    Oh no! The Prime Time Diner was horrible. Not the food, but the way the staff treated us was humiliating. But we did really like the Cinderella table character meal. Our best meal at Disney though was at Ohana. We STILL talk about that dinner!

    Hmm, I'm hungry now!

    Great, and thank you!

    Great picks, Abby. Can you believe, I only live about 2 1/2 hours or so from Disney World and NEVER go? I went about 25 years ago when I lived up north. I'm sure it's changed a lot since then.

    When my sister and I went there to meet my pen pal, we ended up at a LoneStar restaurant, because we wanted to give my pen pal a real "American" experience. Also, some of those other restaurants were REALLY expensive. Your review would have been helpful last year ;)
