Ranking EVERY SINGLE Magic Kingdom Restaurant

[@michellemontgomery4834]

Sometimes when I’m depressed or anxious or overwhelmed, I turn AJ on for her super calming and joyful narration! These 50 min videos are the best!!

[@brittneymurphy9844]

Literally same. Her voice is so soothing.

[@imaginarysea]

Same.

[@jacksonearle2280]

Facts.

[@heatherhavenhall8839]

My husband and I are the same! Literally every single day look for a new DFB video, AJ’s soothing voice is second to none!

[@dcsmooth]

Her exaggerated breathing between statements, especially when she tries to be humorous, is annoying. Don’t get me wrong, the information is very helpful but she’s way to…..

Gaston’s Tavern 8/10 Top 5 Places I want to try: Be Our Guest, Columbia Harbor House, Skipper Canteen, Pinocchio Village Haus, Sunshine Tree Terrace

[@RhythmGameAddict]

If you want a quick ranked reference for the ratings in this video, here they are split by categories (I'm aware some of them are edge cases, but I think it's consistent enough internally to work): *Snacks/Beverages* 9/10 - Aloha Isle 9/10 - Sleepy Hollow 8/10 - Sunshine Tree Terrace 7.5/10 - Chesire Cafe 7.5/10 - Gaston's Tavern 7.5/10 - Plaza Ice Cream 7.5/10 - Storybook Treats 7/10 - Westward Ho 6/10 - Auntie Gravity's 5.5/10 - Main Street Bakery 5/10 - Cool Ship 5/10 - Liberty Sq Mkt 5/10 - Prince Eric's *Counter Service Meals* 8/10 - Casey's Corner 7/10 - Friar's Nook 6/10 - Golden Oak 6/10 - Lunching Pad 6/10 - Tomorrowland Terrace 5/10 - Tortuga Tavern *Quick Service* 9/10 - Columbia Harbor House 7/10 - Cosmic Ray's 6.5/10 - Pinocchio Village Haus 6/10 - Pecos Bill *Table Service* 9.5/10 - Liberty Tree Tavern 9/10 - Skipper Canteen 8/10 - Plaza Restaurant 7.5/10 - Cinderella Castle 7/10 - Be Our Guest 7/10 - Crystal Palace 6/10 - Diamond Horseshoe 5.5/10 - Tony's Town Square

[@dev.1359]

MVP right here, thank you

[@jeffreysmith5671]

Wow, no perfect scores for this park. Some places get very close though.

[@flodurelle437]

Bless you on liking Cosmic Rays as much as we do. I know it’s not a fancy smanzy place but it holds a special place in my heart. We are from Canada and have not been able to visit in 3 years but all of our previous visits included a meal at Cosmic Rays and we are hoping to return in 2023

[@caitsgray]

Okay AJ, there is little chance you’ll see this but… I think the couple that Bria saw get engaged at Gaston’s Tavern was my husband and I! He proposed there because we have been sharing cinnamon rolls at Gaston’s since our first trip to Disney several years ago! We love your channel and watch every Saturday morning!

[@edvaira6891]

These videos are actually quite good to just listen to the audio in the car as a podcast, AJ’s narration is THAT descriptive and fun!!

[@angelathomas9119]

That is literally what I was doing today.

[@rfrolicarts]

I don't really intend to take a trip to Disneyland or Disneyworld, but I love watching these videos because they're so well filmed/edited and I can get ideas for cool dishes to copy myself :)

[@jessethewestie22]

I would love a "if you could only go ONCE", must-eat, bucket list choices for each park!

[@ErikaaMartinez]

I’d love a version of this or a video that specified which restaurants offer gluten free/allergy friendly options. The way Disney caters to allergies/food sensitivities is definitely unique and it would be helpful to know which restaurants to go to and which to avoid.

[@DisturberOfThePeace]

I agree. (sorry ahead of time AJ) I would check out the frugal brit and their restaurant rankings. each one will have a thing on the side that rates each restaurant with stars in the category of gluten free and vegan options. at least until AJ and the team are able to create a video about allergen friendly foods.

