No sticky wings at kona

[Haley R]

Someone posted an article today showing Kona changed their menu. We have an adr for 2/1 and I was most excited for the sticky wings. Turns out those are gone now and replaced with fire roasted bbq wings which doesn’t appeal to me at all. Should we eat at a different monorail resort?

 

[Haley R]

I think we will just keep the adr and go in with an open mind

Were you going just for the wings? The menu there is really good, and was one of our favorite meals in December.

I was planning on just getting the wings and pot stickers

Don't quote me, but I think you can get the wings and possibly the pot stickers at the sushi bar! I'm bummed about the lack of sticky wings at Kona now too, but you never know, could end up liking the new wings better!

Not really happy the menu change but I don't think we'll give up on Kona yet.

We might wander over there before our adr just to see what they say. Thanks!

I don't know but my guess would be the food there comes from Kona's kitchen.

There’s a not so happy review on TripAdvisor today from someone about the menu change. Just one person’s opinion though

Yes.
If Kona’s menu no longer appeals to you, eat somewhere else.

I know you can get ('Ohana) potstickers at Tambu but not sure about wings. I'm assuming Kona pot stickers are similar/same as 'Ohana?

Thaaaat is a very good point lol. I'm sure they do as well, but, I really hope they still have them somewhere lol

We got the wings at Tambu at the end of December, but they’re not listed on the menu.

I’m assuming if they’re gone from Kona they are probably gone from tambu as well. So I’m wondering if ohana is changing theirs too?

if that is all you were planning to order i would not go. Hang on to your ADR for a while because they may show back up, but if they are gone for good, and they were 1/2 of your meal....ditch the ADR.

Do Ohana and Kona share a kitchen? I’m not sure.

They replaced them with pork "wings" which an early review indicates are quite good.

Thank you for posting this. That looks absolutely disgusting to me so we will be making an adr somewhere else. If they would’ve been just wings maybe I would consider but not now. So we need a new adr in or around mk. Any suggestions?

We did look at the wave and grand Floridian cafe menus and they didn’t look amazing but we haven’t tried them before. I doubt I could get an ohana reservation this late

We ended up booking crystal palace for now at 7:55 pm. We’ve never eaten there before and I do love Winnie the Pooh

They look good to me but I didn't have the love of the Kona wings that others did.

Presuming you are looking for a non-signature restaurant in the MK area, we do like the Wave and GFC but both for breakfast and not lunch or dinner. We enjoy Whispering Canyon at the Wilderness Lodge. It isn't technically on the monorail loop, but a quick boat ride away. The bbq isn't the best in the world, but its a fun atmosphere but I don't think they have wings on the menu. Geyser Point does though, but we haven't eaten them. Its a nice and relaxed outdoor lounge right on Bay Lake.

We generally book ADRs day of and Ohana does have last minute availability often, though you couldn't be guaranteed anything.
