We really enjoyed this restaurant, it is quite dark and tables are very close together. That being said, eating by the volcano is very cool.
My advice would be not to fill up on the tortilla chips and leave room for dinner. We had fish fish tacos and the steak with cheese enchilada. My kids had chicken tacos and everything was really tasty.
Our server was very nice, however he really messed up our dining credits. We found servers were having a hard time adjusting to the new payment system. Our server ended up charging us 5 Adult credits and 3 Kids credits, instead of 2 and 2. We didn't notice right away and ended up having to get the concierge at our resort to fix this mistake.

We had a great dinner here. We all enjoyed the meal and the chef's preparation was a lot of fun to watch. My oldest daughter wanted steak, but it wasn't listed on the kid's menu, I asked the server and the server said that they did have a kid's steak dinner, for $23. I was happy I wasn't going to have to share my steak ;o)
I would highly recommend Teppan Edo as one of the best dinners we had on our 10 day vacation.

We ate here for lunch and really enjoyed our meal. Service was great. After a terrible Italian meal at Mama Melrose, this was great. My daughter ordered spaghetti 3 times our trip, Mama Melrose, Wolfgang Puck and this was the only place that got it right.
The pizza was fantastic and we were able to split the ingredients on each half so everyone was happy. I would definitely come back again.
We paid out of pocket for this meal, and it was very expensive for lunch. Next time we'd do dinner on the Dining Plan here instead.

We decided to eat here because of the Fantasmic seating, which was excellent and we didn't have to wait too long for Fantasmic to begin.
The service was painfully slow. The food was pretty bad too. It looked like it should taste good, but it was pretty disappointing. I don't know if we'd go back, even though the Fantasmic seating was very convenient, which is the only reason I didn't give Mama Melrose a failing grade. Without the Fantasmic package, it would have been more like a 2/10.
My daughters spaghetti was plain, no sauce at all. The chicken was dry and inedible. The pizza was poor and lacked flavour. The penne a la vodka didn't taste very good either. Really disappointing dinner.

Our server was very nice, however, after ordering our appetizers, we waited...and waited...until finally our entrees arrived. The problem was, we never got our appetizers. We were told that they would make us fresh entrees, but by the time they arrived 20 minutes later, it was clear they were the same entrees that had been put under a heat lamp. My daughter's entree was cold and the rest tasted like they'd been sitting around. That being said, the appetizers were delicious, wonton soup, wings and potstickers were excellent. Next time, I think we'd skip the entrees all together and just have some appetizers.

Our family of 3 have used the DDP on our visits in 2011 and 2013, and while it works for our family, I can definitely see where it won't for other families- it all depends on your appetite, your food and restaurant preferences, and if don't mind taking time away from the parks,especially at dinner time. To optimize the value, we order the most expensive entrees available that we like, along with the desserts, at dinner and we make our reservations at places we probably wouldn't eat at if we weren't on the dining plan [we always put Hollywood & Vine and the Crystal Palace on our to-do list because we love these buffets!]. We do the same at lunch time for our Q/S meals, but instead of having desserts most of the time we get extra bottles of water to take with us in the parks. We are coming back in 2014 and if we can't fit our trip around a free dining plan offer, we won't hesitate to use the plan again. A quick note on tipping from my perspective - I don't have an issue with a 18-20% tip for good service, and with 1 exception,we have had very good servers, and they have made our WDW trips even more enjoyable.

First time ever here and I loved it. I saw that on our next visit we get to rent out space to have a better chance of shade. It was nice to see that there is a actual area where you sit and watch the daring climb up to Summit Plummit and come down screaming...:D good times!!!!!

This was one of the most expensive dinners we had but oh so worth it. First of all the dress code, we knew about it but others coming in to dine did not, I feel as thou they cheapened the whole experience by walking in with sport shorts, t-shirts and flip flops. Now back to the dinner...multiple ways on getting to the resort we chose to take the bus from our resort to the Hollywood Studios and riding the Ferry over to the resort. Very nice ride in the evening, enjoyed the night lights from Disney's Board Walk resort, Swan and Dolphin resorts as well. Our server Rocky was awesome! The wait was long due to my husband ordering the 28oz porter house which was delicious. I had the NY steak with ratatoullie side and baked potatoe...OMG!!! We ordered the sample of the different cheeses, you have to try it!!!! Its hard to explain but its an experience all in its own. AMAZING! 😀

Awesome location, multiple options on how to get there we chose a boat. Very nice during the evening you get to see the fire works from the MK while waiting at the docks. The resort is full of amazing carvings all around, giving you the feeling of being warm and cozy. The service from Loopy Lisa was amazing she had us cracking up the whole time. She made everyone's night making this dinner one of our favorites. The food was amazing so delicious cooked to perfection. A must for anyone not afraid to be the center of attention!!! 😀

Character breakfast where characters come to you for photos and autographs. Selection of food was good. Service was good. Atmosphere was loud with characters and kids and monorail.
