Whispering Canyon Cafe - thoughts??

We've been 2 or 3 times with the kids when they were younger...it was really fun...might lose some of that if its just the 2 of you...but that depends on you...we enjoyed it. The food was really good when we were there except for the last time...for me any way...my rib eye was tough and over cooked and the girl that served us was no fun at all...but that was our only "bad" time there. I think its worth a try...but if you don't like a little noise and carrying on you may want to pass!

We've been several times, and really enjoyed it. The food was very good and I didn't think the antics were over the top at all.

This is one of our favorites places to go. It is tradition for our family to eat our first meal each trip the night we get to Disney here. Our daughters love it. Even though they are now adults they still love all the fun. Enjoy!

Thanks for this question... My daughter and I were thinking about eating there our first night. Plans to check in make our way over th MK and take the monorail around to see Christmas decorations (going 15 -21 Dec) at the deluxe Hotels and ending our tour at Wilderness Lodge (my favorite). The menu looks yummy... didn't know about the antics... what does this involve?

this has become one my family's favorite places. We all really like the food and tend to way over eat. The servers get a feel for you pretty quick if you want to joke around or not but we always eat here with 10+ people so it ends up being a really fun experience for the people we bring that have never been....especially for the ketchup users.

This is one of our 'must dine' locations each trip. I know what you mean about over-eating here, 1goofyfamily!

It is my family's opinion that over the years they have really toned down the antics - but it is still a happy, lively, yummy place, regardless!:thumbsup: We've always gotten the skillets - it's a good value. Their milkshakes are wonderful, too!!!

Done it with a big group(12 people) and done it with 2 people. Loved it both times. Like others, we tend to overeat there, but it's enjoyable. There were more shenanigans with the big group, but it was still fun with 2 of us. I have ADRs for 6 of us for our next trip. Can't wait!

We love it there, but it is very loud and high energy. Our meals and service have always been good.

Never been there but planning on our next trip.

We have eaten here and really enjoyed the experience. The last time it was just myself and my husband and we had a great time. We like watching the expressions on people who have never been before. It's like a dinner show in itself:cloud9:

food was great. We ordered the skillet....lots of meat. Desserts were DELICIOUS!!!

As for the antics, you don't have to participate if you do not want to. They give you a card to leave on your table indicating your preference: to participate or just watch the action.

PS: if you are on the dining plan your beverage options include BOTTOMLESS milkshakes!!!!!!!

Bottomless shakes are totally awesome and delicious. !!! Love WCC.

We've dined here many times. I have to say, that we found the food to decline in quality (simply compared to our previous visits). That said, it's a great place if you love all-you-can-eat.

I have been here several times as just adults and also as an adult couple and have eaten in the main dining room and elsewhere in the restaurant.

I find that if you are only 2 adults, they tend to seat you in one of the back rooms. Here, there is still great themeing and silliness (for example, they brought "jail" to the table of a little girl who wouldn't eat her vegetables), but it is much quieter and less foot trafficked than the main dining room. As a party of 2 adults, we have also been seated on the "porch" area that overlooks part of the lobby/hotel. It is very quiet in this location and you don't see very much by way of the server/child antics (except that one time where we saw the other all-adult table skip out on paying their check - a totally different type of show!).

So, based on my experience, you could quite possibly be seated in a more quiet area of the restaurant when they see that you are two adults (especially since most of the seating in the main dining room is for larger parties). That said, if you have your heart set on a more boisterous experience with a lot of children literally running around (there is a very comical "pony race"), I'm sure you could request a seat in the main dining room.

P.S. Do not ask for ketchup unless you are interested in having every child present bring you a bottle from their table.

P.S.S. If you you've had a loooooong day in the parks and are looking for a relaxing atmosphere and a lot of personal space, this may not be the restaurant for you!

One great thing about eating there is that now you can choose to be part of the antics or just enjoy a great meal, watch the antics and be left alone. That's decided by a round chip on your table indicating your choice. Food is great.:thumbsup:
