This was my second time here, but first time having dinner. The truffle fries and guac were fantastic, and my Brussels sprout salad entree was delish. My companion didn’t love his tuna tostada, he said it was too salty, but that was the only low point. This place is pricey, but to be expected at Disney Springs, and worth it for the excellent vibes. Hopefully next time we can get a table outside.

Great selection of menu items in a very clean atmosphere. The view from the back deck was amazing. All the staff were inviting and attentive. It has become a must visit for each future trip to Disney World.

I have tried to like this restaurant. This was my 10th time dining here. The service was awful. The prices are very high. Substitutions are rarely allowed. I asked for extra sauce for my truffle fries twice. It finally arrived after we finished the fries. The portions are ridiculously small. I got 14 rigatoni noodles in my entree. That about $1.50 per noodle! You could see the bottom of the bowl. The guy delivering the order to the table actually laughed and agreed about the small portion size. The manager came over and apologized, although she did not see the small portion. After almost 30 minutes more, the manager delivered my pasta. She, very loudly, said she gave me a double portion. I was embarrassed. Like I was a pig asking for extra food. There was actually at least four times the amount in my original order. I couldn’t wait to get out of there. So done with this place!!!
