Any TS restaurants I should add?

[celina14]

We will be traveling in November/December and are on FD. It will be myself, DH, DD5 and DS2. Here are the TS I have planned as of right now (pending that I can actually get all my ADRs). I think we have room for one more TS meal because there's a couple I would pay OOP anyway. What should I add keeping in mind the ages of my children? Any that you would scratch? Not really looking for signature because my son can get a little impatient so looking more for good for the kids but also good food. Thanks!

'Ohana Character Breakfast- my DD loves Stitch
'Ohana Dinner- I know reviews are mixed but we've never eaten here and I really want to try it
Raglan Road Dinner
Y&Y Dinner- one of our favorite meals from last trip so want to do this one again on AK day
CRT either late Bfast or early Lunch- this is a must do for my DD Bday
BOG Dinner
H&V Minnie Holiday Dinner- I think it would be really neat to see the characters in the holiday gear
Akershus Princess Bfast- will probably only do this if I can get a PPO ADR
Coral Reef Dinner- no 100% sold on this but I think my kids would like the aquarium
LTT Lunch- mainly for the Toffee Cake
Chef Mickey's Dinner- Mainly for the characters, not so much the food

So any suggestions on something great that I'm missing. It's already pretty character meal heavy so don't necessarily need another character meal but it would need to be something that could keep my kids interested so they don't terrorize the other guests! LOL! Total joke, I'd never let my kids disrupt other peoples' meals.

Thanks for the help!

I'd skip Chef Mickey. You get every character there in other planned character meals, without having to actually eat at Chef Mickey.

You already have an AK restaurant, or I'd recommend Tusker House. Biergarten and Teppan Edo are both quite engaging for kids at Epcot.

I would drop Akershus as it would be too similar to CRT. I would drop CM because it is similar to H&V but with worse food.

If they like animals, Sanaa is really fun since you can watch animals while you eat. For another Epcot, our kids liked Teppan Edo for the fun show.

We really love Garden Grill in EPCOT. Also we love Sanaa at AKL.

Whispering Canyon (lunch or dinner) was fun for my son last year. He had so much fun carrying ketchup bottles around from table to table. I didn't expect him to participate, but he loved it. He was so funny about it other tables would call him over to help carry theirs.

Biergarten kept him entertained (though he wouldn't go down to participate).

Tusker House is a must do every year. We've always done breakfast, but we're trying dinner on our upcoming trip.

Otherwise, we have most of the same picked out. My son is 4, and he's been going since he was 2.

Thanks for all the suggestions! Chef Mickey's is a big maybe right now anyway so that could easily go. I'm keeping Akershus only for the fact that if I can get a PPO ADR it could give us an advantage for either Frozen Ever After or A&E M&G. If it turns out that it won't help with that, I'll drop it because you're right, we will already have a princess meal at CRT. But, the Frozen attractions are absolute musts for my daughter and I'm anticipating only being able to FP+ one or the other so if this gives us a jump on the lines, we'll keep it. I'm going to wait and see what others are saying once the attractions finally open but I'd rather have it in case I need it. A lot of the AKL restaurants appeal to me but just not sure where to fit one it, we are only planning a day at AK as it stands and not sure if it's worth it to trek back over there just for dinner one night. But it's a possibility. I'd really like to try Boma actually and I haven't looked into Sanaa much but I'll look at the menu! And Teppan Edo and Whispering Canyon are great suggestions too! Thanks!

I agree with Biergarten and Whispering Canyon. Kept both of my kids entertained and the food was great in both places.

My kids aren't little anymore but we still all love Garden Grill dinner. Great food and the best character interaction every time we have gone.
