Ohanas at the Polynesian Resort at Disney World

Ohana is an absolutely wonderful restaurant at Disney World located inside of the Polynesian resort. Out of all the restaurants at Disney, I am going to recommend this to be the one you must go to. Ohana's is an all you can eat Hawaiian cuisine restaurant. The cost is $36 for adults and $16 for kids. So, our family of five ate here for $120. In my opinion this is a great deal. Wonderful food, awesome atmosphere, and you can see the fireworks at the Magic Kingdom.

 You do not need a park ticket to eat here. Parking is also free for guests dining at the hotels restaurants.  So, if you are in Orlando go eat here.

Here is what to expect:

‘Ohana Welcome Bread

Mixed Greens Salad with a Honey-Lime Dressing

Pork Dumplings and Chicken Wings

Meats are grilled over an open fire in the center of the restaurant including spicy peel and eat shrimp, pork loin, chicken skewer, and sirloin steak.

Noodles and stir fried veggies

At the end of your meal you will receive a heaping portion of bread pudding and it's to die for. I'm a dessert person and this is one of the best bread puddings I've ever had.

Flying Fish Cafe at Disney World

Flying Fish Cafe at Disney's Boardwalk

Flying Fish Cafe is an upscale restaurant located near the Boardwalk Resort at Disney World next door to Kat Cora’s restaurant Kouzinna. Flying Fish is one of the more expensive places to dine at Disney World. Our bill for the five of us, including tip was about $170. I actually thought it would be over $200, so it wasn’t as expensive as I thought it would be.









It was a great place to take the kids. Although you will be dining there for a while, it’s not nearly as long as California Grill or Jiko. The kid meal prices ranged from $7 - $12, which is not bad at all. There is a slight dress code. I recommend collard shirts for boys and a sundress for girls.
 

















The inside of the restaurant was small, but really neat and different. There are flying fish hanging from the ceiling. A bar wraps around the kitchen where participate in the Chef’s Tasting Wine Dinner a 5-course prix fixe menu with wine and you can interact with the culinary team.

Flying Fish Cafe Desserts

The highlight of our dining experience here was dessert. I had read about Mickey’s Chocolate Puzzle dessert and all the reviews were spot on. It’s an awesome dessert for kids. .It’s made of white chocolate pieces that your kids put together to make a picture of Mickey. Then they can paint the chocolate picture with sugar paints. It also comes with a cupcake.

Beaches and Cream Soda Shop - A Disney World Restaurant

The Kitchen Sink, Disney World's largest dessert!

Beaches and Cream Soda Shop is a small restaurant in the Beach Resort at Disney World along the
Boardwalk outside of Epcot. It's a great place to have a hotdog or burger and ice cream. Often times there is a wait to be seated, but we went late at night around 9 PM and were seated right way. We did not have a reservation. We sat out on the patio outside overlooking the pool. Next time I would sit inside, it seemed way more exciting inside.

We went here for ice cream one night and ordered the Kitchen Sink. They literally serve your serve your 10 scoops of ice cream and every topping they have in a little metal kitchen sink. Even with all five of us eating we couldn't finish it!

It cost $26.99 which may seem like a lot, but when you can feed a family of 5-8 people with it, it's actually an affordable option. It's probably cheaper than buying 8 people individual ice creams.

I highly recommend taking your kids here to get the kitchen sink. My kids having stop talking about it and it's been well over a month since we were there. I think they will always have memories of the lights  and sirens going off when they bring it out and the funny announcement they make about the monstrous dessert. 

You should have seen my kids’ faces when they saw it! If I had known ahead of time about the production they make when serving it and how my kids were going to react I would have videotaped it!

FYI - As an added bonus there is an arcade next door and it's very reasonable.
