In my opinion, Skipper's Canteen is the BEST restaurant in Magic Kingdom. The food is a bit more on the adventurous side. I love the references to Jungle Cruise and all of hidden tidbits (library corridor?) Servers are great.
Pros:
Creative menu- well executed, fun theme (for teens and up), booze (and full bar with tasty cocktails.)Cons:
Might be too adventurous for young explorers, price.Reviewed by Disnerd113 Review Date: 08/08/2023

We had high expectations for this restaurant. Couldn't wait for the deliciously described dishes and the funny banter from the waiter. Unfortunately, we got neither. When we arrived for our reservation, we were told our wait time would be about 20 minutes since the kitchen was back. Almost an hour later, we were seated. The waiter came to take our order, but there was were no jokes..in fact he seemed to be in a hurry to just take our order and move on. My husband got the chicken dish and it was dry and bland. I got the Chicken Tenders with Marbled Potatoes off the kid's menu. Again...no flavor and the potatoes were cold. So disappointed

Bad experience
Pros:
EnvironmentCons:
Food was not good quality. The steak tasted like a soggy sock, and I could have Got better lamb chops at Applebees. Children did not like either of their food choices.Reviewed by lauren94 Review Date: 08/16/2022

I love eating at this restaurant! The theming is cool and adventurous. I also thought the food was great! I got the pork friend rice and split the noodles with my friend and they were both so good. The menu is a little different, but everyone in my party was able to find something they liked to eat.
Pros:
Great food & themingCons:
Food is different. If you're a picky eater, this place may not be your fave.Reviewed by AmyKCL Review Date: 08/06/2022

We're a family of four with two adventurous eaters (adults) and two picky eaters (kids). We ate at Skipper's in July 2022. We were seated in the main dining room, and we thought the Jungle Cruise theming was excellent. Our server was friendly, and the service was good. Our kids loved the Brazilian cheese bread appetizer (we asked for the sauce on the side), and my husband and I liked the quality and variety of the food and drink options. My husband had the short ribs, I had the Thai noodles with chicken, and the kids both had chicken bites with broccoli and white rice. My littlest ended the meal with a small birthday volcano cake which was a thoughtful surprise that made the meal even more memorable for him. We would definitely eat here again on a future trip.

It can be difficult to get a same day reservation, but if you plan ahead, it is usually one you can get.Reviewed by TeamSnickySnack Review Date: 07/15/2022

Dined here in August 2021 and was very happy with the service and meal. My husband and I got to eat in the “secret room” and ordered from the “secret menu” which I thought was super fun and cute. We of course had to try the Brazilian cheese bread (delicious) and I had the secret noodle dish (also delicious); just the right amount of spice. We chose to eat lunch here, which was a nice break in the a/c from our Magic Kingdom day. I love the Jungle Cruise theme, as I have fond memories of the ride from childhood. The menu is a little more adventurous than your standard theme park food, so I wouldn’t recommend this to families with picky eaters.