[@danielleball3072]

I have a severe shellfish allergy and i really hate the smell of any fish, so would prefer to go places with no shellfish, i literally went through every menu today and made lists of places i can eat at 😅 would be nice to see some videos

[@sarahofthedsc]

I would love more of these for the other parks and Disney Springs! I’m trying to get my mother involved in the planning and she really enjoyed AJ’s comments, input, and humor in the descriptions!

[@aubreezily13]

I was able to snag reservations on my sister's eighth birthday for Be Our Guest- we are both huge fans of the movie and have never been to the restaurant, so we are over the moon excited! Thank you for your honest reviews, AJ! ♥️

[@jeremyjohansen5]

I just pick one up for next month too.

[@BriannaK]

Ahhh these are my favorite videos lately!! I love the rankings!!!

[@maeganhoney5593]

Are we getting one of these for all of the current restaurants for all parks?! Because...... yes please! Thank you!

[@AprilEscobar]

I second this! Thanks :)

[@amydoran9987]

Yes

[@nicolehutto4906]

The fruit waffle was AMAZING! Definitely one of my favorite meals

[@DFBGuide]

Team Nutella 4 lyfe

[@BigGBify]

I used to watch the behind the park on the Disney Channel as a kid. This channel gives me the nostalgia feels, please keep up the great work.

[@Itz_maiyah_]

You guys are amazing. I feel so prepared to go to Disney this fall thx never stop!!!!!

[@subzippo]

Be Our Guest blew our minds on a recent trip. Food was expensive but outstanding, far nicer than 'standard wedding fare' as you suggest. I'm not just some hick who's never had good food, ether. My wife and I love semi-fine to fine dining. It helped that we had a great waiter who made good suggestions and pairings. 10/10 Not a hod dog person at all but 25 minutes after soft-closing, our options were limited. We grabbed a chili dog at Casey's and it well exceeded my expectations. Ended up eating it with a knife and spoon because they were out of forks. 7/10, good for night owls.

[@judevicious3333]

Every time I watch one of your videos I get Disney fever SO BAD that I start literally dreaming of going to Disney. A dream is a wish, huh. 😊

[@lexdrish]

i’m sorry but i lost it when she said “you can try the gray stuff and see how it is because you already asked your dishes and they weren’t talking back” so funny😂

[@melj8706]

I’m always getting good ideas for food and snacks thanks to you AJ!!! I found DFB about 2007, not long after a trip where we ate at Cosmic Rays, I was so bummed I hadn’t known the better spots! Now, I take notes, make sure to eat at the best places, and we get the tastiest snacks. You turned me, and my now adult kids, into foodies! Thank you so much for all of your advice over the years.

[@Twilightavalon]

I will never stop going to Cosmic Rays as it's part of my childhood and where my family ate countless times. Is it only a burger and fries? sure, but it never fails to bring me joy.

[@justinguidroz9659]

As someone from south Louisiana who knows his seafood, Colombia Harbor House is the Disney restaurant I recommend to seafood lovers. I do not normally eat seafood outside of Louisiana, but I eat there almost every time I go to Disney.

[@joycekoch5746]

For lunch - love Mowgli's tree house in Adventure Land - seating is very limited but the Baloo Burger and Honey spun bananas for desert are great with the chilled Jungle punch. Be sure to get reservations at the tree house only seats about 15 people at a time.

[@susanshafer6489]

You had me at that Wawa shout out, AJ! (Philly burbs…PRESENT!) OK, that isn’t isn’t entirely accurate…you’ve had my heart since I started planning my family’s first Disney trip coming up in May! Thank you for helping a (formerly clueless) Mama out! ❤️

[@richardmercer2337]

Going with the "huge Beauty and the Beast Fan" clause. I will always eat at Be Our Guest as long as I can swallow the food....There are plenty of other places for a good meal.

[@richardmercer2337]

PS Could you please put in a bad word for Columbia Harbor House? Also my favorite CS place, and I don't need the competition!🙄

[@stevenkosoy4772]

I’m glad I already have reservations at Liberty Tree Tavern. I’ve been there before and liked it, but it’s been a lot of years. AJ’s enthusiasm for it is reassuring.

[@antilenerapp8667]

When i say the harbor house was fantastic it was so necessary when we were waiting for "Its a small world " line to shorten. Life saver

[@serenatwombly3602]

Can’t wait to see the animal kingdom and Hollywood studios versions of these vids! So helpful!

