Chef Art Smith's Homecomin' Restaurant Review | Disney Dining Show 

Awww Ryno! Its fine that you are giving your honest opinion. I would venture to say a vast majority of your audience also thinks that what you share is important and gives us clarification when deciding where to spend money on Disney property. Love this vlogging trio and keep up the candid reviews!

Ryno, don’t ever feel guilty or bad about voicing YOUR opinion. We all have them and they should all be heard. I’ve been to homecomin’ once and I enjoyed it.. but I also got the Mac and cheese and fried chicken! But it’s a breath of fresh air to see a review of totally different items that we don’t ever see on review channels!

The three of you are my favorite reviewers. You always tell it like it is without being pretentious. I really enjoy hearing your opinions.

Ryno, this is your best review ever. Flip the sandwich over so it doesn’t get soggy? Brilliant! The place to go for apps & drinks? Spot on. For me living in the south I get fried chicken, biscuits & fried green tomatoes better here for 1\3 the price. Great review.

Homecomin' is a must do for me. Thigh-high chicken biscuits, fried chicken sandwich, chopped pork barbecue, adult sippy cups, hush puppy benedict, and hummingbird cake are my favorites. I made a hummingbird cake (thanks Deni!) for a work function once, and now everyone asks when I'm making another.

Homecomin' is probably the one restaurant at Disney springs that I would go out of my way to visit. The fried chicken is fantastic.

The food choices that the team chose today were lackluster. There are so much more incredible dishes at Homecomin’. These choices don’t highlight their awesomeness.

Who doesn’t order the thigh high chicken biscuits? This is my favorite Disney springs restaurant

Love you and your reviews! Ryno, we tend to enjoy the same things so I appreciate the honesty! Made me change a reservation I was on the fence on for an upcoming trip.

Totally agree Ryno. Compared to some of the other options in Disney Springs, this is southern slop.

I agree with Ryno 100%. 😊

Favorite brunch spot, sneak in early when it first opens at the bar. Bartenders are pesonable, and the brunch items are beyond fantastic. Did I say the brunch menu is 🔥 .

I love that guy who says Homecoming wasn't for him! 😂

I agree with Ryno. The food is way too heavy for the Florida heat and nothing wows!

Tawanda! I always have to order the fried green tomatoes, too! Great review! I'm always curious about this restaurant. I've really been enjoying the recent series you three have been doing. We have food allergies in our family, so I like seeing what options places have for people with food restrictions.

Somehow you managed to order nothing I would ever eat, minus the carrot cake.

Ryno your the best speak your mind !

Rhino, love your videos. I am 76 years fun, and my goddaughrer drank too much shine and fell onto the lagoon in 2021

This is one of my favorites whenever we go to Disney springs. We are eating here again on our November trip.

I’ve eaten here three times. First two experiences were great. The last one, left both myself and mother feeling sick and heavy, and we didn’t even make to dessert. I feel like this is an appetizer and drinks place and move on. Thank you for the great review!

I appreciate all honest reviews. I was on the fence about trying this place, and I’m really glad I did. Our little family, really enjoyed our evening there. My husband has lactose issue, and they were very accommodating, chef came to the table, made adjustments on things, my husband loved his meal. And I think to have a nice sit down meal in Disney springs for under $50 a person, was a big win. And we would have been under that but we got two of those squeezebottle drinks, and they may be clouding my judgment, but they were so good.

We love homecomin. Their deviled eggs are amazing.

Thanks for trying some more unique menu items here! Ryno, I’m with you-this place did not amaze me when we visited, I know people love it, but I was not wowed.

Got to say I completely agree with Ryno. First time we went I loved it. Second time not so fussed. I think it’s over hyped.

Fun fact my best friend Jessica is a server at Homecomin and her family farm provides the grits for the restaurant! Bradley Country Store in Tallahassee.

Homecomin is low Key amazing. The meaning behind it is so wholesome. Great review!

I really like the honesty. Thanks!

Agree Craig ,Deviled eggs Fried Chicken and Humming bird cake. Only negative $$$$$

We’ve eaten at Homecomin’ 4 and have enjoyed each visit. Is it the best Southern food I’ve ever had? No. But we think it’s very, very good. The servers are absolutely wonderful!

We had the best brunch here on our last trip! This is one of our favorites. A must do every trip!

I'm thinking it's a culinary crime to go to Homecomin' and order a *chicken salad sandwich*. This ain't Panera! Cringe.

