Well we are back from our vacation already. While we were there it was important for me to eat at Art Smith's Homecomin and my husband for Frontera Cocina - the only ADRs on My Disney Experience were 10:15 at night. We decided to go to the restaurants themselves and we were able to make reservations. This thread is not a dining review, but, I am going to take to opportunity to let you know our experience.
We stayed at Port Orleans Riverside and the food court was nothing to write home about. We did buy reusable mugs for $20 each that were were able to fill during our resort time.
We ate many of our meals in Disney Springs:
House of Blues: My husband had a fried chicken sandwich and fries which he loved. I had friend chicken, mashed potatoes, and the best coleslaw I have ever had. Wonderful meal not matter what you get.
Art Smith's Homecomin: Best meal of our stay. My husband had a whiskey flight with a beer chaser and candied pecans which he thoroughly enjoyed. We both had the fried chicken with creamy mashed and a cheddar biscuit. Best friend chicken ever - buttery and crispy at the same time. My husband had their chocolate pecan pie with vanilla ice cream that he loved and I had the donuts which I did not enjoy.
Frontera Cocina: We loved it here. My husband had 2 drinks and a salad. I had a chicken covered in a cheese sauce - very delicious.
Magic Kingdom:
Skipper Canteen - One of the best meals we had all trip. I had jasmine rice with a crispy fried chicken breast and vegetables in a teriyaki sauce (the sauce was a little thick) and my husband had pad thai noodles - it was delicious.
Hollywood Studios:
50's Prime Time Cafe: A favorite. My husband had fried chicken and onion rings and I had meatloaf, fried chicken, and pot roast. We loved it.
Animal Kingdom:
Yak and Yeti: We loved it our last trip but this trip did not really enjoy it. It was not bad but for the price it was not good either. Should have eaten at Tusker House instead.
Epcot:
Via Napoli - we had a pepperoni pizza for lunch and each got a 10" but in reality could have shared one. I ordered the chocolate hazelnut cake for dessert and found it dry and traded in for a taramisu which I greatly enjoyed.
San Angel Inn: We had tortilla chips and salsa. Then my husband had tacos which he enjoyed and I had a chicken dish smothered in cheese. We each had a flan for dessert. We liked it a lot.
Finally, Hoop-Dee-Doo Review: Fried chicken, ribs, potatoes, beans, salad, corn, and cornbread. Strawberry shortcake for dessert. We liked the friend chicken, could not eat the ribs and the rest was mediocre. All you can eat and drink including beer and wine. This is a tradition on our last night.