[@jamiejohnson1371]

Thank you so much for creating these videos. My Bf and I are going this upcoming September and we have learned so so much from your videos.We have our trip perfectly planned because of DFB. Thank you again for all you do to ensure people have the best possible experience. ❤️

[@tristansaurusrex4604]

I was there in July, and I fully regret not knowing about your channel at the time! I would have LOVED Harbor House for lunch, but I got stuck with Cosmic Ray's chicken strips :(

[@stephanieclark3591]

When we went in Nov/Dec, Gaston’s Tavern didn’t have the grey stuff which was disappointing. But we tried Liberty Tree for the first time. My whole family loved it! My brother missed Thanksgiving and Christmas so this was our family holiday meal. I think my mom said it was her favorite meal of the trip.

[@jljl24]

Yes, I keep looking at their menu hoping it comes back. We are going in October

[@tamiweeks6579]

Thank you for this!

[@jennifermuccioli1543]

I will say, if you’re Gluten Free or have any other food allergies I 100% recommend Be Our Guest. It’s been the best sit down restaurant in the parks I’ve eaten at and has had the biggest array of food to eat for those who are Gf. To be able to have options is not normal for those with allergies, and it’s usually a salad and a side salad. There’s actually appetizers, main courses, and desserts that are truly so good! Including that French onion soup, WITH BREAD!!

[@patticarr8046]

Thank you! Love MK and loved roaming around with AJ visiting each restaurant!

[@virtuallore]

Thank you for these complete park videos. I can’t believe there was a location that I’d never noticef before! Please do AK and HS too 🙏

[@lordjact6785]

Thank you for taking the time to explain the restaurants in such detail, this will help me a lot on my future trip to Disney!

[@mattcoffey1094]

In my honest opinion, you are the absolute best reviewer!!! Some how you make a review video fun to watch!

[@mercedeslois]

LOVED this video! Really hoping you’re going to roll this out across the other parks! I’d also love to hear a little about what’s available at the two water parks!

[@apfelbasket]

Storyook Treats is a place where people ask where you got that really good looking treat, as your waking around with it!!!

[@timeispreciousliveasgoodas8652]

Was just at Disney World last month and ate at a lot of wonderful sit down restaurants. It was very expensive everywhere but great food and beautiful decor. The best was at Animal Kingdom's Tiffins restaurant. Very relaxing and on the walls the framed pictures showed the research they did in different countries that inspired the themes in the park. FANTASTIC food!!!!!! Very expensive but was worth it to sit down after a long day and enjoy a meal and atmosphere. Also I LOVED the Skippers Cantena building especially the special table with the butterfly display. After walking to the restroom and seeing that I grabbed my husband to come see the butterfly display from a distance (the table had guests there) but loved it.

[@angelamontclair]

Surprised u didn’t mention the eggroll cart!

[@Megs658]

I’ve never been to Disney World but binge watching all these videos makes me want to book a trip. Great info!

[@playarabbit]

"the Pepperjack Pretzel popped up" I love that so glad you said it's "Popular" in the next sentence

[@kyliemulligan270]

Okay I need this but for EPCOT! Food AND drink addition. Love this!

[@akelly2791]

You’re in luck! There was an EPCOT version released about a week ago. It’s a gem ❤️

[@sharonh4784]

Fave quote “well this ain’t it” love it. Getting ready for a quick birthday getaway. 😁

[@hapa442100]

[@IftinAbshir]

I am so excited for the Society of Explorers and Adventures series being produced for Disney+!!

[@jordirenaud9438]

Columbia harbor house is my favorite restaurant in MK. the food is so good and I loved the atmosphere

[@Chernobog34]

My brothers and I went to Disney World last May, and on a whim, entered the Columbia harbor house. Best find of the entire trip. The lobster roll was extraordinary, and the fries were fresh and delicious. Definitely will go there again next time I visit.

[@comi3659]

Please do a video ranking all the Disney World resort restaurants!

[@jakemason4801]

I'm going to WDW next week and I want the Casey's baseball brownie but I don't see it on the menu. Did they remove it again? I thought they recently brought it back?