Ryno made me laugh with his comment “kind of a soggy bottom” 😂

Yay! It’s Ryno, Craig, and Erica! 🎉🥳 Thank you for an updated restaurant review of Art Smith’s Homecomin’. I have eaten there years ago and I agree with Ryno, the food is about a 7 out of 10 or a “medium”!😜 However, we met the Head Chef/Manager, and he was awesome, thus giving the overall experience a “10 out of 10!” 🥰

Best restaurant on Disney property along with boathouse. That Mac and cheese and thigh high chicken biscuits!❤

Ate there in Fall 2018 and early 2020. Loved it both time. can't wait to get back( didn't make it there when we went down in 2022)

My daughter and I love Chef Art Smiths Homecoming! That being said still love you too Ryno! Everyone’s entitled to their own opinion.

Crazy expensive! 😮 But great vlog as always! Really enjoying this team! ❤

I went here once on my first night at Disney a couple years ago and got the thigh high chicken biscuits as an entree and loved them. My experience was so good that i went back two days later for brunch. Great food and drinks at the bar.

Love it here. The fried green tomatoes are sooo good! We always get the deviled eggs also.

My (21 year-old) girls and I LOVE Homecomin'! The fried chicken (even though I only eat the breast & wing) and the Strawberry Lemonade Moon shine are awesome!

This is my favorite restaurant on all Disneyworld properties 👍

@ryanclavin I would love you to share the 3 restaurants that you WOULD take your mom to if she was coming to town. 😊 Maybe one at a resort hotel, one at a theme park and one at Disney Springs? Could be a show idea

Great review as always guys! We’re in the minority with you Ryno! We’ve tried dinner and brunch and were not impressed with either. But I know most people love it. Just not for us 😊.

Given that it’s Florida in the summer, thank you for doing some lighter fare options. Having fried chicken or mashed potatoes and then walking out into the Florida humidity isn’t my idea of fun. Appreciate hearing recommendations for other non staple items and the honesty. It’s not always rainbows and roses and we appreciate your real thoughts.

Hey guys. I agree with Rhino. We dined at Homecoming in April on our last trip. It's not good or bad. I actually had the chicken salad sandwich with the house chips. It was just okay. My daughter had their fried chicken with mac and cheese and it was just so buttery and cheesy and fattening. I don't hate this restaurant but I don't love it. And a scale of 1 to 5 I give it a two-and-a-half, right in the middle.

Ryno, I love the movie Fried Green Tomatoes too, remember the secrets in the sauce!

ABSOLUTELY A MUST-DO. I have not had anything that I didn't like.

❤your reviews are terrific ❤

Great new video! ❤❤❤

We love brunch at homecomin and the moonshine!

I’m with Ryno, it doesn’t look that exciting to me and it’s a lot of money per item.

Thank you so much for having Erica on these dining reviews! My 3 year old has a dairy allergy (not lactose) and it’s still hard to find things she’ll be able to eat when we eat out. I would love to hear some kid-friendly options for kids with food allergies!!

My favorite restaurant an DS. The peach sangria is amazing. Shrimp and grits my favorite meal on property. No bacon though.

“apps and zerts!”

Thanks for always giving us your honest opinion on all the dining reviews! Can you please go back to Art Smith's Homecomin' and do a review of their brunch? Thanks!!! 😃

Ryno, maybe next time Craig and Erica can just drop you off you off at Wine Bar George. 😜

Ryno, it’s not my favorite either, but wouldn’t say no to going😊 It’s my husband’s favorite ❤️ I am a Boathouse gal myself 🎉

$19 for a chicken salad sandwich.... servers must love this place getting 18% tip off super inflated high prices

If I want home cooking, I'll eat at home.

Hey Ryno. Don't feel bad about feeling how you feel. I have been to Homecomin 3 times, and the first 2 times I loved it. The last time was very much mehhh and even leaning toward I don't really have to come back for a while. And I even had the chicken and the mac n cheese, which is the go-to. It was just okay that last time, which was 2 years ago. So it's not just you.

$14 for a piece of carrot cake. Ridiculous

I’ve never been to Homecoming. I love the reviews that you have been Doing. I live in the south. Fried Chicken is not what I order. Keep being honest with your reviews Ryno!!

Best restaurant ever!!!

I’m with you Ryno. It’s meh. Not a must do but I don’t hate it.

I don’t think these comments are saying you shouldn’t order other stuff on the menu. Of course you should. But the main gist of it is, why not order one thing that they’re known for and mix in a couple of new bits? There’s probably a reason these things aren’t ordered much. Because they’re not good? Perhaps going there when there’s lots you can eat and drink would be better. Homecoming for me is all about the apps and drinks rather than the mains.

Love Homecoming, we go out of our way to dine there as much as we can each visit!! Love hearing these reviews Ryno you are 100% entitled to your oppinion. However I would say.. I stick to appetisers (or brunch) there not mains. Its all about the aps and dessert for us. And the cocktails 😂🎉

⭐️ Be aware that they will add an 18% tip to your check even for a party of one or two guests and may not even mention it when they come and grab your credit card to scan it at the table. Not all of the servers are up front about that practice so ask to see the check before you pay and add another 20% on top since it seems to depend on the server and their honesty.

