Disney Dining reviews from vacation

[rugman1969]

First off, everyone should do Chef Mickeys breakfast. It is always awesome. Large buffet and lots of character visits.

2nd,
Ohana character breakfast. Also a must for anyone and everyone, especially the kiddies. In the Polynesian 2nd floor. Table service buffet. Lots of characters.

Fort Wilderness campground:
Trails End Rest.
Walk up buffet style. Not bad, next door to hoop de do revue. Take the boat there. The bus ride is way too lengthy.

Boardwalk
Big River Grill.
Sit down. Excellent food. On the Boardwalk, so you have a beautiful view.

Wilderness Lodge

Whispering Canyon Cafe

Good food, the entertainment is better than the food. Ask for the ketchup, even if you don't need it. Sit down eating, no buffet.

Hollywood Studios

50's Prime Time Cafe. Good food, entertainment is better than the food, but the closest you will get to homemade food at Disney. Atmosphere and setup is awesome. Keep your elbows off the table, or you will get punished.

Magic Kingdom

Crystal Palace Character Buffet

Expect to wait, even with reservations. Walk up buffet, lots of characters. Very pretty place, but the food is so-so. Definitely for kids. You will need a valid park ticket to go here.

Downtown Disney

Planet Hollywood.

Good food, but really loud. Hard to place order its so loud. Setup is cramped, but decor is awesome. Expect to wait even with reservations. Food good.

Quick service

Every quick service is the same. There are some slight variations in the menu here and there, but overall the same. Food is ok, but will put the pounds on eating too much of it. Nothing to look forward too. Like going to mcdonalds or taco bell everyday.

Agree with you on CM breakfast, it was awesome! We ate alot of delish stuff and the characters were great!

Yeah! I mostly agree! I was definitely dissapointed up until very recently with counter service and snack credit options, but if you look, there are some choices that go beyond fast food kind of eats.

Cosmic Ray's Starlight Cafe in Tomorrowland has really tasty veggie burgers and wraps, and greek salads, (I'm a vegetarian, so I look out for these things at the parks) and the broccoli slaw sandwich with vegetarian chilli on the side at Columbia Harbor House is a delicious and fresh change from your usual french fries or pizza (though I ain't dissin' Animal Kingdom's Pizzafari!)

I agree, Crystal Palace is so-so...I prefer it for breakfast as opposed to the lunch buffet

Also, the dining plan included Wolfgang Puck Express in Downtown Disney. I highly recommend this too. It is a non-Disney restaurant, so the food selection is totally different. Also, the food is awesome. The pizza is great. Next time, I will eat here more often. I believe it used a quick service too.

Absolutely loved the Tusker House Character Breakfast.
