You didnt list the meals so I think people might be holding back their thoughts.....
We did TH breakfast, was fine but we were disappointed (trying lunch this time)
Did Ohana for dinner 3 years ago- we seem to be one of the few that had a horrible , horrible experience and will not go back
Crystal Palace- love breakfast but only if we can get it before rope drop
Have heard very minimal positive reviews of Tonys but we have never been

On your list we have done 'Ohana dinner and agree with the prior comment that it is horrible and also would not go back there.

We did not like it either. We were really unhappy since we had no silverware

I'd skip Tony's.

 

[Eli's 1st trip]

OK so if I skip Tonys Town Square, where do I eat Dinner in MK with 6 people? Also, I have heard mixed reviews on Ohana but wanted to try it so I think we will keep it, we've never done it so I think we will risk it.

We have been to Ohana a number of times and it is one of our must do's every trip. I so agree with skipping Tony's, there are so many other TS restaurants to choose from. I don't know your schedule, but there are some great options at Epcot that I would definitely choose before Tony's.

Ideally Be Our Guest but I realize it is tough to get.

If you are open to QS, Columbia Harbour House is good. The new TS restaurant Skippers Canteen is coming late this year, so that might be an option as well, although I'm sure it will be even tougher to get than BOG.

OK NEW ISSUE...Epcot and MK ...I need TS ideas for both of these park days....for DINNER....it doesnt have to be IN the park but we do not have hoppers so cant switch parks....my boys are so picky and are NOT adventurous eaters. I am strongly leaning toward Coral Reef in Epcot....Any thoughts?
Also, what should I do about Tony's Town Square? If I cancel it we wont have a TS for dinner that night and nothing else really appealed to us and reservation are filling up quickly since we are going Mardi Gras week!

Also, we have the Dining Plan, so I am trying to use up all my dining credit thats why Im planning TS vs QS...
Thanks again for all yalls advice!!

Via Napoli is a great option in Epcot. As for near the Magic Kingdom you could try dinner at Chef Mickey at the Contemporary. I would strongly suggest The Wave, which also is at the Contemporary but since you said your sons are picky that may not work.

 

[senadler]

I agree with Via Napoli for Epcot. I would not pick Coral Reef with picky eaters.

Some people love Tony's and you may like it. If you like Italian and go in without any expectations it may surprise you. Either way I wouldn't cancel the reservation, but instead you can keep searching for BOG or any other choice and if it becomes available you can book it and cancel your Tony's at the same time. The system will recognize if you have another ressie within the same time frame and ask if you want to cancel it when you book the new one. As for Coral Reef it isn't one of our favorites, but if you like Italian there's Via Napoli or Tutto Italia. I hear Via Napoli has great pizza and what kid doesn't love pizza! We are heading there for our upcoming trip. Good luck!
