I admit we have to explore much more of Epcot's restaurant offerings, but our family just loves Akershus so much- we've been there on three separate occasions and have never had a bad experience. When you're going to Disney World with little ones it's just such a great bang for your buck- you get so much for one dining credit! The princess character actors here are just so spot-on, and we love that you get the photo op with Belle before being seated, it just adds such a nice touch of extra Disney magic. We've been to Cinderella's Royal Table twice and were so disappointed- we felt that Akershus gave us the princess experience in a castle-like atmosphere that we were hoping for. As far as food goes, we love that you get a nice combination of part-buffet/part-table service. Some people think the buffet offerings are a little out there (it's Norwegian fare- cold meats, cheeses and fish, capers, etc.), but honestly we loved the opportunity to try out some great new flavors that we normally wouldn't be exposed to- we loved one of the cheeses so much that we asked our waitress where we can purchase it outside of Disney and she was happy to write it down for us, so now we have it at home too! That's one more thing we love about Akershus- the waitstaff are extremely knowledgable about the Norwegian food offerings and are happy to talk about it with you and where they come from- it's just a really well done, authentic experience all around, and has something for everybody in the family to love. (sorry for the length of this post, I really, really love Akershus! lol)
