If you only could choose one....

For my family, it would definitely be Chef Mickey! IMO, the breakfast food is better than the dinner food, but the experience with the characters is wonderful! We also had a bad experience with Crystal Palace last year. We are going to try it again though.
 
I like Chef Mickey's, but you can't go wrong with either. If your a fan of Disney originals then go to Chef Mickey's if your a Pooh/Tigger fan then go to Crystal Palace. We've booked CP for breakfast for our up and coming trip.
 

For dinner it would definately be CP. We will not do dinner again at CM, the food was terrible. Breakfast was a lot better.
 
Definately Crystal Palace because the food is still edible there.

Chef Mickey's used to be our go to place...the food was good, it was a clean fun environment. Not anymore, food is disgusting, lol. Even our grandson wouldn't eat it and he eats everything.
 
Chef Mickey's. IMO the food is better there. We've had bad luck with the food and service at CP on a few occasions.
 
Personally, we've given up on lunch/dinner buffets at Disney (except for Biergarten) due to two horrible experiences at Hollywood & Vine and dinner at Chef Mickey's the last time we went was mediocre at best. We've never done dinner at Crystal Palace, but I would pick that one only because the last time at Chef Mickey's left a bad taste in our mouth.
 
Crystal Palace (eventhough we only go here for lunches)...I think the food selection is wonderful. We went to CM for dinner and the food selection was not good.
 
Crystal Palace! We went to CM for dinner in May and will never do it again. I would try breakfast there, but my DH doesn't even want to do that.
 
100% Crystal Palace. Will only do breakfast at CM and only that if we are driving or in a monorail resort. Love the characters, but i am not a fan of the food at all!!

That being said the CP dinner food isn't 5 star quality, but way better for us than CM.
 
For any meal I suggest Crystal Palace. Chef Mickey's food was terrible during our last visit. We wouldn't do it again.
 
Another fan of CP - have done all 3 meals there and will be picking it again come December
