New Roundup Rodeo BBQ sit-down restaurant coming to TSL

[UNCgolf]

Do you just eat signature restaurants in the parks then.? Because everything else will be found to be better at DS.

We don't eat in the parks too much other than snacks (and at EPCOT). Like you said, the food is generally better across the board at DS and is cheaper too. Even the QS locations (like Polite Pig) are better than most of the TS restaurants in the parks. I do like going to some of the themed restaurants in the parks, but the Roundup Rodeo theming (at least based on concept art) would actually make me less likely to eat there instead of more likely.

why on earth do people care about drawings on a wall in a restaraunt?i go to eat, not critique art work.

Theming is a major part of the experience at Disney (in every way; not solely restaurants), especially considering the food is generally mediocre. Without decent theming, there's no reason for me to eat at Roundup Rodeo when I can pay less money for a much better version of that food at Disney Springs.

Why would you knowingly choose to pay more money for worse quality food without some other differentiating factor?

It’s in a theme park, not a Denny’s.

So if homecoming in DS had 3rd grade drawings you would not eat there,?

That would be awesome imo.

False comparison.

Homecoming isn't in a theme park, for one, so I'm not looking for theme. Plus, the food there is good. There's like a 99% chance that the BBQ will be worse at Roundup Rodeo than Polite Pig despite costing more.

If Roundup Rodeo had great theming that can function as a draw to help make up for the cost/quality difference, but if it doesn't, why would I want to pay more for worse food?

not to argue about polite pig, but their butcher board costs 42.00 and only has 2 sides. this one gets you 4 sides, and we do not know the cost, if it is true family style it should be all you can eat, cannot imagine a family of 4 only getting a shared platter,especially if you have teen age boys, just my opinion.

There's no way that Andy would eat portions that large. It takes me out of the theme of Toy Story Land.

/s

Unexpectedly the guests and food are both toy sized. You win this round Disney. Touche.

Looks like a great way to gain weight.

Price is going to be similar to Boma and Ohana. Expect about 55 per Adult and 35 per Child. Protein is not cheap and it is family style. I have heard as high as 65.

I correct in reading the name for the pork ribs is inspired by a live pig? That’s

I guess that depends a little on your definition of "Live Pig":

Cannot imagine prices that high,especially if it is not a character dinning which I have heard nothing about it being one

 

[buckeyegator]

any ideas on seating capacity? think it will be a hard or easy reservation to get after the initial weeks?hope they allow for some walk up, spur of the moment dinning.

 

[J4546]

Any recent pics?

The portions look nice for the promotional content but I will be curious to see if they have the same portion sizes a few weeks later.

Yeah,have never seen actual food and portion pictures match up with real food,either in fast-food or sit down

Whenever food is mentioned on these here discussion boards, the dining commandos come out to speculate about the dollar-to-calorie ratio of every dish on the menu.

I'm glad someone's keeping the parks honest about their food offerings!

Maybe I misunderstood, but I thought it was all you can eat?
