Chef Mickey's Orlando Reviews from The Last Year
Chef Mickeys 16 years later
Enjoyed a quick January trip to Walt Disney World. Have not been to Chef Mickeys since our boys were little. The food was better than I remembered. Absolutely loved it.
In my opinion, Chef Mickey's is overrated and overpriced.
We went for dinner to celebrate our daughter's 5th birthday because she requested it. The restaurant offers a buffet-style meal catering to both kids and adults. However, the food selection is very limited considering the price, and you don't get your money's worth. The primary attraction seems to be the Character Experience, as the food itself is just okay. I would recommend it for the experience, but not for a repeat visit.
Move over, Mickey Mouse, there's a new sheriff in
Move over, Mickey Mouse, there's a new sheriff in Flavortown! This ain't no kiddie meal, folks. We're talking a shrimp-tastic feast that would make Bubba Gump blush. I inhaled THIRTY (yes, 30!) plump, juicy shrimp, each one bigger than my thumb. Scampi? Check. Peel-and-eat? Double-check. This wasn't just dinner, it was a crustacean carnival. But wait, there's more! In a moment of temporary insanity, I paused my shrimp marathon to savor a perfectly cooked prime rib. It was so good, I almost forgot to Instagram it... but hey, priorities, right? Now, all this deliciousness comes at a price. Prepare to shell out around $225 for a family of three. Not exactly chump change, but hey, you can't put a price on happiness (or a mountain of shrimp), but you can take a star. So, if you're feeling flush and craving a seafood or prime rib adventure, dive right in! Your taste buds will thank you.
This is a go-to for any first time in Disney World.
This was the first restaurant we went to, and quite frankly a very satisfying and delicious introduction to the restaurants offered by Disney. Located in the Contemporary Resort which housed a few stores that were great to cruise around while our table was being ready, Chef Mickey's went to great lengths to ensure our dinner was an amazing experience. The buffet was excellent: we all tried the prime rib, (perfectly cooked, I might add), homemade mashed potatoes and turkey gravy, a salad bar, bacon and cheddar soup, the list goes on. To complete the meal, they also offered delicious desserts such as lemon/strawberry cake, chocolate cheesecake, and Minnie and Donald cupcakes. All of the house cocktails were well balanced and complimented our meals. They also included a guide of what foods were allergy friendly. If you were wondering, the meal and cocktails (I believe the other drinks were as well) were included in our dining plan, making the experience well-worth it. The characters also made appearances throughout the night, and we took memorable pictures as well as had a great time as a family. Around the restaurant, the kids who were there were having the time of their lives, dancing and interacting with the Disney mascots. The staff were also very friendly and ensured each character visited each table. They were very patient with our group, and were always checking up on us. This restaurant really made our trip a memorable one.
This place was awesome! The food was delicious! My daughter
This place was awesome! The food was delicious! My daughter was able to meet all of the characters, which was very cool! Everything that I ate on the Buffett was good! We had reservations for 12:25 for four people. We still had to wait and wasn't seated subtjl after 1pm, which was a little annoying. Overall, it was a great experience and the best food that we ate out of all the parks!
A good visit ruined by the front desk.
Visited chef Mickey as part of our visit to Disneyland FL. Fairly highly rated and reviewed quite well. Would like to say the food and serving staff were very pleasant. George & Jordan looked after us once seated and were more than we could have asked for. Characters were great sports as you’d expect and the buffet was easy to navigate and well presented. The front desk by contrast was rude and highly inefficient. Booking was for 7pm. This was pushed back on arrival to 7:45pm. Ignored and no acknowledgement. Had been advised it was due to it being very busy. However could watch staff chatting away, multiple tables left uncleared and lack of organisation by the management team. It muddied what could have been a good meal as it was off to terrible start. Had it not been for the friendliness of George & Jordan I’m sure this review would have read worse.
5 stars for the server
Interesting place with all the main chat from Disney. The server was amazing and I give him 5 stars. Food was ordinary not great, but a good selection. We were missing two people from our party because my niece was sick, so my wife decided to surprise her with pictures of the characters. To her surprise and shock one of the workers confronted her with a not so agreeable attitude to stop ‘harassing ‘ the characters who were very understanding and willing. Not sure I will be back.
