Any word on Tables in Wnderland? Or something else like it that Disney will offer.
Citricos is our go to every visit for a fancy night out. It always brings the magic to life and takes service and food to a whole new level.
Boma…the variety and price can’t be beat. Salads and cooked dishes like you don’t get anywhere else. Our first night always spent here.
Chefs du France. Also excellent. Took mum for her 70 birthday. Was hoping to this year for her 80. Covid might put a stop to that.
The restaurant’s are amazing. The food top notch. I miss the entire Disney experience. Right down to my last night always at Crystal Palace with Pooh.
What is the latest news on Harbor and Nine Dragons??
The Hollywood Brown Derby is pricey and worth every dollar we have spent. The food is scrumptious and the desserts sinfully amazing. The menu is seasonal and we have not ever been disappointed
Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo in Star Wars:Galaxy’s Edge has awesome American food in a casual setting to eat in or take out. We often order 2 meals each an have it the next day.
Storybook Dining at Artist Point was shockingly one of the best dining experiences I’ve had at Disney, and I’ve been to virtually all of them, and I’m pretty bummed I can’t take my snow-white obsessed niece anytime soon if ever ?
What about Cape May Cafe? We really missed the seafood buffet.
Big big disappointment when we went in the fall was the limited dining experiences. Not everyone appreciates a burger, bugs, or turkey leg at every meal and truly not thinking about placing orders ahead of time for other quick service. Less magic because of this. Conversely, spent insane dollars on alcohol just to make it less painful. Won’t be back for some time, my liver can’t handle it.
I want Columbia Harbor House too! My wife and I were sad it was closed when we went in October.
With the line for Peter Pan winding thru Harbour House I don’t see it opening soon.
Give me back Trader Sam’s Grog Grotto! That is my wife & my favorite weekly date night spot & we miss it so much…. BANG, BANG! TWO SHOTS OF RUM!!
What is their reason for not opening? What are they afraid of?
