Best dining with kids?

[Lucky'sMom]

We will be visiting US/IOA for 4 days after a one day visit to MK. My kids love "fun" dining (themed, characters, etc). DS 9, DD 7, DD, 5. Could you please tell me what character meals there are, (I know there is a breakfast in IOA and maybe some dinners at the resorts?) how I make reservations, how far out I can make reservations, and also any other restaurants that would be fun. At Citywalk, I was thinking of maybe Nascar and Margaritaville? Thanks so much!

Margaritaville has a couple of guys walking around on stilts who will make animal balloons for diners. No charge but a tip is probably appreciated. My 5 year old son fell asleep while eating the huge volcano nachos! Sort of loud with the large overhead projection of Jimmy buffet playing music, but a fun atmosphere.

Your 9 year old may be too "old" for spidey at the Spiderman breakfast, but the girls will enjoy Thing 1 & Thing 2. They are cute, furry, and very blue. Lots of character interaction at the Spiderman breakfast. Wish they had more superheroes like Storm or even Barney, the purple dinosaur!

I was thinking of either Margaritavill or Hard Rock w/ My 3 -DS-11, DS-9 and DD 8.
Which would be more appealing to kids this age?

The restaurant at the Royal Pacific Resort has a character dinner buffet on a Saturday evening. When we were there it was shaggy and scooby and they were excellent. Food was excellent too.

My DS always likes NBA City

I highly suggest Mythos. Their kid's menu is really good and the atmosphere is amazing. There are no characters but it is very cool!

Margaritaville was both kid and parent friendly. My kids loved the stilt guys! These guys were very personable with the kids. My son loved NBA city as well as Nascar. There are a lot of options out there.
