I live in Spain, it's cultural, they bring the dishes out as they are ready from the kitchen. You don't want them like that, you tell the server, and they'll bring them as you want them.
Hi Kristen, excellent detailed review. Regarding the table for two number of portions, that is exactly something I would have noticed too as I like a good deal and I don’t want to ever feel ripped off. You’re not shy…maybe next time at the end of the service, you could ask the server how the portions are determined, table for 2-3 gets x # servings, tables for 4-5 get x # servings for example. What we don’t know about the table of two is whether they had someone in their party that cancelled at the last moment with a non-refundable prepayment. Now I’m curious too.
They were seated at a 2 top so I would assume it was a party of 2 from the jump. I am curious what would have happened if we were a party of 4. I genuinely think you all get the same portion no matter what. So I recommend going as a party of 2 😊
Restaurant server, here. I think that they brought the food quickly to make sure that you have time to eat and enjoy the food so you aren’t distracted by the food so you can enjoy the show.
Oh I understand that! But I feel like the pacing should be a bit better. Maybe only do one dinner seating and have everyone come in at the same time for the dining package. Just a thought that I think would have improved my experience.
Looks great. Getting my psyched for my upcoming trip to Costa Del Sol Spain. We plan to do a tapas tour of Old Town Marbella. I do wonder if they are careful serving you all family style that you are getting a good amount.
Expect heavy crowds at Disney Springs for most evenings this summer. I expected the crowds to die down a bit since the show has been around for a week now, but they definitely have not. You can totally still enjoy your time, but just be prepared for it to be a bit busier than usual.
I wish I was there during the show, my family trip won’t be till Thanksgiving :(. I agree with you on the serving. I wonder if you would ask more they would allow it? Like the dessert. Love ur reviews!
As I watched longer you answered my question. Coming with 2 or 3 people total you are getting the same amount. When you said you had to share the final olive or whatever I thought something was fishy.
I agree Kristen, the apps should have been spaced out. Especially so the hot ones didn’t get cold. I really hate it when food comes out too fast. The paella didn’t look appetizing. I am holding a reservation at Summer House in a few weeks and hoping to watch the show from there. Do you think the view will be as good?
Yes, you should pretty much have the same view since Summer House is right next door to Jaleo! I am not sure if you can specifically reserve a table on the back patio though, so maybe try to get there a little early to request an outdoor table.
I drove all the way out to DS from Tampa last night.. was all set up with my view from House of Blues.. then Mother Nature had other plans. First.. it was too windy. Then they said they were good to go.. we started seeing some lights from he far left.. then the whole system crashed! They tried to restart and it crashed again. Then they cancelled the show "Due to unforeseen circumstances". I was so bummed and didn't wait for the late show because the forecast still showed windy conditions. So.. I would be afraid after spending $79.. that the show would be cancelled. I'll try again in before the show leaves.
Great video, that was A LOT of food. Question is it $79 per person or per group? I have to agree with everything you said the paella didn’t look that awesome. Keep up the great work - Randy 😊
Correct. But for the 10:45 show I noticed they didn’t sell the tables for the drone show so they let people not doing the package sit at the tables out there.
Hi great video again we are coming over from Scotland 🏴 next May for 4 week and staying at the caribe royale hotel can you do a video on it please 🙏
Hello! Enjoy your trip! I probably won't get around to making a RUclips video there, but I did enjoy a great meal at the Venetian Chop House when I stayed there last summer.
Thanks for the heads up. Giving 3 people the same amount of food as two people who all pay $79 each means, to me, that the servers are either dishonest or stupid. I would never knowingly eat at such a place. So it's a big hell no from me.
I understand what you're saying about the portion sizes, but at the end of the day, that's what tapas are and they're expensive. Plus, it's really important that restaurants are consistent with their portion sizes to ensure everyone is paying the same amount for the same thing listed on the menu. It just wouldn't be fair for one table to pay the same money for something but receive a larger portion, regardless of party size. Because tapas are small and supposed to be shared, large groups have to accept that they may have to order more than one of each dish. 🤷♀ Great video though. Always enjoy your content!
Strongly disagree. This meal package is priced per person, not per dish or per table. The portions should be sized for the number of people since each person pays the same (regardless of whether it is a table or 2, 3 pr whatever).
If you’re the only one who paid 79.00 at ur table, then that’s what you get… Dud Maria or Chris pay 79.00 as well? If so, then there should be more food… If not, why should the restaurant give more food ?
I did not like this restaurant when I ate there. The food was ok, not anything fantastic. Some things were good, other things were bland and just meh. The seats were uncomfortable, there was no place to put your purse or bags except for the floor, which was not great. It was not crowded (we ate there at lunch), but it was strangely loud with the music and all the hard surfaces bouncing sound around. The waiter stood and stared at us from the bar as we ate. The table and chairs were really cheap, it was like being in a fast food place, but acting like high class. Anyway, there are so many much better places to eat there, so it was a one and done for us.
Which is cool so I can check it out without wasting my money. It’s not just her opinion on the food but more about seeing what the food looks like that helps me make my decisions for upcoming Disney trips.
This probably isn’t her only job. And if it is- kudos to her for putting in the work to build up her channel to make that possible. 🎉 Great video as always, Kristen 👍💫
I live in Spain, it's cultural, they bring the dishes out as they are ready from the kitchen. You don't want them like that, you tell the server, and they'll bring them as you want them.
Your channel is fire 🔥 trust me, you’ll be at 100k in no time
Thank you Paul!
After your video from opening night I booked this for my wife's birthday in July. Can't wait.
This is such a great idea! Thank you for sharing, I really want to do this now.
So much fun with you and let’s go find more food with shows lol❤
Dinner & a show! My fave
Wonderful video, thanks Kristen!
For 79 a person I definitely agree with you. You should get a portion for each person.
Excellent dining review as always 👌🏻
We agree 💯 with you on the paella 🥘
All the other dishes are absolutely delicious 😋
Thank you!!
That endive and goat cheese with almonds looks so good
A prefect bite!

