POFQ is a great resort. I think it is perfect for a first trip, the bigger ones can be oppressive.
Our kids love MGM. It is our favorite park. I would highly recommend doing Magic Kingdom your first day, get it out of the way and then take your time with the others.
We love Liberty Tree Tavern for a sit down and my family loves the soup in a bowl at the counter service near here.
MGM we never miss a fun filled lunch or dinner at Prime Time. It is great and the kids enjoy seeing the parents get into trouble here. Good basic food too.
We like Planet Hollywood, our boys are teens now and love to see the movie props. Downtown Disney area is fun for a quiet evening of roaming around and shopping plus you have the boat back to the resort too.
Really, there is so much, it is set up so you can pick and choose what your family is most interested in. Look around the boards and purchase one good guidebook. Probably the Passporter. Read about the rides and restaurants. It will help. Choose those most interesting to you and get to the other stuff if you can.
Most of all, enjoy.
