    Weird! Last time we went we were given a table inside and we were really disappointed because we wanted the view, so asked if we could go outside instead and ended up being the only 2 people out there - it was great!

    For all you get the prices look right... Before they seemed quite high for burgers or hot dogs (on kids menu) well even the burger on the adult menu...
    Will look forward to trying this new menu.

    New Menu, 1 Appetizer, 6 Main Courses, and 1 dessert. Seems like a CUTBACK in Variety!!!!

My sausage pasta was "ok", but the appetizers and desserts are just terrible. You don't even get a choice of app or dessert anymore. Everyone has to get the same thing. Jello Jigglers as an appetizer?? Really? And the dessert included cold little mass-produced cookie bites, a waxy white-chocolate shell, and tarts that taste like cardboard. And for all this, we paid $90.00 for two people (we only drank iced tea). The new menu is horrible. I would not recommend wasting your money. If you are in it for the princess interaction, just go to Princess Faire in the Magic Kingdom!