[@HandleHandle233]

I didn’t think Skipper Canteen would be for us, but we wanted a last-minute reservation and I cannot believe how much we loved it! That might be the best meal I have had in Disney World ever.😻

[@polemius01]

- Other than my own hot dog preparation, I like Casey's best. I get it with cheese on a gluten-free bun. Cosmic Ray's has the same dog . . . and, Sonny Eclipse! - I love Skipper Canteen! - Last July, the formerly wondrous fixings bar at Pecos Bill was closed. I hope it will be back soon. But, I guess if they're now making money on toppings . . . - Pinocchio has g-f pizza, so it's okay with me. - Once, at the Ice Cream Parlor, I was behind a series of clueless guests making the most ridiculous demands. When I made my order from the printed menu (as always, with me, efficiently), the CM said, "Thank you for making my job easier!" - Sadly Orange Bird has associations with Anita Bryant, which does not make it a "Magic Character" for me. - Tony's is the only place I've ever been to that has had g-f spaghetti and meatballs. Ordinary, but it's a rare treat for me!

[@Ishaki93]

I’d like to see a version of this with the resort restaurants

[@hardytyler1492]

I love love love love Disney food blogs because I haven’t been to Disney world since 1996 ( yeah) .. I get my daily fix for Disney by listening to AJ!! You are amazing blogger AJ! Love y’all!

[@jessethewestie22]

Ditto! Was last there in 1996. But looking forward to finally going next year!!

[@Nunyabiz34]

I have to add that for people with allergies and/or gluten free, Be Our Guest was my 10/10 in MK. The chef came out, spoke with me at length about my options and prepared a wonderful meal & dessert plate for me. As someone who really doesn’t get to enjoy all the yummy meals and treats, BOG was my absolute favorite out of 8 days in parks and several table service meals. So for you gluten free folks, this is the best!

[@pinkypalettes2335]

I couldn't agree with you more! Me and my sister are both allergic to gluten/wheat and dairy and the attentiveness of the staff was amazing.

[@kratze1738]

I had seasonal passes at least 2 years, and I didn't even know some of these restaurants existed! Thanks!

[@mabesays_]

THANK YOU DFB!!! I’m going in May and was looking for an updated version of this.

[@damedechatfou3832]

I grew up 15 minutes from Disney World and have attended countless times. I swear to god I've NEVER seen Tortuga Tavern open.

[@juliescholfield6196]

Thank you for this. My parents are coming with us on our next trip. This is helping me and giving them homework 😊

[@airdoty9273]

Went to Disney last week and Tortuga was open and had the banana Nutella PB sandwich. So awesome!

[@robertshay9235]

Thanks for such a helpful video in advance of our trip next month!

The Plaza Ice Cream Parlor is the one location I will literally fast the whole day for so I can get my Chocolate Mint Chip Ice Cream Cookie Sandwich……my mouth is already salivating for our trip in June for it 🤤

[@Idreallyrathernotthanks]

Columbia Harbour House FTW. AJ is such a pro...such great delivery.

[@phoeberose.x]

I’m always watching your videos! I’m going in July and I can’t wait! I’ve made a whole book off your videos, so I’m prepared for when I go! 🤍

[@disneynana239]

Thank you for your love of Liberty Tree Tavern!! Me too!!

[@KimiKat07]

As a South Jersey girl, I love that you mentioned Wawa! I could not agree more about the Liberty Tree Tavern. It is the best restaurant in MK!

[@Gamemaster856]

The joy you feel when you realize that you’ll get at least 4, but hopefully 6 videos in this series.

[@nikkibolwin1509]

100% agree on Cosmic Rays, was my 1st Disney restaurant years ago and will.never go back due to the stress atmosphere.

[@caro8414]

Please do this for Disneyland and DCA!!

[@EricaAnne1982]

Great video, especially for those looking for a solid overview. However, I think five or ten degrees for ratings would make more sense than the twenty degrees used in this video series.

[@christyverplank3552]

Columbia Harbor House has been a favorite for a decade. Highly recommend.

[@PatandSam]

Such a shame the harbour house ditched theyre nice sandwiches😭 i loved those!

