Review of Kona Cafe Lunch/Dinner

We stayed at the Polynesian for years while our kids were growing up and somehow never managed to give this place a try. We finally decided to eat there for dinner (because we needed a break from MK) and couldn’t believe what we had been missing out on for years. Our kids are grown, so we were there alone, and were very impressed but the quality and flavor of the food. Our server was wonderful and when I asked for a recommendation between three dishes, he suggested I get the chicken. He said it was delicious and it really was. I’m not usually impressed by chicken at a restaurant but this was flavorful and tender. The bok choy that came with it was heavily seasoned with black pepper but still very good. The sticky rice was a nice balance to the black pepper on the veggie. The star of the dinner, in my opinion, were the port and vegetable pot stickers— amazing! They are served in a manner I’ve only seen at more traditional Chinese restaurants— they look like they are pan fried in a round skillet and come out attached to one another with like a lattice work of dough or something across the top and the sauce they are served on kicks the flavor up a notch. Amazing. My husband got the coffee braised short ribs and said they were delicious, as well. We will definitely be going back for dinner.
Pros:
Delicious and somewhat healthy food optionsCons:

If you like beef, I 100% recommend trying the Sukiyaki rice dish. The flavors and presentation are different from anything I’ve ever had before in a Japanese restaurant. I’m not a sushi eater so I didn’t try any sushi, but we also got the chicken karaage appetizer (which was good but nothing different from what I’ve had before) and the kushi skewer assortment (which was also good but again, nothing unique, but a good option for pickier eaters). Service was fantastic. The tables can be a bit close to each other, but that’s no different than other Disney restaurants we’ve eaten in. Overall, a fantastic experience that we would do again. We ate there for lunch, but dinner would be wonderful too.
Pros:
Some unique food you won’t find at your local Japanese/Sushi restaurantCons:

Disney world used to be a 10/10 vacation spot. You would not be let down and they would exceed your expectations. Not anymore. This last trip will probably be my last time going. It is sad to see the place go down hill so quickly. Transportation/rides and restrooms are in a disgusting state, very dirty and unsanitary. Not sure if it's just disgusting guests or inability to meet cleaning needs or both. The majority of the rides broke down during the visit causing wait times to soar. It is definitely not the place it once was, and DEFINITELY NOT worth the money anymore. I'm just glad I got to experience it back before it started to go downhill. The quality it once had is gone, it is now all about getting as much money from you as they can. It is sad seeing it being run into the ground.

A classic disney boat ride attraction, you either love it or hate it!
Pros:
Some pros of this ride are it tends to have a short queue, it has an iconic soundtrack, will bring joy to many and it is just such a classic and in my eyes unmissable in your trip.Cons:
The music can get stuck in your head all day, which for some people is really good but for some really bad. Also at the end of the ride you may be waiting to get of for quite a while.Review of Morimoto Asia

If 5 is average, I’ll call it a 4. I’d like to believe we just ordered the wrong thing but we ordered 3 different entrees and a starter and literally none of them were exceptional. At best they were typical Asian food but to be honest it was all just pretty bland. Very little flavor. Even the dessert item that came with the kids meal was undercooked inside. A hard pill to swallow given the price. Service wasn’t great either. Server walked away several times when we were not done ordering.
Pros:
Atmosphere was trendyCons:

I’ve been in 2 minds of rating lower but I feel like I’d be basing it on alot of staff encounters we had and not other things. A lot of staff are unhappy and fed up here, I know we are only human and cant be happy everyday and every hour on the job and in the florida heat.. I get it but when I compare it to my staff interactions at universal studios, disney doesn’t come close to universal’s standards, not to mention tourist spend alot of money to visit and to have the attitudes of staff negatively impact your experience isn’t ideal. Personally i felt universal had more of a magical feel. The photographers were excellent and all in great spirits for people who had to stand out in the heat all day. I would definitely recommend the photo pass/magic maker, we had ours included with our tickets. The photos they take are nicer than the ones you try to take yourselves. The parks are far away from each other which is annoying compared to disneyland paris where park hopping is easy as the parks are next to each other. We enjoyed genie plus as some wait times are crazy long as all parks are very busy, we even bought individual lighting lanes due to this. The toilet facilities were very clean and well stocked throughout the park which is always a bonus. Disney provides plenty of dining options especially in Epcot. We expected to enjoy Disneyworld florida more than we did Disneyland paris but surprisingly we enjoyed disneyland paris alot more even though its smaller with alot less food options. Disneyworld in Florida hasn’t got that many thrilling rides and even the space mountain was a let down compared to the space mountain in Paris. There is alot more shows and short films in florida though which were nice to get out of the heat and get off our feet for abit. I wouldn’t visit again but I’m glad its ticked off my list as it was a life long dream since a child so maybe thats why it just didn’t meet my expectations but I’m pretty sure the things adults feel and notice a child wouldn’t and their experience would feel magical.

My wife took me to the Naples Shula's last week for my Birthday & we were treated like royalty!... Ashley was our server, and the young lady was outstanding! We will ask for her when we visit in the future. The table was decorated, and all the staff wished me a happy birthday. Even the singer in the lounge sang to me. Oh, did I mention the food was to die for? Excellent presentation. highly recommend the Cajun Ribeye and apple cobbler. Plus, the memorabilia around the restaurant are a sports lover (like me) dream. We will be back soon!

Well worth the splurg. We choose to honeymoon at Disney and decided to book a fireworks party. It was such a wonderful experience. All the desserts and drinks were amazing. And because we had our Celebratory pins on and my wedding ears, they brought out a special dessert and champagne for us!
Pros:
The view, the seating, the service.Cons:
We had to line up early, so that took away from park time. Not sure it's a great experience for kiddos.Review of Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique
