I know that "best" and "lunch" and "inside MK" do not really go hand-in-hand, but within those restrictions, what is your favorite and why?

Considering:
- CRT (have had lunch here, I liked it, DH would rather skip the whole "experience")
- Crystal Palace (what's on the menu for lunch here), had dinner here a few years ago and it was chaotic and forgetable, although the kids liked the peel n eat shrimp)?
- Liberty Tree (have had lunch here - DH liked it, I thought it was OK)
- Tony's
- Plaza (very limited menu, especially since I'm not much of a sandwich gal, but the salads look fine)
 
we always enjoy Crystal Palace. we prefer dinner over breakfast.

In Feb we did CRT and it was our best meal of the entire trip!!
 
I'm looking for an early lunch, not dinner. We have ADRs at Cali Grill at 5:40 pm. I don't want to spend too much time getting in/out MK.

Re the monorail restaurants, the choices at lunch are very limited. We've had lunch at Kona before and it was just OK. Only option outside MK I am considering is the GF Cafe, which does have a nice menu, but we only have one day at MK, so I'm limited on the time.

Crystal Palace has some nice offerings at dinner, but what about lunch? :confused3
 

Grand Floridian Cafe is my DH's favorite!!!! But inside the MK I enjoy the burgers and shakes at the Plaza!!! Liberty Tree was good too!!!
 
I liked the food at Cosmic Ray's in Tomorrowland. The chicken and ribs combo was pretty good and you could share it. You could also get hamburgers, salad and other stuff.
 
Everytime we go to MK we always eat lunch at CP. The food is delicious, good variety and we love the atmosphere.
 
If you are just looking for a simple well prepared lunch, I would suggest Liberty Tree. I rarely eat beef but had a very good burger here last month, we also enjoyed the larger fries. We actually went for the toffee cake but found the food and service to be better than our last visit. We have enjoyed the Plaza for awhile but our last two visits were just soso there.

If you want something more varied we love The Wave. Though you may not want to make a second trip to the CR.
 
So you dont wanna leave MK because of time.....MK options are: CP, Liberty Tree, and Plaza. And nobody in your party is crazy about any of those places?? Lol! Wow, ok!

(i'd never recommend Tony's, gross).

My first pick would be Liberty Tree. I've always loved the food there. I think if you go to CP you'd be too full for dinner. So i'd skip that. Even thou I LOVED their lunch offerings. Very yummy. And i love the atmosphere.

Other than that, you might wanna go to a CS place like Cosmic Rays. That might be your best bet.
