Any opinions on The Plaza restaurant at MK?
We are eating there for the first time this weekend. Wondering if anyone had any opinions about it, good or bad. Thanks !!

Re: Any opinions on The Plaza restaurant at MK?
I've been, and it was good, but there is something I'd like to mention.
While it's definitely a sit-down, and the food is good, the choices and the prices are more like those of a counter service. Having said that, I would still recommend you try it. The only advice I'd give is that if you do have the dining plan, I would not use it for this place. Pay out of pocket and save your dining plan vouchers for a more expensive sit down. By the way, you'll love the desserts at the Plaza too, and you can't beat the location, right between the Main St hub and Tomorrowland.

We tried it. It was okay. The food was good and so was the service, but the choices were limited. I probably wouldn't bother going back.

Re: Any opinions on The Plaza restaurant at MK?
We love the Plaza Restaurant, I think it's a hidden gem in the MK. We like it because it's a change from fast food and big heavy meals. There aren't a lot of choices on the menu but we always find something good to eat. We have been 5 or 6 times and the service has always been very, very good.

Re: Any opinions on The Plaza restaurant at MK?
We ate here a couple times last year. We used the dining plan, as we planned on having a counter service meal that night as we would be too tired for a sit down.
The food was good, it was a nice place to sit down and cool off. The staff were very friendly and made for a lighter mid afternoon meal break. cloverboy |

Re: Any opinions on The Plaza restaurant at MK?
SHHHH!!!! Don't tell anybody about it! We love it and we eat there every time that we are there. If you are eating there, be aware that they give special treats to the 100th family of the day. We ate here one year and were walking from SM to Peco's Bill's. I wanted to eat somewhere inside because it was hot. We walked by and asked if there was a seat. We sat down and were the 100th family within 5 minutes. My kids loved it. My husband and I loved the dessert. It was a pleasant surprise and we look forward to it every trip.

I'll second everyone else's opinions. The Plaza has great burgers and sandwiches and is an excellent choice for a lighter meal.

Re: Any opinions on The Plaza restaurant at MK?
I really, really like it. As everyone said, relatively inexpensive, plus you get to sit down in the aircontioning. Great sandwiches, fun place to eat. Much less hectic than anywhere else too, plus many of the main street performers come in and entertain.

The Plaza is a great place to eat and relax for a spell. Just sitting out there and knowing you're at Disney....<sigh>...

Good sandwiches and ice cream. Plus it is a cute little spot.

We ate there in 2001 while having a bad day. Our meal was a neutral experience, can't say it was really bad or really good, it just was.

Re: Any opinions on The Plaza restaurant at MK?
Thank you all for your reports. We ate there Saturday evening and I thought it was ok honestly. The service was good only our poor server was sooo busy she still managed to give good service. The food was just ok nothing special IMO, except my root beer float. They have excellent ice cream. My favorite part was watching people. Our table was right up front by the doors and you would not believe how many people come right up and smoosh their faces against the doors and others who just try to walk right in not knowing that is a sit down restaurant and not CS. That was so much fun.
