We hit this place up every time we go to Disney. Even took my very picky mother on our last trip and she loved it (plenty different types of foods). Can be a little loud but not overwhelming. Love this restaurant!!

Hands down my favorite place now! We visited 1/6/13 for the 1st time. Arrived about 15 mins b4 our ADR and only had to wait about 5 mins b4 we were seated. I ordered the seared miso salmon and it was amazing!!! Hubby got the bourbon chicken and liked it too. We were on the dining plan so we each got the fried pineapple wontons. Fabulous! Our best dessert of the whole trip. Kids ordered chicken strips, nothing too exciting there. Server was great and we left STUFFED! Would DEFINITELY recommend trying it out. We will be going back!

2nd time we've been here. Good food, good portions, good service. Maybe it was a little early, but it didn't seem like the servers were "playing their parts" like b4. Our server especially. Hubby got the meat loaf and loved it. I got the fried chicken which was pretty good. We both got the Boston Cream Parfait and it was pretty good. My son loved making his own sundae. Hubby also got a Mowie Wowie and it was great. We'll probably go back again.

Eh. Pretty much the best way to describe it. The Scotch Eggs were pretty good. Hubby ordered the fish and chips and I ordered the ploughman's lunch so we could trade off and sample both. I thought the fish was ok, nothing to write home about. the ploughman's lunch was an over priced cold cut platter. Smallest servings of all of the restaurants. I had the jaffa tarts and wasn't impressed. Hubby ordered queen's cake and said it was good. Kids ordered fish and chips and meaty macaroni. Those came w/soup or salad. They didn't want either but ordered the soup. It was some sort of roasted squash and I really liked it, no one else did. Servers were very nice. We might try it again someday, but order different things. Lots of other places to chose from 1st

2nd time eating here. Dogs and fries were very good but the buns were just too big!! Especially for our kids. Easiest way to eat the chili cheese dog is with a knife and fork lol. The worst part is trying to find a place to sit. Very cramped and very busy!!! We would eat here again though, just not late in the day when all we want to do is sit down.

We ended up here b/c we had one more meal's worth of table services left b4 the end of our trip. We booked dinner, gave our card, and thought we would be good to go. I thought this was a good place to eat. Then I read the reviews and my heart sunk. Since we were less than 24 hours out, if we canceled, we would be charged a fee. So, we decided to go w/it but didn't expect much. We are so glad we kept those ADR's!!!! This place was GREAT! I don't know where all those bad reviews have come from. Our server was fantastic, the food was always fresh, hot, and available. Lots of choices and lots of flavor. Nothing too spicey, nothing too tough. Just really really good food. We must have gotten lucky on this one lol! All of the characters came by but my kids weren't really into them. They did do a conga line thru w/the kids and everyone enjoyed that. Hubby and I would probably come back even w/o the kids!

We loved this place. Service was wonderful, drinks were refilled asap, and food was great. I ordered the pot roast which was awesome! Hubby got the lamb stew. He thought it was alright, but would have preferred something else. It was also a small serving. He ended up finishing my pot roast and son's mac n cheese. Ordered mozz sticks for app and they were just standard. Desserts were great. Hubby got the toffee cake and loved it. I ordered strawberry rhubarb cobbler and loved it as well. Kids' mac n cheese was good. Would definitely eat here again!!!

Stopped in for a quick meal. Hubby got the steak and pork platter. He thought it was good and filling. It came w/corn bread instead of corn on the cob, but the bread was really good. I got the taco salad. It seemed on the small side but good. The only downside is the dessert menu. Might stop back in sometime.

We won't be back. We got there early (which was our fault) but still waited 25 mins past our ADR time b4 we got a table. We had the opposite experience here than what some people have had. Our server never came back. We waited forever for the next round of food to come and for drinks to be refilled. Overheard someone complaining to the manager about the same thing but at least we eventually got our food, they didn't. Service was ridiculously SLOWWWWWW! In our opinion this place is way over rated. 1/2 the food was really good, the other 1/2 was alright but not worth the price or the head ache. When our server was at our table he was nice. They played games w/the kids but mine weren't interested in playing--they were too hungry and tired of waiting for food. In defense of the restaurant, the other person complaining to the manager said this is the 1st time service has been so awful and he has eaten there b4. At least we were on the dining plan so that took a little bit of the sting out of this bad experience.

OK. Evidently there are two Wolfgang Puck Expresses - one in West Side, one in Marketplace. Unfortunately we ate at the West Side. On the plus side, servings were big and the service was great. I managed to drop two of our desserts (didn't open, just a little messy) and the server brought us out two more. I don't know what was going on, but when we were there they didn't have a full menu. We should have gotten the pizza I guess. All we could choose from was 4 cold sandwiches, salads, and mac n cheese. We should have listened to the reviews and avoided the pasta. Hubby got the adult mac n cheese and our kids got the kids' mac n cheese. None of them liked it. My kids would live on mac n cheese if I would let them. They ate maybe 1/3 of their plates and said it wasn't any good. I got the rotisserie chicken club but it didn't come w/any chips. It was good and filling but just a typical deli type sandwich. For dessert we could chose from cookies, brownies, carrot cake, or key lime pie. We picked the carrot cake and key lime pie. One carrot cake went to waste b/c no one liked it (and carrot cake is one of my fave desserts). Key lime pie was ok. Hopefully all of these good reviews are for the Marketplace location, b/c the one in West Side isn't deserving of any good review. I wish I would have realized there were two different ones b4 we ate. No wonder I was confused. Oh well, maybe next time. GO TO THE WOLFGANG PUCK EXPRESS IN MARKETPLACE!!!!
