Hello everyone!
This isn't a super fancy dining report. Just a few words about our dining experiences recently. A short background: Myself and my 2 DD (15 and 16) decided to have a Thanksgiving with Mickey. We got the free dining promotion on the last day of the allowed dates and it was honored the length of our trip!
Here is our reviews:
Tony's town square - dinner was as expected. We were sat promptly around our ADR time. We all had the same entree, chicken parm. The only hiccup was we had indicated my DD (15) had a strawberry allergy so we could see what desserts she could choose from. Somehow that translated to her entire meal being gluten free. They corrected their error immediately and brought her the entree replacement within a few mins. The server suggested next time to not mention that particular allergy at check in because they often get confused and only want her to order from the allergy free menu completely. We took his advice and would just ask about strawberries if we weren't sure and it went smoother. My dessert was the Cannoli and it didn't disappoint. Last year they had a cute Lady and the Tramp in powered coco on the plate. Not this year. Not a big deal, still delicious. Both DD got the chocolate Gelato and said it was fine. Will return here on future trips.
Ohana character breakfast - Sat about 30 mins after our ADR. Food was great! Always a favorite but then again we love breakfast foods. 2nd platter took awhile to come out after we requested. Girls love the guava juice. Fantastic character interaction. Will definitely return.
Chip and Dale Harvest - Sat 60+ mins after our ADR time. Hostess stated they were running way behind. Once seated, took at least 20 more mins to get our drink order. Server was nice but clearly had too many tables. Maybe staffing issues that particular night? We were seated in the outer part of the circle which was fine. The rotation scenery was nice. I really liked the food. My 16 year old stated the beef was "slap" which apparently is good in regular human terms. Ha! Girls didn't care for the potatoes. Said they tasted like feet. Not sure how they know what feet taste like but I thought they were good. Mac and cheese was ok. It was garnished with gold fish crackers which I thought was kind of cheap. Great character interaction chip and Dale were awesome! Now here comes the super bad part. Lol. The seating we had was banquet style so you were sitting next to another family not really sharing a table but close enough. The family we were sat next to were incredibly rude. Up and down and up and down the entire meal. Now when characters come by I get it, although they should have sat their children on the outside. But they were up and down the entire meal! Each time they would kick my DD, get some sort of body part or hair in her plate! I finally said something to the mother when her son stretched out on the bench and propped his feet in my DD lap. She acted like I was crazy. Mind you, they could have done their ants in their pants routine down on the other end of their table where there wasn't anyone but no they chose to enter and exit the 2 foot slot between ours over and over and over. Sorry still bitter over the rudeness! Ha! Dessert was strawberry shortcake which was fantastic! Sadly my DD couldn't have and the over stressed, under staffed server was terribly rude when we asked for an alternate dessert for her. She got a plain sugar cookie after a very long wait. Will probably not return unless they were to change the seating. Just not for us.
That's it for now. Stay tuned for the rest of our meals as I have to get to work soon!
