Re: Hollywood & Vine - What can you tell me?

We've been there several times. If I was doing the Fantasmic pkg, that's where we'd go every time. I have some picky eaters in my family, so the food there I know will please everyone.

I can't believe no one mentioned the ice cream sundae buffet!

Re: Hollywood & Vine - What can you tell me?

We've done dinner there before at 4:30PM and we enjoyed it. It wasn't my favorite but it was good. We are going back in November for lunch for the characters.

I was told NO characters for dinner?? Have you been for dinner?

Oh and lastly we didn't enjoy the food that much.

Re: Hollywood & Vine - What can you tell me?

Glad to hear most of the reviews were positive. We'll be eating here for the first time in June. My kids are rather picky and it looked like it had a good variety of foods that they would eat.

Re: Hollywood & Vine - What can you tell me?

We have ate there several time over the last few years and never had a problem. We have always had good service and there is plenty to choose from on the buffet, even for the picky eaters. The dessert bar is great with the ice cream and they always have these chocolate mousse tart things that are awesome! There are no characters at dinner, just breakfast and lunch. I hope you enjoy it!

The Playhouse Disney characters were just added to Breakfast.

Otherwise no characters, for Dinner, that is.
That is fine by me, because you get to a point where your tired of them!
You get so many of the same characters pics and autographs and we go along to be polite.
