We stayed one night in a deluxe studio room in Jambo House on September 19, 2014. Our room had a great pool view. Our room was very clean and comfortable. The bed was a little harder than my wife would have liked, but I thought it was fine. Our daughter stayed on the sofa bed which she said was OK for one night.
The resort is themed with an incredible eye for detail. Every aspect of the resort reflects the “African†theme. The lobby is very inviting and quite large. We wished we’d had more time to explore the resort so we plan on returning for a longer stay in the future.
Pros:
Great Theme, Clean, Friendly StaffCons:

The F&W festival may pull in $$$$ for Disney, but we will, from now on, vacation well around this event. We were there the week of 9/18 (soft opening day) to 9/24. We were at EPCOT three of those days. By nightfall, drunken rude people were everywhere. Lines for everything were ridiculous. We tried to eat as we walked and were bumped so many times, we spilled stuff on ourselves. We stopped to pick up our mess and were trampled. Had to watch where you stepped from others messes. Wall to wall people and all this to sample a few food items from the norm...totally not worth it. Was NOT a place I would want to take my family. Or friends. If this was our first experience with EPCOT, we might never return. Thankfully, we know the difference. 53 days of stumbling drunkeness...so we really need to have it be that long ? Go find a bar somewhere and settle in folks.

If I weren't blind, I'm sure my rating would be much different, or cast members more helpful. Being unable to see the mickey head, thank goodness my mother was there because almost all the cast members just stood there uselessly, most not even saying a word. If I were alone, I'd have to align the Mickey heads by trial and error I guess.

This place seems to get so many good reviews and the wait is always so long. It was very hard for us to get into this place, but thankfully we were finally able to eat here the last day of our 11 day trip.
We had a reservation for 7pm, but didnt get seated until 745pm! 45 mins late! Unacceptable!! The inside castle was amazing. The main dining which is where we were was gorgeous and we loved that the Beast came out a few times while we had our dinner. The food.... well.... I was expecting a lot more (taste wise). We got a French Onion soup and a salad to start. The soup was delicious, but the salad was average. We then ordered the steak dinner. For the price, I would think it would be "melt in your mouth" steak. It was dry & tough. I ordered mine medium, and it came to me well done! Not good at all! The fries and veggies that came on the side were pretty good though! We ended the meal with a strawberry cupcake and the grey stuff. The cupcake was soo good!! The grey stuff, which EVERYONE talks about, was completely not worth it. The grey stuff (which was tasteless grey whipped cream) was on top of a brownie/cookie thing. Was disappointed in this place and will not return.

Loved this place. The only thing I have every got to eat here (which is every single time I visit Disney), is the Nachos! So filling (easily split between 2 people), and very tasty. We tried the little churros with the Caramel dip and they were outstanding. We love this little place. We just wish there was more seating. We tend to have to sit inside every time because the outside seating is always taken.

We loved this place the couple times we went. The pizza was delicious and filling, and the salad was great as well. I had the veggie lasagna and it was soooo good. The desserts were superb! Not a place to pass on when visiting Epcot!

This is true Italy! Food was great, especially the desserts. We have had sandwiches, appetizers, coffees and desserts here, a lot, and it always delivers. Service is amazing as well; very welcoming place to go.

Wow! The desserts here are amazing!! From the Elephant Ears (my favorite) to the Neapolitan, this place can't make bad desserts! The only thing we did not enjoy was the sandwiches. They were not tasty and they sat in a case pre-made all day. Definitely recommend the desserts!!!

We have been to this restaurant a lot, but the couple trips we took we decided to skip it. The atmosphere is great, and the experience of sitting in an old car in a drive-in theater was pretty cool. The food was the downside for us. During previous trips, we have had pretty much the whole menu, and we were not satisfied with anything. We found out about this restaurant from other Disney Traveler friends who loved this restaurant, but it just wasn't a restaurant we would return to eat.

We were looking for a good quick service that had a variety of foods. We came across this restaurant. The food was really good. I had the Fried Shrimp platter which was outstanding and my traveling partner had the Asian Salad which was excellent. The seating was plentiful, inside and outside. We would go here again!
