- As I always say: the only consistent thing about Disney restaurants is that they're inconsistent! And that's why we keep going back to Disney's hundreds of restaurants over and over again -- there's always the opportunity to have them significantly change over time. Today we're talking about six restaurants we've changed our minds about over the past few months based on recent experiences. Hopefully this is helpful to you as you plan your trip!

Thank you for all the information you give us. I'm a cast member and bus driver in Disney Springs and I send guests to here for anything they want to know
Dice and Dishes me too!! (Minus the bus driver part)
Dice and Dishes Thank you for the great job you for us Disney loves 💋
I'd like to see a review of best places to get salads and best salads in WDW.
Artist Point is a high end character dining experience. It was all good start to finish....and the Queen was fabulous.
I just discovered your channel and I gotta say, I'm already hooked.
My mother just got a job at WDW, so now we get to visit for free...
I'm definitely looking forward to that, and watching your videos is just renewing my love for Disney.
+ They're very well put together and idk why but your voice calms me down a lot?
"The only consistent thing about Disney dining is that it's inconsistent" Best take ever on Disney food.
They used to have the most amazing Jambalaya but now its the worst.
Dive Bar Casanova go to New Orleans for that
Problem I had with Marrakesh was the price! I went there by myself for lunch, and even with a castmember discount, with tip I paid $73. That’s crazy for a lunch.
What did you order?
Taste of marakesh
I love that you revisit restaurants that you weren’t fans of just to see if they improved or still stink. This is one of my favorite recent videos from DFB.
can you guys make a packing list? like, not just the unusual items, but everything? Love you guys!
For a Day Pack (for a single-day visit for EACH person) this is what I've come to put inside:
-- Spare change of clothing (appropriate for the season/weather, in case you get wet from sudden rain, water rides, etc.)
-- Bottled Water (for just in case when you cannot reach a quick-service counter for free water)
-- Rain Poncho
-- Non-Perishable Snacks (granola bars, fruit snacks, etc.)
-- Personal First Aid Kit (They sell these at Wal-Mart, Target, CVS, etc.)
-- Sunscreen (a small bottle)
-- Pocket-Sized Re-charger (one for phones)
-- A Few Gallon-sized Zip-lock Bags (to protect electronics, personal items from getting wet; holding wet clothing, after getting soaked on water rides, etc.).
-- Packet of Hand Wipes.
-- Small Bottle of Hand Sanitizer.
If you are traveling with a Baby/Toddler, Recommend adding a few Disposable Diapers, as well.
All of the items are ESSENTIAL for any single-day trip to Disney, to help in case of hunger, thirst, sudden rainstorms, etc.
I've done some packing videos on my channel if you want to check them out!
Love the help everyone here is always offering fellow viewers

Thank you AJ and the whole DFBGuide team for all the work and time you put into these videos!
We went to Artist Point last month. The food was delicious and we loved the characters. I would definitely recommend it and will be going back :)
Oh thank God, I have a dinner reservation and was nervous it wouldn't be good cause I haven't heard too many people talk about it lol. I'm excited now!
I really hope they consider adding a vegan/vegetarian sausage to the ronto wrap menu
Ok but how can I become part of the DFB guide and go to Disney every other week hehe
Words can't describe my excitement, so I'm going to illustrate it the best way I can: 😁
Your videos are so awesome!! Can you please make a video about the new Disney Villains After Hours??
I've been waiting for this video! Thank you, AJ!
Loved this video! Good to hear when things change, for the better or worse!
Alot of great updates thanks!
I saw your updated review on Marrakesh a couple months ago, right before I had a reservation there. Decided to keep it. We had a ton of other awesome reservations, and I figured even if one wasn’t as great we’d still have a mostly excellent food experience on our trip. Marrakesh was gorgeous, but yeah, the food was just okay. Glad I’d watched your video so my expectations were low! (Sanaa was our first meal of the trip and it was incredible, and we did lunch at Morimoto Asia our last day, which was also fantastic.) So we’ve checked Marrakesh off our list, but I think we’ll be heading to Spice Road Table for our Moroccan food unless Marrakesh revamps their menu.
Have you ever done a video on best places to eat if you're vegetarian? I know the sit down restaurants always have options, but I went one year and got super light headed because it was so hard to find counter service vegetarian options that weren't just straight up junk food. I almost ended up paying $30 for a buffet just to get a salad so I wouldn't get sick.
