Reply to comment by JennJayBee in Ousted Disney CEO Bob Chapek will get $20 million exit pay by lumpkin2013

Ouch!! Haven't been to Disney World since 1/2020 and guess I didn't notice at Disney Land in October. Awful.

I'm going off of Casey's Corner prices at WDW. They might be different in California.

This is why I don’t get fast food at WDW - if I’m going to get gouged, I at least want good food, and if possible, someone to bring it to me.

The table service isn't always good, either. The better restaurants honestly are either at Disney Springs or the resorts.

But there are a few of the quick service locations that stood out.

The Buffalo chicken grilled cheese sandwich over at ABC Commissary was amazing, but I've learned how to make it at home for much cheaper.

Satu'li Canteen is pretty good, too.

If you want a hot dog, you leave the park and go to Portillo's. Chicago dog with the best damn onion rings and a slice of chocolate cake (or a cake shake)... It's well worth the calories.

That’s pretty much where we are. There are 1 or 2 Table Service in each park we like (and not always the popular ones), and we’ll do lunches there, but for dinners, we always go to a restaurant in a resort near the park we’ve been in all day, in the resort we’re staying, or at Disney Springs.

The hot dogs at B.B. Wolf's Sausage Co. at Disney Springs are phenomenal too and worth the price, plus they come with a bag of chips for free.

Had dinner with some family friends at the german biergarten and the table service was downright HOSTILE. Every 2-3 minutes the waiter would come over and ask "Anything I can get you? CHECK?" To try to get us out as fast as they could.

Yikes. Thankfully, I've never had an issue with bad service. It's just that the food/experience has typically been mediocre for the price, with a few rare exceptions. Cinderella's Royal Table, for example, only just brought back the princesses roaming the room. Previously, folks had been fighting over reservations and paying up to nearly $70/person just to have Cindy come out and occasionally wave. (And the food was Denny's quality.)

And that's been pretty much on brand for in park restaurants as a whole lately— underwhelming overpriced food. Places like Boathouse (Disney Springs) aren't cheap, but at least the food and overall experience is better.

Portillos is always the right choice.

I'm mostly there for the onion rings, honestly, but it's all good.
