Table Service, Signatures, and kids

[82Bruhaha]

So, as the title says... I'm loosely planning meals for our November trip. At that time, it will be myself, hubby, 6 and 4 year old daughters, and a 4 month old.

Ideally, we're looking at doing a breakfast character meal, snacking or splitting some QS meals for lunch, and then a TS dinner.

Our last trip we didn't do any TS and Signature would never have happened, but we're looking to splurge. My concern is the kids. I know people will side-eye kids in a nicer sit down. And the menu isn't always accommodating.

Are there any TS or Signatures that are maybe more relaxed and family friendly? Prefer not a character or buffet type for dinner since we are doing them for breakfast. Also not interested in the dinner show type meals.

Signature - I would look at California Grill (especially if fireworks are back) or JIKO (not currently open) for a non-character non-buffet signature meal. Another favorite is Flying Fish Cafe (also not currently open).

Table Service - Our non-buffet favorites are Grand Floridian Cafe, The Wave, Raglan Road, and Chef Art Smith's Homecomin'

I don't think that anyone is talking about kids being a bit antsy. We are talking about how you see kids running around, standing on the chairs, screaming, throwing food, etc. I have worked in food for decades and this has become common in the last several years when we would NEVER see that kind of behavior before then. There truly has been a lack of good parenting lately when it comes to social manners.

... a-MEN sistah gurl-fren!

Yeah. I'm allergic to kids.....

....do you have trouble breathing, or do you break out in hives? Of course, you obviously must always carry an epi-pen....[J/K]

....what a shame that there even HAS to be a sign like this....

Hives. Boils. Warts. Only curable with high doses of carbs.

In my older years I have become less tolerant. I avoid places & times that there may be kids present. No kidding, once a server put a high chair next to me at a bar and I couldn't believe it. Couldn't get out of there fast enough.

....I hope that the intended person whose butt was going into that high chair wasn't driving.

Right? I wondered about that!

Biergarten is fun for kids when they have the oompah band, even more if they allow dancing again. Rose and Crown also has a piano entertainer. 50s prime time is fun. Tony's can be quite nice if you get a seat outside in beautiful weather.
