What Table Service restaurants you remembered going to on your first trip to WDW?

I still have in a box somewhere this same paper (I found this online, but mine has my name on it ), which was always autographed by all the characters shown there, from Minnie's Menehune Breakfast. We called it Minnie's Aloha Breakfast because Menehune was too hard to say! But it was where Ohana is now. All the main characters attended and it was amazing.

I have a vague hazy memory, I was probably 3, of my younger brothers and Pluto getting right up to their faces. Then they both LOST it screaming bloody murder. They were scared by his whiskers that they must have thought were spikes!
Oh if only character breakfasts were like this still...

I was 7 during my first trip and I remember eating a character breakfast at Ohana with hawaiian Mickey & Minnie. I also remember eating at Tony's and our waiting tell me that Lady and the Tramp were eating out back behind the restaurant because dogs weren't allowed inside a restaurant. I think they were the only ones we went to.

1971- can't remember!
EPCOT 1983 : We went up to a tv sorta thing, and talked to the CM to make a ressie. It was THE coolest thing back then! We chose Italian!
2007: We all really enjoyed CP dinner w/ pooh and friends ( boys were 3 and Mom- Mom & Pop-Pop were w/ us at Christmas!). TH breakfast was also memorable that year! Goofy was just so tall! ( Hadn't seen him in 24 years!) My boys enjoyed Hollywood & Vine w/ JoJo and Goliath!
2009: Chef Mickey's dinner. I was upset because I thought I'd lost my card. I took the monorail back to resort and returned when the family was already seated. I was upset, but of course the card was in the room. But, Goofy knew I was upset, and he gave me a big hug! Plus, the CM made sure that I saw all of the characters! It was so nice!
2010: Trip w/ just my Mom & boys ( I drove 14 hours myself!). Each and every restaurant we went to that time ( it was Mom's 70th birthday too!) treated my Mom like a queen ( princess).
2011: Birthday dinner for my boys @ HoopDeeDoo!
2012: 'Ohana 15th anniversary dinner!

Memory is a bit foggy these days but I seem to have some earlier memories of Crystal Palace and Garden Grill!

I remember Liberty Tree Tavern and eating there with the characters! That was my first night of Disney World in my life. I loved hearing my name from the colony of NJ. Also, Sci-fi and being AMAZED at the theme. I was truly transported. I never knew the magic of Disney, and that first trip hooked me for life. I didn't realize even the restaurants at Disney are truly magical.

The last TS I remember of my first trip was O'Hana, took the monorail over and finished dinner just in time for wishes! I had some dessert that came in a bucket with a shovel, I can't remember what it was. And they gave us pretty flower lei's, which i wore back to MK to watch the fireworks. Ahhh, sweet memories

My first trip was in 1993. We stayed off property,so we ate mostly at restaurants off property.But we did eat a couple times at Disney.We ate at Pinocchios Village Haus, and for my first table service meal we ate 50s Prime Time Cafe. I still remember getting yelled at for not eating my veggies.I make it a point to eat at Pinocchios each trip because that was the first restaurant I ever ate at WDW. I haven't been to 50s Prime Time since that first trip,and have no desire to return beacuse I still dont eat all my veggies.
