Hi!
We have been to Disney many times, but only our second trip with our daughter. ( She will be 2 trip time- Sept 2016) We are on the quick service dining plan so will be doing mostly quick service but want to do a sit down in the World Showcase, I have done Via Napoli, love it but want to try something different... suggestions ?

Thanks!

The only table service meal in WS I've done is Rose & Crown. Loved it, however. Got sat out on the patio with a lovely view of the rest of WS, and the food was good too.

Obviously it depends on your taste and palate considering the different cuisines from around the world. So from what I've experienced...
San Angel Inn - amazing atmosphere (#1 in my book) but about average for Mexican food. You can see a volcano in the distance, and maybe even the Gran Fiesta Tour boats coming and going.
Akershus - food was not to our liking, but it's a princess character buffet and if you're daughter is into that, she won't even be paying attention to the food!
Biergarten - lively and fun dinnertime show with buffet, one of our favorites of the WS for the atmosphere. You will likely be sharing a table with other parties though.
Teppan Edo - Japanese hibachi at shared tables, not much different than local hibachi restaurants here. So I'd skip in favor for...
Tokyo Dining - more authentic choices, quieter atmosphere because it's less popular and people don't seem to know it's there. Awesome views of the WS.
Marrakesh - authentic food and atmosphere, complete with a belly dancer. We prefer...
Spice Road Table - more though. For the waterfront views, lovely presentation of food (entrees not tapas), and awesome desserts.
Chefs de France - a homerun for food in our opinions. The restaurant itself is nothing to shout about other than it's refined but a little busy, but the food...the desserts...wonderful!
Rose & Crown - hearty eats, indoor or outdoor seating, can get a little rowdy. Not sure a 2 year old would care for it.
Le Cellier - signature dining experience, good food, but again, probably not for a 2 year old.

So...in conclusion, as I don't know what your daughter likes to eat, I'm going purely off of atmosphere for your party...San Angel Inn, Akershus, Biergarten.

Unless your dd is really into princesses I'd just go with qs in WS as there are so many good places to eat that take qs credits. For our upcoming trip we're only doing R&C and that's because it's on our bucket list and we want to see Illuminations from there. For the rest of our meals it will be qs and snacking

I've done a few table service restaurants at World Showcase and have liked them all:

Teppan Edo - lots of fun if you like Benihana and teppanyaki
San Angel Inn - lovely, romantical spot overlooking the Gran Fiesta Tour volcano and the food is good (and my kids love Mexican food)
Restaurant Marrakesh - the belly dancers are fun and the food - mostly tagine dishes and couscous is yummy (great for well-behaved kids)
Akershus - yay princesses and the cold cuts appetizer buffet is nice (my daughter is nuts about princesses, so this is how I avoid standing on line to meet random princesses in the parks)

Biergarten in Germany. Mom and Dad get to throw down a liter (or 2) of German beer while the 2 year old gets to run around the dance floor to the music. Make sure you request a table on the lowest tier (3 tiers? 4 tiers?) so you can keep an eye on the kid.

Oh, if we were talking about QS spots in Epcot that are great, we'd be here all day. But the OP did specifically ask about table service.

Does it have to be WS? We like Coral Reef (decent food. neat place if you get close to the "aquarium"). Also try The Garden Grill family style and Chip n Dale Character meal plus "Farmer" Mickey. Again , the food is decent. It's a fun rotating restaurant in The Land. I think most all of the restaurants at EPCOT are good. Enjoy!:)

I like Germany, food is buffet but there are lots of choices and there is a show. There is also table sharing.
Les Chef de France is our personal favorite. Excellent food and service, good deserts and excellent wine choises.
Had to laugh at one of the posts above mentioning they were not sure Rose and Crown in UK is a good choice for 2-year-old. One of our most memorable dining experiences ever at Epcot. We had ordered our food and our 2-year-old son had been in enough restaurants to know who brought the food to the table. So after waiting a few minutes, he started yelling at the top of his little lungs every time a member of the staff walked by, "Bring Me Chicken.!" My wife and I could have died, both wanting to sink through the floor and laughing our heads off. Not amazingly, his chicken arrived before our dinner. :) Canada would be my top choice if you can get a reservation, it's difficult

I don't think you can go wrong with any of them. Just pick a cuisine you like or a new one that you want to try and book it. They are all fairly pricey, with Canada probably setting the average person back several paychecks. But all are fun and have their own specific charms. Have fun! :)
