Rate the following (1-5, five being the best!)
Food: 4 - food is good but a pain to eat out of the Chinese takeout boxes
Service: 3 - Not overly friendly - was rushed to take my order even though no one was around.
Atmosphere: 5 - Tons of things to look at.
Okay for Children: Yes - Typical kids meals available. No covers available for soft drinks. Could created a problem with younger children.
Okay for Couples: Yes - Take your meal and eat in an area by the water.
Be Sure to Try: Honey Chicken - Good size pieces of all white meat chicken with white rice and broccoli. Rice is on bottom followed by brocoli and then chicken. Could use a little more sauce if you want to taste it on the rice.
General tips: Limited seating around the actual resturant. Look for tables down the road towards Africa. Plenty of seats hidden by trees along the water.
TheMouseForLess tips: Reminder - Animal kingdom does not use covers for their drinks. Be carefull walking with your tray as the paths are not always even. Be prepared to either drink it all or throw it away or risk spilling it on you or someone else.
Extra Comments: Not a lot of cover for tables in case of rain. Be prepared.

and Sour Chicken, cream cheese wonton dessert

Rate the following (1-5, five being the best!) 4.0
Food: 4.75
Service: 4.5. WOuld have been a five but I had to wait for a while
for drink refills. He knew the menu quite well and made
recommendations.
Atmosphere: 4.5. Great theming, comfortable chairs.
Okay for Children: YES. Busy, busy place. May find kids menu restrictive and not a lot of
choices.
Okay for Couples: YES. But its not quiet.
Be Sure to Try: I really enjoyed everything we had, although I was
prepared to hate it due to my general dislike of the RFC.
General tips: They seem to have a bit of a problem with crowd control
for check in. Lobby is way too small for the numbers of guests that
come through. Its raining today at Disney and there were way too
many people pushing and shoving to get out of the rain. I was 10
minutes late for my ADR (finishing the Nemo Musical) and I had to
wait 15 minutes for a table.
TheMouseForLess tips: Portions are good if you are hungry. I had soup
and salad and picked off the kids' plates for the stuff they did not
finish. They ate a whole lot though and I had only a bite of chicken
and a little bit of rice. Adults with normal or hearty appetites
would not be able to share their entree.
Extra Comments: Make an ADR. This place takes a lot of walk ups. I
was prepared to hate YnY as I really dislike the Rainforest. YnY is
more of an "upscale" chinese restaurant. Tables are well spaced,
service was very good. I wasn't thrilled with my table assignment as
we were not taken past the first room (which made observing the lobby
quite easy.)
They accept the DDP (one TS credit) but NO DDE card. I used my AP
for a 10% discount.
I'll go back. It was really good.
