    Wow, I don't know what happened to Summerhouse but both food and service were poor this time (it was probably our 5th time dining there). I always go for the chicken paillard but it has been getting progressively worse. I have had lemon wedges included and not included, arugula dressed and undressed but this time takes the cake. My arugula "salad" arrived covered heavily in chili oil, and wilted and turned dark green! It could be that the entire dish was placed under a heat lamp, resulting in a cooked salad. No sign of any fresh lemon, either on the side or on the salad. Then, our waiter was nowhere to be found, even after I stopped a staff member and asked him to come over. Took a good 5-6 minutes, he offered to replace the salad and get lemon. Got a small bowl of salad, again starting to wilt from a heavy dose of chili oil (maybe it is kept hot?) and one very small wedge of lemon, not enough for either a salad or to use on the chicken. No acid, just oil dressed on the arugula. I gave up at that point because the waiter again disappeared and didn't check until clearing plates to find out if I was satisfied. My husband also said his fish tacos were very light on any fish and he has ordered before and liked it. Last little thing, but at this time super annoying issue, no salt in the shaker. Not sure I will try again. SOL used to be my go to for guests in town because of the food but it has lost its luster.

    Added salt on top of everything, which is not necessary here in Disney world.... Not enjoyable, chef needs to stop with the extra salt.

    Our new favorite restaurant at Disney Springs! Great ambiance and service. We came for drinks and appetizers, and it did not disappoint. We loved our espresso martinis. The deviled eggs and truffle fries were so good. Highly recommend!

    The host outside supposedly checked us in and told us to go inside and wait, she wasn’t very friendly, after waiting a little bit and seeing other people come in and line up for the inside host I asked if I had to check in again.? I was told yes, but the first person never told us, also our server was nice but she took forever to come back to our table every time. One of the cookies was charged more than the menu price and she just said the menu price was wrong, but I said the menu price should be the price and she hat to go talk to a manager. It’s not the amount, it’s what’s correct. The food was good as always

    This was our first time eating at Summer House and it did not disappoint. The food was excellent and the atmosphere was great. We definitely will plan on stopping by the next time we’re at Disney Springs.
