I'd do it again in a heartbeat. We went for the first time in late August. (We've done all the others, plus Chef Mickey's.)
I was little worried as I had read some mixed reviews.
As far as money is concerned it is the most princesses for the buck.
Beware, when we were there for dinner, it was really a quick parade of princesses. They come--once for us--to the table for a hi, picture, and good bye. But our girls are 7, 9, 16 and didn't mind the brevity. (Maybe they spend more time with the little ones, but I didn't notice.) It is worth the $ for the autographs; I simply refuse to waste time standing in line for the meet and greets anymore.
The food was surprisingly good. Different, but not too weird.
My kids are very picky and found plenty to eat. Maybe because they are older now, they actually ate something! Most years they have been so excited at the character meals that they never ate a thing.
If you don't like your entree, you can go up to the cold bar which had lots of traditional foods plus bread, salads, great cheese, lunchmeat etc.
I would recommend the traditional dish, somthing that starts like "kjotter..." my fussiest eater was practically licking the plate. It's meatball like with a sweet, bbq sauce and very good mashed potatoes.
The teen-ager thought our waiter, Per Christian, was a hottie. Guess, that was just a bonus. He was a cutie with blonde hair and blue eyes, but I liked that he kept the drinks coming.
