Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista - Disney Springs™ Area in Orlando

I'm not sure if I picked the wrong night to come or what, but our cook was very slow. It didn't seem to be very crowded, considering that I arrived a little after 9pm. The cook took about an hour to come to our table. We didn't get to actually eat our food until 10:40pm, and it was cooked/served in portions, therefore food that had already been cooked was cold by the time my whole meal was prepared. The cook was nice but over talkative. The more he talked the slower the production became. The cook tricks were lackluster. I've been to much better Japanese steakhouse's. I don't have a Benihana in the area where I live, so I was very excited about trying this restaurant out. I left disappointed.

We are booked for seven thirty and we set our table at around eight pm. We loved the food and we enjoyed the performances of the chef incharged and the manager knew that we had two birthday celebrants all our besides tables had a birthday celebrants that they never missed to sing an English and Japanese birthday song and again we waited for our check out receipt again And not much guest in fact we are the left guests people in our area the we stayed waiting and waiting. Need to be observe with their commitments to the guests. Well also the front desk people had an attitude too never say sorry just saying you want to talk with the manager. Please learn how to handle guest.

Quite possibly the most mediocre and bland meals ever. Don't waste your time or money at this place. The servers were friendly. Perhaps they have to drink Kool-aid as part of their employment agreement.

We thought we had been incredibly lucky managing to reserve a table for 15 people at the last minute for dinner during the Christmas holidays. We were especially impressed that we were also able to push our table back by 30 minutes at even later notice.

We now understand that the truth is we were pretty much the only people insane enough to brave the culinary onslaught that is the Andiamo restaurant.

In an empty restaurant we valiantly waited 30 minutes for our drinks, 45 minutes for our starters and an hour and fifteen minutes for our main courses.

The chef appeared to be a highly skilled proponent of the "prison food" school of cooking. It felt as if all his years of experience running the kitchen at Guantanamo Bay came together to produce his finest two hours.

The Arugula salad was literally a plate of rocket leaves with some sundried tomatoes on the side. In fairness I do understand it is difficult to find asparagus in Cuba.

I then had sea bass with roasted red pepper sauce which was a very rare mix of the outright dreadful (the wet slimy sea bass) and the incredibly bland (the generic red sauce), and all for an exceedingly uncompetitive $32.

Pretty much all of our main courses arrived cold, impressive given we could only see one other table of inmates actually ordering and eating food.

In fairness I do think the waitress remained pretty friendly throughout although I'm nervous I may have been suffering from some form of Stockholm Syndrome by the end.

Even the 50% we received does not compensate for this absolute disaster of a meal. With so many top class restaurants inside and outside the park why would you chose somewhere which can only be described as positively inhumane? I now understand why so many at GB spend so much time on hunger strike.

P.S In case you are actually forced to eat at this restaurant (at gun point I assume) one guy did actually describe his grilled salmon as "warm and fine."
