Ok this has just opened and we expected some sort of line to get in at luch, but 1 hour was a lot. The issue here is how you order. If you are on CC or Disney charge you have to do it yourself on touch screens that are not always the easiest to use. So my guess is many people have trouble with this. Given the backup to order and then the high availabilty of table I would guess this is the choke point.
After you get though this the dining area is great, we would have liked the west wing but that was packed. They need more tables in there. They bring food to your table and generally the food is good. Had the Tuna Nicolese salad but for 14 only had 4 small tuna pieces. Overall for 4 we spent like $78 for lunch!
Until they work some bugs out you may want to avoid this. We dined at 11 and the line was very long to get in, 1 hour. In the summer in 90+ degrees we would have said no way.
The themeing is great here both inside and out!

Food is good and plenty of seating. If you eat upstairs you can get out of the crowds. Its a good change from burgers.

Good themed area and service was quick. We always eat here and try to get a seat near windows to see Star Wars show. The food choices are good and standard fare for Disney. The quality is good so you can always find something to eat.

Ate here again over February break right at 11 so no lines. The chicken meal is why we eat here. That is always good and plenty of food. Burger I had was dry and not very hot. Its good when not crowded so you can get a table outside easily.

Ate here over February break for a diner. Had not eaten here for a while and found new menu to be good. The flat bread were good as well as the sandwiches. While it would be nice to have pizza for the kids this was a good change from burgers. We ate near diner time and it was not crowded. Got a table outside and was able to relax. Overall it was good experience and a change of pace.

I enjoyed this dinner show more than any other dinner show I have seen. The costuming, singing and dancing were outstanding. I did laugh out loud at the jokes! The food was very good, and plentiful. The bottomless Sangria made the show even more enjoyable. We were able to make reservations for the later show the day of the performance.
Pros:
Fun, interactive entertainment while enjoying delicious foodCons:

We stayed in the Finding Nemo section for the last 2 nights of our 12 day vacation. It is absolutely rich in Disney themeing....just beautiful. The size of the suites with two bathrooms was wonderful! The resort is new, but I did notice the furniture is already starting to show wear and tear. The light paint colors will make it hard to cover up for long. I must admit we were not crazy about the choices at the food court. We stayed at POFQ the first 10 nights and the selection and taste was so much better. The bus was quick and frequent. I would not stay if I had to stay in the Little Mermaid section...it is sooooo far away. If a family can afford, this is an fun choice!

We visited in early November with 80 degree weather. The water was plenty warm. We arrived at opening, and were able to ride every slide with zero wait. The Pina Coladas are excellent. We spent an hour just enjoying the looong lazy river.

All members of my family got spaghetti with meatballs. It was good enough. We had the gellato, chocolate cheesecake, and the chocolate cake for desert. They were all good enough. I know by reading the description of this restaurant that part of the "fun" is supposed to be nagging mothers as your servers. Didn't see any of those. Did have a waiter who was good at his job but I really don't like having waiters who act as though they are doing me a favor to be there. Not sure whether it was arrogance or boredom or the theme or the restaurant, but a friendly waiter goes a long way. Having said that...on a 6 day trip, will this be one of the places we eat...yes. It is crowd pleasing, decent food with good unfriendly service! LOL!
