    First time I went to Blue Bayou, had the Monte Cristo and it was delicious! Today returned and ordered the prime rib with mashed potatoes. It was completely inedible. The amount of salt on both items was excessive and ruined the entire dish. I tried to let our waiter Fred know and he just nodded and smiled. A waste of $59.... the only positives were the ambiance and Frazier who took our pictures and went out of his way to make sure our glasses were always filled! He really interacts with everyone in and outside the restaurant. Blue Bayou is lucky to have him.

    Absolutely loved our experience dining here. The photos are from 2 different times. Their pre fix meals are amazing! Bone-in ribeye size is as big as my hand. Cajun style chicken with rice was wonderful, not too dry. The porg seemed to be eyeing both ribeye and cajun chicken. Atmosphere is intimate with a side of humor. We were sat near the edge where the people on the boat from Pirates of the Carribean can see, some were mostly asking "How's the food??" The waiters and waitresses were super friendly! We always try and make a point out of making reservation here when coming to Disneyland because the place and the whole experience makes it special after a long day in the theme park.

    I know this place will still be booked out months in advance no matter what anyone says, but wow!!The food was horrible. We were so excited to try it, but our rib eye steak was completely overcooked and so salty it was honestly inedible. The shrimp had no flavor, complete opposite of the steak. For the price and the hype, it was such a letdown. I really wanted to love it, but it was one of the worst meals I’ve ever had at Disneyland. It was so bad even after sending it back. We will never be back here again. The meal for three with drinks was over $300 . Definitely not worth it.

    Every time my fiancé and I dine here, it’s been an incredible experience! We both got the gumbo as a starter (an absolute must) and a got the 70the anniversary pre-fixe which was exemplary! The salad was fresh, while the ribeye… it’s a steak that dreams are made of. Cooked to a perfect medium rare, seasoned perfectly! The chocolate pistachio cheese cake was a perfect finale! My fiancé had the chicken(not pictured) and loved it! For dessert she got the doberge cake which was DELICIOUS (she gave me a bite ) and it looked great too! Definitely worth the effort! Hurricanes were tasty as always too!

    Plan to make a reservation as soon as your date opens on their calendar. Availability fills up instantly and now we know why! The whole dining experience was very impressive. We visited multiple restaurants in the parks and downtown Disney and this was our favorite. We were sat a few minutes after our reservation time. All of the staff were very friendly and professional. The food was delicious. Staff constantly walking around filling drinks, bussing, etc. You barely notice and hear the ride going nearby-we had to look for the boats. Great experience and great food.
