“Nice little place to eat on animal kingdom“

“We booked a night here in a savannah view room . The room was great , very spacious , very clean with a balcony with a stunning view of the Arusha savannah . We saw so many animals - giraffe , zebra , wildebeest , gazelle , pelicans , ostrich and a variety of birds . It truly was perfect. We used the quick service for breakfast so we could enjoy it on our balcony and this was perfect . I hope we can stay for longer in the future .“

“Awesome restaurant Great vegan options.“

“Great service and the breakfast is one of the best on Disney property!“

“Fantastic! A bit pricey but a very welcomed spot of sophistication in the theme park. We found scotch offerings worthy of the best pubs anywhere let alone in a Disney park... in fact, I cannot recall another inside-the-park location that serves scotch. The cheese and cured meats plate was strangely delicious. Quite a nice low-key location to slow down and enjoy company in an otherwise busy theme park.“

“Food so good I forgot to take a picture of it.

My dad and I both agreed the duck fried rice was absolutely stunning. The glaze on the duck leg is something very similar to a hoisin sauce, and it was cooked to absolute perfection. The rice itself was great, with these cucumbers that had a nice taste and crunch and some peppers for a great, surprising spicy note. My mother had the steak, and said it was wonderful. I had a small piece of it, and it was certainly a great taste. I'd recommend the duck over the steak though, there's many places in the resort for great steak!

Desserts were impeccable; the little cookie on the cream tasted like a burnt samoa and that's a flavor I never knew I needed! The drinks were also great. I had the non-alcoholic orange specialty, it tasted just like an orange dreamsicle.

Only small service hiccup was when checking in for our reservation, the CM didn't actually check us in so we sat for 15 minutes past our reservation time before we noticed on the app we weren't checked in. When we brought it up, another CM promptly fixed it. No worries there!

Overall, HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Great use of a table service credit if you're on the DDP by the way; $45-55 a person meal/soda only before upgrades.“

“Had their entire menu over a week of mobile app orders.
Best entree- any bowl with the kale side salad/protein/rice. Beef stew bowl was great. Chicken tenders and fries all solid. Beware the African curry was different every time we ordered- sometimes sweet sometimes super spicy. Burger is pretty good but small. Didn't love the falafel (dry), the butternut squash soup, or the any of the cake dessert- the Mickey ice cream sandwich was the best dessert. We did the special disney refill cups, super convenient for coffee throughout the day and afternoon. The tea is awful, coffee is great, soft drinks standard. Staff are wonderful and mobile app ordering super convenient and accurate with orders. Inside is a bit gaudy for seating area but outside tables great vibe. Pro tip. If you need to leave your hotel room for some laptop writing or work time in morning or evening, the Mara outdoor tables are the best private place to work. All lobby areas have people walking around you, whereas Mara most people in early AM or PM are doing pick up orders.“

“What an awesome experience. Great food and the animal viewing can’t be beat“

“Guirlène was very friendly, courteous, and professional; and the food was really great. I highly recommend Kalalou to anyone visiting Orlando. Bon manje.“

“We had such an amazing experience at Jiko. The food was absolutely phenomenal, we really enjoyed the fillet mignon and the Halibut, both pictured below. As a starter we got the scallop and pork belly, which while a small portion, packed alot of flavour.
Overall, the food was extremely filling and we couldn’t fault it.

Service was impeccable and all the staff we interacted with were lovely and very attentive to what we needed

I would highly recommend this place as one to visit.“