Great experience! Came here with family during a Disney
Great experience! Came here with family during a Disney trip last month. We were seated in the 'back' area (behind the buffet), which I really enjoyed. It seemed a bit quieter back there than some of the other seating areas. The food, for a buffet, was surprisingly good and I liked the variety. With it being a character meal they could have easily stuck with kids favorites and bland chicken, but I saw some great salads, steaks, and even some Indian fare. Everything I had was good, including all the desserts! You'll see Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Pluto, and Goofy. Cast members came around to let us know they'd be coming out soon, which was helpful so you didn't miss anything being at the buffet. They came out one after the other, making the rounds to each table. They will definitely take pictures and sign autograph books. Afterwards, the cast member came back to confirm every character had come to our table (they had), which was nice. I did see them mingling at the buffet, so it seemed like they really made an effort to get to everyone. It is expensive, but you are paying for the character experience. Between that and the food, we felt it was worth it. The Contemporary has such a fun atmosphere as well.
Great Food
The food here was fantastic! The buffet style made it great to get as much food as possible before going to the parks. Meeting the characters while eating made the kids and I so excited!
Want some joy and laughter mixed with your meal?
My daughter has always wanted to try this restaurant and so on our last visit to see her, we decided it was time. Eating here is as much about the experience as it is the food and neither disappointed. The characters do a great job of interacting with all guests--from the youngest to the oldest and even to a service dog. Their dancing is entertaining and their posing for pictures (lots and lots of pictures) is appreciated. The brunch fare is also quite extensive; almost cruise ship like in variety and amount. It would take a pretty grumpy person to not enjoy a meal here. It is not cheap, but it is an event, a show, and food and I do not have an issue with seeing and experiencing joy while enjoying plenty of good food.
THE food was absolutely amazing.
The service was also super nice and kind.IF you go to disney this is a GAVE TO!!!!
Chef Mickey’s- A Hit!
From check in to leaving, they have it figured out and running like a well-oiled machine. Very organized. When your party sits down they will bring carafes of mango orange juice for everyone and pots of coffee with cream and sugars, right away. Then you can go grab your plate and hit the buffet. When you come back they will take specific drink orders. The entire time you are in the restaurant all the characters are coming and going and dancing. They will all stop at your table for photos. The buffet has over 70 choices and I found it to be excellent. The cheesy grits were my favorite. It was a very pleasant experience
We are locals and had friends from Chicago visiting so we
We are locals and had friends from Chicago visiting so we all went. One of the kids was here for the first time and the excitement on his face was worth every penny. Chef Mickeys is fairly expensive but arguably the best place to meet most of the Disney characters. Buffet style breakfast is pretty good.
There Are Much Better Disney Experience Dinner than This One
We went to a number of the Disney experience dinners. They are something special for everyone, especially the children. Children met Disney characters at this restaurant, but the decor and food quality was disappointing. I recommend spending your money at the other Disney experience restaurants. They outclass this one by far.
The service is superb! Every staff person, including the
The service is superb! Every staff person, including the waiters, wants every family to have a fun time. We did! They made sure all of the characters visited our table for dinner: Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy and Pluto. The characters were so energizing. My kid loved taking photos and dancing with them! We will be back and probably try brunch next time. Our dinner was good but for some it was a bit too salty. Fun atmosphere inside Disney's Contemporary Resort! The ambiance is perfect for families!
Go only for the characters
Overall, it's a disappointment. I was excited about the breakfast buffet, but although there was a good variety, ,most of the food was mediocre. I know it's all about the character meet-and-greet and that was okay.
Would give zero stars if possible.
Literally the worst customer service and the worst experience for my child. Absolutely wasted our time. Don't make reservations on any travel day, they do not stick to reservations nor do they care if they devastate children. Don't bother wasting time talking to the hotel services or calling the numbers for assistance either. They do not care. Worst way to end what was otherwise the perfect Disney trip. Never again.
We had the breakfast here and it was pretty decent all
We had the breakfast here and it was pretty decent all things considered. We didn't really come for the food, we came for Mickey and friends. Our 2 year old was thrilled and some of our best memories and pictures came from this meal, so if it's in the budget and you have small kids, it's totally worth a visit.
Pricey but what else is new at DW? Had a great time at the
Pricey but what else is new at DW? Had a great time at the character breakfast, lots of characters showed up and we had terrific photo ops. I liked the buffet, the waffles were excellent and loved this cronut thing they had. Eggs, bacon, and all the regular fixings.
