Planet Hollywood has played an integral part in the history of Disney Springs. Before Disney Springs was even called Disney Springs, this area of Walt Disney World was referred to as Pleasure Island. Planet Hollywood opened alongside Pleasure Island in 1997. After Walt Disney World rebranded this area of its shopping and dining district to Disney Springs the restaurant was refurbished and reopened as the Planet Hollywood Observatory in 2017.
Before this video, neither of us had been to a Planet Hollywood restaurant in over a decade. For those unfamiliar, this restaurant adorns its walls with memorabilia from iconic Hollywood films. The menu offers up the classic fare that can be found at most novelty restaurants but specializes in burgers and shakes. Guy Fieri even added some of his famous Flavortown flare to the menu.
While this restaurant is historic, its luster has worn off in recent years. Compared to many newer Disney Springs offerings, such as Boathouse or Wolfgang Puck, many consider this restaurant as one to skip on a Walt Disney World vacation.
We stopped by to see how Planet Hollywood compares to its competitors and to see whether public opinion has been too harsh on what was formerly a nostalgic fan favorite. After trying their signature eats and even a crazy shake we go over our thoughts on our experience and why Planet Hollywood actually surprised us.
