How does Crystal Palace lunch compare to dinner?

How is the Crystal Palace lunch? We've done the dinner before, but are doing lunch this time to try something different, and because it works well with our itinerary. How does it compare to the dinner? Thanks!

We have done all three meals at CP and enjoyed each of them. The lunch buffet has a good selection, but there were sandwich fix-ins at lunch. There were a lot of other items too, I just remember the lunch meat items.

The breakfast buffet is actually our favorite!! I love the deep fried french toast and cheesy potatoes! DELISH!

I made lunch ADRs there for the sake of our DGSs who were traveling with us. I wasn't expecting much & it turned out to be surprisingly good. We adults we very pleased with the selection & quality. We were the first seating, so that really helps with quality & freshness on a buffet. The things that really stood out for me were the wonderful salads. I would most definately do lunch there again, with or without little folks.

We have been to the Crystal Palace twice during lunch and are going again in June for lunch. We loved the lunch there. I remember they had the normal kids offerings (chix strips, mac n cheese). There were many salads and lunch meats. I loved the salmon, jasmine rice, and sliced beef. There were other dishes I can't remember because I pretty much stuck with what I mentioned. I am a very picky eater and was very happy with Crystal Palace.

We also like lunch time because it gets you out of the heat at "high noon". We prefer to take a break in the afternoon and come back later but don't want to be tied down to an ADR in the evening. We want to take it easy in the evening and get the CS then.

We've booked a dinner there for our September trip, mainly because of the prime rib offering. I haven't eaten there in years. The last time we ate there, I was about 10 years old and my mother accidently started to walk in the men's room and Ron Howard (Happy Day's) was leaving at the very same second! I think it's time to visit there again.

We try to work in both lunch & dinner @ CP each trip, our fav. TS MK site.

Esp. when paying OOP; late lunch is a great deal. Easier/shorter wait time to get seated; lots of the same dishes (no peel & eat shrimp though).

The wild mushroom/chicken pasta w/basil asiago cream sauce is to die for
