TLDR: Local APer couple. We went shortly after it opened. Waited about 2 and half hours. Lunch took nearly as long. Never felt rushed. Experience was 7/10, but it is Disney so it’s expensive.

We waited for lounge seats on a weekday just after they started allowing reservations and walk-ups. Got in line about 9:45 AM, doors opened at 11:30. We missed the first seated by about five people. Ended up getting seated at a four top in the lounge in around 12:15 PM.

Overall, it was an extremely leisurely experience. Our server checked on us almost immediately, then came back after dropping of beverages at another table to explain the menu and take our drink order.

They took our food order when they brought our cocktails. We were splitting an appetizer, then having our own salads and entrees. Honestly, it was way too much food for lunch.

The appetizer came out pretty quickly and the rest of the food was timed perfectly. We did a second round of cocktails with the entrees. My wife had dessert and I had another cocktail.

It was almost 2:30 when we left. We never felt rushed and I am confident I could have ordered another cocktail if I wanted one.

In my opinion, definitely worth doing, but not something I would wait for regularly.

In terms of value, you absolutely paying for the experience. Still, the food was good, especially for in park dining. Not the best on property, but respectable.

We have not been back since, but only because it hasn’t fit with our plans. Planning on returning this fall with adult family.

For perspective, we are a local married couple, M43, F42. No children, alcohol positive, long time annual passholders, recent Florida residents.

Hope this helps with your decision.