Great job as always, AJ,. thanx!
Hi! You guys are so helpful and awesome! Can you by any chance make a video about special magic hours and after hours??? Thank you!
I am getting the Ronto Morning Wrap on June 20!
We cannot wait for Storybook Dining in December when we go. We were open to book dining on Monday and that was the first thing we booked bc we didn’t want to miss out. My kids love Snow White and the seven dwarfs, so I can’t wait to see their reactions!
My sister and I ate at Nine Dragons last fall and we really enjoyed it - especially the drinks and Spicy Mala dish!! I'm so glad you were able to have a better experience too!
Love your videos as always
House of Blues really changed my opinion for the better. I just ate there and the food was incredible! The street corn and the mac & cheese skillet are amazing. Plus really nice pulled pork, not too smokey! And of course we got the bread pudding DFB recommends and it was HEAVENLY. Really great service too! 👍🏻
So clever. Loved it
I'm so excited about Artist Point. It took allot of moving around to get a reservation but I did it. So make sure you call at 180 days!!!
I have to say we went to Artist Pointe (Storybook Dining) and we were really disappointed by the mains. I ordered the Kingklip and it was so overcooked it was basically mush, and my friend got a pasta dish which came with tomatoes which weren't on the menu which is a huge pet peeve of mine! The starters and desserts were really good and the character interactions were really cool but we obviously hit them on a off day as I thought the mains were quite low quality!
loved Spice Road Table
We ate at restaurant Marrakesh in August last year and it was amazing. It was a last minute reservation and the place was empty. I chose the beef short rib and OMG it was the best short rib I've ever had.
Also at Ronto Roasters, don't overlook those Overnight Oats! Oh my gosh, so good, and packed with tropical fruits. My boys loved it!
CAN'T WAIT to go to Storybook Dining in September 2020!
Judi Bickford see you there from 25/09/2020
I'm glad to hear that Artist Point is a good restaurant I booked a dinner reservation there and was nervous about how the food would be but was willing to take the gamble for a chance to meet Evil Queen and Grumpy lol
When I have gone to Artist Point I have always had great service
Artist Point looks amazing!
You should do a video on two dinning credit resteraunts. They are some of the best like The Boathouse, Yatchman' s Steakhouse, Be Our Guest. The service is always good as well as the food.
There is one. I would just check the playlist.
Love your reviews so professional , have you done review on the new ABC Commissary
Great video
I agree with what you said about Restaurant Marrakech. My dad was part of the first group of workers that came from Morocco to open the restaurant. My dad was also the first manager there. The quality of the food there has changed sooooo much. On my last visit to Epcot, I went in the kitchen with my dad’s friend that still works there and my dad could just tell that there was a big difference. The food isn’t as Moroccan as it used to feel. I’m also writing this comment on my trip to Morocco lol😂😂
we kept getting recommendations for Marrakesh so we decided to try it a couple years ago - we were quite underwhelmed. Won't be going back. But we ARE going to try Spice Road Table this October!
I wish they would add a vegan option at Ronto Roasters! Like the Beyond Sausage they have at Casey's Corner in Magic Kingdom 🙂
Happiest Vegan on Earth THEY HAVE BEYOND SAUSAGES AT DISNEY WORLD???????? my day is made
@A J Hmm.. well, non-veganism requires daily animal sacrifice, while veganism seeks to avoid causing harm as much as possible.. which one sounds more like a cult? 😉
A J humans are actually better adapted to digest plant based foods and 80% of the population is lactose intolerant. veganism actually makes more sense for humans!!! but go off and get heart disease i guess :/
My family and I Love 9 dragons mainly because of the price point. It’s only a little more then quick service but not price gouging. Also it has good tasty food and always good service
Tried to get a dinning reservation at Artist Point for December and could not. It looks so awesome! Oh well guess I will have to plan another Disney trip.
Chaotic Yank keep trying! Reservations will open up ALL the time, especially closer to your trip. I ended up getting a reservation there about 3 days before my vacation, just because people will cancel as the time approaches!
Where do you usually get Chinese food. Nine dragons was eye opening for me and I have a hard time ordering from our local take out place. Tou must be very lucky! Thanks for the tips!
