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:

Alright, look here buckos! (I say that with much love, please don’t be sad).
You have almost certainly heard plenty about ‘Ohana. Some people have probably told you that it is mind blowing. Others have probably claimed that it is overrated. I’m here to tell you that ‘Ohana is, quite simply, DE-FREAKING-LICIOUS. No need to read other reviews, just trust me. You don’t know me, you might not trust me. But in this I implore you: Trust me (and the countless other people who love ‘Ohana, they’re nice too)
The family-style fare here is varied and well-made. My wife and I are much bigger fans of the starters than we are of the entrees. The bread to start is GREAT, sweet and fluffy. The pot-stickers are simple and delicious. The wings have great flavor and are well-cooked. And then…..the noodles. You’ve probably heard about them. And they are. TASTY.
The entrees are well-made and solid as well. We personally liked the chicken more than the steak, but we could have stuck with the starters for the whole meal and been perfectly happy with that.
But friends, let me tell you about the greatest way to end a meal of all time: ‘Ohana Bread Pudding. Literally something that we often dream about even months after we eat it. The bread pudding is soft and flavorful, and then you add the caramel sauce and have the ice cream on top? Just freaking amazing! We were STUFFED from the meal and yet still pushed through to eat the bread pudding and could not have been happier. I’ve never sat and just marveled at the food I just put in my mouth more than I did with the ‘Ohana Bread Pudding. Okay, I’ll stop now.
Atmosphere-wise, ‘Ohana is great as well! The Polynesian Resort is awesome in the first place, and ‘Ohana is no exception. There are lots of tables by the windows that overlook the little volcano pool area which is cool and even a view of the castle across the lake. You aren’t guaranteed one of these tables, but request one if you can, because it’s pretty gorgeous! Additionally, there are often musicians who will come around the restaurant with a Ukelele and do some singing, which is fun too!
Side note: I recommend the Lapu Lapu cocktail. It comes in a pineapple and is nice and tasty! Expensive, but great!
The one thing we would recommend would be to use your requesting powers wisely. If you especially like one dish, request more of it. I will say that I felt bad for wasting some of the entree portions that we got, so if you know you’re not going to be a big fan of one of the dishes, request to omit it.
SO much food, but SO much deliciousness here! GO!
Pros:
The flavors at play in many of the dishes here are just delightful Great atmosphere, with some great views THE. BREAD. PUDDING!!!Cons:
The entrees are a bit underwhelming compared to the starters and dessert Can be REALLY tough to get a reservationReviewed by Steveo107 Review Date: 01/31/2022

We finally got a reservation to Ohana and it was absolutely worth it. Go hungry! There wasn't a bad thing brought to our table, but I can say the noods hype was real. I would eat a bucket of Ohana noodles. We had a beautiful view of the nightly fireworks and it made our meal even more magical.
Pros:
Great food, great service, lovely viewCons:

After watching Molly's recent review of Ohana with the shrimp casserole and different breads, I was a bit skeptical about going to Ohana for the first time, but still very excited. I mean I heard so many good things about the Ohana noods. Yet, when I got there I noticed the menu had changed a bit from Molly's video. The Hawaiian rolls were back with delicious honey butter, no scones, and the shrimp wasn't in a casserole but served in a pan and it was steamed with peppers. Everything was delicious and I think I had so many potstickers since they were just fantastic. They had amazing portions and the noodles lived up to the hype. My mom loved the wings, not overly battered, and amazing flavor. The teriyaki beef was also delicious. I did end up getting the Lapu Lapu, the rum cocktail served in a pineapple, and that was delicious. Of course, all of it could not compare to the star of the show: the pineapple bread pudding! We were so happy to enjoy all the great food at Ohana and it lived up to expectations. Will do it again.
Pros:
Portions Ukulele music Better for lunch to break up a day Wonderful cast members Gorgeous view of Magic Kingdom NOODS Pineapple bread puddingCons:

I didn't know noodles could taste this good!
This was a great place to eat. Wasn't too loud and the food was quality! the chicken wings, steak, chicken shrimp and noodles were all some of the best food overall I ate in Disney. There was nothing I could complain about. We loved it all!
Pros:
All the food!Cons:

10/10!! We love Ohana! I have a peanut allergy, and so was pretty nervous eating here, given that they used to serve peanut sauce with their meats previously. But, since the reopening, that is gone, and the food is absolutely delicious! I had let them know ahead of time about my allergy, and the CM was so amazing walking me through exactly how they prepare everything and reassuring me that she would triple check that nothing touched any peanuts. I don't normally like to make a big deal out of my allergy, but I was relieved and so happy that they take such care. The food was absolutely delicious! We loved everything we ate! We cannot wait to eat here again! Ohana noodles, pot stickers, shrimp, and bread pudding! Even the Salad was delicious!
Pros:
Delicious Food! Amazing atmosphere, and wonderful CMs! We loved riding the monorail here from MK!Cons:
It can be tough to get a reservation, but so worth it to wake up early at 60 days and make it!Reviewed by DisneyKacp29 Review Date: 08/15/2021

Had been to Ohana before, once for Breakfast and once for dinner,pre Covid. Was excited to get to try the new dining experience here. Family style worked out really great! Waiter was attentive and made sure to explain items as he served our table. Made sure we always had enough and asked if we needed more of the items we devoured! Everything tasted great and was really a big fan of the shrimp casserole!
Pros:

The best restaurant on property in my opinion.Has became a must do on our trips and is our kickoff meal of the trip. They start off by giving you their famous bread service and trust me on this. You and your party will eat the entire loaf it is so good. Everything is served family style so if your not a fan of this this isn't the restaurant for you...but it is so good.And keep in mind you can always ask for more! Pot stickers, wings, noodles,and salad will come out and then the main course! Chicken, steak, and peel and eat shrimp are walked around on huge skewers and you can ask for as much as you want! Make sure you keep room though for dessert.'Ohana Bread Pudding is served ala mode with a banana caramel sauce and it is seriously the best dessert of property. Entertainment made also be found during your meal such as a ukulele player. Do me a favor and dine here you won't regret it!
Pros:
Amazing food, Entertainment, ServiceCons:

My entire family loves Ohana! We have done the character breakfast and the dinner and love both. The breakfast is nice because it isn't a buffet so there Is no getting up and down with the kids and possibly missing characer, here the food is brought to you. It's family style and they will bring as much as your family will eat! Dinner is actually our favorite. The view is great- especially if you can time it with \"Happily Ever After\" and the food in the best on property! The bread is great, salad is yummy, the pot stickers, wings and noodles would be a wonderful meal on their own and then they bring out the best all you can eat meats ever! Then end it with killer bread pudding. Eat here- you won't be disappointed!
