Ohana's has always been our favorite restaurant. You never walk away hungry. But now they no longer cook on the hickory fired grills. As a result the food isn't as tasty.
Pros:
You get lots of food. The noodles are great. The desert can't be beat.Cons:
Food is now cooked using gas grills.Review of Enchanted Tiki Room

I agree with Molly about the tiki room in it history and what it represents in the development of other attractions. Always enjoyable to me.
Pros:
Entertaining, upbeat and corny funny.also a good way to get a nice break from the heat and chance to relax from all the walking.Cons:

This is the best restaurant in Magic Kingdom.
Pros:
Excellent theming for die hard Disney Parks fans, the most adventurous menu in the park.Cons:
Not great for picky adult eaters. The kids menu always has something for a picky eater, but the only boring adult meal here is the chicken option. But isn’t this the place to be adventurous? In Adventureland?!Review of Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue

I will never visit Disney World without participating with the My Disney Experience. It was easy to use, it helped me keep in track of my dining reservations, fast passes and it simply allowed my family to enjoy our time together.
Pros:
Time saved at the park allowed me to get my fast passes and dining reservationCons:

My wife and I stayed for a week in late November and just loved this resort! It was our first time at AKL and would gladly stay there again. The lobby is amazing, as is all the attention to detail. We had a newly refurbished room and Disney must have addressed the poor lighting that others have commented in their reviews because the bathroom and bedroom were very well lit, and there were plenty of USB outlets to charge everything. The decor was more Lion King than the African Savannah feel (with mosquito netting over the beds). The floors were wood laminate and the beds were new and comfortable. We were also able to put our suitcases under the beds, so that saved us room. There were only 2 of us on this trip, but I could see that a family of four might have an issue with dresser drawer space. We were supposed to have a standard view, but we could look to the left of our balcony and saw plenty of animals. I would not pay the extra for the view because there are so many places around the resort to view the animals. If you are in the parks after breakfast until after dark, you won't see the animals anyway.
Mousekeeping always did a good job on the room and everyone in the AKL very nice and helpful. The food options are really good. Most days, we had a quick service breakfast at the Mara. (Their sweet treats are quite amazing, too. I loved the peanut butter brownie.) We ate at Boma, twice, and loved it. We were concerned about too much spice and flavor with the food, but this was a non-issue due to plenty of options on the buffet. There was refurbishment going on inside and on the exterior of the resort, but this was a minor inconvenience for what the resort offered. The only thing to keep in mind is that you have to take a bus everywhere. They generally ran on time and efficiently, but they get so crowded that the 20 minute ride to a park seems longer.
All in all, I would greatly recommend this resort and would love to stay there again.

It was my first ever Disney trip and I made sure to plan everything to a T. Art of Animation was a part of my master plan and I truly loved it there. Upon arrival, they upgraded my room to a Cars Suite and I thought the room and area of the resort were adorable! The staff were always extremely courteous and helpful and made sure that my family's stay was amazing. Everything was always clean and neat and the food in the cafeteria was good as well. The Skyliner made transportation to Epcot and Hollywood Studios a breeze. Art of ANimation was so nice that it made me wonder how great could the other resorts outside of the value category could possibly be.
Pros:
Clean, Great Staff, Adorable Themes, New TransportationCons:
I couldn't tell you any!Review of Spice Road Table
Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 01/15/2020

I have an adventurous palate; my wife, not so much. I chose Spice Road Table against my wife's wishes, anyway. We chose the brie and baguette appetizer. We enjoyed it but it seemed odd they would bring a large portion of brie with 4 slices of baguette. We had to ask for more, or have 3/4s of the brie left.
My wife, predictably, chose the beef and chicken skewers. She loved the beef but noted the chicken was too spicy for her. It was some type of curry and I was surprised she like it. The beef came with a very ,large serving of what I can only describe as a pesto dip. Seems odd there was so much of this dip and so little baguette.
I had the lamb sliders with hummus fries. I REALLY enjoyed the fries. Very crispy outside and warm, soft inside. I'd certainly like these again. The sliders were tasty, moist, and cooked perfectly. Maybe just a little too much bread.
