Review of Walt Disney World Minnie Van Service

Took the Minnie Van from the Boardwalk Villas to Saratoga Springs for dinner at the Turf Club and did not want to leave an hour early to bus to Disney Springs and then catch a boat (if boat was running with thunder storms about). We don't do taxi rides anywhere and had never done Lyft. It was very easy with communication and payment through the cell phone app. Reply from Minnie Van gave a van number for our ride to make it easy to be sure we were getting into the right van. Van was there within about 5 minutes of our request. Cast Member was very pleasant and chatted. She did share that the service is popular and that they are expanding. It was a treat to have excellent door to door service in an time effective and comfortable manner.
Pros:
Easy and on timeCons:

I have been here 2 times and both times I had the steak and it is amazing. The wife has had the seafood pasta dish and said it was also very good. The desserts are delicious and the Grey Stuff is a must try. We were able to get a bottle of wine for a very reasonable price (for Disney) for about $35 for house white. We will attempt to go here every trip.

Kona has been a mainstay during our visits for years but this year (August 2017) was disappointing. The menu listed for Kona on AllEars is for December 2016 but that has changed and not, in my family's opinion, for the better. Sushi selections have been cut by more than half, entrée selections have been reduced as well and the steamed pork buns - a favorite appetizer - have exited the menu. Among some items we ordered were the California roll (ate half; not tasty), Asian Pasta Shrimp (half eaten; again, not tasty and a bit overcooked) and the steak (reduced portion for the amount paid). Additionally, the restaurant was fairly empty at 6:00 which we have never experienced in prior visits. We liked dining at Kona rather than Ohana because of the more selective menu. I'm afraid future visits are probably in jeopardy. Do not know what happened there but my family was very disappointed.

We got a beautiful table by the window to celebrate my 60th birthday! Husband started with Onion soup, which he loved and then we both had the Lasagnes de legumes, that was delicious. A crew of cast members sang Happy Birthday in French to me over fabulous desserts. A very special meal.

AKL is an amazing resort! As soon as we arrive, we feel as though we are in a very special place. The decor & atmosphere is incredible. There is nothing like watching animals from your private balcony enjoying your morning coffee. Onsite restaurants Boma & Jiko are delicious. AKL is the only resort for us!

What a perfect place to have my 60th birthday dinner! The ambiance is just gorgeous. My husband & I both had the Layered Ratatouille which was delicious...followed by great desert too! Loved meeting the Beast after dinner.
