada's wonderland!!

🧡🧡

[@TiffanyJohnson-yj6kl]

Just ate there on Saturday and it was one of the best meals I've ever had. Such a shame that it seems to be hit or miss.

[@poocky100]

I was a castmember in canada pavillion and worked and ate at le cellier and i like the ambience as it mimics a wine cellar. But I can see why some may not like it. Anyhoo thanks for the videos! 😊

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

It's not for everyone! I think if there was a little more room between each table I would like to cozy wine cellar vibe.

[@poocky100]

@@wrightdownmainstreet yes I like space too. To tell you the truth I didn’t go often cause I find restaurants expensive. But when I did go I enjoyed the meal.

[@amandasauls9265]

We tried Le Cellier for the first (and only) time in Feb 2022. Haven’t been back because my boyfriend had the same experience with the ribeye as you did. There was so much fat on his steak that they ended up discounting it. We haven’t been back because there are just much better places on property to get steak (looking at you, Toledo!).

[@toddcribbs6844]

No I love that restaurant

[@markinthemagic]

I did not have a good meal here back in February. The service was so so so slow. The soup was delicious, but the steak was full of fat and tough 😢

[@MJD123]

oh, no! This made me so sad!! 🙁We've eaten at Le Cellier 3 or 4 times and it's always been one of our faves! Hopefully they can figure it out! At least you ended on a good note with the desserts and that La Cava drink!

[@ilsehunt6338]

I loved lunch at le cellier !

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

My fave spot! But this visit left me disappointed

[@ilsehunt6338]

@@wrightdownmainstreet that’s sad , especially as it’s expensive x

[@RaeHale-vm5vl]

I suspect your mom was unfortunate enough to get a center cut filet. We ran into this issue a few years ago, it was thin and overdone. It was sent back and they brought it right back out to us, the chef refused to give us another. I don’t think we’ve been back since. I do love the mushroom risotto, cheese soup and pretzel bread.

[@Marylynnsauro]

Thanks for sharing Kristen. Le Cellier has been on my list to try but no more. The filet and rib eye cuts looked awful. I would expect more at that price!

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

It usually is a lot better!

[@jkhegarty857]

Hi Marylynn!! 👋 I agree. I live in NYC. Those steaks were NYC prices. I'd be polite, of course, & send it back in a NY minute.

[@ellisejo]

Maybe the Mac and cheese takes like Kraft because Canadians LOVE Kraft Mac and cheese (its actually even called KD in Canada “Kraft dinner”)

[@jackiecowan1084]

Can you please try Yachtsman's Steakhouse to compare the two?

[@dannygrau2983]

Actually when pay 60 dollars for anytype of food in general should be spot on every time.

[@vafoot]

I hope you let them know. That price for what was served, not cool. I enjoy your videos.

[@SandraLovesSun]

I love ribeye, too! I cook ribeye 3-4 times a week! 🥩

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Damn, can I come over for dinner? 😂

[@MLD-rl2ch]

Do you ever ask to replace the item that isn't what you expected?

[@jkhegarty857]

I do. I was in Outback. Ordered a steak. I ALWAYS order medium rare. When I cut into the steak, it was dry, pink and chewy. I immediately (being polite) sent it back for a new steak. When the 2nd steak arrived, it was the very same. I believe it was the original piece of meat. Again, I returned the steak. It was NOT medium rare. It was pink to well done looking. I was very kind to the waitress who was soooo apologetic. She offered to send the chef to the table. I declined. I ate the veg & baked potato & called it a day, leaving a full steak on the plate. She discounted my plate. I tipped the waitress 30% as she really was trying to offer everything to make up for the error.

[@chantalt9431]

Oh no, what a shame that the meals are not up to par. I would like to know the reason why you did not return the plate, especially where the piece of meat was burnt. That said, I love all your videos, thank you for sharing. (Québec in Canada) And no, the poutine here doesn't look like that hahaha I hope they see your video, adjust and apologize

[@vanessarodriguez7480]

Man I have reservations to take my husband here for Father’s Day and now I’m nervous. Thinking I should make a reservation elsewhere.

[@ellencain6114]

AllEars has the recipe for the Canadian beer cheese soup and it is spot on! So you don't have to wait till you go to Disney to enjoy it!

[@rivergirl76]

I found that ordering the steak rare with a char was the best steak. We dined at Le Cellier and I love rib-eye, had the same experience as you. My son ordered it rare with a char and it was delicious. I glad tl know your experience, we'll know how to order next time.

[@Debber0401]

So Kristen, do you let the staff know how dissatisfied you were with the meals!?!

[@vsjohnson9]

I had prime rib with no flavor whatsoever, and the cheese soup was so salty we couldn’t eat it. We did like the atmosphere, but have hesitated to try it again. Unfortunate, since we were really looking forward to eating there.

