Help me pick my last Epcot ADR!!! (please)

[jensuelee]

Hi, I am having trouble settling on my last ADR for our trip in October. It will be myself, DH, DS 5, DS 3, and DD2. I am trying to decide between Garden Grill, Chefs de France, and Coral Reef. Here is what we have for the rest of the week, if that helps:

Day 1 - Kouzzina dinner
Day 2 - Teppan Edo dinner
Day 3 - Hoop de Doo Revue
Day 4 - Kona Cafe dinner
Day 5 - ?????
Day 6 - 1900 Park Fare dinner

Thanks!!

I think I would do GG for the character interaction.

The kids would love Coral Reef. The food is good and the atmosphere is nice and it has an awesome Aquarium.

The kids will love the acquarium in Coral Reef, and we also like the food there thought service is a little slower then other restaurants at WDW

I would do Chefs de France...maybe you could even do a late lunch/ early dinner and see Remy if he is still there.

I really enjoy our meals at Chefs

I would do Garden Grill based on the ages of your children. You will have a great time and the character interaction there is the best of any character meal (in my opinion).

Chefs de France! If you're lucky you might get to see Remy!

I would go to Coral Reef. We went on our last trip but decided to try Chefs de France on this visit. I do not like the food at Garden Grill.

One more vote for the Coral Reef,mainly because of the aquarium.Your kids should enjoy waching the fish and the food is pretty good also

I would definitely vote for Garden Grill - mainly for the kids and especially based on their ages. We love Chef's - really enjoy it for lunch, and thought the food was very good. Our three boys loved seeing Remy, but it's very brief and then the rest of the meal is like a non-character meal.

But Garden Grill has been our boys' favorite restaurant since our oldest was 18 months old. (Now he's a pre-teen!) The character interaction is outstanding, the food is good, and it's a really fun memory for the kids! The characters come around throughout the meal - Mickey, Chip/Dale and Pluto - and we usually see each one twice while we are there. And the kids love how the restaurant rotates to see different scenes in the Land. It's a great choice with little ones!

Garden Grill for the characters. We thought Coral Reef was ok in January but definately not a "must do".

We really have enjoyed GG...The food is very kid friendly, the atmosphere is great for kids and the character interaction is some of the best on property...We have been three times and characters always visited the table twice (all three times)...If you do go there ask to sit on the lower ring...You feel like you are there alone and you can see the top of the Land ride with ease...The food is always fresh...NOT fancy for sure but great for families!

Otherwise we would choose the CR for the beauty of the tanks and the kid menu has some good choices.

I also vote for Garden Grill...we loved it! The picture in my signature is from that meal- best character interaction and I though the food was yummy. Plus since you don't have any Mickey meals, your kids will love it...

I'd do Garden Grill for the kids--great character interaction and kid friendly.

May Chefs if you can confirm that Remy is still there. My DGS, 18 mos at the time, adored seeing Remy and his handler is quite funny.

Another vote for Garden Grill. The food is good American and family style so you can always have more. Plus they will get to see characters and ride a ride!
