We did it on the week end when the 2 characters are there. Our ds are teens so they only cared about the food which was great. A huge selection and chef made to order omlets. I think the characters were goofy and pluto, I cant remember. They didnt stay long, but made more short frequent trips to the tables. They had a handler, same as in the parks. For the food it was definetely worth the money, but if you want more than 2 characters and I dont think they take the Dining Plan, so that may influence your decision. I think they had mickey waffles too.
