Which was your FIRST Disney restaurant?

[Katiebell]

First Disney restaurant I can remember is Tahitian Terrace in DL -- my dad took me there a couple of times when I was 4 or 5.

My first WDW restaurant will probably be Tusker House for lunch (if we get to the park at a decent hour), and then Boma for dinner. Looking forward to it

Cinderell's Royal Table, character breakfast was our first. IT was simply the most magical time I really can remember. Being in the top of the castle that known round the world, served by the castle keeps, the best food I may have ever eaten.

We go back ever so often and it's just as good everytime. Even tho it's hard to walk after the experience.

That was ours too! My DH liked it so much he is insisting we go back this Sept. & pay oop!

Our first CS was on arrival day the food court at POFQ (we split 2 chicken parmesan and salad dinners with the kids we ate that a few times that week!)

Our first TS was LTT.

Wow, I cannot remember! From an early trip with my family, two highschool trips and then a few others with friends in college, I really have no clue. Probably just at CS places. I do not remember any actual restaurants. lol.

Now, when I went in the early 90s with my DH (then boyfriend), I remember eating at Pecos Bills for burgers. The only table service place I remember is Biergarten, so that must have been my first Disney TS place. My first character meal was at King Stefan's Banquet Hall (Cinderella's Castle - that's what it was called in the early 90s) from that same trip.

Our first CS was Casey's Corner in MK...Still a first-day family favorite...

Our first TS was Crystal Palace...haven't been back since..nice character interaction but the food was forgettable.

1900 Park Fare for me way back when the GF opened i think

 

[AuroraBorealis]

My first TS was Jiko (now we have dinner there on the first night of every trip!) and my first CS was Backlot Express at MGM.

I don't remember eating anywhere onsite when I was 8 but I must have!! Jump ahead to my next trip last Aug. and WCC was our first!!

Our first TS was Biergarten in 1994. We went to WDW completely unprepared and made the reservation just inside the EPCOT entrance. It was the only place we could get into and we really didn't like the food. We also ended up waiting quite a long time after our reservation time which really turned us off. Our experience was so bad that we didn't try a TS again until our 2003 trip.

Rainforest Cafe in DTD! DH flew in to suprise our kids who were upset he had to work and could not go with us. What great memories

 

[Mickey&Donald]

Our first TS meal was at The Plaza in the MK, on our honeymoon in 2003. I don't remember the CS meals very well!

My very first Disney dining experience is lost to the ages, though, since I've been a Disneyland girl since birth!

I remember going to a restaurant my very first trip to WDW back in 1982 or 1983 (I was about 9) and we stayed at the Poly. There was a character breakfast there at the Poly with Dopey, Pluto, Mickey, and Minnie (I believe)...Just can't remember the name of the restaurant. Sorry, my memory is kind of fuzzy.

My very FIRST TS meal at Disney would have been Goofy's Kitchen at Disneyland.

At WDW....we had ADR for Concourse Steakhouse...but because of flight delays we totally missed it (flight delayed 6 hours). We ended up getting to WDW so late that we ate at the food court at Pop for our very first WDW meal. In the morning we had ADR at Crystal Palace in MK...before park opening So that was our VERY first TS meal at WDW. Later that same day we had dinner at CRT which was awesome

Papeete Bay Verandah, Sept. 1975, What a great restaurant that was--along with the fine food ( I had "Pigs n' Prawns" as well as an appetizer of scallops in coconut and lime juice) they had a 3 piece combo and a hula dancer quietly entertaining. You really had the impression of being in a South Seas restaurant.

 

[maiyasgram]

Our first was a character breakfast in 1984. It was at Minnie Menuhene's (sp) in Papette Bay Verandah at The Poly.

 

[Booknut]

Our first TS meal was dinner at Kona Cafe last year. I loved it!

 

[Laura]

I have no idea. I was 6. I probably ate a hamburger and fries, though.

I know my first character meal was on the Empress Lily; I definitely remember doing that and we have pics of it.

It was when I was 9 years old, for my birthday at San Angel (1983, was it called that back then?) I vividly remeber a birthday candle in my flan. This summer is the first time we will be going back to San Angel.
