Club 33's food is still great, it's that Bayou place that seems to be getting worse.

I've been once, and the food was good. I didn't go in expecting gourmet and I was not disappointed. We had a buffet and I heard the sit down menu is a lot better. If you go in expecting "standard Disneyland fare" you will be impressed by the quality

The food was great when I went.
I had the steak I think.
But I tasted the lamb too and it was good.
They have shrimp there too at the buffet.
Dessert was great.

Where'd you hear the food wasn't good? My two trips, once for brunch, once for dinner, were both wonderful. Dress up, expect fantastic food and service, take lots of pictures, and have a wonderful time!

(I had venison and baked Alaska!)

I'm going for lunch so I think it will likely be the buffett. My aunt and her girlfriend went for the buffett and while not bad, was just ok. I think people go in expecting Napa Rose and get Goofy's kitchen and are dissapointed. So I'm going in for the experience more than the food, that's all. I expect it will be good, just not Napa Rose (which was the best food I ever ate).

I should introduce you to my accountant...

And for all these years, I thought it was the Hoky Pokey.

I'm sure you will have a great time.

The food is fine, especially if you don't regularly eat at high end restaurants and so the level of food and service is a unique experience itself. However, the food is nowhere near as good as the price they're charging for the food. So, as long as you're fine with paying for the experience more than the food, it's great. Definitely worth going at least once to experience it.

I've been twice (dinner both) and was fine with the food. The service wasn't everything that it was hyped as. I certainly wouldn't turn down an invitation if it fell into my lap but I'm not going to go out of my way to get one at this point.

Congratulations on getting to go. Hope it is as great for you as you hope it will be. It is definitely a feather in the cap of the park fan.

The last time we went (I've been twice), we had an extra special experience because Susan's and then boyfriend (later, husband and soon to be ex-husband - sigh) were working there. He made extra special meals for us of surf and turf (not on the menu).

I know she still works there but he doesn't
