@Andrew C and
@DisneyFans4Life you'll get 1000 people on this site saying they love Chef Mickey's, and 1000 people saying they hate it. Personally I think it's a must do...just for the experience and atmosphere alone. We have been eating there for the past 15 yrs or so and have always liked it. The past few times we have gone with a range of ages from little kids under 10, to teens and grandparents, and everyone has enjoyed it. Keep in mind it is very hectic but its a good crazy kind of fun! Hope u both like it!
