We can make our ADRs in less than 2 weeks for our Aug trip :cool1:
We'd really like to try some new places so I'll tell you where we are going and where we have been.
For Breakfast we are doing Ohana's and Cape May Cafe.(We've done tons of breakfasts in the past and this year we just want to stick to 2 b/c we want to get to the parks earlier).

For Dinner we are doing Teppan Edo (while other family members do Via Napoli), 1900 Park Fare, and San Angel Inn. In the past we have done Whispering Canyon Cafe, Le Cellier, Mama Melrose, Sci Fi (long long time ago), Coral Reef, Tony's, and I think thats it.
We will be traveling with 4 kids, one who has a peanut allergy so I am a little nervous about eating at certain places (Ohana's for dinner is one).

Suggestions would be awesome ;)
 
Places I return again and again
Cape May Cafe 9dinner)
Ohana's (dinner-but you are safe to skip it with a peanut allergy)
Kona Cafe (may have peanuts here too)
Chef Mickey's (especially with kids)
Boma
Saana
Jiko's
Rose and Crown
 
I highly recommend Tutto Italia, this was by far the best meal of our trip when we went in January.

Good call on San Angel Inn! We're trying Via Napoli for the first time in May... Teppan Edo was just okay to us--Benihana is far superior.

Here's my suggestions:

(1 TS)
Captain's Grille
Kona
Grand Floridian Cafe
Cape May Cafe

(2 TS)
Yachtsman
Citricos
Cali Grill
 

If you are going to the Animal Kingdom try the Yak & Yeti they have quite a variety and some real good desserts. I want to see next time if we can get in for just the dessert love this
Fried Wontons - Skewers of fresh pineapple and cream cheese wontons, vanilla ice cream, honey vanilla drizzle

My husband is also allergic to peanuts and we eat at 'Ohana every trip (usually twice a year). The staff at this restaurant are FANTASTIC as are all at WDW. We note his allergy on our reservation and mention it again when we check in. Before anything is served to our table a chef comes out to greet us and go over the menu. There are only one or two things he cannot eat including the peanut dipping sauce that is served as an accompaniment. We also stay away from the bread as it was made in a factory that contains peanuts. No problem at all since there is more than enough food we find the bread is unnecessary anyways!

Since I will not eat peanuts around him we just ask for anything containing peanuts to be kept away from our table and we never have any problems. The food here is delicious (our absolute favorite) so I highly recommend giving this restaurant a chance for dinner. You won't be disappointed!

Are you going to have your own car? If not, getting to BC for the Cape May breakfast can be a real pain to get to in the morning if you aren't staying at an EPCOT area resort or don't have your own car. If this is a must for your family, the easiest way there will be taxi.
 
I'd suggest trying Tusker House at Animal Kingdom, especially if you can get an ADR between 1pm-1:45pm. That gets you priority seating at the 3:15 Finding Nemo show (which is also excellent).

I also like Sunshine Seasons in Epcot as a CS restaurant with a lot of variety; I would worry about CS places with a more limited selection if you are trying to feed someone with a food allergy.

And, of course, I always recommend Sanaa, but that's only because it's good :)
