Magic Kingdom - Plaza
Epcot - Via Napoli
DHS - 50's Prime Time or Sci Fi
Animal Kingdom - Rainforest Cafe
Resort - 'Ohana
Disney Springs - T-Rex
 
MK - The Plaza
EP - Garden Grill
AK - Tusker House but I really love Satuli'i and Pizzafari too.
HS - literally none.
DS - T-Rex Cafe
Resort - Boma or Sanaa
 
I think we always gravitate to what we know. I would love to hear what your favorite Restaurant is in each of the 4 Disney World Parks, Disney Springs and the top Resort Restaurant?

Here is ours:
MK- Cinderella's Castle (although the 14 year old boy child just tolerates it)
EP - La Cellier
AK - Tiffins
HS - Mama Melrose
DS - ??? (used to be Boathouse, but the last 2 experiences was not positive)
Resort - Contemporary, California Grill



Mine is:

MK - Skipper Canteen
EP - Rose & Crown
AK - Tusker House
HS - The Hollywood Brown Derby
DS - The House of Blues or Homecomin'
Resort - 'Ohana (Poly) / Jiko (AKL)
 
MK- Be Our Guest
EP- Le Cellier
AK- Tusker House
HS- ? Pretzel stands?
DS- Morimoto Asia
Resort- Trader Sam's (this counts right?)
 


We do most of our meals at resorts but here goes

Resort-Poly we love Ohana
HS 50's Primetime for family for me Sci-Fi
Epcot Le Cellier it used to be Rose & Crown but after a disastrous meal last trip the girls have banned it.
AK Close fight between Tusker and Yak&Yeti
MK Strange that MK would be the weakest place to find a place to eat but among what they have Liberty Tree Taverb
 
HS - Sci-Fi
EPCOT - Coral Reef (we've only eaten at a few at EPCOT but several are on my list for next time)
AK - Satu'li
MK - Harbor House
DS - Raglan Road
Resort - Cape May Cafe (Breakfast)

*Note - my family doesn't care that much about food and we typically eat QS meals. On our last week long trip we only at 4 TS meals.
 
MK- CP I guess, but we rarely eat TS inside the park. We go to one of the Monorail resorts. Cosmic Ray’s for QS
EP - TS - Teppan Edo, QS -Sunshine Seasons
HS- Can’t say. Haven’t been to this park in years.
AK - Flame Tree. Have never eaten TS here
DS- TS - The Boathouse (though we too weren’t as impressed last time we went. We’re actually skipping it this summer), QS - Wolfgang Puck’s Express
Resort - either ‘Ohana or Cape May
 


MK-Crystal Palace
DS- The Hollywood Brown Derby
Epcot-Chefs de France
AK we only do CS
 
MK - The Plaza/Columbia Harbour House
EP - Teppan Edo/Tangeirine Cafe
AK - Yak n Yeti/Satu'li Canteen
HS - Mama Melrose
DS - Homecomin'/Earl of Sandwich
Resort - Shula's Steakhouse
 
MK-Be Our Guest (lunch)
Epcot- Garden Grill
HS- Sci Fi Dine in
AK- Yak & Yeti
Resort- Cape May CAfe (dinner)
DS- Homecomin’
 
Based upon where my kids/wife like to go when I ask for requests...

MK - LTT
Epcot - Spice Road Table (or Beirgarden)
AK - Tusker house breakfast
HS - Prime Time Cafe (for the Malts)
Resorts - Beaches and Cream for lunch or California Grill for dinner
DS - Have not tried enough different places to determine a favorite
 
MK - Used to be Pecos Bills before they changed the menu. Now I’d say BOG if we even eat in the park. Normally we head out for a resort lunch and break before heading back for the night.

EPCOT - Rose & Crown or Via Napoli

HS - Mama Melroses. Always eat here and never disappointed.

AK - Flame Tree Barbecue and Nomad Lounge

DS - The Boathouse and Earl of Sandwich.

