Another vote for dropping Rainforest. There are just so many better options for your meals. If you're looking for something else in DTD for that night that's fun, the family might enjoy the entertainment at Raglan Road. Alternately, if this is the AK location- while we had a bad first experience- I'd take a breakfast ADR at Tusker House any day over Rainforest
I'd also pick something other than Coral Reef. We're just not fans and there are always too many parents in there who let their kids run up to the tank. i.e. it destroys any atmosphere it was supposed to have. Garden Grill is a fun option if you want to stay in Epcot and stick with something with a strong hook for the kids. Alternately, you might try timing a Rose & Crown ADR with Illuminations or the kids might enjoy the entertainment at Biergarten.
If you're looking for 'Ohana- dinner is the better option IMO. We did breakfast once and the food was some of the worst we've had on property. Mind you, I know these things vary, but it's not often you send food back and get a replacement plate of equally bad food. Dinner can vary from average to great, but even average is better than our breakfast experience. And if it's a great night- well, it's an awesome experience.
You'll also hear a lot of mixed feelings on Sci Fi. If it were me and it's my first and only time at WDW I'd probably drop it...I'd pick 1 prepark opening breakfast in the Magic Kingdom. Seriously- the 8:05a slot at Crystal Palace is one of our very favorite things at WDW. We usually get into the park around 7:45am, get to walk down a fairly quiet MSUSA, get those pics in front of the castle without the crowds, and get to dine at what we consider one of the top character meals on property.
