Dining Help

Long time no see everyone. I need suggestions on where to dine.. We are going to Disney Oct 14-19th. Added Dining Plan to our AP's. I am having such a hard time deciding where to eat for dinners. Any help would be great! My DS is 4.

Re: Dining Help

I would start with by looking at the character meals and the park you plan to be in at the time.

Re: Dining Help

That is the problem I really wanted to try Chef Mickey's and it is booked. So sad. Might just do what we always do and just show up for an early dinner. We have done CP so much that I am tired of it.

Tony's is nice, too if you are to be in the MK.

Re: Dining Help

Well I just called and got Tutto so far and Coral Reef. Not sure where else to go. I wish LTT still had characters! What other Character meals are there?

Re: Dining Help

Try Ohanas they have a character breakfast. I would also call Disney Dinning and have the CM see what they can find for you. It's late to be making ADR's now.

Garden Grill is great, but ask for a booth. DS3 loved the character interaction a couple of weeks ago.

Re: Dining Help

Hey there!!

Garden Grill is a fav of my girls.
Ohana's for breakfast - Stitch, Lilo, Mickey & Pluto
Tuskar House Breakfast Donald and friends
Chef Mickey's keep trying . . . did you try online booking? It's good because it give you the alternate times it is available.
Cape May Cafe for breakfast is good too, Goofy Donald Minnie

Most dinner places did away with the characters? I'm only coming up with breakfast. What about TRex at DTD? Is he into Dinos? Cool place if you like Dinos!!

Re: Dining Help

If you are flexible and really looking for Chef Mickey's, keep the Disney Dining # handy or in your cell. Call throughout the day during your vacation - there are always openings that pop up. We've picked up some great ADR's on short notice.

You could invite Boss and me for Tutto. We've been called characters...and worst.

Re: Dining Help

Not a fan of Chef Mickey's here. I like all of Mickeygirlz' suggestions and might add Hollywood and Vine at DHS they have the Playhouse Disney characters for breakfast (I think).

Tusker House for breakfast is gone in that time frame.
So is Chef Mickey's.

Personally, I think Coral Reef isn't worth it anymore when you consider how unremarkable their menu has become in recent years.
For dinner, check availability for Kona Cafe, Wolfgang Puck Cafe (for after parks close. And they do close early in mid October!)
Early dinner at Yak and Yeti.
If you want sushi or tempura, there's always Tokyo Dining.

Re: Dining Help

Try 1900 Park Fare. Several good characters there, and really good food too.
