Chef Mickey's dinner has terrible reviews. We love the breakfast there though. We weren't overly impressed with the food at the 1900 Park Fare dinner either but the characters were great. You should keep trying for an O'hana dinner. I'd stay it cannot be missed.

I was going to ask which parks you were doing on each day, but after looking at your list, I have to ask if you're doing any parks at all. Where are you staying?

I'd probably drop two reservations on 10/2. Starting at the Poly, then going to HS, and ending at the GF? Unless you're staying at one of those resorts, I'd cut out two of those meals. I might keep two if one of them was at your resort.

On 10/3, again, cut out two of these. You've got lunch and dinner at the resort; lunch at Kidani and dinner at Jambo House. Unless you're staying at that resort, drop two of these.

Thank you! I only added the 1900 park fare because I heard how fun it was... But is it worth it?
And I am debating which of or just to drop both Sanaa and boma...
We are doing parks, but on our AK and HS days we aren't staying long in the parks.

Oh, and we are at AOA

hands down Chef Mickey's dinner...was horrible food, service and character interaction for us last summer, plus I was up sick the entire night. 1900 Park Fare is one of our favorites...50's Prime Time was another one we weren't impressed with too. But I would vote for Chef Mickey's Dinner

1900 Park Fare is one of our favorite dinners and we do it once a year at the least! The characters are amazing and always into the role. Love that place for dinner, we are trying the breakfast this summer for the first time too.

Chef Mickeys has been divine. From food to service. I avoided them thinking they were so bad from the reviews. I was wrong. It was amazing! The servers were great, the characters awesome, and best? The food! It was so fresh! We went on a late breakfast and a late dinner and everything was clean, replenished, and the whole thing was terrific. I now take all reviews with a big grain of salt.

1900 characters are awesome, and we do go just for them, but the food is a nightmare. Not dirty as people complain about CM (kids are there, it happens although our recent trips it was not at all), but the quality there really is junk. The decor is tired, the staff is over it, and the food shows all this. It makes the Crystal Palace look like shangrala! We're foodies and know what to expect at Disney, but wow was it the worst food we'd had. My kid has an MSG and soy allergy and I have a mustard one. It's not only the one place we could barely find anything for us to eat (my husband is a bear and will eat anything all while saying it is terrible lol), but it was the ONLY place in recent trips with deluxe dining that the chef never offered to make us any other food. He looked at me crazy when I finally begged for something simple like a couple of plain scrambled eggs because we were starving.

Now maybe we just got lucky but all 3 times (Alice got ill and never came out our first breakfast so for kiddo, we had to go back, ugh!) this happened, AND we had one terrible waitress. The same one. Every time. It was my birthday and she seemed to think slapping a cupcake on the pile of dirty dishes after we were done was as good as service. But other people around us were complaining as well.

Also, people will probably get ridiculously angry at you for "holding" extra reservations. Just so you know in advance. I recently had someone yell at me until I explained we are on deluxe and do 3 meals a day, I was not "hoarding."

Good info! And I dropped both Sanaa and boma so all the ADRs scheduled are ones we pla n on doing! no hoarding here! We are going more for food than parks it seems lol. Our kids are special needs and enjoy restaurants more than rides for the most part

My kiddo is now 4 and has (thankfully mild) SPD as well as food allergies. We've been going since she was 2 and character meals with deluxe dining have been awesome. Have fun!
