I'm going to have to try this sometime, I keep hearing great things about it. I don't know that I've even seen it during our last few trips so I never think about it.

Re: Best Counter Service Dinner ?

Best atmosphere award to a Counter Service goes to Yakitori House at Japan in Epcot. There is no prettier setting for a counter service except maybe the tables at Flame Tree in AK that line the water and give a great view of EE.

The food at Yakitori House is good too.

Re: Best Counter Service Dinner ?

Is Pecos Bill's as good as the Unoffical Guide says?

If you're looking for standard fast food fare (hot dogs, burgers, chicken fingers) Pecos Bill's is about as good as it gets at MK. The "Fixin' Bar" is good too, and you can't beat the location.

It's not bad... I found it perfectly fine, not outstanding, straightforward burgers.

When I had the salad, the portion was so generous that I never came anywhere near the bottom of the bowl.

I didn't care for the dessert option there.

You should give it a try - since it's been refurbished the food is really excellent - definitely a step above "fast food". I had a grilled salmon plate with garlic mashed potatoes - it was as good, if not better, than many sit-down restaurants.
