I believe you’re referring to the Thanksgiving dinner that was held in the Grand Ballroom at the DLH. It hasn’t been held since 2019 and likely won’t return. It was our family tradition and the best holiday dining experience that either DL or WDW has offered IMO but the price kept swelling in its final years. By 2019, it was $180 (including tax and tip) per adult. We went to Goofy’s Kitchen, which was less than $50 (including tax and tip) instead. Last year, Goofy’s Kitchen hid risen to $107 (including tax and tip) per adult. Think of what the Grand Ballroom dinner would cost it it were available…
Goofy’s Kitchen and Storyteller’s will be the two venues featuring a Thanksgiving dinner buffet. Both will feature characters and both will cost the same (I’d expect to pay about $120 per adult). Food is similar at both — Goofy’s has the larger selection, including the world famous P&J pizza - with an emphasis on children’s food. Storyteller’s has a more mature selection but the spread is very limited. You can order things like chicken tenders and sliders to your table, however (no additional charge).
I wrote a review on Goofy’s Kitchen last year. The food was way too spicy for our liking, and it seemed like there was an emphasis on traditional Mexican foods like tacos and tamales even as some classic American Thanksgiving staples were missing/ lacking. No big deal, they’re pandering to the local crowd, but this year we’ll do Thanksgiving at nearby Orange County Mining Co.
