I am surprised by some of the negative reviews. Our server was friendly, polite, and helpful. He made excellent recommendations for wine pairings and brought a small free sample for my wife to try. She was very impressed with the chicken Parmesan. I had the beef bolognese and it was fork tender. We'd split a caprese salad and both felt the heirloom tomatoes were super fresh and delicious. We will definitely eat here again. The pizza delivered to the next table looked great. My only negative was that even with reservations we waited 20 minutes.

i love that i can plan ahead i look at calenders as soon as they come out and i plan what parks i want to be in now i can also get fast passes for the rides i really want before i even leave home awesome!!
at the park one morning i arrived for magic hours and had already riden all the rides on my plan before they where scheduled so i changed my passes to another park while still in animal kingdom.
not only that i didn't have to worry about losing paper tickets which is great because i lose everything almost as soon as i get it.

We just returned from another great time at Port Orleans Riverside. It is such a pretty resort. We were in Building 17 near a pool and the walk from the food court was not bad. We also had a shortcut to the South bus depot which was great. The food in the food court was again very good for the price. This was our 10th time at POR and it is like our home away from home. We really enjoyed using our Magicbands to open our rooms, much easier than getting a keycard out each time, also great getting into the parks. We are looking forward to our next visit to Disneyworld and POR.
Pros:
A great resortCons:

This is the restaurant we take adult visitors to, since the menu is varied enough that those with limited tastes or allergies can always find something they like. The wine selections, including by-the-glass, are quite good. (Try the Vouvray!) Lobster bisque and baked chicken this time, both correctly done and delicious. Excellent server who was tolerant of my shaky attempts at French. After several years of visiting here, we can say the quality remains consistently high.
Pros:
Fairly authentic French cuisineCons:

We decided to give the restaurant a second chance since dining here a few years back. At that time, we had to wait almost two hours beyond our reservation time to be seated and only got in then because many waiting ahead of us decided to leave to catch the fireworks show. It was fun walking out of the darkened and empty park well after closing, though. But I digress. This time we were seated at about our reserved dinner time. We had a table on the second level with a good view of the windows. Pre-dinner drinks were excellent and the server visited frequently to top up water and bread. Entrees were the mahi and the lobster manicotti, which were both very nice. Particularly good sauce on the mahi. We are not DDP users, so we generally skip the desserts and appetizers. All in all, a very fine experience.
Pros:
Well prepared, tasty foodCons:

My husband and I ate lunch here on March 22. This was our second time eating here and it didn't disappoint. We were using our TIW card. Both of us ordered Fish' n Chips and it was perfect. Our waitress was extremely attentive. I think she could tell how tired we both were. She brought us both to-go cups of our drinks as we were leaving and told us it wouldn't do to go out and buy another drink when we had already paid for one. We will definitely be eating here again.

My husband and I ate here on March 21 using our TIW. After a long day, it was great to sit down and order drinks. My husband ordered the Lapu Lapu and I had the Tropical Macaw. Both were great! The bread that they bring out is wonderful and the butter is wonderful too. Then it came to ordering dinner. My husband ordered the Spicy Tuna which he really did not like at all. He ate it because he was hungry. I ordered the pot stickers and soup for my dinner. I thought both were fine but nothing special. Neither of us ordered dessert even though they looked great. We decided we will try breakfast next time and skip the dinner menu here.

My Aunt and I stayed here for a Girls' Weekend March 6-8. It was the first time both of us ever stayed here. It's beautiful and quiet, but pretty large. We stayed in the Alligator Bayou Building 26. Our room was pretty far away but still nice. We drove over to the main building for Breakfast and then just took the bus to the parks. It's very pretty and we were surprised by how quiet it was. The beds were comfy but the tub/toilet area is small. All in all it's a great place.
Pros:
Lovely quietCons:

I was able to get ADR a week before our trip on the day ADR for lunch first opened. When we arrived, they couldn't find our ADR anywhere but we got in anyway. The restaurant is beautiful! We sat in the room with Belle and Beast's statues in the center of the room. My Aunt and I both ordered the Turkey Sandwich. I also got the Master's Cupcake and she ordered the Lemon Raspberry Cream Puff. We were both pleasantly surprised how delicious the food was! Real turkey not the cold cuts, crisp bread and great fries. Both our desserts were excellent as well and I will definitely go back
