We had the pleasure of staying from 5/30-4/6, I had checked-in online so I could request the Grandstand area since this is first on the bus stops. Staying at Grandstand, we were close by to a smaller pool which was not busy and nice because no chaos. We where traveling with friends and had the 2 bedroom Villa that fit the 8 of us very well. Having onsite laundry made the packing easier.

4/3 was our Second trip here and loved it, we had a party of 8 and had reservations for 4:45. Showed up at 4:30 and was sat before our time which was nice. 5 Adults had the steak and the 3 kids had Hotdogs and shakes. Other than the waiter, we had a great time, I really don't like being called Daddio which I heard about 100 times.

Ate here on 3/30. This was our first dinner of our vacation and I was not expecting amazing food because I have really never been to a buffet that has blown me away. This was picked just for the kids to see the Characters. I was surprised the food was hot and very good, the beef at the slicing station was awesome and cooked just the way I like it. Only problem was we arrived about 15 minutes early for our reservation and YES I do understand everyone needs to be there to be seated however they passed over us because we had a 6 year old that had to go to the bathroom so her mom and her were inside the bathroom in the restaurant but they passed over us because not all 8 where ready to be sat. So I suggest everyone holds it or go before you get there. Wait was attentive however took for ever with the bill.

No better place to have Easter Dinner. 2nd trip here, the 1st was about 15 years ago and was everything I remember and more. The wait staff was amazing along with the food. I could go on forever about Artist Point, I have had some people say they wouldn't eat there since it is 2 sit downs on the dining plan. Well, they are really missing out.

Ate here on 4/1, party of 8 with 4:30 reservations arrived 15 minutes early and was sat before 4:30. I was a little worried about this reservation but I was out numbered in picking someplace else. I have been reading reviews and was not expecting much however we had a very nice dinner with a great waiter. One of the kids ordered the Mac & Cheese and was not happy with it and they offered to bring her something else out without us even asking for it.

This is one of the restaurants that we always eat at. I will say that the selection was not as plentiful that I am used to here. However, everything we had to choose from was very good. I can say our table of 8 did a serious job on the Crab Legs. What I love about Cape May is that after you are done eating, taking a stroll along the Boardwalk is very relaxing then walking into the back of Epcot and catching Illuminations.

We went to breakfast at Chef Mickey's to celebrate my son's birthday on our last trip. There were a number of items to choose from including the standards (eggs, bacon, etc) as well as Mickey waffles (caramel sauce on the side), cheese blintzes, breakfast pizza, cheesy potatoes, and quiches. The fruit selection was good also. The food was okay in quality but could be better- eggs were very runny and almost watery in the buffet line and the pancakes were rubbery. It's true that sitting on a buffet affects food but those eggs were awful looking. Crystal Palace has far better food for breakfast.
On the plus side the characters and server were fanstastic. Each character came around and gave the children special attention. Minnie went out of her way to be gentle and not scare the baby. All posed for a number of pictures. Our server was quick, efficient, and kept us posted about which characters were on their way. She also brought a cupcake for my son's birthday.

First time eating here and was very happy. FYI to people using the dining plan, the dining plan doesn't decipher between kids or adults so when you are using the QS, kids can order off any menu.

We've dined at Boma and Jiko and love both. Sanaa is every bit as good! My only caution is that, if you don't like spicy/hot food, ask your server to point you in a milder direction. I had the durban spice shrimp and it was almost too spicy hot for me and I love heat in my food. It was delicious, but one degree more heat and it would have been too much. So, steer clear of durban spice if you don't like heat. Husband had tandoori lamb and it was excellent too. For dessert we split a banana kulfi (sort of ice cream) and I could have eaten about three all by myself it was so good. I have only one complaint (or I would have rated it a 10), there is a bread service on the menu, 5 different naan breads and 5 sauces for $10. I assumed (wrongly) that it you didn't order the bread service, you'd at least get a roll, small piece of naan or some sort of bread with the meal. Nope, no bread.
Pros:
The food is outstanding; so is the view of the animalsCons:
Believe them if they say something is spicy! No bread unless you order the $10 bread service.Review of The Wave Lunch/Dinner

We went to the Wave for dinner on Easter Sunday and enjoyed it very much. The restaurant is pretty and we were immediately seated after check-in. The server was quick to come over and take our order, and gave us the bread right away. The bread with the pink sea salt butter is great, especially the multi-grain. My entree, the filet over lobster mash, was delicious and cooked perfectly medium rare. The lobster mash had nice chunks of lobster in it. The dessert, Creamy Indulgence, was also good and it was nice to have a sample of everything. Others who had the fish and steak enjoyed their entrees too. The only complaint was about the service. The server kept putting things down in front of our 1 year old who immediately grabbed everything. That's dangerous when it is knives, hot plates, etc. There was room to put things elsewhere. The service was ok otherwise. Would return if staying at Bay Lake again.
