Family of 5 hitting DL for the first time! Let me know your favorite QS places to eat and why!

We have no food allergies and are open to any and all places!

Thanks!
 
In DTD for breakfast my favorite is La Brea Bakery as I love the croissant breakfast sandwich they have and second would be Tortilla Joe's Taquerilla as I like their breakfast burritos and bowls. In DL The Plaza Inn, love their fried Chicken.
 
DL

#1 for sure, Jolly Holiday Bakery (great sandwiches)
#2 Plaza Inn (buffeteria, I love getting their salads when I am fooded out on everything else - my kids love the fried chicken or pasta)

DCA

#1 Flo's V-8 Cafe (food is pretty good, atmosphere and location in CarsLand cannot be beat)
#2 Pacific Wharf Cafe (Sourdough made right there, bread bowls are awesome)

DTD

Do not do QS there very often. But White Water Snacks in GCH is pretty good.

:wizard:
 


Napolini in Downtown Disney is a really nice option for a seriously good pizza at a very reasonable price. Note that these are personal pies, but they're only around $7-8 each.
 
DL we usually do TS here but we did enjoy Red Rose Tavern

DCA Pacific Wharf Cafe for those bread bowls. Flo's is pretty good too.

DTD La Brea Bakery
 


I second the Little Red Wagon corn dogs, those are everything. And also the Jolly Holiday Bakery (nice to have something fresh not fried every now and then), and their pineapple upside cake is fantastic. We grab one on our way out of the parks every day we're there (but it's a summer thing, as we found out this past January).
 
Bengal BBQ and Rancho del Zocalo in DL. Flos and Pacific Wharf Bakery in DCA, also if they have the skewers, Garden Grill in Paradise Gardens.
 
After MM and a few hours of having fun in DL, we like to have a late breakfast, or early lunch at Carnation Cafe. Everything here is yummy! Waterwater Snacks in the GCH. Something for everyone and it is very relaxing whether you sit inside our outside. Fiddler Fifel and Practical, yes it is Starbucks, but, it is still nice to grab a sandwich or salad and relax. With Clarabelle's next door, while a couple of us are getting something from Starbucks, others are getting ice cream! Smokejumpers Grill has good onion rings. Tortilla Joes in DTD is another place the whole family insists on eat at every trip.
