Guest Review: Ohana really does mean family

If you are a Disney Foodie fanatic then you must try Ohana (meaning Family) for Dinner-an all you can eat restaurant. Ohana is located on the 2nd floor of the Polynesian Resort at WDW. They open for dinner at 5pm and ADR are a must. We had reservations for 11 people at 5:05pm (which is a great time! No waiting) our server immediately brought coconut bread to our table and took our drink orders. Of course I had to try the drink that came in the pineapple (which I did not know the name at the time) it is called Lapu Lapu-a very strong drink but ohhh so good! Here is my brother trying it out.

Your start out your dinner with a mixed greens salad with honey-lime dressing. For appetizers you receive Pork Dumplings and chicken wings. Your side items for your meal are vegetables and noodles. Out comes the main course, meat, meat and more meat! Barbequed Pork Loin, Grilled Peel-n-Eat Shrimp, Sirloin Steak, and Grilled Turkey. Served with these meats are three dipping sauces, House-made Peanut, Chimichurri, and Pineapple Sweet-and-Sour. They are all served on skewers and put on your plate.

During dinner they have games and music for children. They have coconut races and music. They also call to the floor anyone celebrating birthdays, anniversaries and present them with leighs. This can be a bit loud but it really is a lot of fun.

For the finale, its dessert time. Your dessert is banana bread pudding and there is a lot of it. We had 4 children in our family and our server brought them ice cream with Mickey sprinkles.

Now my father is a diabetic and cannot have the banana bread pudding, we asked our server if there was another dessert that was sugar free. She smiled and said she would be right back. A few minutes later she came back with this.

All for one person! It was huge! My mother helped my father eat it and both said it was wonderful! The chef himself even came out and asked my parents if they enjoyed it. There was no extra charge for this either. Ohana and Disney could not have been more accommodating. I would have to say that Ohana is a must on your next Disney vacation! I know it is on ours. See you in July Ohana!
