On a solo day this summer, I relived some of my favorites at Tambu, but there’s nothing like gathering family around those tables with that view and getting immersed in the Polynesian spirit.
During our one Disney world trip, a year ago, we made reservation here, enjoyed walking around the resort, and lucked out and got the fireworks and window seat . It was an amazing experience. Your podcast was such a huge help! #magical
I hope you review all the lounges on property. That would be so fun to watch!. Please include the lounge food as well as the drinks. I can’t drink alcohol, but I love your reviews - I can enjoy the drinks vicariously!
We've been going to WDW for decades and in our experience its not good food at all, but if you want to eat there, breakfast is the better option. Kona Cafe is a better experience for food and ambiance.
My husband and I agree with you! We would rather go to Kona or order online and we pick up the order. We will be sitting in Tambu Lounge and I will be drinking the Lapu Lapu refill. My husband goes down stairs and gets his Dole Whip w/rum.
Hi Dan and Leslie!! Have dined at 'Ohana numerous times with our family of 10 pre-Covid and once post-Covid. We had fantastic experiences there every time!! Now that Hubby and I go to WDW often without the kids and grandkids, we are frequent diners at Tambu Lounge to savor the best of what 'Ohana has to offer!!!! Your review expressed our sentiments about 'Ohana exactly!! Thanks so much!!
Thank you for this review! We are going to Disney this April and by some miracle I was able to get a 4pm reservation… not really the time we wanted, but I took it because it was available. Then one of the first things you said in this video was you had better experiences at the earlier times. 😊 Thanks again for your dining reviews … they have helped us a lot in our planning.
Rare meat would be nice for the beef. Yes, of course the shrimp is fully cooked. You can get the Lapu Lapu at Tambu Lounge refill without the pineapple and it's more economically priced. This is my favorite drink by the way! We ate there again in December and we agree the meat wasn't that good at all. We like just going to the Lounge and ordering from the others restaurant online menu. The fireworks are terrific on the beach too. That includes the electrical boat show. Great thumbs up.
I saw you guys at the Poly last week Wednesday! We were coming up the stairs and y’all were going down. Thanks for the review. The hubs and I were curious about that restaurant for dinner.
Just subscribed and boy do we have a lot in common with you guys as far as food and restaurants goes. We love your videos with all the descriptions and ratings of the 5 categories. The Boathouse seems to be our go to restaurant and Boma is probably #2 most frequented by us. So glad we subscribed and we will definitely try some new venues at DS when we revisit in March and April. Will you be making another trip to Summer House on the Lake to see if they have improved since your last visit? Btw, I’m also a one ice cube guy, lol
I'm going solo in Sept. and while I love Ohana and always eat there with my family, I am not sure that I can eat all of that by myself. Kona has a potsticker, although not quite the same type as Ohana, Lapu Lapus, and the bread pudding. What more could I want?
Planning on getting there in September. If we should be unable to grab a table during the fireworks, is there another spot to view them outside the resort?
I love the noods 🍜 and the bread pudding, but I'm not the biggest fan of some of their other offerings at the dinner so we do go to the lounge more often so I can get what I like w/o the big pricetag. My biggest complaint is the rushed service. The last time we were there we really felt rushed out the door, and for over $60 a person I feel like there are better options. I do like the atmosphere and theming of the entire hotel though. The coconut races I thought were during the character breakfast in the mornings-although I don't know if they've brought them back yet from all the big C changes. I'm glad you two enjoyed it so much this time.
Glad you enjoyed it! This is one of my favorites. I (jokingly) harass you all the time for not doing dessert. If you had skipped the bread pudding, I would have been forced to unsubscribe. 😂 Thanks for another great video!
0:35 a few times in the past we’ve been able to go and just get on the waiting list, wait for about 30-45m and get seated. But it’s been a couple years, so they still offer a waiting list?
4.5 is an excellent rating. Nothing at all brought it down from a 5. But looking at it the other way around, to bring it up to a 5 really would require cooking to order meals instead of bulk cooking the same food for everyone in large quantities, even if it was very good.
Ridiculous that you are paying a premium price to stay at the Polynesian resort and can’t eat in the restaurants without a 2 month advance reservation.

