I thought your first post might have been sarcasm, but now I see that you are indeed choosing this very weird hill to die on. CRT is not a formal, adult leaning restaurant. The CRT page on the WDW website literally says that it encourages young diners to dress up:$84/adult pre-fixe menu is not exactly a children's restaurant. The staffing and interiors are above the norm. It is designed to be more formal than your average restaurant at MK. Children can of course go, but it's a fancier meal for them to meet princesses.
The last time we ate at CRT we had gone home first, changed into nighttime dinner attire and returned to MK.
I work in Manhattan so none of the dining options on property are really that amazing, but we and many others elevate certain restaurants. Makes for a better date night with the wife.
Tell that to all of the guests who get engaged at CRT (not me, but I have seen it many times). It has a special ambiance, maturity and elegance that is above most of the other dining options in the park.
Hasn't happened yet for dinner. Maybe breakfast/lunch.
The parks were made for adults too. There are certain areas designed to be more mature than others.
Those are certainly great examples of more formal dining options. I would add Jaleo at Disney Springs to that.
Cinderella makes your acquaintance in the majestic Grand Hall before you ascend a spiral staircase to the banquet room above. (A gilded elevator is also available to transport you to the festivities.)
Then, dine in a storybook setting surrounded by soaring stone archways, majestic medieval flags and spectacular stained-glass windows overlooking Fantasyland. During your time inside the castle, enjoy a visit with Disney Princesses.
Tiaras and glittering gowns are optional, although young Guests are encouraged to dress up for the occasion.
Character appearances are subject to change
So that's kids in costumes, not adults in formal suits and fancy dresses. Lord.
