'Ohana is now one of my favorite character meals at Disney World. Great service, great food, and great character interaction. My only down side was the food took longer to come to us than other tables that seated after us.
Pros:
Great food, great view, great character interactionCons:

Waiting area gets crowded but crowds are managed well. We were given at ticket at check in to greet Pluto in the lobby. The line was long and we were called to our table but we were able to meet Pluto on the way out. Breakfast starts with sweet bread and fruit brought to your table. Beverages are served. Then a family style platter with Mickey or Stitch waffles, eggs, potatoes, sausage and bacon is served. Our server was very attentive and brought us a new tray and then just additional waffles. The character interaction is great and the parade is fun for little ones.
Pros:
Great food served family style so you aren't waiting in a buffet line. Great character interaction. Beautiful hotel.Cons:

This is a great breakfast with beautiful views and the big cheese!! The food is family style so you don’t have to worry about missing any characters while at a buffet. There is plenty of food and they will bring you all you want! The servers here are great and there are also mickey waffles!
Pros:
Get to meet characters, get a wonderful view of magic kingdom, food comes to you at your table!Cons:

Our favorite character meal! Stitch no longer goes around to the tables and instead has a meet & greet out in front. You check in, get in line for your photo with Stitch, and by the time you're done with him your table is ready. I found this to be very smooth. The food and service are always great. The food is fresh and delicious, the service is all about 'Ohana. And the juice. If you've been there, you know. If not, don't skip the juice.

We arrived at our home resort Poly on 9/21. We had ressies at 9:55am at Ohana since our flight didn't arrive until 745am. We went to check in and dropped our bags at Bell svcs and went upstairs to check in. There was a line wrapped all around the top floor almost to Kona Cafe to get in line to get a pic of Stitch. I have read on line that he no longer goes around at breakfast. You stand in line get a pic then check in for meal. We waited over 30 min. Then you felt rushed. He did sign autograph books as I also read that Disney was doing away with that and giving you a signed card. Didn't see that anywhere. After getting pic we went to be seated. It was our luck that the characters had just finished being in our area and was starting over again at the other side of the restaurant. Our waiter came and stared to bring food. He never asked what we wanted to drink. My husband asked twice for a bloody mary and did finally get it but we were just about done eating. The juice they serve is sweet and my kids didn't like it but I know others do. They would have preferred water or soft drinks which wasn't offered. The food was ok. The pineapple bread was sweet and no one liked except for myself. The biscuits were hard like they had been under a heat lamp too long and the eggs were runny. Family liked the ham, sausage and fruit. They brought out cupcakes for anniversary and ds bday. We did this since our flight was so early in am and we wanted to eat before going over to Epcot for the day. Also my daughter wanted to get Lilo autograph. We had been done eating and waited for the characters to come and finally after about an hour they all came at once and wanted to get a group pic instead of individual. I wasn't happy with that at all. My dd9 did get a pic with Lilo and as long as she was happy I was ok. This will probably be a one and done with us. We are DVC & AP members and visit frequently and like so many other places for the quality of food. Visit here if you need to see Lilo because she isn't found anywhere else. *** My husband LOVED LOVED his Bloody Mary and oderes these drinks everywhere and he said this was the BEST ever!!!! He ordered it extra spicy.

Meeting Lilo, stitchCons:

The food was fairly basic, nothing special. Scrambled eggs, Mickey Waffles, microwave bacon, sausage, and potatoes.
We all enjoyed the fruit platter and the bread. Juice and Coffee were also excellent. We were not really worried about seeing the characters, but there were a few tables around us that had young kids that did not get to have the character interactions that I'm sure they were expecting. We saw Pluto, and that was it. We used our dining plan, but the price seemed a little steep for a basic meal and hit or miss with the characters. Our server was very nice.
Pros:
fresh fruit, good coffee and juiceCons:

This was our first time for breakfast at O'Hana. We enjoyed the food. It is nice that the food is served to you (rather than a buffet) - much easier to be available for the characters to come around. Service was good. You can have as much food as you like. Only negative was we had to wait quite a while for our table which forced our whole meal to be rushed as we had a plane to catch! This was our longest wait with an ADR for a table all week. Also, I felt like the characters were not as interactive with the guests as they are at other locations.

Being someone that is not a big fan of buffets, I love that this is a family style offering. We had a great breakfast in December 2016. The bacon, sausage and fresh fruit is excellent. I love the variety of selections they bring you. The Stitch Juice is so delicious!
Pros:
Family style, Stitch juice, great character interactionCons:

My family of 6 had breakfast here on July 2nd. We had 830 am reservations and were seated right away.
To be honest, I was NOT looking forward to this meal. We have done this character meal a few times before, and I always walked away feeling unsatisfied. The food just seemed blah. The only reason I agreed to it, was because my ADULT children begged me to make reservations...Well, let me say...this meal was AWESOME!!! I am so happy we gave it another try.
We have always enjoyed the character part of the meal, but as I said earlier, the food just wasn't that great. The food this time was absolutely perfect. The bacon was crispy, the waffles were plentiful (both Mickey and Stitch), the juice was chilled nicely, the scrambled eggs were yummy, the bread was super sweet, and the sausage and potatoes were cooked just right. Oh, and the fresh fruit was great too.
Again, so glad we gave Ohana's another try. The service we received was very good. The food was the best we have ever had and the characters were a lot of fun!!!
