If you want to be safe, I'd suggest going a little earlier than 5 or later than 7. It's not a restaurant that has a ton of attention, but like everything else that dinner rush-hour can cause a wait.

Yeah, we regret not saying anything. I tend to let things slide, but that was one time I definitely should've stepped up and said something. I dropped the ball there.

Seven days is a fairly decent chunk of time. It all depends on how important dining is to your idea of vacation. To me you really aren't at that point of biting off too much yet. (We tend to plan 1 sit-down meal a day.) Here's my opinion on your list: San Angel Inn ---> The setting is unique...

Macaroni and Cheese and Truffle Oil Hot Dog /// Barbecued Pork and Coleslaw Hot Dog Menu - http://allears.net/dining/location/fairfax-fare Picture - http://jp6.r0tt.com/l_53a666c0-d6b4-11e1-871e-214b43400006.jpg We live in Chicago, so we have fairly particular expectations from our hot dogs...

We gave GFC a shot for the first time this past November. It was awful, both the food and the service. Keep in mind, I only have the one experience to go off of. I'd usually give a place a second chance, but since there's so many other options that we still haven't tried or re-tried... we won't...

You really can't do much wrong eating in Epcot. It comes down to the expectations/requirements of your group and what type of setting you prefer. For a good, well-rounded choice: Rose & Crown is under-rated. I love comfort food, and we've had great service the few times we've been there.

It looks great. If you're looking for constructing criticism: the only 2 I don't particularly love are Tony's and T-Rex. Full disclosure: I haven't tried either of them, but I've heard enough negative reflections to always find something else instead. If you're trying to stay around MK, I'd...

We're trying it for the first time ever... this Thanksgiving! I'm torn: I'm sure they'll do something Thanksgiving-oriented, but I just want to try all their normal-awesome stuff too...

Out of the listed options we've only tried: Brown Derby: We liked it, but truth be told there wasn't anything that really blew us away. The theme isn't as outlandish, but it's still well done. Restaurants in the parks sometimes don't feel as 'fancy' as you sometimes wish they would, but this one...

There are kiosks both in the parks and at the resorts. It is also web-based and accessible via any other internet-connected device (i.e. computer/tablet).

Just because I know you're on the DDP: Boma is a buffet, and it's a bit bright/busy for it to be romantic. But, the food is great and it'd be a good option if you're looking for a more fancy meal for the adults, but with kid-friendly feel too. Plus, you get the added perk of being able to...

We like to spend one night watching the whole show. But, my favorite is spot is the other nights where we're on Splash or Big Thunder during it.

Illuminations: Reflections of Earth. It's the easy winner for me, though I do appreciate the others. Plus, I absolutely love the holiday tag added to Illuminations... nothing can really touch that for me.

I liked CSR, and I think the extra size/space of the resort can be a positive. It was nice being so far removed from the main building. The walk to the pool/lobby really aren't all that bad, and the extra quiet is really appreciated. Remember, the long walk really isn't that long AND it happens...

My wife is the one that usually sets the wake-up calls. However, now that I know Mike does some calling, I'll have to surprise her by setting it all up on my own. Mike's her favorite, so it'd be a tiny little surprise for her.
