Disney4me Posted 15 hours ago Report Share Posted 15 hours ago If you’re staying at a Disney World hotel, you’ll probably want to know where you can get quick food, and the good news is that every Disney World hotel has a quick service location where you can do just that. Riviera Resort If you happen to be staying at Disney’s Riviera Resort, that quick service location is Primo Piatto. We decided to stop by this dining spot to check out some eats for dinner to help you decide if it’s worth stopping by when you’re at the hotel and need a little pick-me-up or a meal. Atmosphere You’ll find Primo Piatto on the ground floor of the Riviera. The restaurant has two entrances: One on the first floor of the hotel and one by the pool. Primo Piatto There are two ways to order here: You can use Mobile Order or you can order at the cash registers. Counter If you use Mobile Order, you can pick up your order in the same spot you can grab napkins and utensils. Mobile Order pick-up Primo Piatto also has a grab-and-go section where you can…well…grab and go pre-packaged meals and snacks. Grab and Go A refrigerated section is stocked full of beverages and…GELATO (yep, you can get gelato here). Refrigerated beverages and snacks There’s also a beverages station with a Coca-Cola Freestyle Machine, as well as coffee and tea. If you purchase the Resort Refillable Mug, this is where you can fill it up. Fountain beverages, coffee, and tea There is also a lot of seating available with tables, banquettes, and booths. Seating But enough about this spot’s atmosphere — what’s on the menu here?! Menu Primo Piatto serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The lunch and dinner menu includes pizzas, several entrees, sandwiches, and salads, as well as desserts. Menu And now, onto the main event — the food! Eats First up, we grabbed the Bacon Cheddar Burger for $14.69. It’s made with Signature-blend Brisket and Chuck Burger, Bacon, Aged Cheddar, and Garlic Mayonnaise. Brisket and chuck? Oh, my! Well, let’s just say that sounds impressive, but this burger…well, it’s not. It actually was more like a standard Disney burger you could get at any quick service location. This was a real missed opportunity. Bacon Cheddar Burger The cheddar is nice and melted on the burger, and the patty is nice and thick, plus you get all the toppings. It’s not a BAD burger, but this is the Riviera. This is a deluxe hotel. This is a fancy place, but this burger…well, it ain’t fancy. Even the burger bun is just so NORMAL. Now, you can choose between regular fries or garlic parmesan fries as a side, so we obviously got the garlic parmesan, and the garlic and parmesan were basically just added to the fries as an afterthought. Really, Riviera? That’s the best you’ve got? And we know, we know, there are more exciting things on the menu. But it’s our job to try it all. So we had to see if this burger was serving…and it isn’t. Just a regular burger Okay, moving on… We also ordered the Croque Monsieur for $13.69, which is a Classic French Ham and Swiss Sandwich served with a choice of Side. Now, THIS, THIS is what we’d expect from the Riviera. It’s a classic Croque Monsieur with buttery bread that’s also got cheese melted on top of it with some scallions. Then you’ve got that creamy cheese on the inside with thinly sliced ham, and it’s creamy and a little salty and PERFECTION. Croque Monsieur It’s such a classic French sandwich, but it’s done beautifully here. We got regular fries as a side, but they’re Disney fries. We know what Disney fries taste like, right? Granted, we are fans of those fries. SO cheesy Okay, on to dessert. We stuck with the whole fries theme and got the Strawberry-Chocolate Fries, which are Cinnamon-Sugar French Fries topped with Chocolate Ganache, Strawberries, and Honey Cream Cheese for $6.99. Y’all…this was a great choice, and we might be slightly obsessing over this dessert. There are these juicy pieces of actual strawberries on them with some fun yellow sprinkles, cream cheese, and a chocolate syrup that tastes like Hershey’s, but it all works well because the fries themselves are like churros. Strawberry-Chocolate Fries That just makes this dessert SING. Even the sprinkles add a nice little crunch to each bite. Anyway, we wanted to inhale these, but we still have more food to try. So we’ll have to come back and order them again. SO good Finally, we grabbed the Riviera Cookie Box, which is…a box of cookies (yeah, big stretch there, right?) for $12.49. Riviera Cookie Box You get four cookies that are all a souped-up version of a chocolate chip cookie. So they’re a typical chocolate chip cookie, although we could also taste some kosher salt baked in, as well as walnuts, dried cherries, and pistachios. Yep, you could taste all the ingredients. Four cookies The pistachios and walnuts give the cookie a nice added crunch, but the cookie itself is very soft. We appreciated all the flavors, so well done, souped-up chocolate chip cookie. These cookies are EXTRA So…what do we think overall? Nosh or Not This Disney World restaurant is a must-visit if… You want a quick meal. This is a quick service restaurant, so if you want to grab a quick bite to eat, this is where you can do it. And Mobile Order makes that even easier. You want something a little fancier than standard quick service. Apart from the burger, the other offerings on the menu here are a little extra than what you might find at, say, an All-Star Resort food court. You’re on a budget. The prices here are reasonable (for Disney World) and won’t break your budget. You should skip this Disney World spot if… You want a special burger. Look, you can get a standard Disney burger just about anywhere, and the one here is basically that. If you want something MORE in a burger, skip this location and head to D-Luxe Burger in Disney Springs, pop by Steakhouse 71 at Disney’s Contemporary Resort, or any of the other dozens of locations that have truly great burgers. You’re not staying at the Riviera. You’re probably not going to want to travel all the way to the Riviera just to eat at its quick service location unless you’re already on the Skyliner and headed in that general direction. You want a table service meal. If you’re looking for a table service dining experience, skip Primo Piatto and make a reservation at Topolino’s Terrace instead. Full spread Overall Although the burger at Primo Piatto proved disappointing, we would come back for the dessert fries and the Croque Monsieur if we were in the Riviera area. This is a good spot to grab a quick bite to eat if you’re staying at the hotel or if you’re able to get there easily via the Skyliner.
