Not great, but not bad either. Most of the recent reviews at AllEars.net are pretty marginal, and I'm looking for opinions from people here who may have eaten there fairly recently (past year). Thanks.

Many people complain about their serving chips instead of fries, but since I generally HATE fries, that is not an issue for me!

And althought I have never ordered it their signiture dish is the Hazelnut crusted chicken. They have an abrievated menu at their WDW location. At their other locations in Nashville and Chattanooga their menu is has to have at least 80 different items.

The distance to be covered isn't that long... what would it be... a mile and a half at most? Wouldn't be that expensive. Plus WDW would now have THREE more monorail resorts (five counting Swan and Dolphin). The premium they could add to their room rates would probably cover the expense.
