Thanks DCDisney. That's too bad. Thank you for your reply. We were fortunate to get the free dining and Chef Mickey's was the one table service restaurant that we were planning on paying for out of pocket. I might be reconsidering this.I loved Goofy's Kitchen! It is everything Chef Mickey's is not. GK has such variety in food items and good quality food too. The characters spent so much time at our table and really played their roles.

Does anyone know how the dinner compares to Goofy's Kitchen at Disneyland Hotel? The food and character interaction are usually pretty good there. If Chef Mickey's isn't very good, than maybe I won't have to stay up until 3am to get my ADR?!
In response to the OP, kinda, but we still do it. For one thing, it's the only(?) place to see Minnie at a character meal on the DDP (actually I'd love for someone to correct me if I'm wrong!!) and my oldest DD once tripped and fell while we were at Chef Mickey's and Minnie helped her up and kissed her head. She LOOOOVED that and has NOT stopped talking about it (I think it was like 4 years ago??), and the characters have been great with us! The food hasn't been great (especially the adorable Mickey Mac & Cheese... how do you get Mac & Cheese wrong, especially when it's in Mickey shapes?) but we've always found something to eat that fills us up so we've never left hungry. So while it's not my FAVORITE place to go, it is one of my kids' top places and because of that and the fact that they won't stay little for much longer, we'll keep going for now.
Oh that's good to know, thanks!! I haven't done either of those since I was a kidOn DDP, Minnie appears at Cape May breakfast and Mickeys Backyard BBQ.
