best restaurants for young kids?

[jeast]

We are going the beginning of October and want to go to restaurants the kids will enjoy/tolerate. DD2 tends to be high maintenance so quick service, mild entertainment, and tolerant guests are a must!

Here are our tentative choices:

Cinderella's Castle (dinner during MNSSHP)
Mama Melrose Cafe
Crystal Palace character lunch
Hoop dee doo review
Ohana's

Are these reasonable choices or do you have better suggestions?

I think these are good choices except Mama Melrose's. I would suggest Hollywood and Vine with a 2 year old. We took dd 3 to Mama Melrose's and the atmosphere just wasn't for her. Food was too fancy for her. She wasn't thrilled with the atmosphere either. At least H&V is a buffet and she can get different things to eat.

Sci Fi Drive-In at MGM. Wait staff on roller skates. Movies. Eating in cars. Popcorn. What could be better for kids?

If you could squeeze Chef Mickey's in CR in your schedule, you won't regret it! I agree Sci Fi is a great choice as well.

Yeah, I know Mama Melrose is not really a kid restaurant but we love basic italian food and were hoping to enjoy that one for us. We're definitely considering changing it up.
