The food was some of the worst I've had on Disney premises. Very limited indoor seating added to the frustration. Do not eat here unless you want to roast outside with mediocre food, at best. The Teriyaki Chicken tasted more like stewed chicken and you could get frozen chicken fingers anywhere. Strong pass!

Awful dining experience. Yes! This tasted as bad as it looks. The southwest chicken salad is absolutely disgusting. It had no cucumbers, avocados, or cheddar toppings, and the meat was strange- definitely not crispy chicken strips. I can’t believe they serve this soggy mess. We just threw it away. The bacon cheeseburger was missing the bacon. Very disappointing meal. The cashier that took our order was very sweet.

We stopped here because the smell lured us in. My friend and I both ordered the teriyaki rice bowl and that was delicious. However, don't expect to get a cold drink. We ordered two fountain drinks and were given cups for self service. The machines had zero ice and most of the drinks were empty. There were no attendants even trying to resolve the problems with the drink station and the restaurant wasn't even busy. We wasted $10 looking for something cold and refreshing to go with our meal.

My three most recent visits in the past two years…
Visit #1
Wasn’t a long wait for lunch. Ordered the Southwest Salad with Chicken. It was delicious. Genuinely couldn’t wait to order it again on my next visit. 5/5
Visit #2
Super busy and long wait for lunch. We waited 45-60 minutes. Machine broke down. Had exactly ONE cast member taking orders for all of the guests, and the cast member was in training. Completely wild. Why we remained in line is something I’ll never understand. Ordered the Southwest Salad with Chicken again. Nasty. Super disappointed. 0/5
Visit #3
Now have to eat gluten free. Not a long wait for dinner. Ordered the bacon cheeseburger with a gluten free bun. Gluten free bun was dry and crumbly. The burger patty was dry and flavorless. The bacon was soggy. The tomato and lettuce did not look good, so I removed them. The fries were soggy. 0/5
Positive:
Tons of seating, both indoors and outdoors.
