Recently, dining package users have been entering through the main entrance. No indication as to whether this is a permanent or temporary change. The reserved seating area is the same.
If you are booking the Fantasmic package with the basic dining plan at Mama Melrose or Brown Derby, the reports are that yes, everyone, adult or child, can order an appetizer - but only with the package. If you dine at these restaurants without the Fantasmic package, no appetizer is included with basic dining.
You would not be entitled to adult appetizers on basic dining at California Grill.
Has the entrance changed recently to the regular entrance of the auditorium? So we no longer have to go to the entrance near the park entrance? And I have another question. We are using 2 TS points for eating at CA Grill and Brown Derby. Do we get appetizers? Or does it still apply that only ages 3-9 get these? I was planning on not having an appetizer choice but got confused with some of the info. 
Thanks you guys!