Resor - California Grill or Boma.

Oh no - what did they do to Pecos Bill? We used to love it there!
 
Magic Kingdom: Skipper Canteen
Epcot: This is a tough one but probably Chefs de France (with Le Cellier as a very close second)
Hollywood Studios: Sci-Fi Dine-In
Animal Kingdom: Tiffins
Resorts: Jiko
Disney Springs: My upcoming trip will include my first visit ever to Disney Springs
 
MK - Liberty Tree Tavern
EP - Garden Grill
HS - 50s Prime Time
AK - Tusker House
DS - Raglan Road and Earl of Sandwich
Resort - Trattoria al Forno (breakfast) and Boma
 
Our last trip was in 2017. We're trying some new places this year so this list might change.

MK - Skipper Canteen
AK - Tiffins (but with the menu changes since 2017 we are skipping it this year)
EP - Garden Grill (Primarily because we've had really great character experiences here. Obviously the family style AYCTE meal isn't going to win any culinary awards but it's solid enough.)
DHS - Hollywood Brown Derby
DS - Boathouse
Resort - 1900 Park Fare (Again, the buffet breakfast is standard, but the character experiences here, esp. the Mad Hatter, are outstanding. That's an important factor in picking WDW dining favorites for me. I can get much better food almost anywhere in NYC so dining experiences don't solely come down to food).
 
For mine I will give both TS and QS:

MK - TS: The Plaza. QS: Pecos Bill
EP - TS: Monsieur Paul. QS: Yorkshire County Fish Shop
AK - TS: Tusker House. QS: Flametree (if forced to pick a QS at AK)
HS - TS: 50's PT. QS: Backlot Express
DS - TS: Art Smiths Homecomin. QS: The Polite Pig.
Resort - By far the hardest to choose as this is where I do most of my dining. TS: Dolphin - Shula's. QS: Contemporary - Contempo Cafe
 
Resort: Sanaa (Jiko also wonderful)--used to be Artist Point until they ruined it
DS: Too many from which to choose. . .but. . .Morimoto at dinner just for the buri bop. Definitely not Homecoming
DHS: Brown Derby (not a lot of choices)
AK: Tiffin's
Epcot: Tutto Gusto
MK: Skipper's Canteen
 
MK - We've never done TS here. I'd rather go the The Wave or Geyser Point/Territory Lounge. I do love the tuna sandwich at CHH and kids, the nutella waffle at Sleepy Hollow.
I can also recommend the brunch at Cali Grill. Go hungry.
AK - Satuli Canteen, Y&Y TS, Nomad Lounge
Kidani - Sanaa
Epcot - VN for my prosciutto & melon pizza, Yorkshire Co. Fish Shop and eating by the water. I want to try Tutto Gusto
Epcot resorts - Blue Zoo
DHS - HBD lounge is my favorite, there, but we've had good experiences at 50s and Sci-Fi. I like how quiet and calm Sci-Fi is but they always run way behind on ADRs.
DS - Raglan Rd. Another vote for Jock's Hanger Bar. Morimoto is on my list because we loved the Street Food qs. We enjoyed The Boathouse so sorry to hear that your last visits haven't been great.
 
MK - The Plaza
EP - Via Napoli
AK - No favorites yet but have a feeling it would be Nomad/Tiffins
HS - Sci Fi wins by default, haven't been to Baseline Tap yet though
DS - Boathouse is always first night shabang, Raglan later in the trip. Both are must do's...Like Blaze and Polite Pig for lunch.
Resort - Yachtsman Steakhouse for the NY strip and Truffles Mac and Cheese.
 
MK - Not sure why, but I rarely eat TS here... I like Columbia Harbor House for lunch and Sleepy Hallow for breakfast
AK - Yak and Yeti
HS - Brown Derby
EPCOT - Spice Road
Resort - Flying Fish