Just ate at Storybook Dining at Artist Point Tuesday night. The drinks, food presentations, decor and the characters were on point. The food itself was a letdown. Chicken was so so dry and the vegetables were hard. If not for our DDP we would not have chosen it. We wouldn’t pay out of pocket for this experience. We have awesome photo memories though. It was a 1 and done for us.
Yeh
One restaurant I’ve changed my opinion on is Via Napoli. The food is okay but it’s sooo expensive for what it is. The service is not the best either 😕
I booked artist point for the character experience so I am happy they changed that.
And the roasters wrap at GE jumped a few points on my list - I am looking for an early morning breakfast thing at my Hollywood and GE day.
And the cupcakes at All Star Music sounds like a great breakfast/early morning snack thing to me since I will be going there.
I hope you can go and do a review of Galaxy Edge in WDW when it opens i late august. Specially on how it is different from the Disneyland one.
I would also be a great thing to know more about the skyline when it is open - Like if its worth taking over busdrive and how it changes the dynamics of the transportation system etc. I plan to use Disney transportation a lot.
It would also help to have a late arrivial and late departure day tip video for those day. I have nothing planed for my arrivial but is there things you can do near All Star to just go and feel the magic a bit? I am also up on the fench if Chef Mickeys is a good last day brunch visit or if its better to have another resturant like California Grill or being in one of the parks for brunch? I am after a kind of "Farewell party" feeling. I am also wondering if any of the miniature golf courses is worth spending time at.
And with planing in mind - How much would you recomend to do park hopping? Is it worth doing or will it eat up pressures park time? I have left my first whole day morning free but since I expect to get out of bed late after the flight from home but I am eager to go and see Galaxy Edge among the first thing I do.
Oh, and I am up on the fence on how Be Our Guest Quick service resturant holds compares to other MK resturants as lunch? I have a 20:40 (is that in the midst of the fireworks?) booking for The Royal Table at Cinderalas castle so I had to go at lunch for BOG. Johan.
Have you reviewed the new lunch menu items at be our guest restaurant?
I'm not a Disney fan and will not be back to the parks in this lifetime, but some of that food looks great. Have to wonder if Disney would not do well to start opening some of these places across the USA? Even if they run a concept a few years until it dies then change it. Not like there is a shortage of retail space available.
I’d love to see a Tiffins review
Not sure what happend to Yak N Yeti but no restaurant has fallen off in such a short time. As of October 2018, this was one of if not my familys favorite. We went on Feb 2019 and everything that could have went wrong did. Service was very bad, from misinformation to wrong food to forgetting the water I asked for several times. Dim sum was cold. But that was one bad experience so we went back in May and it was WORSE! What Happend?!?!
Agreed! YnY was a fantastic restaurant when it opened. Thank goodness for Tiffins and Flame Tree or else the restaurant options in AK would be pretty lacking.
I went to The Edison, at Disney Springs in WDW, way back in February and I thought that it was gonna be a steakhouse. Boy was I mistaken, same with my family. We had the shrimp appetizer, and the shrimp was BIG. While I was right about the steaks they had Big Grilled Cheese sandwiches with Tomato basil soup. While the sandwiches were good the soup was subpar for me and lukewarm for my mom. We will definitely be heading back there, don’t know when but we’ll probably be getting just the shrimp.
Can u please do a video on all the different desserts in WDW?
I went to Marrakesh back in the 1990’s with a friend and my 9 year daughter. I didn’t like the service and I don’t remember the food. I’ve never been back. I had questions since it was a new experience , and even though the restaurant was mainly empty, the server couldn’t be bothered.
I'm surprised by Nine Dragons! I always wanted their food to be so much better than it's been, so that's a pleasant surprise.
Those bun things from Nine Dragons look delicious! The ones with the carrots and onions and that orange sauce- what are those?
McKenna M It’s either Grandma’s Pork Belly or the Pork Belly Bao Buns.
One that has me curious is whether or not you've revisited Crystal Palace. My husband and I went there a couple years in a row when it was fantastic, then the next couple years it was not on the top of our list. We just recently retried it, and I don't know what happened in the kitchen but the food is considerably better.
How do I get a job like yours?? I have always loved Disney, but have never been to the parks (only downtown Disney). I’m hoping to make my first trip November 2020 for my 48th birthday. Just discovered your videos and love them. Great information!
