We are unable to get dinner ressie for Tonys, so we will have a late lunch there. I know we will need something to eat later in the night. Which counter service is the best.
 
Cosmic Ray's! Can't go wrong with that. They have a huge selection and a topping bar!
 
We love Cosmic Rays, they a little bit of everthing, but we always go for the burgers!
 
it mainly depends on what your looking for. cosmic rays usually stays open to the bitter end of emh with burgers, chicken, and wraps. columbia harbor house and the little area outside of it (near where you park for haunted mansion but before you get to liberty tree tavern) have more healthier options, fresh fruits, salads etc..., pecos bills has some similar options to cosmic rays but if you just want something bad for you they have chili cheese fries lol.
 

Columbia Harbor House (best tuna sandwich I ever had), after that nothing really awesome, but we do go to Cosmic Rays or Pecos Bills for the burgers.
 
I like Pecos Bills because of their chicken wrap (HUGE) and the atmosphere in the back room that has more of an Adventureland kind of feel. It's usually quiet and very cool in the hot weather.
 
My family has always ate at Columbia Harbour House. We used to always get fries at Cosmic Rays.

I think the truth is, there IS NOT a bad counter service restaurant in the Magic Kingdom. Now I haven't been for years, and have ate at some for even longer... but most of their options are pretty generic (chicken breast nuggets, pizza, burgers, ribs) and can't go wrong.
 
Columbia Harbor House or Pecos Bills are great. We also love the place that was the Pirate and the Parrot (might be Tortoga Tavern now)

We've always been in Pecos Bills when it's been crazy busy, until last trip. It was late & almost desserted - we sat in that back room & for the 1st time got to actually see it - it has awesome Adventureland theming!
 
I really like Columbia Harbor house and Cosmic Rays. The shrimp/fish basket is great at CHH and I LOVE the ribs at Cosmic Rays.
 
Instead of eating at the Magic Kingdom, we like to zip over to the Grand Floridian and eat at either the Grand Floridian Cafe (table service) or Gasparilla's (counter service). It's a quick ride on the monorail, and it's a refreshing break from the noise and activity of the park. The food is very good at both places, and service is great at the Cafe. If the weather is pleasant, we like to get carryout at Gasparilla's and sit at a table by the water.

We've also had good experiences at The Wave in the Contemporary Resort. Reservations should be fairly easy to get at The Wave and GF Cafe, even with short notice. (I've gotten same-day ressies at The Wave.)
 
We love the Contempo Cafe at the Contemporary!!!!!:wizard: But Pecos Bills is our fav MK CS restaurant.
 
I'd go with Columbia Harbor House. It's more laid back, as seafood isn't as popular. Maybe it was just a bad burger, but I had a terrible burger at Cosmic Ray's last September.
 
I only had one CS at MK, the Columbia Harbor House, but my DH and I really enjoyed it!
