I highly suggest dinner one evening at the Polynesian Resort. They have a dinner show that is wonderful.

I would recommend breakfast at the Crystal Palace - their stuffed French Toast is a little slice of heaven! Plus if you can get an early morning reservation I have heard that you could get in before the park really opens and see Main Street empty! How cool would that be?!?!

Otherwise, for somethi

Definitely eat at the Castle in the Magic Kingdom, especially if you have daughters. My daughter is now 28, and she still likes going there.

So who had been to O'Hana in the Polynesian lately? I have not been in over a year, and heard that they changed the meal offerings there. Can anyone verify that?

Yes, you can get in before the parks actually open. On our last trip, we had an ADR for 8:05, so we could get into the park before it opened. You get to walk down Main Street, and it's almost completely deserted. We handed the cameras to a CM, and did the photopass thing as well, so we wound up with some really nice pics of "just us" and the castle.

You never get too old for the magic. Disney is a place where we can all be kids again.

Some of my recommendations are:
Cape May Cafe (in The Beach Club) - All you can eat Clam Bake every night!
Narcoossee's (at the Grand Floridian) - pricey, but very impressive food & a view of the fireworks at Magic Kingdom if you plan it just right
Yachtsman Steakhouse (in the Yacht Club)
Artist Point in Wilderness Lodge
Californian Grill (at the top of the Contemporary) - we try to arrive a bit before the MK fireworks for drinks outside while waiting for a table (even with priority seating). The food is fresh and fantastic.
Tusker House Restaurant in the Animal Kingdom is awesome. Fast food salmon?! You can't go wrong.
Also in Animal Kingdom, I like Donald's "Breakfastosauras" character breakfast. Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, and Pluto join Donald so the entire Fab 5 are available for photo ops (and the food is yummy).
For fun in Disney-MGM, the SciFi Dine In Restaurant and 50's Prime Time Cafe
Epcot is full of terrific restaurants, but one of our favorite things is snack time at the Rose & Crown Pub. We order a fruit and cheese tray and a couple cold adult beverages and relax our tired feet.
A Magic Kingdom favorite is Tony's!