Ill try to get this reservation in January because we are coming in March. 😊

Thanks! Yes, we will definitely be back to Summer House soon.
Wow…..so glad for this review. Now I want to go for sure in December.
Hope you enjoy it!

The quality of these vids has always been great. Can easily see you guys reaching 100k+ subs.
Thank you!
Ohana for me is a one and done it. The only thing that I liked a lot (or loved) was the bread pudding at the end.
I don't get it either. I mean it was ok, I just don't get the hype. It was fine.
Everything you two had looked yummy. I need to try this place sometime. 😊
You should!
Ohana dinner is my favorite, the best I ever had on Disney property. I miss the food so much ..... Not the breakfast though.
Same here! Miss everything about including the drive up to the Polynesian.
Planning on getting there in September. If we should be unable to grab a table during the fireworks, is there another spot to view them outside the resort?
Yep! On the beach
I love the noods 🍜 and the bread pudding, but I'm not the biggest fan of some of their other offerings at the dinner so we do go to the lounge more often so I can get what I like w/o the big pricetag.

We’ve been rushed out in the past too. It wasn’t bad this time though.
Glad you enjoyed it! This is one of my favorites. I (jokingly) harass you all the time for not doing dessert. If you had skipped the bread pudding, I would have been forced to unsubscribe. 😂 Thanks for another great video!
😂😂 fair
I’ve had good luck getting dining reservations with the stakeout app! I got an ohana reservation week of for 5:50 pm :)
Nice! Wonder how long those apps will be around
So glad you did this one we went for breakfast and the characters were amazing wasnt a big fan of the food. But i think we d enjoy dinner.
Just curious what didn't you like about it?
0:35 a few times in the past we’ve been able to go and just get on the waiting list, wait for about 30-45m and get seated. But it’s been a couple years, so they still offer a waiting list?
I’m not sure, never tried.
Is it correct to assume that kids aren’t able to go into Tambu Lounge? Ages 8 and 11.
They can’t sit at the bar, but they can be at the tables there
Great review. Curious - what brought food to a 4.5 instead of a 5?
4.5 is an excellent rating. Nothing at all brought it down from a 5. But looking at it the other way around, to bring it up to a 5 really would require cooking to order meals instead of bulk cooking the same food for everyone in large quantities, even if it was very good.
I’m really surprised you gave them that rating 🤷🏻♀️ well….maybe because I had a different experience
Yeah, we say it a lot…you can have a totally different experience at the same restaurant at a different time
Is the bread pudding always cold?
No. It shouldn’t be cold
I’m sure it was plenty and u could get more but that dessert use to be way bigger
It’s bigger if you have a party of 3 or 4. And yes, they will bring you as much as you want.
Have you tried the family and friends breakfast?
Not yet
Would love to see a video on your tattoos
Check out today’s video when it posts 🤗
Loved the food but for a family of 5 with kids all above 9 hrs old I hated the price.
Oof, totally understandable
Dan-- where did you get your shirt?
Etsy
@jadebradshaw did you ever find the shirt on etsy , looking for same.
@@janeleslie4192I didn't! 😔
@@janeleslie4192 there is a very similar one you can find at target and other retailers online. Just google “beware the kakamora shirt”
Thank you
Too expensive. 😮 Love Disney atmosphere.
It’s definitely not cheap
Sounds like a strange combination of food !
I think Dan needs to give us a tour of his tats!
Check out Sunday’s
Video 🤗
People don’t dress for dinner ?
Ridiculous that you are paying a premium price to stay at the Polynesian resort and can’t eat in the restaurants without a 2 month advance reservation.
I don’t disagree, but not sure how they would change it to make it better.
Not worth the hype.
Lol, I’m sure others would disagree
