Comment : We had lunch here and it was
wonderful. We sat outside, so we could take in the sites as we
ate. I had the Honey Mustard Grilled Chicken
Sandwich--delicious. Note, there are no french fries at this
establishment, but the accompanying chips are tasty. The
sandwiches are so big, you really don't miss the french fries.
My husband had the cheeseburger, which was huge!! I tasted it
and it was delicious, and cooked a perfect medium well. Our
daughter had the cheeseburger off of the kid's menu. The kid's
menu had a good selection, and all meals were served with chips and a
drink. You can't go here without tasting some of the brew which
is brewed on site. We had the Millineun Lager in suvenier
glasses, it had just the right bite. Our server was new, but
very attentive and friendly. We can't wait to return, and have
told all of our friends to be sure not to miss it!!!

Comment : This is by far the best deal for your
dollar on Disney property. You get great food with good size
portions, good service and it is reasonably priced. We went back twice
and was not disappointed. Targeted toward the sports fan but fun
for the whole family (all ages). Enjoy.

Comment : It's a sports bar, food is what you
would expect at a sports bar. Worth going to see the place
though. They were tearing down the set from an ESPN production when we
visited. Several ESPN personalities had just left and a NBA
player (beats me who) was signing autographs elsewhere in the
restaurant. They've also got some computers with internet
access available. Nice place to check email.

Comment : Went for an early lunch and were
served about 5 minutes after we ordered. Had the Hot Wing Salad,
excellent. Atmosphere was great but you might want to go later in the
day so there is actually some sports on TV.

Comment : I think this is one of the best deals
anywhere on the property. The food is great, better than a Hard
Rock or a Planet Hollywood, and it is reasonably priced. A
chicken sandwich , which is two regular sized breasts is only $8
with fries. If you catch a late lunch crowds are nowhere to be
seen. Dinner is a little heavier. Be sure to arrive very
early if you plan to stay for a big sporting event. Highly
recommended!

Comment : The food is excellent! You can
have seafood, pasta or meat, but I suggest going with the seafood.
Menu changes daily depending on what seafood is available.
Definitely splurge on dessert -- lava cake with
tarragon ice cream is the best!

Comment : It was an incredible experience! Great
service beginning with the woman who took our reservation (maitre
de'ss?) and continuing with the waiter. The food was great--not just
good food but an artistic experience. We ended up going back every
other night; (we couldn't afford every night or else...)

Comment : I had 2 really wonderful meals on my most recent trip to WDW
and Flying Fish was one of them. I had Scallops with shrimp rissoto
and it was excellent. There were 4 of us that ate there and none of us
had a bad meal. Although it is expensive it is worth it!

Comment : My wife and I go to the Orlando area
at least 10 times a year and we dine at the Flying Fish every trip.
The Flying fish is truely an elegant dining experience from the
reservation to desert. The servers are great, the managers friendly
and helpful, and the food is definetly five (5) star quality. I would
recommend that anyone who plans on visiting WDW to try to fit the
Flying Fish into at least one meal. Hi, to Brad, Bradley and all the
gang at FF.

Comment : Had dinner and breakfast.
Breakfast was an all-you-can eat buffet with the usual fare plus some
interesting Mediterranean specialities. Dinner was great.
The appetizers are unusual and tasty. Best way to experience
Spoodles is go with lots of people and sample all the appetizers.

Comment : On 2/14/99 I had a great lunch here
before my trip home. The service time was perfect and it was fun to
watch the meals being prepped in the open kitchen. The two dips served
as appetizers were flavorful. I had a spicy sefood pasta entree and a
refreshing sangria granita to finish the meal. The serving sizes were
just right and prices were reasonable.

Comment : It was really one of the chefs that
made our meal wonderful, not our waiter. His service was spotty at
best. We waited for several minutes before one of the chefs noticed
our plight, as our waiter walked right by us to another table without
even letting us know he'd be with us in a few moments. When he went
back up to the kitchen area, she motioned to us and let him know that
we were ready to order and had been seated for awhile. He turned
around and finally acknowledged our presence. After that, he made
himself available to us reasonably well.
The food was spectacular! I can't say enough
good words about the Lavosh bread bowl or any of the other tapas
dishes we ordered. The same chef was piling up three desserts and
caught us eyeing them hungrily. She waved at us and we waved back. She
leaned out and said, "This is the dessert tower, you should order
it!" After we protested that we were too full we said we would
order a couple of desserts, but not three. (Goodness!)
When our waiter came back to take our dessert
order, she came around and stopped him at our table
and told him he should get us the Dessert Tower. We said there was no
way we could handle that! She
said we could take the leftovers home. We ended up ordering only two
desserts and got to watch as she prepared them for us. When they were
brought to us we thought we had gone to heaven they were so good. She
came back around and said we HAD to try two of their sorbets! Before
we could protest she ran to the back and dished out two scoops of
mango and passion fruit sorbet and had them before us,
saying "It gives me something to do!" with a smile. She then
left again.
I can't recall ever feeling more stuffed in
my life. The chef really made up for what could have been a lousy
experience and she and Spoodles should be commended for a delicious
meal!

Comment : My husband and I went here for dinner
on our honeymoon and loved it! The menu is very eclectic and
offers some change from what you find in other (particularly in- park)
restaurants. The pizza that we had was amazing!! This is a
really fun place to try something new!
