This a fun place to grab a quick bite. The portions are generous and the service is fast. My wife and I had the chile dogs with an order of fries and they were quite good. My DD had the barbeque slaw dog and fries. My DS ordered the sausage and fries. We all had sodas to drink. The bill came to about $70, making it the cheapest lunch of our trip. There was ample seating available with a choice of many tables. The CM who took our order was very friendly and our food came fast. This is a great place to relax and enjoy a quick lunch.

Husband and I stayed here in a preferred room in Martinique from 3/18 - 3/27. This isn't our first stay here, actually probably our 7th or 8th. There are many reasons we keep returning. We have Never had any problems with room cleanliness. Mousekeeping always is super. During this latest stay we came back to our room early in the afternoon one day and found a staff member cleaning out the air conditioner vents with Clorox. That's how clean it was. Grounds are gorgeous, cast members are terrific, and we always feel home away from home. The walks to the food court aren't that bad, even from the far reaches of the pirate rooms. Yes, they take some time, but not more than 5 or 6 min. We regularly walk around the lake for exercise so we have traveled to all areas of the resort. We will always return here and feel this resort is sometimes unfairly judged because of it's large size. The only thing we would change is installing queen beds in all the rooms, and during this last visit we learned that that may indeed happen in the near future. Give it a try, you'll love it as we do.

This was our first time staying in a Disney resort, let me tell you, it will never be forgotten.
From the moment we stepped on the property to the moment we left was amazing!!! We were pleasantly surprised when we arrived at 1130am our room was ready. The rooms were a bit small, but we managed. Every one of the staff of friendly and knowledgeable.
Even though we were further from all the parks and other resorts, it was great. The resort felt sucluted and tropical, it also never felt busy or overwhelming. The resort was our tranquility from the busi ness of the parks and Disney experience. We actually did spend a lot of time there, it was absolutely perfect. WE WILL BE BACK!!! 🙂

This place is a classic and a must for every visit. Our great waitress was from the Yukon and she told us all about that area. We knew going in that it may be a little pricy for lunch, but when you are on vacation you should enjoy yourself. For appetizers I ordered the pork belly and found it to be the best ever. My wife tried the seared scallops and really thought they were delicious. My DD had the roasted oysters, which are her favorite and she loved them. My DD tried the Caesar salad and thought it was great. For the entrée we all ordered the ribeyes. What a treat. They were done to perfection and I did not need a knife to cut mine. The quality of the steak can not be beat. we ordered sides of crab pasta, two orders of lobster poutine, and brussel sprouts. This really complemented the lunch. For desert we had the pineapple sorbet, a lemon curd torte, and two citrus olive oil cakes. In addition we had a few Labatt Blues to enjoy. The total bill came to $450 counting the $75.00 tip. It was well worth it for a relaxing lunch in a beautiful setting. This is a definite repeat lunch and worth every penny.

My family thought we would try Tony's for lunch since my DD loves Lady and the Tramp. This place is a dining gem. My wife and had the mozzarella tomato salad and we thought it was excellent. My DD and DS each ordered the calamari and were not disappointed. The portions were generous for the price. My DD had the multi grain pasta and liked it a lot. My DS ordered the shrimp scampi and said it would have been better with a little more garlic. However, he said it was a winner that he would order again. My wife and I both had the chicken parm. We agreed that this was one of the best renditions of this Italian classic that we have ever had. The chicken was very moist and the sauce had to be from a secret recipe. During our meal we tried the cappuccinos and in our opinion, they were as good as it gets. This lunch with tip was With am little over twenty percent tip, which our attentive waitress truly earned, the bill came to $200. Not bad for a great lunch in an enjoyable themed setting. We will return.

I don't often eat hotdogs, and this was a Disney treat for me. luv the larger seating area, and grand found us a table outside.

—Review of Liberty Tree Tavern Lunch

Family had one of the best lunches of the week at the Liberty Tree. My wife and I had the Pilgrim's feast and it lived up to its name. This was one of the best turkey dinners that I can remember. The gravy was absolutely perfect and the stuffing was to die for. My wife could not believe the large portion of turkey that came with the meal. It almost makes you want to spend Thanksgiving at the Liberty Tree instead of having it at home. Our DD tried the pasta dish and really enjoyed it. Our DS had the pot roast and said he would definitely have it again on the next trip. For appetizers we shared the lobster dip, clam chowder, and the fried. cheese. We were in the Paul Revere room and the décor was astounding. Our DD and DS had the Patriot's punch and really liked it. We had two apple wood cakes and the toffee cake for desert. Total lunch bill was $175 with tip. It was well worth it. The waiter was very friendly and checked on us often. He recommended the deserts to try and we were glad he did. We definitely will be back as this has become one of our favorite MK lunch spots.

The night we chose to go to Big River it was drizzling and cool outside. We requested a table inside and were seated immediately. The temperature inside was colder than out on the boardwalk. We did not wish to shiver through our meal and got up from the table to tell the hostess that it was too cold inside. She made no effort to look into it and seemed fine with the fact that we were leaving. We decided that if this was the way they served us before even ordering, that it probably wasn't going to get any better.
As a result, I can not comment on the food or drinks only the lack of interest in guests' concerns exhibited by the staff.
Pros:

Our stay at the Boardwalk Villas (4/12 to 4/19) was excellent! We had a one bedroom that was clean and comfortable and you can not beat a boardwalk view!
The staff here is friendly and helpful. Our magic bands were a pleasant surprise too. No more fumbling around in bags or pockets to look for your key/card.
I do wish there were some different choices in restaurants but perhaps that will happen in the near future. ESPN is our go to place for good food and a fun atmosphere.

This was our second time using Garden Grocer and we were very happy with their service again. It is a pleasure to know that your order is exactly as requested and kept cold by bell services. Produce was as good as what I would have chosen myself. Nice way to save on the cost of water and beer or wine too.