Great! Coming next week, will definitely see this show
It is a great show, you're going to love it!
I agree about the portions. As i watched it didn't seem like enough for 3 people, especially if you are each paying. Thanks for the honest review!
Great review. Love Jaleo! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you!

@@wrightdownmainstreet totally understand but I’m glad that you had a great time and didn’t have to deal with any mayo. 😂😍
I thought the same thing.
@@wrightdownmainstreet 😂
I just added Jaleo to my list of must do’s! You should be getting commission on your honest and good reviews! Thanks Kristen!
I wish! Enjoy Jaleo
Looks great. Getting my psyched for my upcoming trip to Costa Del Sol Spain.
We plan to do a tapas tour of Old Town Marbella.
I do wonder if they are careful serving you all family style that you are getting a good amount.
Excellent food review with bonus drone show Thank you
Thank you!!
Played a drinking game where every time Kristin complained about getting all the food at once, you take a shot. I made it 13 minutes and passed out
Hey, these restaurants should do better 🤷🏻♀️
@@wrightdownmainstreet valid point, Disney restaurants should do better. Did you anything about paying an extra $80 for the same portion as a 2 top?
How about we play a game where you watch another channel
Or a game where you mind your own business
Sounds like a restauranteur sour grapes, LOL.
We’re going to Disney in end of the June. Im hoping the crowds aren’t too bad in the evening day when we go.
Expect heavy crowds at Disney Springs for most evenings this summer. I expected the crowds to die down a bit since the show has been around for a week now, but they definitely have not. You can totally still enjoy your time, but just be prepared for it to be a bit busier than usual.

