Ate here for dinner 2 nights in a row on Re-Opening Weekend, 7/11 and 7/12. It's just ok. Food was fairly bland. The gnocchi was funky and way too dense. Had great service both nights.

Pros:

Service, convenient if staying at the Contemporary

Cons:

Bland food, boring menu

Farm to table to the menu changes often. Easy to get to from MK for a break or if you are on the Monorail Resort loop. Food has been excellent on all our visits.

Pros:

Farm to table food Changing options Location is nice

Cons:

Location can be a problem Your favorite item might disappear

This sort of out-of-the-way spot is off most people's radars. But it is a solid player, and offers a good menu prepared by a skilled kitchen. The wait time for your dinner to arrive can be longer during busy periods, but the results will be worth it. They put real attention into most of their plates. Besides, the bread basket will keep you entertained for a while anyway - it's really good, for bread.
The markdown for me is due to the fact that the last two times we were there, our waiter/waitress disappeared on us and we had to wait a while for service.

Pros:

Strong menu, strong kitchen Always available even without reservations Monorail access from/to Magic Kingdom Atmosphere is lively but not frenetic

Cons:

Service has been spotty Pace can be slower than might be ideal

We had an advanced dining reservation for dinner at the wave. Service and food were excellent. The filet was cooked to perfection, and everyone was happy with their order. A stand out for us was the service and consideration offered by our server Ron from Utah. When one of our party had an allergy concern, she was not simply guided away from options containing that item. They changed a dish that she had wanted to suit her needs, and did so happily. We have always been offered an allergy friendly menu at Disney Resorts, but never been able to order anything and have it tailor made. This went above and beyond any restaurant accommodations at Disney including any from a signature resort. The wine list was extensive, food was beautifully prepared and dessert was excellent.

Pros:

Service oriented restaurant, excellent quality food, easy to get to, great location

Cons:

None, but be advised of low lighting in the waiting area. Just something we need to work with due to a visual impairment in our party.

We came here based on a recommendation. I felt the menu was a little limited but had a chicken, beef, seafood, pork and vegetarian option. My husband ordered the scallops. There were 4 of them. If we had known the portions would be so small, we would have ordered a salad ahead of time.

Pros:

Easy to get a reservation. Our server was great and gave honest recommendations.

Cons:

Small portions.

We had a great meal here! With only two of us, we were able to get into lunch without reservations. I have many food limitations, and Chef Baker came out to work with me on creating a meal I would truly enjoy. He worked with me to find things to put ON my plate, rather than just what has to come OFF. My husband and I both enjoyed our burgers, and the iced tea was delicious and our glasses were always full. I'd come back here in a heartbeat.

Pros:

Service; food; volume; availability

Cons:

None I can think of

Went for dinner with family and the restaurant manager recognized me from previous visits. The Chef came out to talk to a family member in our party who has celiac disease and was able to accommodate her dietary request.



Good bread service multigrain bun cut into slices, gluten free rolls available and served hot with butter with sea salt.


The gnocchi was cooked perfectly, held its shape, nicely seasoned with sweet potatoes, onions, mushrooms in a cream sauce. Just the right potion size, perfect potion of sauce with none left over when finished your dish.


Forest Mushrooms, Sweet Potatoes, Rainbow Swiss Chard, Brown Butter-Parmesan-Sage Cream


Desert was the seasonal flight a assortment of 3 deserts, a cheesecake with berries, a berry cobbler and strawberry shortcake.


overall a 7/10 good food and glad to see Chef Kim again.

Pros:

good atmosphere, friendly staff, chefs visit

Cons:

N/A

Pros:
