Character Dining

[Jennycave]

Hi!
Planning a trip with my 3 and 4 year old boy’s. Any recommendations for best places to take them for meals?
First family trip

What characters are they interested in seeing?

Chef Mickey's is a popular spot but was a bit hard for us to get a reservation for, we ended up just not getting it. In Animal Kingdom, Tusker House has Mickey, Daisy, Donald, and Goofy in cute safari outfits and might be a bit easier to snag. I like their breakfast if your kids aren't very adventurous eaters, but they should be there for dinner as well.

Topolino's Terrace. It's $$$ but the food is actually good in addition to some really fun character interaction. It features Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Daisy who are on a European vacation and learning about the arts (painting, poetry, sculpture, dance) - and their costumes are reflective of that. Each of the four does a "loop" around the restaurant by themselves and then all four do a parade of sorts together. We typically see the entire circuit at least twice if not three times in a meal (but we do take our time). Also, not advertised, but you can order more than one entree. For example we typically get a "side" of waffles and also the fruit plate to share amongst ourselves in addition to our individual entrees. Topolino's is at the Riviera Resort so on the Skyliner and a pretty easy trip to EPCOT or Hollywood Studios after breakfast/brunch.