[@StarWarsGHub05]

I love Cosmic Ray’s, I’ve eaten there every time we have went to Disney and half of the time I get violently ill but hey that doesn’t stop me from coming back😂

[@Lucyhenry1509]

Whenever my coworker annoys me.. I listen to AJ. Thanks DFB 😊

[@rotjrotk]

AJ, I'm sad to hear that the Crystal Palace no longer does Breakfast. For my family, we would always do this character restaurant bc it made for a great Brunch. We'd get to MK early, do a ton of rides and by 10:30 we'd be ready for a great brunch with Tigger and Pooh. That would fill us up and there would be no need for lunch...saving us money till dinner.

[@Not_A_JTAC]

Please do one for the other parks in this style! Very easy to follow and interesting

[@pinkpiscesmoon1599]

11 days and we’re off to our first trip to Disney ! 🥳🥳🥳🥳

[@DesignsByMissM]

Oh man, can't believe you rated Pinocchio higher than Pecos Bills! I feel like Pecos Bill is the hidden gem of the park: lots of indoor seating, less pricy than other restaurants, and typically has a good vegetarian option. Love listening to your videos, though!

[@christinawallace8420]

These are more of ratings than rankings. But I did appreciate the ratings and input about each restaurant!

[@mysterymayscatool]

I work at a Wawa ! I love those stuffed cream cheese pretzles!

[@pipersterner1298]

Heading to magic kingdom this Sunday and can’t wait to try these out!

[@Sillyzombie666]

still shocked they havent redone the speedway to make it electric since the technology is more than ready now for it like quick charging, induction charging and they wouldnt have to change anything other than the pits and the cars. they could partner up with any car company that makes evs and it is the tech of the future so it would not only fit the theme, it would be green energy and it would solve both the smell of the gas, the noise and probably help alot with upkeep and maintenance

[@madelinealba884]

Can you please rank the restaurants in Disney Springs?? That would be so cool!!!

[@thelisarahman]

Hear me out: what if you guys made a poll for these places and have the subscribers vote and then rank based on the data? Because thanksgiving dinner on not the 4th Thursday of November doesn’t scream a 10/10 for me.

[@karil6461]

Yah Florida heat and these super heavy foods isn't my vibe.

[@americanbadass05]

We got CRT for Valentine’s Day at 9 pm about a week before due to a cancellation we had Be Our Guest before that but seeing CRT is smaller and harder to get. We chose that even though we’ve seen your reviews before and thought the food would be OK not great. But the food was actually really good and thought the review was based on an older sampling. We really enjoyed it. We have eaten at quite a few places like Steak 71 and Space 220 recently and CRT was above Space and on Par as 71.

[@kellysunserenity4068]

Thumbs up for Liberty Tree! Oh and why the dessert is so good? Extra Pixie Dust???

[@maeganhoney5593]

Gastons is my favorite air conditioned cool shady place to relax. Found it on my very first trip and found myself back there frequently.

Loved Be Our Guest when we were there in December 2019

[@NoBSEateries]

Thanks for putting this all together! -S

[@thatevoguy192]

I'm going to magic Kingdom and Hollywood studios this summer so this is clutch! Do Hollywood studios next!

[@amberford5658]

I love that there is fresh fruit..sometimes we just need,a banana😆😆

[@juliethomas8503]

The one thing I can say about Disney restaurants is that they are never the same from trip to trip. The first time we dined at Be Our Guest we thought it was okay. Then we had a few experiences that were truly awful. We continued to go back because my kids loved being in the Beast's castle. We went to Disney January 2022 for 2 weeks and no joke Be Our Guest was the best meal we had on property the entire trip. We liked it so much we ended up eating there 3 times. On the other hand Citricos which we typically love was absolutely terrible and California Grill was okay but way too pricey for what you got. We are going back to Florida next week because my daughter has a gymnastics competition and we are planning to spend a few days in Disney. I've already made 1 reservation for Be Our Guest and I will gladly make another if I can find availability. Our next trip probably won't be until November or December and I will make reservations for Be Our Guest, Citricos and California Grill just like this past trip. I expect some of it will be great, some of it will be okay and some of it will be awful, but we won't know what's what until we get there. The one thing that has disappointed me about Be Our Guest in recent years is that they no longer fold the napkins into roses for the table setting. It doesn't impact the quality of the food, but I thought it was a nice touch to add to the atmosphere and I miss that.

[@Astronaut_FX]

I'm still having Gaston's cinnamon roll withdrawals. Gotta give that a ten out of ten.
