This was our first time and won't be our last! Service and food were outstanding. Ah, the cheese board! Remy came out too! Forgot about this feature and was pleasantly surprised. Our server was polite and friendly. He was very attentive to us.

Room could have been cleaned up better. Glass doors were dirty. Floor not vacuumed properly. Bathroom floor not cleaned every day. Fruit flies on food in concierge. Told CM and they said they knew of it. We were in main building. That was nice because of not leaving building to get on monorail when it was raining to get to other resorts on monorail.
Pros:
on monorailCons:

Waited for table even though there were empty tables, was told that I had to move my own chair to table so there were 5 seats. Table set for 5. Pancakes dry and burned on bottom. No refills at our table, but waitress asked table next to us if they wanted refills and they got them. Never again will I go there. Used to be a favorite!

All the food was really good. We bowled while we ate...tip..do not order the nachos while bowling! Another tip..unless you have to, do not preschedule bowling. It was sooo expensive and the place was dead when we were there. Was no reason to reserve a spot. This may be different other times, but I think I would walk around and wait as opposed to paying the premium. Food was really good as I said, so looking forward to coming back.

This was very good. Everyone liked their food (we really liked the chips and 3 dips...salsa was really good). Not sure that the beer was the coldest in the world, but not bad. Will be back.

Just not the same anymore. I had iced tea and my son had a strawberry smoothie and a cookie. Tea and cookie were fine. The smoothie tasted like banana, although there is no banana smoothie on the menu (or strawberry banana). I really miss the Disney treats including the cinnamon roll. The lack of seating is a drawback as well. Will probably stop for coffee in the future, but it just lacks the Disney magic.

The third time we have visited Chefs de France and it never disappoints. Daughter (15) had the French onion soup which she said was amazing. I usually go for the Duck but decided on the scallop and shrimp in lemon broth this time around and it was a great choice. The lemon flavour was a little like lemongrass which gave the dish a Thai feel without the heat - I would recommend this highly. DD had beef rib which she said just melted in her mouth, DS (12) and DW had beef in peppercorn sauce which they both loved. Desserts were good ( fruit sorbet, profiteroles, strawberry cake) but it is the entrees that make this place so good. This place remains in top 5 of my favourite Disney restaurants and is fantastic value on the Dining Plan.

We used magical express in June 2013. Generally it was hassle free and a great way to get to and from the airport. The only trouble we had was with the delivery of our bags upon our arrival. We checked into the resort about 6pm and it was after 10pm when we finally received the bags. We had been told they would be delivered within 3 hours and it was more than 4 hours for us. It didn't greatly affect our trip, but it did slow down the settling in on our first night.
Pros:
Hassle free transportationCons:

We had a group of twelve in June 2013. The food was good and plentiful. The service was average Disney service, but didn't blow me away. The performers were great. Although it wasn't major, the improv ability based on the audience was perfect. Our group ranged in age from 2 to 70+ and everyone enjoyed the show.
The photopass photographer's camera wasn't working before our show, but they did invite us back after the show. We were able to get our picture within 15 minutes of it being taken.
Pros:
Enjoyable family showCons:

We stayed here for 6 nights in June 2013. We had three different rooms for our travel group. We all had lake view, but we could all see Magic Kingdom from our balconies. The rooms were clean, fresh and looked well maintained. The CMs were friendly and helpful.
I didn't love sharing a bus with Polynesian and Grand Floridian. We had a few wheelchairs in our travel party and because of the bus sharing, we had to wait for another bus when there was generally room on the bus for some of our party, but not for those in wheelchairs.
