We ate here the third week of August 2023. What a disappointment. I haven't been here in probably 10 years, and I'm so sad about the decline in food/service. We had overcooked chicken, tough steak/beef, the noodles were in a super sweet glaze so that's all they tasted like. The best part of the meal was dessert. After being seated, it was a good 10 minutes just to be acknowledged by our server and were only checked no when they were dumping our various courses on the table. They also sat us at a table near the entrance which was already kind of dark and they proceeded to dim the lights while we ate, which became kind of comical at one point, because we couldn't see what we were eating. Until I hear of a change in the food and read several positive reviews going forward, this is a never again expense for us.

Pros:

Live entertainer/musician

Cons:

Food

Being a Florida Resident and Disney Annual Passholder we like to tell the truth and not be overwhelmed by the 'Magic' at Disney World.
That being said; we had both the Breakfast and Dinner Buffets Prior Pandemic and have to say it was nothing short of being GREAT!.
Been to both since then and couple comments:
1. Should NOT be called a Buffet any longer, Family Style fits realistically
2. LIMITED choices just standard, Beef, Chicken, Shrimp along with Noodles and Potstickers ending with Bread Pudding(Pineapple)
........ Happy Service but Slow and Sprint refills which should have been Club Soda
........ Chicken.... Ehh had better, so-so
........ Shrimp very good but should have a better way, had to rip apart the skin is very messy
........ Noodles, over cooked and salty
........ Potstickers okay but you can buy them frozen same quality
........ Bread.... Mushy DOUGH
........ Pineapple Bread Pudding was very good but if you don't like bread pudding there is no other desert

Breakfast
....... Not much to mention except Scrambled Eggs, Bacon, Sausage and biscuits

So for BUFFET and PRICE($60) we had to rate it a 2 STAR Meal.... been there once NEVER GOING BACK

Pros:

If not a multiple visitor the view is nice along with the resort

Cons:

For the Price - Quality, Quantity and Versatility of items no choice so this is a Family Style at best... NOT A BUFFET

I totally understand that this is a busy and highly sought after place for people to dine at WDW, but that feeling definitely makes its way into the experience. Tables are packed in, feels like you’re being led to a trough. And the sheer amount of food is absolutely insane. We are not American so perhaps not accustomed to the portion size but there were three of us eating and we had enough food to feed 10 people. Most of it went to waste, which was such a sad way to leave our experience.

Pros:

Bread pudding

Cons:

Way, way too much food for a normal human to consume. Everything was either very salty or very sugary. The so called famous noodles basically taste like they’re tossed in a sugar sauce.

We had been to Ohana several times in the past. It had been a few years since our most recent visit. We were a little concerned that it may not be as good as it once was. We were so pleased to find that it was SO good still!! We had an odd time reservation - like 4:15. A little early for dinner but it is what was available. We just had had a snacky lunch late morning in preparation for our Ohana dinner. So when we got there we were ready to eat. 🙂 We were seated in a timely manner and we had a nice spot for our table. We are a party of two and honestly in the past from time to time we've been given a bad table because they can squeeze a small two person table against a wall somewhere, but in this case, we were against a side window and that was fine and good. At any rate, they immediately brought us our drinks and then the food starting coming. It all came along fairly quickly. We had to just kind of pace our own selves to make sure we tood time to enjoy everything. The salad is great. The appetizers were wonderful - loved the dumplings and wings, but those noodles - they are the BEST and I am not even a noodle person. They have outstanding flavor. I ate a lot of them! The meats of course were great as well. The steak, chicken and shrimp. I liked the steak best. Everything was warm and fresh and so good. The bread pudding was delightful and we loved it as much as we had in the past. We were also celebrating an anniversary and they brought us a cute little plate with a couple of little mini macaron cookies and chocolate pieces, which was a very nice little plus for us. Our waitress was very sweet and attentive. This was a great experience for us. Again, we were slightly anxious that the quality would not be what it once was, but we were so happy that all was well. No complaints and so glad we went!

Pros:

delicious food!

Cons:

pricey

Very slow service. We waited half an hour to be seated even though we had booked and then we were put at the back of the restaurant behind a pillar so we couldn’t see the fireworks. Our server gave us the drinks menu but then didn’t come back to take the orders. After someone else brought us our starters we had to flag someone down to get our drinks. The starters were nice but the mains were overcooked and chewy at this point our server appeared again to bring us our puddings and the bill. The bread pudding was nice but it would have been nice to have some choice for the people in my family that didn’t like it.

Pros:

Noodles, wings and Bread pudding

Cons:

The staff and if you get a bad table it’s very bad. Not worth the price

Probably the best meal we had the entire trip. It’s all you care to enjoy. If you want more of something specific they will happily bring it. Pace yourself, it’s a lot of food if you want to try it all. The noods are everything they have been hyped to be as well as the bread pudding. I tried getting a reservation every day starting at 60 days. Using a dining reservation service I was able to finally get a reservation the day of. So if you can’t get it at the 60 day mark don’t give up.

Pros:

Amazing food!

Cons:

Hard to get that reservation

The food at ‘Ohana is delicious and you can have as much as you want. The service was also outstanding. The view of magic kingdom is also great! I can imagine that there would be great fireworks views if you could time it right. Despite being insanely busy the server always immediately refilled my glass without me having to ask and they always made sure we had the food we wanted. The downsides to this restaurant is that it is pricey and it’s hard to eat enough of the food to really make the cost feel worth it. Additionally, the food may not be for everyone. Picky eaters and little kids may not be willing to eat some of it.

Pros:

Food is good, great views

Cons:

Food may not be for everyone, price is high

Growing up, I am now (23F) have been to Disney 23 times. Ohana was absolutely one of my favorites. I remember getting a Leieu when I walked in. The meat came around on skewers. Stitch would come out. The announcer would get the whole restaurant engaged with a huge ALOHAAAA. And is kids would run around sweeping coconuts on the ground in a race. It was magical and filled with the best Hawaiian ambiance. It’s now 2022. We went on October 19 2022. NONE OF THAT EXISTS. firstly, it was overly packed with tables. Everything was served to table and the server would leave and not come back for awhile. Now the food itself. The salad and bread okay. The dumplings were cold. The wings (usually my favorite) were so salty I couldn’t enjoy more than two. Noodles were okay. Broccolini was flavorless, but at least fresh. Then the meats. The steak was so raw (and I love a good medium rare) that no shot we had to send it back. Knives can’t cut through it either. They ended up cutting the steak up into small slivers and cooking it which just ruins the whole point of sending it back and a wrong temp again. The chicken was good but over seasoned. The shrimp under seasoned. There bread pudding was not nearly as soft and warm as it used to be. For the price we paid for what used to be was one of the most disappointing meal I’ve had in Disney since 2019. Let alone the entire trip we had a reservation everyday. But ohana isn’t worth it unless you have the money to waste on an below average meal and the magic it now lacks.

Pros:

We had a beautiful view of the castle

Cons:

The price, the lack of magic it used to have, no flower necklaces, waitress MIA, way overpriced for below average meal.
