We have made an ADR here for our quick 48 hour Disney jaunt in September with my DW's Aunt who is 60 years old and has never been to Disney. Just wondering what your experience was and the quality of the food.
We are staying at an Animal Kingdom Lodge Jambo House Savanah view room for one night. We are not going into the parks and instead just going to enjoy what the rest of the property and Animal Kingdom Lodge, in particular, has to offer.
My DW and I went when it first opened. I ordered the fish wrapped in banana leaf which was merely OK, but nothing to write home about. The rest of the meal was quite good. We just haven't been able to make it back there recently though.
We went in 2009, loved the place and the eating right beside the animals!
The food was pretty good, and the chai mousse was exquisite!

We've been. Not a huge fan. The food was mediocre, and the server totally clueless (which is pretty unusual for Disney).
Haven't been back. :shrug: (The decor is the best thing about the place)!

Next year we will go back at lunchtime as I really like the look of the tandoori naan bread sandwiches!
It is a lovely setting and we have had very good servers both visits :)
Closer to when it first opened.Quote:

Clearly, the only answer for it is for you to go and then do a review for us!
:yes: Oh yes please and some photos would be nice as well :DQuote:
