    New favorite spot ALERT…read more This is not a drill, I repeat, this is not a drill. Do not sleep on this little hidden gem on 5th! Before I say anything I have to say this was the best falafel I've had in my life!!!! And I'm so upset I took pictures of nothing because I was just blissfully stuffing my face the entire time. We had: sampler appetizer with 3 dips, pita, falafel and a rice salad. Tacos. Steak kabob gyro. And falafel platter with side chicken kabob. Chocolate pistachio cheesecake. Crème brûlée. The total was under $125 and that feels like a great deal for allll that food! Everyone brought home leftovers. Every single thing was delicious!!! It's also a byob spot which I love. So feel free to bring your own bottle of wine! The staff is wonderful! So sweet. The restaurant is also super cozy and intimate. Reservation recommended in case, but could easily get an outdoor spot or walk in and place a to go order! I cannot wait to try their brunch!!! I pinky promise I'll take pictures then.

    We were really excited to have dinner here tonight. The Lemon Chicken Tagine and Lamb Tagine were…read moreboth delicious and full of flavor. Unfortunately, the portion sizes were surprisingly small for the price, especially the chicken dish. We arrived at 5:45 p.m. for our 6:00 p.m. reservation and were seated promptly, which was appreciated. However, we waited about 45 minutes for our meals to arrive. While our waitress wasn't particularly attentive, she did apologize for the delay in getting our food. The restaurant itself is cute, specially outside seating. One suggestion is that the tables are larger for two people. The table next to us requested another table to be moved over to hold their food and drinks properly. The pita bread didn't arrive until later in the meal, and while it was a nice addition, it didn't make up for the small serving sizes and lack of anything to dip it into at that point. I truly wanted to love this restaurant and leave a glowing review because the food itself was very good. Sadly, between the long wait, service issues, and portion sizes that didn't match the prices, the overall experience fell short of our expectations.

    No regret! We chose the reservation for 9pm (we booked the night before). There was barely anyone…read morethere, so no lines at all. The food station was completely filled and the food was not cold. We both loved the oxtail soup (highly recommended by our waitress). The carving station was generous with the meat portion. The gumbo flavor was good. Disneys gumbo doesn't have rice, but that's fine because the other rice they have there was very flavorful too and I was able to mix it in myself. Dessert was great, I just wish I was able to eat more. While planning for the trip, we were mind set on not going to an all-you-can-eat. I mean, we had a looot of food planned, how are we gonna have the tummy space? Well, we went to animal kingdom, did not plan additional food after our reservation at Nomad (4pm), and my husband randomly decided that he might be hungry later at night. After comparing our options at AKL, we decided that Boma would be the best choice since we already had a reservation for Sanaa on a different day. This ended up being our favorite meal in terms of taste + value. The drinks are included in the price. For some reason, they did not give me ice in my juice. I don't usually like ice in water, so I guess it was nice they didn't give me ice? I didn't request no ice though, and it was too sweet so I did have to request ice in the end.

    Boma is a beautiful buffet restaurant, and has the kindest employees…read more However, considering the cost of the buffet per person, I'd expect more options, and to be wow-ed. The amount of money you spend here is equivalent to a really nice restaurant and the food just felt too meh for that. If the prices were lower I could get behind that. The lines can get quite long due to the small counters of options as well. They're very accommodating to guests etc. If I had known though I might not have considered!