Disappointed hearing about Marrakesh I wanted to try it out. Haven''t been to Spiced Row Table yet though been wanting to do that too
Spice Road is awesome, highly recommend the lamb sliders with a cocktail! I love that their outdoor seating overlooks the water so if you get there before the fireworks start it's a good place to relax and enjoy the show.
We went to Restaurant Marrakesh last year and were very disappointed with the food. For one thing, they had a couple things listed on the menu that looked really good, but then we were told they didn't make them. When I asked why they were on the menu, the waiter just looked embarrassed and said it wasn't his fault. lol. It was just a very ordinary meal that we ate to fill us up, not that we enjoyed it. We won't be back...unless we get stuck and can't find any other place, then we'll try it again.
UGH. I don't know what I hate worse...seeing something good on a menu and then being told they don't have it, or going to a place and being handed a menu where some of the selections are crossed out with a Sharpie. 😂
Anywhere on site which does a Doner Kebab? Last time I vaguely remember one was Pleasure Island.
Do food credits work at Galaxy's Edge? If so; could you do a video on what counts as a snack, meal, or drink credit?
Credits WILL do fine...
@@ennoidyam Are you giving me a genuine answer with a Qui-Gon quote, or are you trying to mind trick me?
I would love for you guys to check out rose and crown's new menu. They took off some of the best menu items imo, and the one's that stayed seemed to be of lower quality. Wondering if it's just me 😅
Best cooling tips and gadgets????
I have to say I have heard time and time again how bad the all stars food courts were, you know what I stayed at sports in Jan, and ate dinner there a few times, and were impressed by the food.
The Nine Dragons restaurant was the only country I never ate in, because it got such poor reviews. I’m happy to hear of its improvements, and will try a meal there next time. Do you like it better at Lunch or Dinner, or is the same menu available at both. Thanks for the update.
As someone with severe food allergies, I LOVE DISNEY DINING. However, when we stayed at the All-Star Movies resort, their food court was disappointing. While they did have a chef come out and talk to me about my allergies it was not very well organized. For example, I ordered and paid for a meal before I knew if I could even eat it, which of course I couldn’t. Also, the chef I talked to treated me more like an inconvenience than a paying customer. I’ve come to expect a lot from Disney Dining and their allergy accommodations, so the World Premiere food court was extremely disappointing. :(
have you thought about doing a video about all the vegan options that are available in the Parks? Cuz plant-based is a growing trend and it would be really nice to have a comprehensive video thanks
Sad to hear about Marakesh. It had been a must go dining location for the family.
Try Spice Road Table. Similar menu, better bar and a great water view.
@@boylanroden Thank you for the heads up.
Can you do a video about where to eat as a vegetarian?
Only 3 months out for my Disney works trip, not gonna lie getting nervous 😬.
Hi AJ I think you needs to goto Artist point again, as we just come back, and it was the worst meal we have had. Food come up cold and my wife’s dish was served raw three times. Then they charged my card for the entire meal even though we had dinning plan
Peter Smith oh no
Sorry, but I LOVE Restaurant Marrakesh, I loved my meal. One bad day doesn't make a pattern.
You had me at "boozey".
Are the beignets still wheat or did they go back to the yummy original recipe?
Is Ronto Roasters opened now for everyone?
Nine Dragons is one of my favorite restaurants. The food is amazing, the atmosphere is relaxing, and it's in a good spot at Epcot.
Could you do a list for what to with a large group of 20 manny 1st time like should you do dining plan,hopper tickets ect and what to pack help please
If you are going with 20 ppl, I definitely recommend the dining plan. Have water and snacks sent to your hotel. Pack a poncho, sweater, and bathing suit for any type of weather. Make sure to take bandaids with Neosporin and Advil or Tylenol for emergency circumstances! Other than that, you're good and can buy there!! Have a great trip! Make sure to stop of at bargain world or character warehouse for discounted Disney merchandise!
If you can afford it, I always recommend park hopper tickets for a number of reasons, and all the more so if you're in a big group - if you want to have a big meal together in one of the parks, for example, it will be helpful for people to be able to do their own thing at whatever park they want and then be able to come to the park selected for the meal. If not, everyone will have the spend the whole day in that park regardless of their other plans.
The Biergarten restaurant in the Germany pavilion is a great dining option for a big group.
Does anyone know the date when the space restaurant opens in EPCOT?
