@Drew the Disney Dude is at the wrong park.

 

[Crown&roser]

The menu needs construction walls more than anything.

 

[TheCoasterNerd]

Any estimates how long these walls will stay up? Hopefully they're down by July 20 (that's when I go, and I'm selfishly hoping nothing is gonna be under refurb so that my once-per-decade trip can be perfect lol)

Is there a connection to Lady and the Tramp? I ordered pasta here thinking there was. Btw , pasta and sauce was nothing special.

I thought that was Tony's Town Square at the front of Main Street.


The Plaza restaurant I always forget is there and have no clue about its menu or anything

Thats Tonys.

Thats Tonys.

I love Tony's more than anything, purely because you get to hear Southern ladies scream in Italian accents.

Honestly, just expand the Ice Cream Parlor. It’s extremely popular and too small.

100%

In an ideal Blue Sky World, this gets "absorbed" into the Ice-Cream parlor for additional capacity/space and Casey's gets moved to where the theater was gonna go for more space/seating. I really don't understand why they continue to operate the Plaza. Rather small for a modern TSR location.

That is actually a brilliant idea, they could even add some indoor seating. This way my ice cream isn't melting all over my face and hands.

 

[TheCoasterNerd]

It's a gorgeous building, but I agree. It's nothing special food-wise. Also, I hope someday they do something to fix the terrible sightlines over the backstage gate. You shouldn't be able to see backstage infrastructure, staircases, and other things that don't fit the theming, over a gate - that's the point of the gate! I say they do something like DLR has and build another two story building there with the gate as "doors" on the bottom floor.

It's a reasonably priced option and the food is fine. The kids meals are a good deal too, which the ice cream desserts. I'd rather not lose an actual restaurant for a place to eat ice cream or hot dogs. If anything, I'd prefer it to be bigger.

Absolutely. I imagine some bar seating serving malts, but keep the decor! It's really pretty. I don't want them to ruin it like Beaches & Cream.

With MK bursting at the seams, I wish they can finally build a dedicated & always open bypass street that is mostly covered and themed well (not just trees).

It would be amazing to get those side areas like DLP has but that will never happen. (NOTE: I've only seen photos but it looks like that's what they are)

Construction walls somewhere in WDW.

 

[Bocabear]

the only change that I would appreciate ( I like the Plaza for the little respite from the crowds.) If and I man if they expanded the Ice Cream parlor to have table service Sundaes and food... Like Beaches and cream...but table service...Not waiting in line at a counter and then madly looking for a place to sit if there is one... There needs to be places here and there that provide a little rest from the mayhem...That is why this location has always been brilliant.

I love the Plaza Restaurant as it is and hope it doesn't change anytime soon.
All of the outside tables and chairs are for eating ice cream.
And to my understanding, it was carved out of space that was originally the ice cream parlor back in the 1970s, when management actually added locations instead of squeezing everyone into a few operating spaces.

I'm hardly a pixie duster, but it's very much a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation. If they don't keep up on maintenance, they'll be chastised for being neglectful and allowing bad show. If they do maintenance, they'll be chastised for walls and sometimes the venue being closed.

Can we ask them to be faster? Like Universal is.
