We have eaten at almost all Disney restaurants as we eat table service only (a few counter service here or there for soups or sandwiches), so we just tried Donald's last week while at AK. We were so disappointed - huge problems in being let into the park for our ADR, the characters came to our table for literally seconds, cramped tables, dark restaurant (photos didn't turn out), limited breakfast selections and high prices. We ate at Park Fare (it's one of our fav restaurants) the next day for breakfast, and what a difference!
Honestly, we have a tradition in which we try every Disney restaurant at least once in order to make up our own minds about them, but we will never eat here again. I guess our first clue should have been that this buffet is housed in a McDonald's (we don't eat any fast food at all - yuck!) restaurant.
Not sure if what we experienced is the norm here or not, but I wanted to warn people about the lack of character interaction - we wouldn't have felt so badly had they spent a few more seconds with us and our photos had turned out better. I know the restaurant is huge and they have a lot of ground to cover, but spending a few seconds at a table is not acceptable at all.
