Be Sure to Try: Stay away from the chicken.

Who: Valcarce Family

Where: Plaza Inn, on the right side of Main Street U.S.A. in Disneyland Park

When: October 3rd, 2006

What: Lunch - 2 Penne pastas, one with marinara sauce, 1 with Bolognese sauce, and two large bottles of water

Approximate Price of Entrees: $11.99 per pasta, $2.25 per bottle of water

Rate the following (1-5, five being the best!)
Food: 3 - the portion was huge, but both our pasta dishes were oily.
Service: 4 - counter service - we got there as it opened for lunch and there was a short wait
Atmosphere: 5 - really pretty, one of those counter service places that feels like a sit down because of the decor
Okay for Children: Yes. Even more so for the character breakfast, or if your child is celebrating a birthday.
Okay for Couples: Not really the most romantic setting
Be Sure to Try: As I said, somewhat disappointed in the pasta dish.

General tips: We were there exactly when they were opening for lunch (12 noon) and there was a short line. This is very close to the Baby Care Center for those with small children.

TheMouseForLess tips: the pasta dish was huge. I only ate half of it. It's certainly possible for two people who aren't ravenous to share one.

Extra Comments: If you eat at this restaurant at night, sit outside and look at the twinkling lights!


Who: Jen in SoCal

Where: Plaza Inn at Disneyland

When: December 2005

What: Dinner. Cobb Salad, Pasta with Meat Sauce, Soda

Approximate Price of Entrees: Cobb Salad $10; Pasta $11; Soda $2.50

Rate the following (1-5, five being the best!)
Food: 5
Service: 5
Atmosphere: 5
Okay for Children: Yes
Okay for Couples: Yes
Be Sure to Try: Cobb Salad and Pasta were great! The restaurant also has fried chicken and pot roast. We have had both on other visits and they are excellent, huge and can be shared.

General tips: There is seating inside and outside. We ate during the parade at a table on the raised patio right outside the dining room and we could see some of the parade. The restaurant was not crowded during the parade but as soon as it ended there was a huge line to get in.

TheMouseForLess tips: I ate the Cobb Salad and had the 2 kids share the adult pasta. They have kids meals (pasta or fried chicken leg) but the kids pasta is pretty small. The Cobb is huge and I usually cannot finish it, take the rest to go and eat it as a snack later. We got 10% off with our Annual Pass. The sodas are refillable here!

Extra Comments: This is a favorite of ours. The Cobb Salads are tossed with bleu cheese dressing but if you ask they will prepare you one minus any ingredients you don't want and with your choice of dressing on the side. When you enter you get a tray and silverware and then proceed to the different stations (salads & desserts, pasta, chicken, pot roast, drinks) each with their own line so if you have more than 1 adult split up in the lines to save time. After you have all your selections, you go to one of the cashiers. There are cashiers on the left and right so be sure to check who has a shorter line.


Who: Terry & Clay Horton, Belle & Nick Dobos

Where: Plaza Inn

When: October 19, 2005

What: Breakfast Buffet

Approximate Price of Entrees: It was included in our package, but when we checked in I think the cashier said it would be $90 for the four of us.

Rate the following (1-5, five being the best!)
Food: 4
Service: 3/4 - they cleared dirty dishes in a timely manner but it was a buffet so no "service" per se
Atmosphere:
Okay for Children: Oh yeah!
Okay for Couples: Yep! We had a great time!
Be Sure to Try: The buffet was great - we especially liked the omelet station! Wide selection to choose from elsewhere.

General tips: We had PS which seems a must. We waited about 15 mins after we got there before we were taken in to a table. There was a long line of people waiting to get in, and this was at 10:00 in the morning.

TheMouseForLess tips: Don't know - we had voucher from our resort package

Extra Comments: We were hoping to see a lot of characters. But we only saw Dale and Tigger. The others were there but they were swamped with kids and we finally had to be on our way. The cast members should have made the kids and parents go sit at their tables - we could hardly get out because Fairy GodMother had at least 15 people around her in the aisle - a zoo!


Who: the6x

Where: Plaza Inn

When: July 5, 2005

What: Princess Breakfast

Rate the following (1-5, five being the best!)

Food: 3.5
Service: 5
Atmosphere:
Okay for Children: Most definately yes during the character meals
Okay for Couples: Yes.
Be Sure to Try: Made to order omelets

General tips: We were seated outside & enjoyed watching the characters and people watching on the outside of the restaurant

TheMouseForLess tips: Don't know any

Extra Comments: This particular character meal has plenty of characters, but families tend to chase them down, so they don't tend to get to your tables as easily. So you may need to go in search of, otherwise you may not see all the characters in attendance. This was our least favorite part, was not getting the characters to ourselves like at Goofy's Kitchen and Ariel's Grotto Character Meals.
