I'm going to Disney World the first week of June. I've been there a few times. I want to try new places out. What are your suggestions of restaurants I should try? It could be Fancy or Quick Serve. If you have an suggestions I'd love to know. I'm looking for any of the main parks or downtown disney places. I know I will be dining at Planet Hollywood, Rainforest Cafe, and Mama Melrose's.|||These are some of my favorite restaurants, some of them are quick service and some are sit down:

Try http://allears.net/din/dining.htm for menu's they tell you what they serve so you can look before you book.|||First things first, get your dining reservations as early as possible. It's unlikely that you'll be able to get a table at most table service restaurants if you just walk up.

As for recommendations, here are mine :)

TABLE SERVICE
Epcot: Le Cellier (Canada), San Angel Inn (Mexico), Rose & Crown (UK)
Hollywood Studios: Brown Derby, 50s Prime Time Cafe, Sci-Fi Dine In
Animal Kingdom: Tusker House, Yak & Yeti
Magic Kingdom: Crystal Palace (the buffet previously mentioned "near" the Castle), Liberty Tree Tavern, Cinderella's Royal Table
Resorts: Artist Point (Wilderness Lodge), Boma (Animal Kingdom Lodge), Cape May Cafe (Yacht & Beach Club), Narcoossee's (Grand Floridian), Chef Mickey's (Contemporary)

QUICK SERVICE
Epcot: Sunshine Seasons
Hollywood Studios: The group of QS locations near Tower of Terror. It's set up like a farmer's market.
Animal Kingdom: Pizzafari
Magic Kingdom: Pecos Bill, Cosmic Ray's, Columbia Harbor House (my favorite)|||I prefer fun restaurants as opposed to hoity-toity ambiance. These are my favorites in no particular order...

50's Prime Time Cafe - super fun "Role Playing" restaurant. Like eating dinner at Leave it to Beaver's house!!

Sci-Fi Drive In - fun drive in movie theme. The restaurant is "outside" (inside decorated to look like outside), the tables are cars and they loop old science fiction movie clips

Coral Reef - This is a seafood restaurant - and I don't actually like seafood - we went there for the first time last trip and this might be my very favorite restaurant. We ate at an odd time, so the place was nearly empty and we could ramble up and down looking at everything and the chicken was dee-lish.

Tusker House (AK park)/Boma (AK Hotel) - Interesting and eclectic food offerings. Fun to explore the different tastes.

Whispering Canyon Cafe - We go every time. Whoop & Hollar kind of a place with family style stick-to-your-ribs food. Don't forget to ask for the ketchup!!

1900 Park Place - Evening - Character Dinner (Buffet) - with Cinderella, Prince Charming, the evil step-sisters and the wicked step-mother. Everybody acts out and you're encouraged to join. (Although it appears to me that the step-sisters are only evil to each other!!)

World showcase - pick your favorite ethnic food and eat it!!

Hoop-dee-doo Musical Revue - Vaudville type dinner show. Corny, but fun. (Takes two table service credits)

Crystal Pavilion - Breakfast Buffet - Good food, Winnie the Pooh characters and a jump start on the park.

Happy eating!|||We've been to WDW 13 times. Last year we celebrated my birthday at Ohana's at the Polynesian Resort. We could see & hear the Wishes fireworks & see the electric light parade on the water (check schedule for these events). It was a fantastic experience! We love the buffet at Boma's at the Animal Kingdom Lodge-both breakfast & dinner are great. The Whispering Canyon Cafe is lots of fun at the Wilderness Lodge. They have fabulous ribs. The Coral Reef at Epcot is a nice experience, where you can watch the fish while you dine. The Crystal Palace in the Magic Kingdom is lovely for any meal. For fast food in the Magic Kingdom we enjoy: The Columbia Harbour House, Cosmic Ray's Starlight Cafe, & El Pirata y el Perico Restaurant (only open for limited time at lunch). In Epcot there is: The Lotus Blossum Cafe (China), & La Cantina De San Angel. In Disney's Hollywood Studio: The Pizza Planet is fun. In the Animal Kingdom: Restaurantosaurus. Have Fun!|||CHEF MICKEYS...YUM YUM YUM

THESE ARE SOME OF THE PLACES I HAVE EATEN AT...THERE ALL REALLY GOOD!!!:):)|||-Cinderella's Royal Table
-Coral Reef Restaurant (great views of the Seas and great food)
-Electric Umbrella Restaurant (great for just a healthy, grab and go lunch)
-Teppan Edo (Benihana style teppanyaki at Epcot)
-Sci fi Dine in Theater (the food is so-so, you eat here for the retro sci fi previews! and you get to sit in a "car" for a table)
-Flame Tree Barbecue (mm bbq is just what you need at animal kingdom)
-Any place at the Animal Kingdom Lodge (the african inspired food is delicious)
-California Grill (great at night when you want a premiere view of the fireworks show over the Magic Kingdom)
-Chef Mickey's (WDW's version of Goofy's Kitchen. Great breakfast place if you have children!)
-T-Rex, A Prehistoric Family Adventure (I haven't eaten here, but it looks amazing!)|||Our families favorite is 'Ohana in the Polynesian Resort. At 'Ohana they serve meat. Steak, Turkey, Shrimp and Pork are brought around to guests on big skewers and piled on your plate. (My wife tells me the green stuff is really good too.) If you are a meat lover, this is the place for you.

Every 30 minutes or so, kids are invited to come to the aisles and play games. The games are island games like roll a coconut with a broom or hula hoop. The kids love it, and parents love watching it.

