We had a party of 13 eating dinner here on a very very busy day at the parks. We waited about 30 minutes past our reservation time to be seated. When we were seated, 6 of us were in one table, and 7 in another table in the same room. About 15 minutes after being seated and having given our orders, the party right next to one table left, so we asked the staff if we could take their table so as to have our whole group seated together. They agreed and happily cleared the table so that we could all sit together.
The kids didn't want to try the stuff on the adult menu, and they were too old for the kids menu, so they asked for adult-sized portions of kid entrees. No problem! The kids spaghetti had a chicken breast too, so we asked for the chicken to be on the side. No problem there either. They were very accommodating to my picky eaters, so that was really nice.
The coffee was great. They give you a little mini-carafe for refills, and if you want, they will refill that mini-carafe too. I actually liked the coffee too, so I had about 4 cups. So did my husband, my mom, and my sister. The wait staff was great at keeping drinks refilled and what not.
The food for adults was good. I had the Monte Cristo. It was HUGE. I could only finish about 1/3 of it, so the rest I gave away and the kids ate it as sort of a side dish. I can't remember what others in my party had, except for some french onion soup which was good, but no one really complained about the food and I think it was all OK.
All in all, a nice restaurant with good service once you get seated.
Pros:
Large portions, Flexible menu, Quick service, Coffee Refills!Cons:
long wait for a large party even with reservationsReviewed by jandg4816 Review Date: 05/28/2013

We had dinner here on May 5, 2013. We had reservations and we were seated very quickly. We sat indoors, which was nice since it was chilly. We started with the pommes frites, which were delicious. Me and my mom spit the Monte Cristo (plenty for two) and it was great. My husband had the salmon sandwich and the french onion soup, he loved the soup, but the sandwich was just ok. Our five year old had the mac and cheese and he loved it. Dessert was disappointing,the mickey mouse beignets were super cute but didn't taste very good. Overall we had a good meal.
Pros:
most of food greatCons:
beignets not greatReviewed by stephieb64 Review Date: 04/10/2013

Traditionally, my husband and I eat in the Blue Bayou restaurant every time we visit Disneyland. Thanks to the All Ears team, I was able to scout the menus and prices before arriving this time. The prices at Blue Bayou were staggering, to say the least. We opted, instead, to eat at Café Orleans and were extremely pleased. We started with the pommes frites which were outstanding, I could have eaten them everyday of the trip! I had the seafood herb crepes which were delicious and jam-packed with shrimp, scallops and Mahi-Mahi. My husband had the Monte Cristo sandwich which costs TWICE AS MUCH (!) at BB, he described it as a sandwich inside a donut and didn't leave a crumb. My oldest daughter had the Mardi Gras chicken sandwich. The kitchen did not blacken the chicken as we asked and it was perfect. We made reservations about a month in advance and our table was ready when we arrived. Our server was not very attentive, but did get our order right.