I haven't heard a specific date. I've just heard that it will be open in time for the 50th anniversary of WDW's opening in 2021.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
We’ll will be dining at Artist Point on June 21st!
James Poteat isn’t Artist Point closed and replaced by Story Book Dining?
Marc C. It’s “Story Book Dining at Artist Point”
Ah, that’s why I can’t find it on the app!
Artist point already changed the menu and did not have a few things you mentioned in your review when we went May 2. The kids chicken was undercooked and looked like a McDonald’s grilled chicken patty. The kids refused to eat it and I didn’t make them! The only thing they enjoyed was the string cheese and that’s a pretty penny to pay for string cheese 😂 The adult meals were great and appetizers were great, I just don’t recommend the kids food!
I am sad to hear of the decline of Marrakesh, it used to be one of my favorites...
You're right about Marrakesh... I know it's there, but I've never been there
Hey, AJ! I was just looking at the WDW app and 10 attractions are closed in the magic kingdom. Any idea why? I’ve never seen that many closed.
It looks like they are getting some thunder storms today, not the typical "Florida shower" but real rain. They will close down with lightening.
AsheTheRealtor yesss I almost forgot about those taller rides closing for lightning
I once got tasteless bacon at Ohana
Impossible! There's no such thing as tasteless bacon.
I took my mom to Disney World, been wanting to take her somewhere cool while I still can. The trip was horrible, the airport was closed in frigid weather for two hours, our flight schedule was so tight I couldn't even stop to get us some burgers and fries, and let's face it, we all know those little bags of pretzels are not going to do anything for anyone's hunger.
When I get hungry I get feral, and it was six hours.
But the whole trip I'm keeping it together because I really don't want to take it out on the Disney staff, I don't want to punish my mom, and as expensive the trip is, I don't want to ruin the trip for myself. So I am holding my temper in check if just barely.
We get checked in, we get in line at Scat Cat's, which isn't large fortunately. No, I didn't get the boozy beneigts, six hours starving? That is a stupid idea. No, I got the beneigts with chocolate ice cream and caramel sauce because I deserve it. The anger and rage that had been building up? Gone, just like melted ice cream.
I went to Artist Point in 2017 and it wasn’t great at all. The appetizers were so subpar. The dessert sucked. The steak was delicious, but it was 3 hours of sitting there in a dark depressing restaurant with basic service for a roller coaster experience. Mediocre-great-mediocre. I’m really glad they changed it. I have reservations for story book dining later this year and I’m excited to trynit
You make it sound like a bad thing that you have to go to Disney and have bellow average Disney food for your job 😂😂
Maybe I’m just dumb but I never knew the word pedestrian could be used as an adjective. Learn something new everyday
According to Merriam-Webster, the word pedestrian has been used as an adjective since 1716. It meant commonplace or unimaginative.
Howard Wiggins well I know that now but I was just saying I had never heard someone use the word in that context
How do I get a job working for DFB??? Dream job for sure!!!!😋
I was just thinking the same thing! 😂
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿💖💜💛💚💖
Hidden Mickey at 2:20
I ate at restaurant Marrakesh twice and both times it was so bland. 😜
I went to Marrakesh and got food poisoning. It was a long time ago, but I’ll never go back.
First
I've tried the jambalaya at sassagoula French Quarter recently it was AWfull dried rice with saggy sausages and not really spicy -
It was disgusting my wife had the shrimp and grits and she couldn't finish it it was so greasy that it make her sick - definitely not a good experience. - the only good item I tried is the beignets !
I have found the Jambalaya at House of Blues in Disney Springs to be quite good. Spicy but not too spicy, and when I had it it was moist and flavorful. It's a main entrée instead of an appetizer, though...so be prepared for an entrée price tag.
Yeah, I miss Artist Point. They had an awesome filet and that mushroom soup!!! Going to forever miss the mushroom soup. 😭 One restaurant that I used to LOVE was Citrico’s at Grand Floridian. Now I’m finding it to be just meh. Last few times we went there, the steaks weren’t prepared well and that celery root soup was horrible. I’m sure it will change again before too long...they always do. Thank goodness Le Cellier is still AWESOME!
Mushroom soup is back at Artist Point as a starter! (or at least it was in May) it did taste great so I'm sad we couldn't get it as a main!
rachellochness Yay!! So glad to hear it’s back!! 😍😍😍
