I would love to see the original menu.


ETA: Not the original, but I like the prices.

While the prices are much higher, the dishes are almost all still there.

And looking at the prices, they really aren't all that bad.

Perhaps the food isn't all that good anymore?

I haven't been since I was a kid.

For all the hype the food is subpar at best.

Tom Fitzmorris approves it, which is why I avoid it.

It's not just the food, the whole experience sucks these days. Crappy service, mauseoleum atmosphere, tourists walking around in jerseys and sandals. No thanks.

Christmas time is the only time to go anymore.

it is basically the restaurant in Ratatouille. Great tradition and should be better but has gotten watered down buy years of continued success.

Hard to change when you have been printing money for 176 years
