House of Blues

I was looking at the House of Blues at DTD as a possible place to eat one night for dinner.

Is this appropriate for a 4 year old? I would imagine it's loud, but I was not sure. I saw a kids' menu but still wanted to see what you guys thought.

ETA: Also, does anyone know if you can order one of the salads (cobb salad, etc..) instead of an entree?

We've been there with our kids several times and it's fine. The restaurant is separated from the performance area and I didn't find it louder than any other restaurant. My DS was 11 last time and ordered one of the adult appetizers instead of an entree so I don't think you'd have any problem ordering a salad.

OK, great! I think my DH will want a salad. He eats healthier than me most of the time.

I really enjoyed House of Blues, the one time I went. The menu is really extensive so guess you'll have no problems ordering salad as an entree. The ribs were particularly delicious. Also, you used to be able to get some good coupons with a bit of research. We used a restaurant.com voucher and saved a fortune. It might be worth checking if they are still participating in that program.

Good idea, then we can use our sit down dinner from the dining plan somewhere else.

HOB doens't participate in Restaurant.com anymore, sorry!

I haven't been there since they re-did the menu, but some of the good things stayed on it. My last trip (May 2011), I had the ribeye, salad and the skillet of cornbread. Yum!!!! No, I didn't eat the whole skillet ; I took the leftovers back to the room for breakfasts.

Very good food and not at all a problem for kids when we have been there. I love the Shrimp Po Boy they have!

Eaten there at DL and WDW. Kids are totally welcome and finding what you want is not a problem for them.

I had a great salad as the evening was still warm and I just wanted something light. It was great!

I love house of blues I don't thinks it's any louder than other restaurants and is quieter than O'hana. Lots to look at in there too.
