Best Restaurants

Very subjective, depending on what you mean by "best" -- best value, best food, best service, best atmosphere, best for young kids, etc. But the good news is that there are a lot of good options! A couple of recent threads here and here with people sharing their favorites should provide some ideas. My favorites are below:

Magic Kingdom: don't have one - typically snack around or go to an MK-area resort
Hollywood Studios: Hollywood Brown Derby
Animal Kingdom: Tiffins or Yak and Yeti
EPCOT: Chefs de France, Via Napoli, La Hacienda de San Angel (dinner only)
 
MK -LTT (used to love the a la carte lunch since we can’t do the all you can eat hope they bring it back), Tony’s, and Be Our Guest. Also Crystal Palace buffet breakfast if they bring that back.
Epcot - Le Cellier, Tutto Italia, Chefs de France, and Coral Reef.
DHS - Hollywood Brown Derby and 50’s Prime Time Cafe.
AK - Rainforest Cafe.
WL - Whispering Canyon Cafe breakfast.
BC - Cape May buffet breakfast if they bring that back.
AKL - Boma breakfast or dinner hope they reopen.
 
AK - Tiffins
EP - Chefs de France
HS - Hollywood Brown Derby
MK - none. Take boat to WL for Whispering Canyon Cafe
 

If this thread is open long enough, every restaurant will be mentioned. LOL. Every place is someone's favorite and every place is someone's "never again".

For me:
MK - Skipper Canteen
Epcot - La Hacienda de San Angel
AK - have not eaten in a sit-down one here, trying Tiffins on my birthday in July
Studios - I don't go to the Studios since they essentially became Toy Story and Star Wars World.
 
im just getting some ideas. ive been there once and want to get ideas so i can try without going to the same restaurants that i already tried, so im looking for new places to try

ive been to:

MK: Skippers Canteen, Crystal Palace

EPCOT: Chip & Dales Garden Café, Lotus Blossom Café

DHS: The Brown Derby, Prime Time 50's

DAK: never been there yet

I typically view Disney dining through two lenses, the food and the atmosphere. We don't typically run into bad service, minus the few occasional bad servers. But those bad service experiences were always exceptions, not the rule with any Disney dining. So I won't count service here.

MK - Be Our Guest for amtosphere hands down. It used to be a favorite of ours for food too, before they started messing around with the menu. The menu went from an 8/9 out of 10, to maybe a 6. And this was before they introduced the price fix menu a few years ago, so I imagine it's probably even worse now.
Epcot - San Angel Inn for atmosphere. Le Cellier for food.
Hollywood Studios - Sci Fi for atmosphere. Brown Derby for food.
Animal Kingdom - Rainforest Cafe for atmosphere (only if you have kids - we don't so haven't been in more then a decade). For food, Tiffins.

But honestly, I think the best sit down dining options are in the hotels and/or at Disney Springs. Besides a bunch of spots in Epcot and Tiffins at AK, park sit down dining just doesn't cut it for us food wise.

probably wont do the Coral Reef since it sounds like sea food, im allergic to seafood
 
Here is our list:

MK - BOG or monorail over to one of the resorts (we aren't fans of California Grill)
HS - Don't really like any of their table restaurants here. I know some get some really good review but just not out thing
AK - Tiffins ------ or head to AKL and do Boma (when it ia open)
EPCOT - Le Celleir, Monsieur Paul (when it was open), Rose and Crown (great English/Irish meal), Beirgarten

Side note ----- we absolutely love Raglan Roads as DS