Not as good as before
Been here and handful of times. Never really worth the money, but the food is always good and so is the service. It’s a great way to see all the characters. You get a meal in an extremely fun atmosphere. Do a dance every hour or so, and they make sure you see all the characters. The fried potatoes, sausage with onions and peppers, beignets, and cinnamon rolls are standouts. All delicious. Normal breakfast fare was as expected (scrambled eggs, meat, waffles, pancakes). Fruit and cheese selection was nice. Didn’t care for the cheesy potato casserole. They had a cheese sauce so made my own scrambler with meats and potatoes. This is our second time going for brunch. Last time was much better. Feel like there were more dinner options last time, and they used to have an egg casserole that was delicious that I didnt see this time. The desserts had less selection than before. Our service was very lackluster. There were 8 so maybe because she knew she’d be getting a tip regardless. Bad at getting refills and clearing plates. Asked her to take a family picture of us she said in a minute. Never came back. The table beside us overhead and came over and took it for us. We still had a fun time, and enjoyed our meals. Just not worth the price, unless you have young kids who love the characters.
Great experience w the characters!
This was a great morning for our granddaughter! She had a smile the whole time ! The characters come over to your table for a greeting and a picture. the buffet is decent, it’s kept filled and it moves along. The waitress was awesome filling up our coffee and juices continuously.
If you're going to Disney you can't miss one of the
If you're going to Disney you can't miss one of the character breakfast experiences, and Chef Mickey's is a classic. They have an extensive buffet with great choices for adults and kids. Breakfast meats, fruit, charcuterie, cereal, waffles, French toast, seasonal pancakes, biscuits and gravy, and more. The service is what you would expect at Disney and the atmosphere is fun and upbeat. You can expect to meet Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, and Pluto along with some singing and dancing.
Great Character action.
Lots of great pics w the characters!!! Food was buffet with lots of choices.
This is a great way for you and your family to meet
This is a great way for you and your family to meet multiple characters without having to wait in lines. When we visited we had Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Donald, and Pluto visit our table. We were able to take pictures and get autographs and hugs from all the characters. They also had dance parties which were super fun for the children. A cast member even asks you if you were visited by all the characters to make sure that you have a magical experience. Let's talk about food. This is a huge buffet with many options. My favorite was the mashed potatoes, prime rib, and peel and eat shrimp. There was also a lot of kid friendly food like mini corn dogs, chicken nuggets, and fruit. The salad options are extensive and the desserts on theme. There is even a vanilla and chocolate soft serve machine. Our family really had a great time and the best part was meeting Mickey and friends in a convenient and easy way. This restaurant is located in the contemporary hotel and is just a monorail ride from the Magical Kingdom park. We made reservations in advance using the Disney app. Hope you get to enjoy the food here and spend time dancing the night away with goofy.
Great food and great service
Wonderful experience. The atmosphere was energetic. We were just a group of adults but the characters still stopped by! The service was friendly and efficient; especially with plate clearing. A shout out to a fantastic hostess, Alex, and our server. The star of the evening was the food. I was shocked by this since it was a buffet. But, the salmon was prepared perfectly and I watched as items were taken off the line when there too long. It was kept well stocked even though we arrived very close to closing. The food was very very good.
I give this place 2 stars bc the food is pretty decent.
Nice selection. But my problem does not lie with the food. The blonde haired-middle aged worker named, Amanda is who I have a problem with. I visited with my dance team and we were dancing with Donald Duck as apart of the kind of "show" they do every few minutes. And my friend gave Donald Duck a high five so I thought it would fun to do that too. So I tried and the worker named Amanda glared at me and said in a very disrespectful tone, "she's dancing with you all right now" first of all, Donald Duck is a boy. Second of all, what a way to ruin the mood and disrespect customers especially at the "happiest place on earth" I wish people in this world would just be kind but you can't find people like that everywhere. Clearly you shouldn't work at Disney world if you are a sad, depressed woman in the middle of your mid life crisis.
We came here around lunch time when they were still serving
We came here around lunch time when they were still serving the breakfast buffet. We had a fabulous time! The restaurant itself was clean and spacious. My son especially enjoyed watching the monorail drive through every few minutes. The food itself was good too! They were constantly replenishing so nothing was ever empty. There were ample choices and something for everyone. The waffle and pancakes were a favorite among the kids. The adults enjoyed the omelet and egg options along with warm cinnamon rolls and biscuits with gravy. Personally the bacon was my favorite. This was a great way to meet Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy and Pluto without having to wait in a long line.
