Wolfgang pucks DTD wonderful food good portions
Staring Rolls in DHS HUge Huge sandwiches and oh so good best desserts also
Epcot Sunshine sesons
Magic Kingdowm Columbia Harbor House New shrimp only dinner is wonderful. Very good shrimp

These places give you so much food for your CS more like Dinner portions.

We always go to Pecos Bills Huge burgers too much meat really
Backlot express was a new one for us as well. Good southwest chicken salad
Animal Kingdom always Flame Tree but are going to try something else next time if there is a next time...

MK- Pecos Bill's, good fixings bar.

DAK- Flame Tree BBQ, great outside sitting along water.

DHS- Backlot Express, just like it.

Epcot- Skip over to Beach Club Resort to Beaches and Cream

Capt. Cooks at the Poly is good also.

I'll put in my votes, though I think most have already been mentioned:


Magic Kingdom:
-Columbia Harbor House (if the upstairs is open, sit up there for a relaxing meal away from the crowds)
-Cosmic Rays for the chicken and ribs
Favorite snack location is also found in the MK, a hand-made ice cream cookie sandwich from Sleepy Hollow in Liberty Square.

Epcot:
-Yakitori House in Japan. Nice out of the way place, limited seating but most people overlook it.
-I don't know why, but Electric Umbrella always seems to have the best chicken strips/nuggets on property...
-Sunshine Seasons in The Land has good selections.
Snacks, how can you go wrong with something from the bakery in France? And if I'm on the other side of World Showcase, egg rolls from China's counter service location always hit the spot while waiting for IllumiNations.

Studios:
-Only Counter Service I ever eat in is Backlot Express between Indy and Star Tours.
Starring Rolls has a good selection of snacks.

Animal Kingdom:
-Flame Tree
-Yak & Yeti
-Picnic in the Park in on my list to try, I hope it's running again on my next trip

Downtown Disney:
-Wolfgang Puck Express in either Marketplace or West Side, possibly the best value for your Counter Service credit anywhere in WDW. (My meal was about $19, but easily could have been $22-23)
-I've only eaten at Earl of Sandwich once, my roast beef sandwich was so-so, but people on here rave about it. It's on my list to give a second chance, but haven't had the opportunity.

Our fave CS is Cosmic Rays - huge portion of delicious chicken and ribs with "live" entertainment by Sonny Eclipse. if you're in the mood for a hot dog Casey's is great too.

Least fave - Pizza Planet at DHS.
 
Peco's Bill is great maybe minus the crowd.
Sunshine Seasons is great. Food tastes so fresh.
Flame Tree looks and smells delicious. Plan on doing it next trip

We have been to wdw several times now and always love Cosmic Ray's but we have never eaten at Pecos Bills or Columbia Harbor House, can anyone tell me where these 2 restaurants are located? I don't even remember seeing them anywhere in the MK. :shrug: Is there anything that is particularly good at either one?

Our family (of 5) favorites:

MK: Peco's Bill - great fixins bar:slurp:

Epcot: Electric Umbrella
DAK: Restaurantosaurus
DHS: Backlot Express

ALL 3 of the latter restaurants have SELF SERVE drink fountains...
that means you can refill your drink many times!! COOL esp. when you are
travelling in the HOT summer months like us !!
