We're headed to WDW next week. Already made reservations for Breakfast on Friday morning @ O'Hana prior to a day at MK. We also have lunch reservations @ Hollywood & Vine on Saturday since we'll be at HS. Any suggestions on good spots to hit for walk-up table service or good quick-service meals? I have a 7, 3, & 2 year old and we want them to be entertained if we have to wait for food. They have the patience of.....well, a 7, 3, & 2 year old! LOL Thanks for any suggestions. Oh yeah, we'll have a party of 6 as well.

Let's see...the character & better TS restaurants are usually booked, but you could check w/ them for an opening.
*We were able to get our friends into Donald's Safari breakfast on our last trip during Thanksgiving week & it is usually a hard one to get into as a walk-up, so don't give up.

Some harder to get, but good TS restaurants to try w/ kids for are:
Chef Mickey's for breakfast or dinner
1900 Park Fare for breakfast or dinner
Princess Storybook
Garden Grill for dinner
CRT
Crystal Palace
Donald's Safari Breakfast
Hoop Dee Doo Revue dinner show
*Ohana for dinner is also good, but there are no characters.

Some TS restaurants that you & the kids may like that you may can get into as a walk-up would be:
Tony's Town Square at the MK
Liberty Tree Tavern at the MK
Teppan Edo at Epcot
Coral Reef at Epcot
Sci-Fi Dine-In Theatre at DHS
Cape May Cafe at the Beach Club (the breakfast has characters)
Whispering Canyon at Wilderness Lodge
Trail's End at Ft. Wilderness
Mickey's Backyard BBQ dinner show

Trail's End at Fort Wilderness is a really great place for lunch if you are at MK since it's just a boat ride away. And if you get there early or late you can usually be seated for lunch pretty quickly. Also, you should check Sana at Kadani Village at Animal Kingdom Lodge. It's a hidden gem, my favorite restaurant from my last trip, and if you can get there right at opening they do a cool drum ceremony. They also have seating at windows that face the savanna that the animals will practically walk up to. The food is African with Indian influences, but its not that out there. The spice is toned down for...well...Americans. And they proteins are familiar: short ribs, shrimp, steak, chicken. It is well worth the trip.

Wanted to thank y'all for the tips! We found the Roaring Fork at Wilderness Lodge to be a great place as well!

To Oxodizer, Sanaa was the most difficult ADR to get for my upcoming trip. I think this "Gem " has been discovered. I feel like hands down the easiest place to walk into without ADRs is Marrakesh. Great music and entertainment plus a great menu with something for everyone. A few other places, Captains Grill at Yacht Club is an easy boatride from the WS entrance of Epcot. Also from Epcot you could get to the Swan or Dolphin if you are not on the dining plan they offer great resturaunts. The Grand Floridian Cafe at the GF is a monorail ride from MK, so is Kona Cafe at the Poly both great resturaunts. Kouzzina on the Boardwalk is easy to get to from Epcot or HS. Raglan Road at DD is fabulous and has great entertainment in the evening. I'm not sure how easy T~ Rex would be to get into but your kids would love it (if their not afraid of dinosaurs). One more recommendation is The Wave in the Cont. Also an easy monorail ride from MK.The best advice for not having to wait to long is to go at " off" times. :)

The kids would also love the Rainforest Cafe at AK, it's on the outside of the park so you don't have to go in to AK to eat there. This is my son's favorite restuarant period! I love this salad they make there with asian sesame type dressing, it has shoestring potatoes on it, unusual but just a wonderful dish in my opinon!
