I'm going in October, and although we're getting free half board standard vouchers we will probably buy an extra meal a day, and maybe one night trade in the buffet voucher for money towards a table service restaurant. Can anyone recommend their favourite 3 buffets, favourite 3 counter service, and favourite 3 table service resaturants, as there's so many to choose from I'm currently struggling to narrow it down and will probably try a combination of them! Looking at the menus, some appeal to me more than others, but I'd like to know food quality from people who've tried it, not just what the menu says :)
Favourite buffet: Billy bobs
Table service :bistrot chez Remy
Counter service : hmmmmm not tried many other than hyperion.ooooo I know! Cowboy cookout! Great portions and we like the setting. Only one we really dislike is the one in the studios- nothing special and the queues are always huge
Bistrot chez remy was the best table service meal we had. We only tried the buffet at our hotel - Cape Cod at NBC- and Plaza Gardens. I preferred Cape Cod.
In no particular order -
Buffets: Plaza Gardens, Inventions, Restaurant des Stars
Counter Service: Hakuna Matata, Cowboy Cookout
Table service: Walts, Bistro Chez Rémy, Blue Lagoon
Believe it or not, in seven visits, we've only been to these once each. My idea of trying everything must be working! Although, we will be revisiting one, two or even three of these next trip.
Hmm lets see...
My top 3 in each category (in order, top favourite first)
