Which you you pick... Looking for a signature meal for after our 1st day at the Magic Kingdom..... or do you have another suggestion - we are on the dulx meal plan....

WE do have a 4 year old daughter joining us...

Honestly after a long day in the magic kingdom i think the last thing a four year old would want to do is sit through a three to four hour dinner...Narcoossees would be nice as you might be able to see the water pageant

3 to 4 hours... holy crap... i couldnt sit through that... LOL... Narcoosees is more a traditional dinner

2 1/2 hours for us.Children are as out of place at V&As as T-shirts.If your child is disruptive they reserve the right to ask the party to leave,no refund.
Not that I would wan't to pay $150 per person anywhere and have any distractions.

BTW Victoria and Alberts is not a choice on the deluxe plan.

But will your little one have some down time before dinner? I think it would be hard on a child that age to spend a day in a park and then sit through a meal at Narcoossee's that could last two hours or so.

Definitely no V&A for a child. For her sake and the sake of the other diners who are probably spending $400-500 with wine, tip, etc for a once in a lifetime meal and don't need to have the distraction of a child around.

Narcossee's is casually elegant, lots of kids and if you time it right, you child will be easily entertained by looking out the window at the water pagaent and the fireworks. Nice atmosphere for a family dinner and kids will have fun. Ours is older (*) but he loved narcosee's because of the shows he got to watch.

We've even at Victoria & Alberts several times and I've never seen a diner who was under 21 in there, much less 4 years old. I'm sure you would be much happier at Narcoosee's.

Have fun if you go that route.

You do know it's not included on the deluxe DDP though, right? Wasn't sure from your original post.

On my visit in January...there were two children in the dining room at the 6pm seating. One 6 year old boy from Britian who was so quiet and well behaved and you could see on his face that he was enjoying it. Then there was a 5 year old girl with her parents that just didn't have the mannerisms for V&A, but it did not ruin my meal. My meal in May 2006 was more annoyed with a drunk couple than it has been with children.

I was exposed to V&A at a young age (7/8 all the trips blur together) and I really enjoyed it. In fact, my parents hated how when we were planning random weekend trips I always wanted to go back there. Only you know the mannerisms on your child though and how they would react to this.

There is the Mickey Mouse Club at the GF where you can leave your child as you enjoy your meal!
