I am shocked by a couple of things in this thread.
First, all the negative reviews on Alfredo's. We ate there in Dec. 2001 and it was pretty good. I have even recommended it to some people that have gone to WDW since. I wonder if the decline in quality is a recent development?
Second, that only one person mentioned Mama Melroses. That place is terrible. We ate there two times (on two different trips. The second time was to give it a second chance) and were disappointed both times. Olive Garden has better Italian food than Mama Melroses. And the service was sub-par.
Other than that, almost every Disney meal has been OK. It is hard to say that any Disney meal is worth what you pay because the prices are so inflated ($15 for two burgers, two cokes, and two fries?) but, other than Mama Melroses, we've never walked out of a Disney restaurant griping or feeling like we had been ripped off.

The prices are overly inflated and in fact, I have almost come to swear that restraunts like Crystal Palace serve the exact same food as other places like CRT. We had the prime Rib at CRT and at Crystal Palace and it was no different. On nice occassions we'll eat at a nice place but, on regular meals we're sticking to the places where we can eat until we drop.

I have to agree completely with this person's commen that Disney meals are not worth what you pay for. Sure, some have atmosphere worth mentioning, San Angel Inn (my fav.). However, I still feel like Im being served mass produced food, which I am. Back in the back it's probably basically like a major buffet and they just dip out some mashed potatoes on to your plate.

Don't forget Tony's Town Square in the MK. Bad food, worse service. :zipit:

I would have to say Wolfgang Puck Cafe and Akershus in Norway were my worst.

I'm not defending Alfredo's in any way, but I have no love for chain restaurants like Olive Garden where people come to order fettuccini alfredo and call it Italian.

Well actually in the UK you are expected to pay. In fact poor quality and / or small portions or food not actually resembling the menu is not a requirement. The law stands on the side of the restaurateur and withholding payment for a bad meal is classed as theft. All this was discussed on a radio show recently where they discussed the service standards in UK shops and eateries.
