We ate at SC on the soft opening day. It wasn't what I would call 100% perfect or our favorite, but it was a good meal.
We walked by because I wanted to see if the walls were down. It was around 12:30 and we had done breakfast at BOG earlier. My son (23) wasn't feeling great because he was taking antibiotics, so we didn't mind sitting and waiting. We were told an hour, but it was 45 mins. The restaurant is well themed and the smaller rooms are actually interesting (we ate in the main room).
We didn't order any appetizers. I got the chicken, my husband got the lamb and my son tried the pho with duck. My son and I REALLY enjoyed our food. John said the pho was really good and hit the spot. I liked the chicken - the ****ake rice had a bit of a ginger seasoning flavor to it which was a nice surprise. Very nice and outside the box for an MK restaurant. My husband didn't care for the lamb chops. He felt they were too thin (called them lamb jerky lol) and said his lentils were under-cooked. I tried the lentils and thought they were fine, however. Both my husband and son got the souvenir mugs, as well as dessert. John got the coconut thing and didn't really like it. My husband got the kungaloosh and loved it! On opening day, they were not taking DVC or AP discounts.
I think the prices were fine and in line with what we ordered. I generally don't find Disney food prices to be outrageous given that we are in a theme park. Comparing prices with other amusement parks, baseball games and football games, I think it's reasonable.
As far as "plain" food options go, if that's what someone in the party wants, then this isn't a restaurant for you (or your family member). There are places all over WDW to get burgers, nuggets, etc. And, as others have noted, sensory issues are not life threatening as actual food allergies are.
I'd eat here again and try the mac & cheese next!!!! I know my son would return for the pho.
