My friend and I ate here for lunch around 1pm on 3/20. Obviously this is prime lunch time. The lines were moving pretty quickly, but then there was some confusion with the family ahead of us at the register and a manager had to come over, so that slowed things down. We did finally find a table directly in the sun and then had to hunt down chairs-not an ideal situation.

The food is very good and portions are large. My friend and I each got the Honey Chicken. While I miss the "takeout" containers they used to serve the entrees in, the new dishes are definitely easier to eat out of. They have one of my favorite desserts here, the banana pudding, which was great as always.

Pros:

Banana pudding! Huge portions

Cons:

Very crowded and hard to find a seat

I ate here for lunch with friends on 1/11 during our day at Animal Kingdom. We chose it because we were tired of normal park food and wanted something different. I was skeptical because I am very fussy. I ordered the teriyaki bowl and it was delish!! My friends loved their wrap and salad as well. I would eat here again for sure.

Pros:

different food choices,

Cons:

This was our first time and it was great! Top 2 counter service for our trip 12/3-12/14. We had the DP. We got 1 mandarin salad, 3 beef lomein and 2 fried rice, and 2 banana and 2 chocolate. instead of getting a meal for DS9 he asked for fried rice which was a snack credit and it was plenty for his hungry appetite. It was larger than a pint but smalled than a quart. It was chicken fried rice but really barely any chicken at all in it which was fine for him as he usually doesn't eat that much meat. My parent's also used a snack credit for the fried rice with their meals and it was a ton. The lomein came ina quart container but wasn't filled to the top like if you went to a Chinese take out but there was still plenty and no one went away hungry. they even had low sodium soysauce offered. We will definintely go back next trip the flavor was great and the portion filled everyone and it was a great value on the plan and decent value if paying cash. No complaints and the birds were about equal to or a little less than flame tree. there is less seating but still was fine. We will definitely go back!

Pros:

portions

Very good food, all of us (9 on dinning plan) had the orange chicken and banana pudding. Was pleasantly surprised the chicken came with some veggies, and the pudding was awesome, very light. No one, except DS17 finished all their food (but this kid could finish a buffet).

Pros:

Good Food, Big Protions

Cons:

Eating outside

Good American style Asian food. Lots of seating. Decent portions for price.

Got up to get utensils and condiments and when we got back after a few seconds when saw a duck had jumped up on the table and flipped my daughters chicken fingers on the ground and other ducks made off with them. I assumed i was SOL but the cast member where i obtained our food from replaced the order without hesitation.

Pros:

Tasty food

Cons:

Wildlife surrounding tables

We ate here for lunch on June 4th. We were on the dining plan. The portions were huge, enough to share. Our party had the sweet and sour chicken, the honey chicken, the beef lo mein and a child's chicken tenders. Food was served in take out boxes and it was hot and fresh tasting. For dessert there was a YUMMY chocolate mousse and a frozen lemonade. We would eat here again. The reason for the 9 is that seating is all out door and the birds kept staring at us.

Pros:

Large portions

Cons:

We ate at Yak & Yeti counter service twice. Recommend the sweet & sour chicken. Large portions, flavorful. Nice switch from counter service burgers. Hard to find a table though ...

Pros:

Great Portions

Cons:

Crowded Seating Area

Great place to stop and have a quick snack. I haven't eaten a meal here but have stopped by to sit down for a few minutes and have a couple of eggrolls or fried rice and a cold beverage. Its great when the side window is open so you don't have to wait in the regular line for a cold beer (and you can get eggrolls there too). The theming of the seating area is cool also, with the fountain in the center and overall asian vibe.

Pros:

Quick snacks that isn't typical theme park fare, great vibes and the lines aren't usually too long.

Cons:

Limited shade in the seating area. Most seats are in the sun and like the rest of AK, there isn't much of a breeze

We actually prefer to eat here instead of in the Yak & Yeti sit down restaurant. Especially since our kids are older than 9 now but are very picky eaters. So they can still get something off of the "kids" menu that they will actually eat. We've had many dishes from this quick service and all have been very good.

Pros:

Good variety that even a picky eater will like

Cons:

None

We got Lettuce cups to share and the coconut shrimp as a side, it was ok. We were a party of 7, everybody liked what they ordered, but it didn't live up to all the hype. It is just "pretty good". I don't think I would go out of my way to go back, I would try another restaurant.

Pros:

Service was good

Cons:

Not all it's hyped up to be.