Delicious food but not so great service
The food was really good and we got to meet Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy & Pluto. The buffet is kept topped up and they don’t seem to run out. The only downside was they ran late with our booking and we were seated 25mins late. This meant we felt a little rushed as it was the end of service. Our server wasn’t overly present either to top up drinks etc.
Go for the kids and experience, food is OK
The positives are the experience and joy on your kids faces! Seeing the monorail go by in the background, dancing with goofy and hugging the characters. It is a cute time! That’s why you go. We went for breakfast and they had everything from cereal to biscuits and gravy to fresh made omelettes to fruit. Remember it’s a buffet and it’s ok…so just set your expectations accordingly. The food is edible for sure and decent but nothing spectacular.
Everyone needs to stop hating on Chef Mickeys.
My kids loved it and yes it's buffet food, but so is basically all the food at Disney. The characters were great, I think if my kids were a little older (currently 1 & 3) they'd have spent a little more time with them but they aren't interested in autographs and don't talk much. My son was just trying to show everyone his stuffy and get one shy hug each. I'd still recommend it! We did get snubbed twice but they came back around - my son's face though when he was so ready to see them
Great way to meet the Disney characters
We have eaten at Chef Mickey's on 2 previous times and the food has improved dramatically. It has always been such an amazing experience being able to meet so many characters, but this time, the food was great too. Definitely worth doing, even if it is just to meet the Disney characters. Saves you having to wait in any queues in the parks to see them.
Two children under 6 Three adults Breakfast $300 Food like
Two children under 6 Three adults Breakfast $300 Food like Golden Coral Way too much for eggs cereal and pancakes The characters do come around Definitely not worth it
It had been a long time since we dined at Chef Mickeys.
We don't make it part of the itinerary every Disney trip because it's expensive and kind of a one and done type experience for us. Our youngest is four and we just brought him for the first time. He loved it. The breakfast options were great and I felt as though there is something there for everyone. The waitress was great and refiled our drinks quickly. The complimentary juice was delicious. I had a peach Bellini which was also very good, if you haven't been to Chef Mickeys I highly recommend giving it a shot. I took one star off because we had a reservation but still didn't get called for about 25 minutes past our scheduled time.
Great experience.
The staff made sure we got to meet and see all the characters. The visits are short but that's to be expected. Our toddlers loved it! Food was good for a buffet and they had many options.
Great time
The character breakfast was a hit with our 2.5 yr old granddaughter. Breakfast was tasty and plentiful and we never felt rushed. All of the characters were attentive and fun. We had a blast.
Very rushed, worried we would miss the characters while we got food.
This was not my favorite character meal. Unfortunately for the price (especially for a party of 7), the characters were so rushed!! When our waiter came they said to go enjoy the buffet, but when looking back to our seats, several characters were in our section skipping our table, so Im not sure why we were told to go eat. It just produced this anxious experience for me to have anyone leave to go get food and miss anyone. One time my daughter went to get seconds and missed Donald. But I asked if he could come back in a minute and I guess it was a no because he never stopped back. Also my little one cried when goofy got to our table so he signed our book and left, even though my other 2 wanted a photo with him, he was like Im out. I told our waiter the 2 that we never got to meet because we were gone and it seemed very inconvenient that they had to stop back to our table and took a long time, like we were done eating. Maybe they were hoping we would just leave. Food was fine, nothing special but not bad, but that's not the reason people go here. I personally would meet them at the parks, you get a way more personal experience and more time with them or go to a meal that you are waited on and don't have to leave for a buffet.

My daughter has always wanted to try this restaurant and so on our last visit to see her, we decided it was time.

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Payouts Blocked Because of Sell Through Rate
Does anyone know how AT plans to handle cases where a seller is quitting the platform but has a sell through rate <25%? The error message I got said to fill more bids or find other ways to increase the rate.
Is AT really going to block sellers from withdrawing their money? Especially revenue made before the sell through rate was introduced??
Tune into NBC News - Top Story Tonight 7:40p ET
Let’s go. Get more people placing bids!
I will give you 50% of ALL of my PROFITS if you teach me how to make profits?
LOL. Thank you The New Yorker.
Appointment
Transferring reservations is not supported in AT. Why not just use the name in the AT screenshot?
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome
to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
