We enjoyed lunch here in January. Our burgers were good, the refillable drinks and cheesecake desert made the stop worth it, though. Would stop again for these reasons.

We have been here twice, last time in January 2013. Probably our favorite restaurant, but we love Italian. Everything here is good, the pizza...wow it is one of a kind good. The zeppole are mouthwatering just thinking of them...served with some warm chocolate sauce and whipped cream. Kids loved the food, too. We had a great waitress, service was very good, I never had to ask for a refill.

We tried this based on previous reviews. The food was really good. We had shrimp, chicken and fish. The apple dessert was excellent. We found a table upstairs and it was nice to have some quiet space in the MK. That was good for our foster kids. Our advice for busy, hyperactive children is to find places like this before going back to the stimulating fun!

We enjoyed our dinner. The wait was long, a few minutes after reservation, but we never felt rushed when inside. This was our foster kids pick for dinner, they loved the food prep in front of them. The food was great and fresh. Very nice to meet new friends at our table. Just a nice evening.

After 10 plus visits to this resort, it never disappoints Our favorite of all the moderates. Beautiful and comfortable. Great quiet pools and places to take long walks.
Pros:
We stayed at POR in an Alligatorr Bayou room ( building 14 thank you very much) in early February. This was probably our 10th visit to this our favorite resort. We loved the fresh updates in the rooms .. we had a king We also were able to request anCons:
Although we loved the new room decor I was missing the hook on the back of the bathroom door that has been removed and the drawer space seems to be less than ususal which was ok for just the two of us but may be a problem for a family of four or fiveReview of Pop Century Resort (Value Resort)

I was a little nervous staying here at a value resort. We've been to Caribbean Beach, Wilderness Lodge and Polynesian. We enjoyed this resort so much. This was a trip with our foster children, they just loved the pool in January. The resort is just so colorful and fun! The bus service was not only excellent, we met so many nice families, it was really good socialization for our kids. I would wholeheartedly recommend this resort to families looking for all the perks of staying at a Disney Resort. The only negative was a girls sports group of some kind, they were a little loud, especially in the food court, but nothing that we were bothered by too much.
Pros:
colorful and fun, bus serviceCons:

We had dinner here the first day at Disney. The problem we had was our reservation was just too late for our first day. The kids were tired after the excitement of the airport and the first day at Disney. I really enjoyed the food, the service was a little slow...we waited a while for our drinks. The characters were great and the kids enjoyed the children's buffet.
Pros:
characters, kids foodCons:

The sandwiches here are the best. We ate here late January and the line was long but moved quick. Just would like to see more seating in the restaurants. But people were happy to share their table with strangers.

What a great service. We did not have a car, but this service allowed us to get snacks and beverages in the room at a much cheaper cost than @ the parks.
Pros:

We stayed in a preferred room in Martinique for 4 nights. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained. Our room was very clean, and upon request, mousekeeping left my children little towel animals. The poolside entertainment and games were great along with the evening camp fires and movies. The main feature pool was down for a day and a half but the staff went out of their way to get it fixed and opened as soon as possible. The beaches are so relaxing and offer the kids a chance to play in the sand. The main feature pool area has a play area for tots, a great pool with slides and 2 jacuzzis for the older kids. The only downside of the resort is the food court. Even with a preferred room, it was quite a walk to refill our drink mugs. And, the food court is broken down into different ordering areas (burgers, pizzas, sandwiches, healthy options). So, one family may have to go stand in line in 2 or 3 places to get food for each family member, then stand in yet another line to pay. Very inconvenient method and the food quality was not that good at all. Bus service was prompt and friendly.
