we did the character dinner at Artist point last night
It’s not a buffet. You share appetizers and dessert and each person orders an entree. The apps were good. And the entree was good. I had prime rib and it was perfectly done medium rare and had good flavor. The desserts were overly sweet and I didn’t care for them.
Snow White, grumpy and dopey come around to the tables for pictures. And the wicked witch poses for pictures at one spot.
So what’s not to like?
The price is $55 adult. And for that price point they don’t offer bread. I asked for it and was told, well you get appetizers. Do I need bread? Of course not. But for that price they should be able to provide a few pennies worth of rolls. Seems very cheap.
The ambiance. For those like us who always loved artist point for that magnificent room, it’s gone. The murals and high ceilings are covered by cheap fake trees and leaves. Very disappointing. My husbands first words were, well they hAve really junked it up! Very true.
Tables In wonderland. Artist point always accepted TIW and all the other character meals do as well as most signature restaurants in the resorts, the parks and at Disney Springs. But the new artist point no longer does. Yes they accept DVC card but again it’s just disappointing that Disney can charge 55 a person plus a minimum of $45 for s bottle of wine and not be willing to accept TIW. I’m not sure their rationale other than saving a few dollars.
I have two disabled adult daughters who loved it. So it’s good we went. But unlike Ohana or park fare which we love and go to at least once a trip we will never return. And we will always miss the traditional and beautiful Artist Point.