I asked for outdoor patio but you’re right, it’s not guaranteed.
Have family coming to Disney with me that week.
This looks like such a fun night out! Can’t beat dinner and a show 😃 “Suck the head of the shrimp” 🤣🤣
It's the best!! Love a good dining experience
tol-EE-do is in ohio, tol-AY-do is the restaurant… 12:19
They're spelled the same way 🤷🏻♀️
I drove all the way out to DS from Tampa last night.. was all set up with my view from House of Blues.. then Mother Nature had other plans. First.. it was too windy.

great advice
Jaleo also has a "Lakeside View" when making a reservation. Does anyone know if this would include a view of the drone show?
What is the seating area called that you chose!?
It is on Open Table. You can book the Disney Dreams that Soar dining package
Naomi from Houston sending hellos!
Hello Naomi!
Great video, that was A LOT of food. Question is it $79 per person or per group? I have to agree with everything you said the paella didn’t look that awesome. Keep up the great work - Randy 😊
Per person!
I wish it was $79/ group, but it was $79 per person. Thanks Randy!
So the only way to get those tables for the drone show is to get that package ( I.e. not the regular menu?).
Correct. But for the 10:45 show I noticed they didn’t sell the tables for the drone show so they let people not doing the package sit at the tables out there.
Love tinned smoked mussels😊
Have you had them from Trader Joes? That is where I see everyone get them!
Was it 79 per person?
Yes! $79 per person
@@wrightdownmainstreet So each person got a 13 portion meal ? Then you're right why were there only 2 deserts ....
Can you eat at Pepe and see the show? I got a Quick service credit burning a hole in my pocket 😂
You should have eaten the warm fried items first?
Hi great video again we are coming over from Scotland 🏴 next May for 4 week and staying at the caribe royale hotel can you do a video on it please 🙏
Hello! Enjoy your trip! I probably won't get around to making a RUclips video there, but I did enjoy a great meal at the Venetian Chop House when I stayed there last summer.
Does Maria go to Bibbidi Bobbidi Botique every day? She always looks 100% on point! Love your videos btw.
Hahaaa aw this is so sweet!
Thanks for the heads up. Giving 3 people the same amount of food as two people who all pay $79 each means, to me, that the servers are either dishonest or stupid. I would never knowingly eat at such a place. So it's a big hell no from me.
Can we request just certain item? I don’t want to waste food but I know the olives and some others would go untouched.
I am not sure if they are able to replace certain items. The service was great so maybe they’re able to work with you!

I’ve never had a really good lunch/dinner at Jaleo. Tried two lunches and two dinners then gave up.
Sad to hear! I've always had a great experience
When my wife and I ate there, everything was lukewarm, and only the pulled pork was decent. Everything else blew.
I would have been upset
Where is Sean. You make a great duo
He almost came with that night but isn't that adventurous of an eater! He's a busy guy, but we make videos together as often as possible!
I don't get why they don't serve each diner their own dessert. Maybe a half portion each or something. Or a couple of tiny desserts per person. 🤷
A smaller portion of each would be perfect. They need to arrange the servings of this meal better.
If you’re the only one who paid 79.00 at ur table, then that’s what you get… Dud Maria or Chris pay 79.00 as well? If so, then there should be more food… If not, why should the restaurant give more food ?
It’s $79 per person
each person pays $79
All 3 of us paid $79 😂
What if they had brought out Kong Dongs ?? lol
Just think Kristen, had you gone by yourself, you would have a better amount of food than the party of two.
I think I read after I filmed the video that you can only do the tasting menu for 2+ people. Otherwise yes! 😂

good to know!
I liked it at 2x speed like you showed in your voiceover. Otherwise, meh, and I really don't need to hear that song ever again.
I think you have to see it in person to get the full affect. I love the show!
@hyperorbit I was so fascinated by the food I really didn’t hear the song. What about it didn’t you like?
My daughter and I would not like the food at this restaurant. Just way too fancy for us. 😊
Agree...
You must do very well financially as a RUclipsr to afford all of this.
That's my thought as well SharonMorgan
She might do very well, but more likely she has another career. Great video Kristen thank you.💕🌈
Which is cool so I can check it out without wasting my money. It’s not just her opinion on the food but more about seeing what the food looks like that helps me make my decisions for upcoming Disney trips.
She seems to have alot of Patreon members....maybe that's it
This probably isn’t her only job. And if it is- kudos to her for putting in the work to build up her channel to make that possible. 🎉 Great video as always, Kristen 👍💫
You actually get many of those tapas free with your 2 euro drink in the Jaén and Granada regions. I love the jamón!
No it is not worth it
Rip off. I hope you complained.
No need to complain, I still enjoyed my meal 😊
