What are your kids top 3 favorite Disney restaurants? Thinking about where to eat with our 2 and 4 year olds.
 
My kids love Chef Mickey’s, Sci-Fi, and (hear me out on this one) San Angel Inn. The food is not great at San Angel but the restaurant itself is incredible, especially if you get a table where you can see the Gran Fiesta Tour boats floating by. For lunch on a hot day, it is cool and relaxing inside. My kids request it every trip!
 
1. A) Chef Mickey
1. B) Topalinos
3.) Space 220

He’s a 4 year old boy who loves the Fab 5 and both are so much fun. He really enjoyed Space 220 because he thought we actually went to space and thought it was the best thing ever
 
I'm not sure if my kids have favorites but the nice part about WDW is I can usually find something on the menu that my pickier kid (who hates chicken nuggets with a passion) and my kid who eats anything will eat.

There's no order but these are the restaurants I typically book because they don't complain about the food.

1) Topolino's (breakfast and dinner)
2) Garden Grill
3) Le Cellier

Honorable mention - Liberty Tree Tavern
Second honorable mention - Sanaa
 
We'd probably go Chef Mickey's, Sanaa (during the day when they can see the animals), and Garden Grill. They also really liked Olivia's, especially dining outside.
 
1) Topolino's Breakfast
2) Primo Piatto any time (yeah, we're Riviera lovers, but it makes a great out of the park lunch break on a HS day if you're not staying there)
3) RoundUp Rodeo BBQ

They also loved Garden Grill breakfast on our recent trip, but I think RoundUp edged it out.
 
1. Topolino's breakfast
2. Hollywood & Vine lunch/dinner (not a fan of Vampirina & friends)
3. Crystal Palace.

My kids are in a buffet era right now, but they still love Topolino's
 
1. Chef Mickey's
2. Topolino's breakfast
3. Teppan Edo/'Ohana - if they still do the activities with the kids
 
Via nappoli
Topolinos terrace (breakfast)
Whispering canyon

Number 3 would be mama melrose but that’s closing soon 😕
 
If we are strictly talking kids menu choices … Summer House is amazing …

Otherwise , my kids always loved sci fi, OHANA , and beaches and cream !!
 
My kids loved every character meal we have been to, which is most of them. With the young ages of your kids, I would pick family style meals vs buffets to make it easier on yourself.

My kids are 7 and 10, we have been going yearly since 2018. Now, that they are a little older they really enjoy buffets so they can eat as much as possible of different things. DS loves Crystal Palace breakfast. Both kids have loved Whispering Canyon for years. They both love Sci-fi, but also loved Hollywood and Vine dinner recently.

Ohana, Garden Grill and Toppolino were great when they were smaller so we didn’t have to get up to the buffet.

We haven’t been to CRT with our 2 youngest. We did go with our DD20 when she was little. I wish we had while they were still little because now that DS is 10, no way am I paying adult price from him. If you ever plan on going to CRT, your kids are good ages to do it now.
 
My kids are 5 and 7 right now, but their favourites have consistently been Topolino's for brunch, Geyser Point, and Satuli. Honourable mentions also go to Hoop Dee Doo and Bar Riva
 
We just quit buffets because my oldest hit 10 and I'm not paying full adult prices for her. But before then...

1. Tusker House
2. Boma
3. Ohana dinner
We stick to just CP and H&V now and have stopped doing Chef Mickey's and Cape May. I'm hoping that this buffet era ends soon.