Great review! Yummy yummy!

Three things are certain in life: Death, taxes, and Craig/Ryno wearing insanely busy button-up tops.

You should do a bit on "Orlando Magical Dining" They haven't released the restraint list yet, but the special menu supports Children's Causes.

Ryno what place do like to eat?

Homecomin is a must do for us, of course we never stray from the fried chicken and I agree with Craig that the perfect meal there is the deviled eggs and fried chicken. I never have room for dessert.

Loved seeing the different options this restaurant offers - the less popular options. Gives a good overview of a variety of options :) I do find it strange that none of you ordered the fried chicken! Considering this restaurant is literally known for its fried chicken, it would've been nice to see the fried chicken, at least as a starter if not the main course!

I like the song from Atlantic Rhythm Section 😂

Another commenter here, agreeing 💯% with Ryno. Homecoming is awful. I don’t get the hype at all. I couldn’t even eat it… and yes, I ordered the fried chicken and macaroni and cheese. Never again.

I'm with you Ryno. As someone who lives in the South, I wasn't impressed either. It's an expensive, commercialized take on southern food that doesn't compare to my local diner. If you're from somewhere where you can't get fried, southern food-I could see the appeal. However, you're missing out on the real thing and paying way too much.

This video needs some Pete.

I actually agree with Ryno😅 I can't have dairy and all so that place is a miss for me but I wouldn't mind trying it again. 🤷🏻😅

I agree with your assessment particularly as it relates to Erica and allergy options. Disney or Disney associated restaurants should be doing more and better allergy options. On that note, would you guys consider mentioning gluten free options at restaurants as a part of your review? In either case, thank you all as always! 👍🏼💜

I personally thought this review was great! I enjoy when they venture away from the normal things they would order, or from the most popular items on the menu. Also, this was one of our favorite places, but back in April we were so disappointed!! The food actually tasted stale and dry…both the biscuits and chicken, and our daughter who is Mac enthusiast, said it was separated and cold😭 (Yes, we did talk to our server who was awesome)

Ryno hard to please. Chef Art’s is excellent!

One of the BEST burgers on property in my burger expert opinion😊

Thanks for this review! We were finally going to try Homecomin this year after going to Boathouse last 3 trips since 2019....but after this review that was kinda meeehhhhhh....I don't know what to do!! Anyone have an opinion if it's worth giving Homcomin' a shot or stick with the Boathouse? Or a better restaurant to try in Disney Springs?

Dinner in the magic kingdom

Tawanda! Same 😂

I've eaten there once. I'm southern and we like a lot of flavor and found the food to be rather bland.

No one ordered fried chicken!?!? What is the point of going to Homecoming? lol. The food choices of the group were deff lackluster and didn’t do the restaurant justice. Sorry 🤷🏽‍♂️

There is dairy in cauliflower?

RYNO !!! You got a chicken salad sandwich!!! The fried chicken??? Sliders? Mac and Cheese ??? Try the good stuff :) No hate though, none, but you ordered like the worst thing on the menu :)

"Homecomin' is meh" Did you get the deviled eggs? - No Chicken and dumplings? - No Thigh high chicken biscuits? - No Hush puppies? -No What about the fried chicken? - No why would we order fried chicken at a fried chicken restaurant? Country fried steak? - Heavens no Cheddar biscuits? - Nope Mac and cheese? - No Mashed potatoes? - Negative Moonshine? - Not in this economy Well tell me at least you got the hummingbird cake? - No definitely not Ok so then what did you get? Please don't tell me it was a chicken salad sandwich because we all know you don't care for chicken salad. I got the chicken salad sandwich 🤦‍♂️ Next week's dining review is Gideon's where the team will rate the brussel sprouts. John and Kevin gave you all the blueprint on dining reviews y'all are driving this channel into the ditch.

Only one that didnt give it high ratings

breakfast is much better!

I like raisins in carrot cake 😂

I've finally figured it out. Ryno is inherently disordered and unnatural not because he's gay (like I am), but because he doesn't like Homecomin'. My usual order there is Deviled Eggs, Thigh High Biscuit Sliders, side of Macaroni and Cheese, and the Hummingbird Cake.

Does anyone recognize the characters on Ryno's shirt?

Yeah, there's better out there. Agree with Ryno.

Did you guys get into the moonshine?

Ryno is smoking hot!!!

Would have liked to see Erica get a drink since she didn't get dessert! Still not super impressed by Homecomin'

Who in the hell goes to homecomin and orders cauliflower? Why not go to Italian restaurant and ask for sushi. And then have the nerve to complain about it
