Love the Boardwalk. Best location, local restaurants, atmosphere. Just a great place to stay. We had to cut our visit short unexpectedly, and concierge staff was very helpful.

What a brilliant night we had at Beaches and Cream. Brian our server was excellent, made us welcome, gave us plenty of time to look at the menu.
I had the burger and my wife had the hot dog. Both were delicious and freshly cooked. We shared a massive banana split as dessert.
You also get the excitement of people trying the Kitchen sink which is announced each time. It includes a whole can of whipped cream....A WHOLE CAN!!!

We were really looking forward to this and the experience was terrible. Our server was abrupt and rushed us. They sat us near the door. There was nothing remotely themed from where we were sitting.
Starter was okay, we had the Dim Sum sharer, however the main course came before we had finished and they just put it on the table. I was speechless.
The mains weren't anything I couldn't cook myself. The Pak Choi was bitter as it was undercooked. I wasn't told my refills were chargeable until I got the bill. We sat down at 3pm and were bundled out by 3:30pm, with $90 less in my pocket. So disappointed and won't be returning.

Nice wait staff, however, didn't want to exchange my dessert for an appetizer as described: ie: soup, fruit, or appetizer. Also, the tomato soup is not the bisque as it used to be. It was just dull tomato soup. Not a long wait to get in. Much faster than usual. Seated pretty much on time.

Had lunch here on Sept 15. Ate at the bar. Food is always decent here, and relatively speaking, not too expensive. Bartenders were friendly and helpful. Only complaint might be the pain it is to walk all the way there for lunch.

Had lunch here on Sept 14. Perhaps the best meal of the trip. Food was incredible. Service also very good. I had made reservations, but most definitely didn't need them. I understand Spice Road Table only recently started accepting reservations, not sure why, but the place was almost empty. Maybe it will remain a hidden gem for a while. Regardless, I highly recommend.

After reading many reviews praising the pizza here - especially the crust - I was excited to try it. I left disappointed. Had dinner here and was seated right away at a terrible table, but hey - someone has to sit there. Service was acceptable. Pizza was blah, and the crust was burned. I like pizza crust to be on the crusty/over-done side, but this was blackened. Not good. Place was loud, as expected. Maybe this was a bad night, or just a bad pizza. But I wasn't impressed.

I'm never sure what to make of the negative reviews for this place. I've eaten here maybe 5-6 times, and the food and service are always good. Most recent was a rainy Sunday afternoon for lunch, and the wait was a good 20 minutes past reservation time. Once seated, everything was good.

Ate dinner here Sept 13. Food and service were excellent. Atmosphere can't be beat. Pricey, but that's not a surprise. Overall, it was cool to drink a bottle of wine in the Magic Kingdom!

Ate a late dinner here after the Fantasmic show mid-week. Sat right at the bar, bartenders were friendly and helpful. I just had a burger, which was decent. My wife had meatloaf, which she could not eat. Probably won't go out of our way to come back here, but if we're staying at the Boardwalk again, very well could try it again.
