The waiter has terrible-we were right next to a low rock ledge and when he would clear something from our table-he just placed it right next to us on the ledge, instead of taking it away. We asked 3 times for bread before we got ANY. We wished we had eaten at White Water Snacks and saved the $$$.

Originally Posted By liveforvacations I posted too quickly! As said previously, the one time we had the dinner buffet, it was delicious. We were a little concerned because it was certainly not as large as Goofy's and did not offer the same variety but we found they had everything we wanted and it was of a much higher quality. They offered pasta and both a tomato sauce and alfredo sauce and asparagus and some other vegetables and I put them all together to make a wonderful pasta primavara with a creamy tomato sauce and then I still was able to have salad, potatoes and dessert!

Originally Posted By roberts1398 We've never made it there for breakfast, although I've always wanted to. We do the dinner buffet every visit and LOVE it. Never been disappointed. We love the prime rib, and most of all, the corn chowder. It's all delicious! The kids always get the make-your-own-pizza, and look forward to it.
Originally Posted By amazedncal2 We've eaten there twice. Once for breakfast and I had banana french toast. YUM! The dinner buffet was "eh" for us, because it was very sparse. I think we were there on a slow night or late because it was almost weird how little was offered. Our DD ordered a pasta dish and it took forever to arrive. Again, I think it was just an off night. It wouldn't keep us from giving it another try. Now I want that banana french toast!
Originally Posted By ABBY MMMM MMMM, you guys are making me hungry! Sounds like you can't go wrong with any meal. I really can't believe I've never eaten there ! We might have to eat 2 meals there ! I see lots of corn chowder recommendations. Excited about that, I LOVE corn chowder! Banana french toast sounds good too! If they only had fantasia ice cream....

Originally Posted By smeeeko My vote is for the breakfast buffet. Dinner is ok but it's nothing to write home about. I used to enjoy going here for dinner when they still told stories but I guess that slows the service down at dinner.. also the selection on the buffet at dinner isn't what it used to be (no off night about it) and it's hard to come by vegetarian options as even the corn chowder soup which I love has bacon in it.. (I love bacon just not certain times of the year). OTH: they used to have these AMAZING dinner muffins.. and the chicken quesadillas used to come with a very nice med salsa (I don't think they do spicey there anymore though). The cheeseburgers are really good though.. but for that White Water Snacks is preferable (also for the chicken sandwich).

Originally Posted By cactushugr Hi - have to add my 2 cents here, we tried Storytellers for the first time on Saturday and it was a nightmare. Three hours and food ranged from nothing special to awful. I've read that others have shared my misfortune and it seems hit-and-miss. We are vegetarians and I am not paying $26.95 for a meat-centered buffet. I recommend you go elsewhere!

Originally Posted By ABBY Thanks for all the input!! We are definitely going to give it a try. I hope we get there on a "hit" day and not a "miss". Still can't decide which meal. You guys have talked about yummy stuff for every meal!! Have to decide pretty quick, if I want to make reservations, as my 60 day mark is quickly approaching. YAY!!

The omelette chef was really good. I was disappointed that there were no waffles on the buffet - asked the waitress - and she said all I had to do was ask for them! So she went ot the kitchen and came back with a plate of Mickey shaped waffles - and I was happy So, our only experience was a good one - and breakfast was good!
