- JMJOEL M6 days ago3.0We’ve dine here many times (not sure why tbh), service is impeccable and very friendly. Brian our server was fantastic! Sadly the food is pricey and mediocre at best. I had the fixed lunch of ribeye salad and dessert, and boy what a disappointment. Ribeye was lacking seasoning and not at all tender. Salad was meh. Saving grace was the phenomenal pistachio cheesecake! That was fantastic and should be a permanent menu it if they’re smart. Will we go back? Dunno to be honest
- MMMetellingtruthJan 1, 20265.0I’ve eaten here many times over the years and the atmosphere at this restaurant beats any nostalgic feeling any other Disney restaurant at any Disney park in the world can offer. The atmosphere and seating especially next to the to the river and watching all the people on the pirates of the Caribbean ride is an incredible feeling. The food is always good but the ambiance of this restaurant is second to none. It will always remain my favourite Disney restaurant. Pro tip, wake up 2 months in advance at 6am PST and make your reservation on the Disney website, otherwise there’s a chance you never get to eat here or experience what Walt Disney wanted us to experience before he died.
- WRWendy RobinsonDec 30, 20255.0We were so excited to make reservations to eat at the Blue Bayou restaurant inside of the Pirates of the Caribbean ride. We had a late evening meal and everyone was extremely happy with the food that was served. We got a variety off the menu and were pleased with each meal. The crab cakes were a pleasant appetizer to start off our meal. The market fish was amazing and very tasty. Our female server was ok, but nothing special. She rarely came to our table and then spilled water on my daughter when she passed by. The man JR was amazing!!!! He was super sweet and made our meal amazing and gave us great suggestions of places to visit while at the park. We felt well taken care of with him. Overall, if you want a spectacular experience for the ambiance of a cool place to eat, then make sure to make reservations here. The food is expensive (30-60 a plate) but the food is quite delicious and worth it. I wish we had room for dessert, since we saw several tables order and were impressed with what we saw.
- CSCandi SkehanDec 23, 20254.0We have enjoyed many wonderful meals and service here. The outstanding atmosphere is the most unique in the parks. My husband has celiacs disease and is vegan. His go to dishes here are the beet salad and pistachio lemon basil pasta (yes, they can make it GF upon request), delicious! I really enjoy the prime rib when it's available (also gf, not vegan). Sip a glass of wine, watch the boats go by and enjoy getting off your feet with some good food, cheers!
- LVLuis ValdovinosDec 22, 20251.0In my opinion, there is discrimination at every level of staff from the host Adolfo to the supervisor Mack & Alexa to the manager Tim. I would steer clear of this toxic environment. In my opinion, the staff believe they are entitled to belittle customers and provide preferential treatment based on ethnicity, race and sex. Disney executive team should thoroughly investigate the credentials of the employees of this establishment within its purview, as the staff has demonstrated a clear shift from empowered to entitled. Serious training deficiencies are clearly evident.
