I've seen many threads on the best restaurants, etc. - but rarely do I see threads on the worst. Are there any restaurants, counter or table service, that you absolutely avoid?
For me, it's T-Rex. I mean, we've never eaten there - it just seems so noisy that we've not even entertained it. Our perception could be completely wrong - but I'm thinking not.
Actually, I've always found the Rainforest Cafe(s) similar, I have been disappointed at every meal at one
Have you tried the Lava Lounge at the DTD location?
Granted it won't change your opinion on the food quality and probably the service, but it's outside on the water. A lot less crowded and loud and you can watch Saratoga Springs/DTD. You can also normally walk right up and get a table which makes the whole experience much better than inside.
Honestly, I only get back to WDW every few years at best
If that's the case, even if the traffic situation ends up being corrected at Disney Springs it's not worth it then. It's still Rainforest Cafe. If you've been to one you've been to all of them.
I get sooo tired of the Chef Mickeys bashing......excellent food
Yes! I forgot about Coral Reef! I think I had blocked that out. The food was so salty it was practically inedible.Chef Mickey's, Boma's, and Coral Reef are the three I will not go back to. Too many times of bad service and bad food.
