Priority Seating / Reservations Comments:
|
We didn't have priority seating. The
family sitting next to us told us that they made reservations in
advance and were given 4:00PM as "the only available
opening." |
Time of Wait:
|
We were quoted a ten minute wait. We
were asked to wait in the living room and ordered drinks. We were
sat just as the bartender was starting our drinks, within five
minutes. |
Food Review:
|
The entree we all chose was the breast
of chicken served on seasoned mashed potatoes with julienne green
beans. It was one of our favorite meals from all four parks. For
dessert we shared "Dad's Sundae" and "S'mores"
and couldn't believe we finished every last crumb and morsel. The
sundae came with Cracker Jacks, M&M's and lots of gooey hot
fudge. The S'more was the size of a dinner plate and was easily
one of the most decadent things we consumed outside of the
cocktails from the Tune-In Lounge. |
Service Review:
|
Our server was Uncle Skip who held our
dinning room with calm, quiet authority. We all finished our
lunches and were rewarded with "Clean Plate Club" stickers. |
Atmosphere Review:
|
We honestly felt like we stepped into
some strange, twisted time warp from the moment we walked through
the door. The decor is flawless. As a collector of Space Age and
50's kitchen and lounge memorabilia, I was envious of some of the
great pieces decorating all the rooms. It was just like what one
would expect when stepping into a 50's sitcom family kitchen. All
of the uncles and aunts and the rapports they develop with the
families they serve enhance the experience exponentially. |

Be sure to take your camera. While
waiting for our meal, Uncle Skip brought out the "family
album" and will want to add you to it! |
