free meals for 2yo?

I just read in another thread that 2 year olds are given a free toddler meal at sit down restaurants? Can anyone verify this?

If it's a buffet, they are not charged and they can have their own plate. If it's a menu, I think they have to pay if they want an individual meal.

Here is the post I read that mentioned it. I have NO idea if it holds true with other places, or even if it's still true at Ariel's Grotto.

Our dd only got free food at the buffets. At RB's they were really nice and brought her out the sides that came with my ds's meals, but no where else did they do this. But they were happy everywhere we ate to bring her a plate and let us share, no extra charge (even at BB and CO). She was 19 months when we went.

I only have experience at WDW. We only did 1 table-service meal, lunch at Cinderella's castle. They brought our 2-yr-old a free plate of pasta w/butter and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. So, perhaps at the character meals they give them something for free?

We went on our first family trip to DL (this was in 2008) when our son was 2.5 and our daughter was 4.5. At Ariel's, our daughter ordered the macaroni and cheese dish and I also ordered the same thing for my son--they both received the *exact* same dish...same size and everything. The only difference was that we paid for hers and his was free. At Minnie's, they both ate off the buffet--except we had to pay for her and his meal was free. At Carnation Cafe we paid for both of them.
