We ate at Chef Mickeys our first night. Actually took a chance and went about an hour early for our 7PM PS because we had gotten in earlier than expected. They seated us pretty quickly. We felt the food was good for a buffet. My pickey daughters loved the kids selections(I must confess that I did too!
) My husband said the prime rib was suprisingly good. The dessert area is great with the cupcake decorating area and the sundae bar. As far as cleanliness, anytime you have a lot of people going through a buffet line it can get messy, but I felt they did a good job at keeping tabs on things and refilling food that got low. The character interaction was great. We had Mickey, Minnie, and Chip and Dale with Donald and Goofy in the waiting area. They were all good, but Goofy was especially fun.

Le Cellier was outstanding. Our best meal of the trip. Our server Veronique was great. The girls split the kids steak and I'm glad they did because their portions were huge. I am normally not a big meat eater but I got the filet and it was very tender and flavorful. My husband said his NY strip was one of the best he's ever had. We also split the cheese soup and both said we wished we would have gotten our own. When we told Veronique how much we enjoyed it she brought us a printed copy of the recipe.

Primetime Cafe was a hoot. Our sever Mark was very interactive, but not obnoxious. One of the other servers accidently bumped my husbands arm and he made her bring us some free cheese fries. I had the ham on marble rye and it was very tasty. My husband had the open faced steak sandwich and said it was good. Mark also talked us into getting the 100 years of Magic dessert which was very yummy. He scolded me for not knowing the sorcerers hat was edible.
Princess Storybook was also good. The food here was better than at CRT (with the exception of the french toast) The main draw here are the characters though. We had 5 princesses. Mulan, Aurora, Belle, Jasmine and Mary Poppins. They all took plenty of time at our table and interacted very nicely with the girls. Aurora and Mulan were highlights.
Mom of 5:
We really liked the Plaza for a quick inexpensive sit down meal. Due to a transportation snafu we were almost 1/2 hour late for our PS and they had no problem getting us in. Our server was nice and we got our food very quickly. I had the club sandwich w/ fries and my husband had the chicken sandwich w/fries. Both our entrees were very good. As a matter of fact, everything we saw being served looked good. Nice sized portions. I think the kids had the mini burgers or hot dogs. I can't remember which.

We had PS for everything except Whispering Canyon. Once we checked in we didn't wait longer than 10-15 minutes at dinner and were seated immediately for lunch and breakfasts.
Hope this answers everything
