I will rate the meals in order from best to worst in regard to food and service.
1. Flying Fish - This was the best meal we ever had at Disney and quite possibly the best meal ive ever had. The service was incredible and the food was great. My gf and I had the Lobster Bisque, I had the wood fired Mahi-Mahi and she had the potato snapper and or dessert I had the cheesecake and she had the chocolate sampler. We did not use our dining plan for this, total came to $150 including tip and tax.
2-Spirit of Aloha - Ive been to this every year we go and it was great as usual. The beggining is boring and they do stop serving drinks at a time but its because people cant see if there are waiters all over. The show is great at the end and the food was great as well. We used our dining plan here.
3- Sci-Fi Dine Inn - Great service, good food although overpriced. I had onion rings and The reuben with two cookies and cream shakes (dessert and drink). My gf had Spinach and artichoke dip, grilled chicken and chocolate cake. We used the dining plan.
4- BierGarten - Around this point was when our dining got bad. Atmosphere was great, the show was good while it lasted but they are very inconsiderate towards couples. They made me sit with a family of 3 while my gf was at a diagnol at the other table sitting with another family of 3. I couldnt talk to her without someone looking at me from either side. The service was bad, saw our waiter once and was without drinks the enitre time. And the food was good until me and my gf got sick from it. Terrible. Used the dining plan.
5-LeCellier - Its down here because its way overrated. It was very loud in there, and the staff seemed upset because for alot of them it was there last day there because internships ran out that day so our service sucked. The cheese soup was delicious but that was about it. Our breadsticks were stale, we sent our filet mignons back three times because we asked for well done but they were bleeding and our waitress had a hard time understanding us because she was a french canadian (good job disney). The brulees tasted disgusting and again our waitress would rather talk to her friends than see us. Terrible again. Used our dining plan.
6-Crystal Palace- Worst of all. There was a video being shot the morning of our reservation so we missed our 8:25am res and we got there about 8:45am because they wouldnt let anyone through at all. They sat us under a plant that was recently watered so it was dripping all over us and the waitress laughed when we asked to be moved. Piglet was the only one to stop at our table for 1 HOUR! Tigger just passed us, and eyore and pooh took "breaks" and never returned. I could understand they want to spend time with kids but they can stop at our table too, I mean we are using our credits to eat there like everyone else. The food was ok but it was a waste of time. Used our dining plan.
To me, because we were a younger a couple and we used the dining plan we were not treated up to par. The regular prices of these meals without the dining plan was ridiculousley high, so we should of been treated better imo but werent. This was the free dining plan so I cant complain about the food too much, but I will probably be using my AAA discount next time and pay for Flying Fish and the luau and just do counter services.