[@jdrew5367]

Another steak place you might want to try is Shula’s steakhouse at Walt Disney World dolphin resort. I don’t know if you ever review any of the restaurants at the Swan, the dolphin, or The swan reserved. They have a lot of restaurants in these three resorts from Italian I think seafood and there’s not a lot of reviews. Kimono was excellent sushi place and it’s right off the backside of Epcot walking around the boardwalk. They also have a food event at the Swan and dolphin. I’ve seen Tim tracker, go this food event . They serve small plates from each of the restaurants of the swan dolphin and Swan reserve. Thank you.

[@kerryc8384]

What are the 2 steak restaurants better than le cellier?

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Flying Fish & Narcoossee's

[@ellisejo]

Okay that poutine looks like elevated Canadian poutine for sure. I’m not into poutine myself but a lot of people where I am in Ontario order from a relatively local chain and the price for a large “traditional” poutine (similar size to that order) is about $16 so that fancy one really isn’t that bad! The best poutine is in Quebec which inspired le cellier. In my area we don’t have a lot of poutine options and many people like the Costco poutine 😂

[@sandpiper8991]

I’ve literally NEVER had a good steak at Le Cellier lol, my filet has consistently tasted like venison and has been tough-stopped trying after 3 times years apart. The apps are good. Thank you for the review!

[@LASartor]

What are your other 2 top steak restaurants?

[@devinb1396]

There is an off menu plant based poutine that is amazing!

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Nice! Didn't know this. What's on it?

[@carolynhashimoto3729]

You are paying a lot. Burnt? Too much fat? Kraft Mac & cheese? Is this the Disney “magic”? I love your channel Kristen & you do give honest reviews, but why not send it back? From watching several KZbinrs, it seems like a lot of the food is truly unacceptable. Don’t put up with it

[@amberland1229]

Why haven't you kept on doing reviews outside of the parks? Try Las Carretas Mexican Restaurant.

[@shannonmiller5618]

We missed the opportunity to dine here last vacation!

[@ginatownsend9669]

I would complain for the expensive prices you paid!

[@ktancrelle7312]

We had a very similar experience there when we went in April. Very disappointing. The steaks were slightly over so instead of a medium rare, a medium. The meat didn't seem like a good quality cut or even trimmed well. And the service was poor - they rushed everything. When we went a couple years ago, before the menu change, it was fine. Unfortunately we're crossing it off the dining list next trip. I don't mind the price but it has to be pretty flawless. Love your channel!

[@PassionateParkPros]

We've been thinking of going but afraid of not enjoying it and wasting the money, lol! This video helped!! We're definitely going to give it a try! Btw we saw you at the grand flo last friday and wanted to say hello but didn't want to bother you, lol!

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

Give it a try! Like I said I am 3/4 in great experiences (food wise) so I have faith your meal will be good! Always feel free to say hello 😊

[@margaretdow8723]

The shape of both those steaks didnt even look like a rib eye or a filet. I would have sent them both back. Disney sometimes doesnt care what they put out as far a food because they dont think they are going to see that many repeat customers. Especially in the more expensive restaurants. The food should be the same everytime for those prices.

[@katd1026]

I agree 100 percent. My ribeye was all fat. It went downhill. Sad. Was always a top runner.

[@BryanH63]

Oh no... hold the sauce for me. A great Ribeye needs nothing but some salt

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

It definitely didn't need the sauce, just added a little bit of a truffle flavor

[@thecoolestdad]

Being new to your channel, I am so glad to see another You Tuber telling the truth about the not so magical side of Disney. Disney isn't perfect and they have made a lot of mistakes over the years. Sadly even the quality of food has gone down somewhat. I personally am more of a quick service guy that doesn't want to spend a lot of money for food, nor lose well over an hour just to eat. The admission costs way too much to spend hours at sit down restaurants, in my opinion. I will do some sit down places but rarely. I am so frugal and old school, it's pathetic. LOL JK! Seriously, I just don't spend a ton of money for food. We ate at Cape may 2 years ago and it was $41 a piece. I hated the price but the food really was awesome. I had no complaints about the food. But I do appreciate your videos for being truthful with us about what you are talking about. Too many You Tubers want to be "Disney Influencers" and get hailed in by Disney for all of the free perks for "Playing their game" to a T. To me it is quite silly, if not ridiculous that so many of the "influencers" portray Disney as "doing no wrong" in everything. I want truth and in reality, it actually helps us guests to want to try some things or bypass them altogether. I also do You Tube videos. I haven't been doing them but a little over a year now. I will do Disney and Universal when I am down there; but I also do a lot of other subject matter than just theme parks. I also tell the truth when it comes to Disney and Universal in my videos. I don't sugar-coat my comments. If something is bad, I tell it. If it is good I make sure to rant and rave about it. I do hope you Kristen, and all that read my comment, will chick on my name and go to my channel and subscribe to my channel and watch my videos. We all have to start somewhere and promote ourselves as we can. Thanks to all that may read my long comment and hopefully will check me out as well. Thanks.
