My family of 4 had dinner here last week. The food was very good and a nice selection as well. The characters: Minnie, Mickey, Daisey and Donald Duck came round to take pictures and their Christmas outfits were really nice. But there seemed to be no pattern to how they toured the dining areas. It was a long time to wait for them all to come around. It was our last thing planned for the day so we didn't mind waiting as it gave us a chance to relax. At the front of the restaurant Santa Goofy posed with a photopass photographer to take pictures as well. We opted to get ours pics with Goofy till the end. There was a good selection and everyone was able to find enough to eat to fill them up, a tall order with 2 teen boys and hungry DH. I loved the meatballs, green beans, salmon and the desserts are the mini ones all very good!
Pros:
Great way to celebrate holidays, the characters were wonderful and really interacted with us, good food and great desserts!Cons:
Expensive, chaotic and spent alot of time waiting for characters to make it us.Reviewed by Jason V Review Date: 09/29/2018

It's cool the see the characters in seasonal outfits. Similar to the Disney Junior, that's what you are here for. The buffet has a large selection but the food isn't that great. If you care about seeing some main Disney Characters in X-Mas outfits than this is worth it.
Pros:
Meet and greet with main Disney Characters in X-Mas outfits, larger of the buffet selectionsCons:

We had a great experience here in December. We did have to wait awhile to be seated, but that was fine. We were seated in a corner by the window, and this was truly fantastic because it felt secluded and less chaotic. The characters in their Christmas outfits were so fun. We had amazing interactions with Daisy and Donald especially. I don’t eat buffets very much, so I was worried about the food, but it was incredible!! I am a pescetarian, and I really appreciated all the delicious salad and veggie choices. I thought the salmon was absolutely delicious, better than I had at CRT a couple days later! We really had a great time here with the characters and the food.
Pros:
Special holiday outfits for characters and great interaction, delicious buffet foodCons:

Our family had dinner here with Minnie and friends. The characters came around in a reasonable time that you were able to get dinner and eat, but not have to hang around and wait on characters. Although it was a huge buffet, the food was pretty good. There was a carving station with beef and turkey. The salad could have used some freshening up. The kids loved the variety of desserts. We were on the dining plan, but if paying cash the costs seem very expensive for the meal. I guess you are paying for the character interaction?
Pros:
variety of food, character interactionCons:

We attended when the characters were dressed for Halloween. They were all really great and clearly having a good time entertaining everyone. Donald ad Mickey ended up being right next to each other and did some high fives and then waltzed together. So funny.
Food was really good. They made my son his own plate because he has Celiac, which was just great. Really made him feel special as opposed to having nothing fun to eat.
The only drawback is that the place is NOISY!! I spent a lot of time with our neighbors rear end in my face because she was so intent on taking pictures that she was oblivious to everyone around her. That happens sometimes, but kind of takes away from the experience. If you are OK with the noise, the characters are worth it and the food is good.

Ate here week of Dec 13 to 18. We changed one of our other reservations so that we could eat here for the Holiday Dinner with Minnie. Food was fine and must say a huge thank you to Chef Angel for his help with our 2 1/2 year old granddaughters food allergy. The gluten free mac and cheese was a big hit. This meal was ok and glad we did it once - we were to eat here again but decided to eat elsewhere.

Had dinner here with DH and DS aged 8 on 2/21. We were taken right on time for our reservation. Rolls and salads were pretty standard. They allowed my son to order something that wasn't on the menu (chicken tenders and fries) as he is pretty picky and he enjoyed every bite. I had the mac and cheese with shrimp and it was delicious. My husband had the beef tenderloin and declared it the best thing he ate all week. It was our second day here, but still. The waitress brought him a second plate since that is the beauty of this place and he finished all of hat too. For dessert DS had the ice cream sundae with DH and I had the smores pie. No complaints all around. Character interaction from a distance was great, Pluto especially had some great dance moves and when I told Minnie I loved her dress she blew me a kiss.
Pros:
food, character interactionCons:

Overall the food was good! We liked the character interactions. Wish the cost was a little less. You are definitely paying for the characters.
Pros:
Loved the characters! My son played peek-a-boo with Pluto and had so much fun.Cons:

We dined at HW&V on Christmas Day 2020 and it was absolutely fantastic. There were several Prix fix meals to choose from and all 4 of us tried something different. The service was right on point. We had dine at HW&V in Oct 19 when it was still a buffet - it was okay, but not great. KUDOs to HW&V for making our family Christmas a little more special🎄
