Looking to check out some resorts on our upcoming trip and figured we’d work in a meal…
Any thoughts on best Quick service meal at resort?
The ones that are standout to me are The Mara (AKL) and Captain Cook’s (Poly)
Roaring Fork @ WL.
Pizza window at Boardwalk is great.
Seconding The Mara at AKL! We have only done that for resort quick services, so I can’t compare to others, but it has been wonderful. Their chicken bowl is so good. Plus you can get zebra domes!
Primo Piatto!
Oh yes! How could I have forgotten!
Geyser Point at WL - the walkup/takeout window. Not the hostess seat you in the covered bar/lounge area, which is TS.
Definitely Primo Piatto.
My big girls and I liked it so much in August that I took DH and younger girls in October. Very good options and like Panera in that it’s semi-counter service. You stand to order, but they bring you the food.
I will third The Mara. It’s the only quick service meal that I have had that really stands out.
Yes!!
Captain Cooks at Poly is my favorite… great breakfast, great noodles, small seating area but I’ve always been able to find a table. Added plus is that if someone really wants macadamia nut pineapple pancakes from Kona, you can mobile order, get some fancy Hawaii coffee at the kiosk, and then go to Captain Cooks for everything else.
I also do like the Mara at AKL, but it’s kind of out of the way.
The worst, since you didn’t ask, is Goods to Go at OKW. It’s a walk-up window with only poolside seating and very limited menu. Wait, that’s a lie… the worst is at Kidani, because it doesn’t exist. If you want anything other than the full Sanaa experience then you’re stuck with gift shop groceries or a trip over to AKL.
