We were able to make a same-day lunch reservation at Brown Derby. It turned out to be the best meal of our entire trip. The Cobb Salad gets all the attention here, but there are incredible dishes across the menu. Give yourself plenty of time to linger and enjoy the food and soak in the classic Hollywood atmosphere.

Pros:

*Delicious food *Great service *Classic Hollywood vibe

Cons:

None

We really enjoyed our dinner at the Brown Derby. We both had the filet mignon and ordered the crispy potato cakes. My husband also ordered the scallops for his appetizer. We enjoyed everything. Our steaks were cooked perfectly, and the bread and butter with brown salt was very yummy. Our server did disappear for 15-20 minutes after we finished our dinner so it was awhile before we were able to pay and leave. While we did have a good time and are glad we were able to snag a reservation here, I'm not sure it's a must do for us for return visits.

Pros:

Good food

Cons:

Service lacked once entrees were served

We ate here on October first. We were seated very close to our reservation time. We were seated at a small table in the back of the restaurant. It kind of felt like sitting in the corner out of view from everything but we enjoyed the privacy very much. I enjoyed the anniversary filet with Walt’s hash. It was cooked perfectly and very delicious. My wife ordered the Ora salmon and loved it. We actually requested the recipe from the waitress for the salmon but haven’t received it yet. The bread service is very good, the Himalayan salted butter makes it even better. We ordered a potato cake enhancement. The were good but too small for what you pay. We will skip those in the future.

Pros:

Food

Cons:

It can be a little pricey

This restaurant was sooo good. I had the famous Cobb salad, and my husband had the burger for lunch. I could have eaten 2 of those salads if my stomach could have fit them. The Cobb was seriously the best salad I've ever eaten. Our server was amazing, and this lunch was a wonderful break from the hustle and bustle of Hollywood studios.

Pros:

Delicious food!

Cons:

Can be expensive (but worth it!)

This is, by far, the best place to eat in Hollywood Studios in terms of food! The food I had here was cooked to order & tasted fantastic! Our server was awesome & the atmosphere felt a little fancy, but still relaxed. I’d definitely go back!

Pros:

Best food in the park

Cons:

A little on the pricey side

I dined alone here and had a lovely experience. I had the heirloom tomato and burrata starter. The portion was very large, and the tomatoes were fresh and flavorful. I ordered the filet mignon for my main. The steak was cooked PERFECTLY, and the accompaniments were lovely. I also had a flight of martinis. They were sublime.

Pros:

Perfectly cooked steak!

Cons:

None

Went here on my honeymoon and it was alright. The food was good but I can’t even remember what we got. Nothing fancy and nothing that brings you back. However our server did give us special seating to Fantasmic.

Pros:

Prime Fantasmic seating

Cons:

Nothing special

Wow what a great experience! From the staff, to the quality, presentation and quantity of the food to the ambiance this was one of our favorite meals at WDW. We loved the creative and scrumptious charcuterie board as our starter. I got the famous Cobb salad, hubs got chicken a la king and son a burger. Everything was served promptly, hot/cold and sodas were refilled often. Would definitely return.

Pros:

Tasty, timely, a little fancy but not change-your-clothes-fancy, and a beautiful break from the hurriedness and heat. Seriously get the charcuterie board!

Cons:

If I had to do it over, I’d ask for the salad dressing on the side. It was a little much for my taste.

I tried to get reservations at other restaurants in Hollywood Studios, but I’m glad we were “stuck” with this one. The food, service, and atmosphere. It was certainly worth the cost to enjoy the pampering and food at this restaurant.

Pros:

Great food, great service, relaxing

Cons:

None!
