DH and I grabbed afternoon snacks here on April 22nd - I had the "Troll Horn" (I believe it used to be the cloudberry horn), and he had the Schoolbread. No line of people, but even on this moderately warm day, the building was uncomfortably stuffy and warm. The treats were worth it though. I loved the troll horn - just the right amount of sweetness, and DH said the schoolbread was very good (his first time trying it).
Pros:

—Review of 50's Prime Time Cafe Lunch/Dinner

We (DH and I) ate lunch at the 50's Prime Time on April 24th. I had the fried chicken, and DH had meatloaf. We both cleaned our plates, but it took a huge effort - the fried chicken plate is especially large. Our CM wasn't particularly into his role, but that was fine with us. Just enough to make us feel like he was playing the part, but not enough to be uncomfortable or annoying. We also shared the Boston Parfait for dessert - so delicious, but a bit much after the sizeable entrees.
Pros:
Portion Size, AmbienceCons:

We (DH and I) ate lunch at Flame Tree BBQ on April 22nd - AK's 15th anniversary! We were headed to Epcot, and so we chose to split a chicken/ribs plate so that we could snack in the World Showcase that afternoon. The BBQ was amazing - tender meat and flavorful sauces. Coleslaw and beans were pretty run-of-the-mill. The only negative was that the best seating locations (overlooking the water/Everest) were already taken, or full of people saving seats for others.
Pros:
Tasty Food, Quick LineCons:

We stayed at the AoA, Little Mermaid rooms from April 21-28. I was a little apprehensive since I read so many posts about how far the walk to the building was, but I have to say that I am shocked that so many people complained! We stayed in building 9 (even got a free upgrade to a King bed for our anniversary), and we had no issue with the walk. Walking to the buses in the morning is easy, using the sidewalk on the outside of the buildings. This was especially convenient because they set up a breakfast cart by the Flippin' Fins pool every morning with grab-and-go items, so we didn't have to deal with the crowds at Landscape of Flavors. In the evening when we returned home, we'd take our time and stroll through the paths through the buildings, take pictures with the statues, and enjoy the atmosphere. We never had a problem with sound even though we faced the pool, and the room was always very clean with fresh towels and more shampoo/soap than we could possibly use.
The only con I could pick out is that the buses seemed to always be remarkably crowded (and slow in loading) after the large nighttime events. All of the other resorts would empty their lines, and AoA would still have 3 or 4 bus-loads of people waiting to get picked up. Don't know if this was some sort of anomaly - the rest of our busing was convenient and timely.

This use to be a great place for a light meal but the food has been downgraded. I second the previous review on the Nachos but feel they were too kind. They are now served in a plastic container, paper on the bottom and about 50% smaller serving (same price), it was a real disappointment. They also used to have some nice pastries and this visit they had only one and the server did not know what the filling was.

This restaurant is lovely, having photos taken with Belle is great.
The food is OK it just wasn't very hot. The waitress never removed a single plate from the table. I'm sorry but the food should be hot and servers should serve.
Pros:
Lots of princesses, includes a photoCons:

We were a little nervous to try but we gave it a shot we were at universal studios all day and left late so I knew boma was open until 9:30 we had no reservations but I called the restaurant at 9:15 and asked them if we could still come in they said no problem take your time and we will see you when you get here. WOW was I pleasently surprised with the food everyone left stuffed the food was good and please save room for dessert because I could go back for those alone. Every single staff member was so nice from our waiter Jeff to the chefs I will make this a must do on our next trip.

Went to Chef mickey 3 times on our last trip maybe because we are on the dining plan cost does not matter we loved it and I thought the pancakes are very good and the blintzes are very good to my kids are always begging to go back. Characters never rush their visits and always are funny. We never have had to wait long before sitting I feel Chef Mickey is a great Character choice and I feel food was very good.
