Yep I updated the original article when I had pricing
I would expect so, although I don’t know for sure,

Sorry....I'm a day late and a dollar short.....
I thought it was very good when I ate there a year ago. Don't be scared off -- go and enjoy. And if you don't enjoy, then you can try to scare others off should you choose.

Yea I'm gonna give it a shot and see how it is. If it fails, then I'll just not do it again.

This sounds like a perfect change for me. It matches the way I dine (I really want to try that escargot!), and the price is far less than I'd pay for the same items at most WDW restaurants. And I can have a glass or 2 of fine wine in the MK. What's not to like?
I would agree.
BoG was pretty good when it first opened, but dinner really took a quality dive pretty fast. That accompanied with it's insane popularity made us avoid the place after the first year.
As long as the quality is there with this new menu, it will be back on my list.

I'm curious about this now. I've been to BoG 2 times for dinner- the first 4 days after it opened and the second a few years later...after that second time, i've been skipping it since it felt cheaper and less fancy. However, this menu reminds me a tiny bit of some of the dishes from Disney Cruise Line's french inspired restaurants (Lumiere's, Triton's, Royal Table and Royal Court).
Can't wait to try this next time i'm at WDW!

From another source, this change will end the practice (abuse?) by people taking up a dining reservation only to order dessert. So now people will have to order the whole enchilada-er, um-three course meal to see the inside of Beast’s castle and meet with him.

I’ve had one really good experience here and two decent experiences. Since the cost in dining credits will go up, my expectations in turn will go up.
EDIT: Per Disney, this is only an “enhanced” menu. No mention is made that BOG is becoming a signature restaurant. The most comparable meal will be CRT. Based on my experience there, I will not expect higher quality food or service.

I have little doubt that practice had a hand in this change. The question of "Can we just order desert" must be asked at least 50 times a day in Facebook's Disney groups.

I'm glad we are going the first week in June and already have our reservations. We WOULD NOT be spending two credits for dinner at BOG. Wasn't that long ago that a single credit covered the same appetizer, entre, and desert.
I think another poster has it right; since they are maxed out on capacity why not double the price and see what happens. One thing that will happen is that if we want to spend two credits on a meal it will be at a signature restaurant like the California Grill or Narcoosee's, not BOG.

I wonder how many Guests will demand that they be seated in the Grand Ballroom for the full experience now that it's 2 points on their DDP.

Good point. I wonder if at least the relatively underwhelming Castle Gallery will be rethemed to “Grand Ballroom 2” to ensure guest satisfaction.

Will this require prepayment like CRT?

There’s no indication by Disney that BOG will become a signature restaurant. Think more like Cinderella’s Royal Table, which is two credits but not a signature restaurant.
