Review:  I had been to this restaurant before with an enjoyable experience but this time (FEB 2008) was different. We had reservations at the beginning of the day and still had to wait outside then they sat us with a number of other families at the same time. Once inside the food was not as good as I had remembered it. The sausage ended up being vegetarian sausage. The biggest problem was the other families yelling for the characters while they were at other tables and also changing their childrens clothes in the middle of the restaurant into the Disney Princess outfits for their picture with the characters. Also, the waiter lost my card/ticket/doorpass when I had paid. It ended up being found on the floor in the back. It will be a while before I go back.

Review:  This was the highlight for me and my 2 year old because we got to see Tigger close up. Oh yeah and we got the pictures to prove it.  We came with our family of 5 adults and 4 children ranging from ages 2 thru 12 years. The children didn't eat very much because they were so excited and I had to pay the adult price for my 12 year old. I know this is 2007 and if you want great quality you got to pay great money. Thank you for a great meal.

Review:  We've done the character breakfast here about 5 times.  Excellent service, value, food and atmosphere.  The characters come by a bit quickly, but they make an effort for you to get the pictures you want and give some attention to each child...and even the adults.  Well worth the time & money.

Review:  Don't waste your money to eat with characters. It's not worth the money to see the characters -- very quick visits and it is very busy and most people I talked to couldn't believe they spent that much on such a poor meal. The food was not good at all.  Bread and rolls as hard as the chairs.  Trust me there is characters all over the place.

Review:  The Crystal Palace is ALWAYS the highlight of our Disney trip.  Six years and we've never been disappointed.  The characters, waiters, everyone goes out of their way to make your memories magical.  Last year we even had a singing waiter!  The characters take time with the children and are adorable.  The food is FANTASTIC!!!

Review:  I love Pooh!!!  This was a great experience for me and my 6 year old niece!  We will definitely be going back.  The food was excellent, and the characters were the best.

"The Crystal Palace in Magic Kingdom was very good. The kids had a wonderful time there. The buffet is very good and they have a special section for kids with Mac & Cheese, chicken nuggets and PB&J." - Maria

Review:  We and our friends took 5 kids between the ages of 7 and 12 to the Crystal Palace for the Winnie the Pooh dinner buffet.  The food was terrific and there were enough choices for even the pickiest eater.  The kids loved the desserts and invented new sundaes.  We also were fortunate enough to be able to watch the fireworks from the restaurant at night.  Even the 12 year old got a hug from Winnie the Pooh and Tigger.  We recommend this restaurant as great value for our $$$.

Review:  My daughters and I live in FL and go to all the theme parks many times per year.  We have been dining at the Crystal Palace since 1998 and we absolutely love it.  This restaurant is beautiful inside and out and the food is delicious.  The lighting is perfect for character pictures and you will get plenty of those because the characters are very attentive to families with children.  You do not want to miss this one!

Review:  My family went to our first character lunch at the Crystal Palace.  It was great.  My daughter who is generally a complainer enjoyed herself very much and lit up with a huge smile when Tigger and Eeyore visited our table.  The variety of food was good and the desserts were my favorite.  The wait was only 5 minutes approximately with priority seating.  We were never rushed and the service was fantastic.  We went on December 24, and the Christmas decorations made it extra special. Paid price for 4 adults at $16.99 each, including soft drinks.  My children who attended were ages 14 and 19.  Definitely worth it, considering how much fun we all had.

Review:  We had not planned to have a character meal, but we are big Tigger fans, so we decided to do this Pooh character lunch.  It was fantastic!!!  The buffet was very good with a big variety of selections.  The atmosphere is airy and beautiful.  The Pooh characters were great!!!  Pooh, Tigger, Piglet and Eeyore visited every table at least 2 or 3 times.  They were sensitive to tiny toddlers who may be scared and teased older kids and adults (like us) who were just thrilled to have their picture taken.  We had priority seating, and it was necessary.  Would do this one again in a heartbeat.

Review:  We were very impressed with the crystal palace.  We showed up an hour early and got seated 15 min later.  We had 3 adults and 2 children and everyone liked the food.  The characters each came by about twice and the help went out of their way to be nice.  Would go back even without children.
