Yak & Yeti Local Foods Cafe (Lake Buena Vista, FL)

The worst Chinese food.
Don't eat here if you don't have to. We had the Beef Lo Mein, Egg Rolls and Fried Rice. The Lo Mein tasted like old noodle. No other noodles can beat this. Super BAD noodle. I'm very disappointed with the food in Disney in general. Except for the Turkey leg in Magic Kingdom, nothing else taste like what you can have outside of their parks.

Earl of Sandwich (Lake Buena Vista, FL)

Yummy sandwiches.
We got the Original, Hawaiian BBQ and Brownie bites. The Original sandwich and Brownie bites were great but the Hawaiian sandwich was just OK for me. Probably because I was not used to the new taste. The Brownie were like a mini cup cake size but taste like oatmeal raisin cookies. They were really good.

Ichiban Buffet (Kissimmee, FL)

This place is well below standard in term of food quality.
First of all, it should be known that it is a Chinese buffet with sushi and NOT a Japanese Buffet.

For the price, it was OK to fill up one's stomach after a long day of playing in Orlando but it would not be a place where I would go to if it was opened in where I live.

Try another place if you can.

Pho 88 (Orlando, FL)

This place is not bad at all.
In fact, it's probably better than lots of Pho shops out there. We tried this place a few years ago and wasn't impressed. But after reading all the recent reviews, we thought we would give it another try. We arrived to Orlando the other day around 6pm after driving 2 days from Texas to Orlando, and got stuck in traffic on 75. We thought about changing plan to eat American fast food and even Chinese food but we decided to still head down to Orlando to eat Pho. Nothing is better than a bowl of Pho after a long day of driving (wait make that 2).

We were not disappointed at all. The Pho was great. Far better than what I remember. We ordered 2 Dac Biet Xe Lua (Extra large) and we glad we did. Our kids were enjoying the food as well. The spring rolls were not bad though I wished they should have used the normal lettuce and mint but that was OK because the peanut sauce was so good.

We also ordered a Ca Phe Sua Da and Che Ba Mau but those were below average.

Their service was great. I wasn't expecting it from a one $ Vietnamese restaurant at all. They even refill water and ask us if everything was ok (twice).

One complaint though, we had to wait for a quite a while for the Pho to come out. I'm spoiled with Pho Bang in Dallas where Pho came out faster than fast food (most of the time).
