Let’s Be Honest – Are the “Best Restaurants” in Magic Kingdom Even That Good?

[Sheriff Woody]

Okay, I know everyone has their favorite, but I’m struggling to find a great meal inside Magic Kingdom. People say Be Our Guest is iconic, but is it actually good or just a photo op? Same with Cinderella’s Royal Table—worth it or just something you check off the list?

In your honest opinion, what are the best restaurants in Magic Kingdom for the food? I don’t mind table service or quick service—I just want a meal that’s memorable (for good reasons).

And if you think most of the food is just okay, say that too. I’m here for the real talk.

We always do Crystal Palace for the character breakfast—it’s not gourmet, but it’s fun and the food is kid-friendly. I wouldn’t call it one of the best restaurants in Magic Kingdom for flavor, but it’s a win for the experience. If you have littles, that and Pinocchio Village Haus are our go-tos. Easy and quick!

I’ve done nearly every restaurant in MK solo and honestly—Plaza Restaurant is my sleeper pick. It’s not hyped, but it’s solid, affordable-ish, and you can actually relax there. If I want something “best of MK,” that’s where I book first. Skipper Canteen is a close second if I’m feeling adventurous!

Oh boy, Skipper Canteen is one of the best. However, most of the restaurants in Magic Kingdom Park are not super great.

I think most of the places to eat there are so -so. go to the resorts on the monorail line.
