We recently dined at Chefs de France. We have enjoyed it in the past but were disappointed in our last dining experience.

Pros:

Atmosphere

Cons:

The french onion soup had more bread in it than soup. Our meal was luke warm at best and not very flavorable. Sorry to say that we will be taking it off our list in the future.

Our party of 6 had dinner here in September of 2021 and could not have been more disappointed. I have eaten here many times over the years and it has gotten progressively worst but this was the worst. I understand since Covid the servers are no longer region authentic, which is a huge atmospheric loss, but the quality and quantity of the food has declined greatly too. Don't bother with the charcuterie board, we received packaged saltine crackers with a few not great cheeses and a pate that was yucky. The filet was not filet, it was another cut of beef (perhaps a shoulder cut), the salmon was dry, the potatoes were decent, the veggies nothing to write home about. I have never minded paying for good food but they charge a premium here and the food was on par with a hospital cafeteria. It is not worth the money.

Pros:

Servers were nice but inexperienced. Martini's were good.

Cons:

Food taste, quality, quantity and price.

Our family & friends had dinner here in January. I would say that the best part of our meal was our waitress who was wonderfully attentive. Our food was DISAPPOINTING! The French onion soup was good. My husband ordered the charcuterie board as an appetizer! Wow! Don’t bother! AWFUL! Cheap cheese, I could buy better at my local supermarket! Awful pâté! Such a serious disappointment, especially considering the staggering price of $16.75 for two cheap cheeses, an awful pate, and six grapes! The Salade de chèvre chaud (Baked Goat Cheese) wasn’t bad, but that’s about it. I got the Boeuf Bourguignon as an entree. It was meh… for $32.95! My husband got the Salade du Chef au poulet as an entree, as he wanted something a little lighter. We could have made a much better salad at home. We decided to try the Crème Brûlée for dessert, it was liquid!! AWFUL! So very disappointing! We will not be going back to this restaurant! Very sad to have spent $200.00, only to have felt like we got a very poor meal, and got better food at many quick service locations across the parks. Overall, I would say, skip it and eat at the various stands across the park, at least when there is a festival going on.

Pros:

None

Cons:

Expensive & not very flavorful

Overall, this was a one and done for me. I ordered a salad and french onion soup and was very disappointed. My husband loved his Ratatouille though so I guess it's hit or miss flavor-wise. The biggest downfall is that it was $94 before tip for the two of us to eat there. That's an expensive soup and salad!

Pros:

Gorgeous inside, service was wonderful, castmembers are awesome

Cons:

Too expensive for what it is, bland food

Was really looking forward to this meal - we opted for the prix fixe for both of us, and both of us left almost our entire meal on the plate. The steak tasted like canned dog food, and the chocolate "mousse" was dense to the point of being difficult to eat. Even the bread was hard and stale. I hope it was an off day, but we won't be going again to find out.

Pros:

server was very friendly and pleasant

Cons:

food

French food is my favorite type of cuisine and since I know of Epcot is said to have some of the best food in the World Showcase, I was looking forward to having some of the best French food ever. Not the case. I used to love going to The Au Petite Cafe in the France pavilion as a kid but this was nothing like it. Basic French faire that was nothing to write home about. Would just stick with the bakery next time.

Pros:

Nice atmosphere. Good service.

Cons:

Basic menu. Bland flavors.

I had my birthday dinner here and it was okay. The restaurant is a bustling cafe with the tables very close to one another. It feels like they try to fit as many people as they can in the restaurant. Our server was very pleasant and efficient. You receive complimentary baguette and butter to start your meal. For appetizers we tried the lobster bisque and French onion soup. Both were fine. For entrees my boyfriend ordered the steak frites and I ordered the beef bourguignon. My boyfriend enjoyed his entree. It came with a lot of fries! The beef bourguignon was very tender but lacked flavor. I typically never salt and pepper my food but this needed it. It was so much better once seasoned. For dessert we enjoyed the sorbet and the creme brûlée. Both were good. Since it was my birthday they brought out my dessert with a birthday candle and sang to me. It was a nice gesture. I didn't love this meal but it wasn't bad either.

Pros:

Beautiful cafe atmosphere, good service, large portions

Cons:

Food could be better

Having been to Paris I can\\'t say I\\'m much surprised by the food quality in this pavilion. Like Paris, the only really good food comes from the bakery. Chefs de France is a pretty place but not one of the restaurants you\\'re going to walk into and be overwhelmed by. The food is absolutely disappointing IMO. I ordered the short ribs over noodles and it tasted IDENTICAL to a Lean Cuisine that I\\'ve had a million times in my lifetime! It was so bad that I couldn\\'t even finish it. The one good thing I tried was the lobster bisque. I wish I had just had a big bowl of that instead of what I would call and amuse bouche due to the tiny size. My Dad enjoyed his salmon though. On another visit I had the ham and cheese crepe and it was also disgusting. Two times was enough for me when there are so many better options in this park. Food at any given restaurant was surprisingly very bad in Paris and we probably have eaten in at least 7 or 8 different ones, so I would say that Chef\\'s is on par with the real deal. Skip this one and go for Rose and Crown or Garden Grill if you want more than the novelty of eating in France.

Pros:

Pretty restaurant

Cons:

Extremely tasteless food that will remind you of Clark Griswold\\'s experience in Paris.

We ate here during the week of April 22, 2019. We had first eaten here two years ago, hadn't been thrilled with the food, but wanted to try it again. Unfortunately, the experience had not improved. The tables are very close together and so if someone is seated next to your party, there is no privacy. Our waiter was not at all friendly. My mother had the French Onion soup, which she disliked. My daughter and I had the macaroni and cheese, which was average. We didn't stay for dessert because we just wanted to get out of there. For an expensive meal at Disney, I was surprised at both the service and the flavors. Next time we all agreed we'd rather go to Via Napoli for pizza!

Pros:

We had an ADR and were seated on time.

Cons:

Too loud, tables too close together, food not very flavorful

We really wanted to love this place, but found the food just average. We had the Candlelight Processional Dinner Package in 12/18 and I looked at list showing this was 1 table service credit on Meal Plan and was told it was 1 by others, but my fault, I did not read fine print for Dinner Package and it was actually 2 meal credits! We would not have been really satisfied with 1 credit, let alone 2!We even asked when server took our order and he said appetizers were included, why since this 1 credit and he just said No, they are included! We just thought maybe they were here. He never said 2 credits...not that it mattered at that point..we were there. Server did not come back to refill our drinks, meal took awhile to come out. Food much better at Rose and Crown, Le Cellier, even Biergarten.

Pros:

Nice setting.

Cons:

Not good enough as far as we are concerned. Tight setting.