Finally they serve you the best dessert you'll ever taste. Save some room.|||Magic Kingdom-Crystal Palace(make a reservation its a character buffet)
Epcot-The Garden Grill (reservation really nice rotating restaurants a la carte)or Le Chefs de France(can make a reservation)
Hollywood Studios-Mama Melrose's Ristorante Italiano
Animal Kingdom-Pizzafari,Rain forest Cafe or Restaurants
Downtown Disney-Bongos(Cuban cuisine owned by Gloria Estefan only has locations in Disney and Miami)|||there is a buffet in disney world's magic kingdom right by the castle that is really good. forget the name of the asian/japan food place in epcot but thats good, there is a buffet in the wilderness lodge area by the tent and motorhomes that is really good.|||Magic Kingdom: Pecos Bill's, Tony's, Main Street Bakery (for breakfast)

Epcot: San Angel Inn (Mexico pavilion), Rose & Crown (England Pavilion)

MGM: Prime Time Cafe, Sci-Fi Diner, Starring Rolls (for breakfast)|||A good one that I ate at was Chef Mickey's. Its a buffet which is nice, and a few of the characters are there.|||Try the country dinners in Epcot. Love the German beer garden|||zig zags|||Tusker House Restaurant (Counter Service) - Located in the back left corner of the Animal Kingdom, Tusker House is nicely themed and there is always plenty of seating available. At breakfast, you can get a pretty big plate of hot breakfast items for about $5, or the pastries are fabulous. I recommend the cinnamon rolls. Later in the day, some pretty high quality “fast food” is served, including delicious rotisserie chicken and several sandwiches. Tusker house is a great place to get out of the heat and get some good food quickly.

50's Prime Time Cafe (Casual Sit-Down) - Located in Disney's MGM Studios, The Prime Time Cafe is not so much a restaurant as an experience. The 50’s theme is evident in the décor, where guests sit in a kitchen and are served by their waiter Dad or waitress Mom. Be warned, your server will not be hesitant to scold you about elbows on the table or failing to finish your vegetables! The menu is classic comfort food such as fried chicken and pot roast. Chicken Pot Pie is my recommendation. The café is a little pricey, but worth experiencing at least once. Dinner is significantly more expensive, so to me this is more of a lunch place.

Boulangerie Patisserie (Counter Service) - This busy little bakery is located in the France section of Epcot’s World Showcase. The pastries are to die for, and make a perfect treat to eat while waiting for the nightly firework show to start. Selections include Chocolate Mousse, Croissants, and my favorite Palmiers. Mickey Mouse Cookies are popular with younger visitors, but I think the pastries are much better. All of the treats are under $5.00. The line can seem overwhelming at this bakery, but it moves fast as there are two sides of the bakery serving. Cute café tables are available outside the bakery. Just remember, calories don’t count when you are on vacation!

California Grill (Sit Down, Buisness Casual) - Located at the the Contemporary, this restaurant offers the best views of any Disney eatery. The food is fabulous and diners are entitled to use the restaurant's private verandah for fireworks that evening regardless of their reservation time. We were impressed with the wine list, and don't miss the delicious Goat Cheese Ravioli appetizer or the Rasberries, Chocolate, and Raspberries dessert.

San Angel Inn (Sit-Down) - Located in Epcot, this is my pick for the most romantic place to dine in any of the theme parks. Diners get to enjoy the ambience of the Mexico pavilion, complete with a starry sky and view of the boat ride and temple scene. The service here is fabulous, and the restaurant seems quieter than many others in the park. I love the Mole Pablano, which is chicken breast in a chocolate sauce. Just goes to show chocolate makes anything great! Be sure to try the yummy (and very large) margaritas, one is enough for me generally. Although the atmosphere is more formal than some other restaurants, theme park attire is always acceptable within the parks.

Spoodles (Casual- Sit Down) Located at the Boardwalk Resort, I love this restaurant partly because of its location on the Boardwalk. If you have a wait to be seated, you can walk along the pier and enjoy the festive atmosphere. Spoodles is open for all three meals, but feels most like a dinner place to me. The atmosphere inside is bright and cheerful, with wooden tables and mismatched fiesta ware dishes. The original concept for this Mediterranean restaurant was that it would offer only Tapas, small portions of food to be shared. The menu has broadened a bit to include regular entrees as well, but I often order from the Tapas portion. The Flatbreads are delicious, and every meal comes with crusty bread and hummus. The Pork Chop on mashed potatoes is very nice as well, with a unique sauce and spices. I enjoy dining here because it has a bright, festive atmosphere and I think it would be a great place to go with a large group.

Main Street Bake Shop (Counter Service) - Located at Magic Kingdom, there is something very special about stopping for breakfast on Main Street. The baked goods all seem so fresh and homemade, although I am a bit distressed that Krispy Kreme has infiltrated the bakery. I like the Apple Danish and Chocolate Chip Muffins. The shop is not very crowded when the park opens, but it can get busy around 10 when people start to take a break. Stopping here for breakfast isn’t necessarily a great idea if you are on a tight schedule, but if you have a little extra time to relax its fun to sit here and watch the crowds go by in the morning. If you’d rather stop in the afternoon or evening for a sweet treat, try a Chocolate Chip Cookie or Bearclaw.

Kona Cafe (Casual Sit-Down) - This is in the Polynesian Resort. We were surprised at the high quality of food and nice atmosphere available at this little restaurant. The food has Polynesian influences, but not too adventurous for picky eaters. The Barbecued Pork Sandwich and Mahi-Mahi sandwich are particularly good. I

  2. Many online wine stores are also certified by the French government as being ecologically responsible. In addition to purchasing wine online, you can also find a variety of other wine accessories, including wine glasses, cork openers, wine stoppers, and corkscrews made of natural stone and wood.
