Whispering canyon just changed its menu so make sure you check the new menus before making a decision
We would no longer eat there because of the change
Also DD was very disappointed in her server in August this year
She said the server didn't do any of the normal fun things
She was just a regular server
DD said it was their most disappointing meal on their trip this time
And we usually love it there

I would def say trex. There is a great shop and the dinodig for after or whilst waiting for your meal. Remember if you cant book online phone them direct as disney only has a limited number of tables allocated to them.
I also think crystal palace is an excellent dinner buffet. With kids the meals get monotomous so the buffets allow them to hv what they want.
U hv some great choices.
I also like ohanas but others dont.

Ahh yes Ohana is one other we've repeated also! Loved Ohana's and can't wait to try it again, so much so we've booked the character breakfast again and the dinner which we've never done before :D

T-rex is also on our must-do list.
you get huge portions. Last time we got the gigantosorus burger, and it was great. Only food we found was so-so was the kid's lasagna. He didn't like it (and neither did we when we tasted the dish) tasted too much like cheap canned ravioli.
But we'll definitely try something else when we return this month.

Ohana is probably the only place I'm not willing to give up on.
this character breakfast is great. it's a all you can eat buffet but you get served at your table.
Character interaction is great and kids get to parade around the restaurant with the characters. Great fun. A bit noisy, but we love it.
In november we'll try it for the first time for dinner to celebrate my 41st birthday. I just can't wait.

@wayne : you're right, I didn't factor in the fact that tips are included with the dinner shows. And since we don't drink alcohol I guess my answer was a bit biased

We really enjoyed T-Rex when we were out in Orlando in August. One thing to note is that they only seem to release a limited number of tables to Disney. When we were trying to book, they only had times around 5pm or 9:30pm, neither much use to us. However, we contacted the restaurant directly through their website and got a 7:30pm slot straight away.

Also had a brilliant time at Hoop de Doo - as noted, the 2TS also includes beer/wine and tips, so no extras to pay for.

And yes, Wolfgang Puck Express is extremely good value for a CS location. This year, we visited the Marketplace location twice for breakfast (on non-Disney park days), but found that the location at Westside (near the AMC Cinema) was easier to get a table at in the evening (also ate there twice), albeit it does seem to have less choice than the marketplace location.

Sci-Fi is always on our list - it is very entertaining and we all enjoy the food there. We haven't tried 50's Prime Time Cafe but it usually gets very good reviews from those who have.
