The Lady & The Tramp theme here made this a must try experience. Everything about the restaurant fits right in with the movie. Great selection of food & desserts. I had a regular pizza. My mother had the trio which she thinks was better than the lasagna from Via Napoli earlier in the trip and my husband ordered none other than the spaghetti and meatballs. The fountain/statue in the middle of the dining room really brings the whole atmosphere together. Everything about this experience was great. We will definitely keep this on our list of places to visit again.
Pros:
Cute dining room with great themeCons:

After eating here on our honeymoon my husband talked about nothing but the turkey baguette for a year and half until we returned for our next visit. Both my husband and I ate the baguette sandwich and it was as great as we remembered. My mom ate the braise pork and was surprised by the large portion size. We sampled the master's cupcake, the strawberry cream cheese cupcake, and a chocolate cream puff for dessert. Obviously the master's cupcake was by far the best. The vanilla sponge on the strawberry cupcake was delicious as well. With 3 separate dining rooms to choose from and the quick service I have to agree with anyone who dines here, it is a MUST!
Pros:
Tableservice style at QS price, excellent food, beautiful architectureCons:

Our experience is what you would expect from any Rainforest Cafe. Regular food and environment that makes rainforest popular. The service was pretty slow. We didn't get sat until 30 minutes after our reservation. The food was good though. I ordered the taste the rainforest and was very pleased. The blackened tilapia was some of the best I have had. The dynamite shrimp & scallops tasted delicious. The cheese sauce was not overpowering as some have stated. My mom ordered the Mojo ribs and was pleased. My husband ate the 44 Farms burger. I would recommend this location to a family as the atmosphere is definitely kid-friendly but I wouldn't make any immediate plans after dinner because the slowness of service could definitely throw a wrench at any schedule.
Pros:

We chose this restaurant to experience the great food from Yak & Yeti without having to use a tableservice credit. My mom and I both had the beef teriyaki and my husband ordered the honey chicken. The beef was better than the chicken but everything was great. The sauce wasn't over powering and the portions were big. Only thing I would have changed would be being able to eat indoors.
Pros:
Great food at QS priceCons:

My husband wanted to eat here because the bloggers for star wars always talk about this place. We ate here for lunch on our last day before we left for the airport. I got the buffalo wrap. My husband got the holiday sandwich and my mom at the thai chicken wrap. None of us really liked our food or were that impressed. My mom had to stake out a table while we waited in line otherwise we would have had to eat outside. The line moved pretty fast here but thats about the only positive thing that comes to mind
Pros:

We booked here during the free dining promotion (we actually selected this hotel prior to the promotion and then modified our package.) We chose to stay in the 90's sections as it was the only building that the remodels were complete it. The rooms were nice and new but very far from the lobby/pool. It took about 10 minutes to walk anywhere. Of the 3 pools that are on property there only one was open late enough when we got back so we really got to experience the hippy dippy pool since the others were closed. Aside from being far away the hotel itself was nice and definitely worth the value we paid. I was a little disappointed that we never received the birthday wake up call I scheduled for my mom but I guess not everything can go as planned. Overall, i would definitely recommend this resort especially durning free dining season.
Pros:
Remodeled rooms, quiet for being a value resortCons:

We decided a week before our trip that we wanted to attend the Halloween party. I was really sold on the exclusive merchandise, food, and entertainment. I wish we would have been able to enter the park at 4pm instead of 7pm so we would have had more time but we were able to see both the Hocus Pocus performance and the Hallowishes fireworks. I tried the candy corn soft serve ice cream and it was great. Not overly sweet. We would definitely do this again and can't wait for the chance to do a Christmas party.
Pros:
Exclusive merchandise & dessertsCons:

We used snack credits here after our lengthy days in the park. The food wasn't the greatest and the lines were long. I'm talking like standing in line for food for over 45 minutes long. Aside from convenience, I wouldn't rate there dining hall very high.
Pros:
Open lateCons:

My husband and I loved the carriage ride we took through POR on our honeymoon last year so we took another one with my mom on our arrival evening. Rookie the horse was very well trained and gave a smooth ride. I would definitely suggest this to anyone looking for a little extra magic at a great price. Our driver even let us take pictures right next to Rookie.
Pros:

Let me start by saying that this is an interactive dining experience. People who are shy or have language barriers might not enjoy this. Sarcasm and dry humor don't really translate if you're not used to American lingo. Our server even caught us off guard and we were slightly expecting the interactions beforehand. We were sat pretty quickly considering how full the lobby was. My husband ordered the fried chicken and even the waiter was shocked that he ate it alone. it's definitely big enough for two people. I ordered the stuff pork and wasn't that impressed. I expected it to be stuffed better rather that what felt like two pieces with filling in between them. My mom ordered the sample platter and was very happy with it. I did like that you could order a milkshake as you drink on the dining plan as well as order a dessert. We had the apple crisp, peanut butter cake, and chocolate brownie all of which were great. I would suggest this place to a family looking for fun and interactive experiences.
