You would only have to pay if you want to valet your car - otherwise you go to the security guard at the gate and tell them you are going for dinner at cm - they give you a pass to put in your window it's good for 3 hours, I think.
We just did this october 23rd. We told them at the gate we were eating at chef mickeys and they waved us right thru told us to have fun. No pass no nothing. We even took a little ride on the monorail after.
