How can you go to the USA, home of McD's and not pay a visit to the world's largest McDonalds!? In addition to the regular McDonalds menu, you can choose from a large variety of meals from the Bistro Gourmet menu.
There's a play place and arcade games to keep the kids amused.
Open 24 hours.

Mango Joe's Café Ole is one of the many restaurants/café you can find inside SeaWorld and it is located near Shamu's Happy Harbor.
The food and the service was quite good especially if you're hungry and you spent a full day in SeaWorld :)! You can eat in the patio or indoor.
Favorite Dish: I can suggest to taste the following dishes: Combo Fajita Sandwich: tender marinated meats freshly grilled and full of flavor. As dessert you can eat a pudding and drinks coke.

The Crystal Palace is a Character Buffet that serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. While you enjoy your meal Tigger, Pooh, Piglet and Eeyore visit the tables. The Crystal Palace is a lrge Restaurant locate din the Magic Kingdom right off of Main Street. Reservations are suggested and I think it's a must since slots fill up very quickly especially for breakfast. We always make reservations for breakfast since it is one of our favorite meals of the day and the breakfast here is very good. I have eaten at other Disney buffets and this one is the best food quality, taste and service hands down.
You can't miss the Crystal Palace with it's beautiful Victorian structure and large porch. Check in withthe hostess and give her your name. They call your pary and bring you inside to be seated. Inside the dining area is large with light colored walls and an open, airy feeling. The centerpiece of the dining room is the Tigger, Pooh, Eyeore and Piglet colorful topiaries at the entrance. There are several table throughout the dining room that can accomodate as small a party as two people up to whole families of 10 or more.
Liz is a huge Tigger fan and always has a breakfast here when she is in Disney. I ialways indulge her wish and agree to breakfast here when we visit Disney. The breakfast is always excellent with a large selectons of : Mickey Waffles, pancakes, eggs, bacon, potatoes, cereals, fruit, cheeses and assorted pastry.
Characters such as Tigger, Pooh, Eyeore and Piglet roam from table to table signing autographs and taking pictures with guests. Liz enjoys taking pictures with the characters more than any child I have seen. Her favorite character is Tigger but she has to hug all of them. She even told Piglet that she had just eaten her for breakfast much to Piglet horror.
$18.99 for adults and $10.99 for kids (3-yrs old) for breakfast.
Favorite Dish: The Mickey Waffles here are very good and cooked perfectly. The eggs here are very good and it's hard to decide between fried, scrambled or an omlette. The bacon and sausage are tasty and cooked well. The fruit selection is good and the fruit is very fresh and delicious. I am always happy with my breakfast here and leave with a full stomach.
Liz loves here Mickey Waffles and enjoys sprinkling them with brown sugar and maple syrup for a tasty sweet treat. She has her own way of eating her Mickey Waffle: at the ears first so Mickey can't hear himself screaming....

Food was good but the restaurant had a very funny atmosphere. It was like all the staff had just been told they were being made redundant. Everyone was miserable, some seemed to be having arguments with each other. While the food was good it was also very over priced. I guess that's due to its location?? but saying that not far away is UNO bar and grill which was excellent with very good food and good price's. There are loads of places to eat in Orlando so avoid this one and go elsewhere.

Shake-N-Steak is a chain restaurant found throughout most of the Midwest & the Southern States. Luckily they are also in Florida with several locations in Orlando. This makes a great break from the "Disney"fare that abounds in Orlando. They serve simple American food for lunch & breakfast. Feeding a family of 5 in DisneyWorld is no trivial matter and going to this place makes everyone happy and budget-conscious.
Favorite Dish: I love their grilled chicken sandwiches for its simplicity and the fact that they can do it my way.
Their milkshakes and malts are very tasty too.

Fabulous atmosphere and great seafood dishes. They also have burgers and chicken. Amazing tropical aquariums, rainstorms every haf hour and animated animals. Always packed and always has a wait so get there before you reach the point of starving.
I have been to the one at Animal Kingdom and the one at Downtown Disney. Both were great. Pricey but not outrageous. $15-25 per person
Favorite Dish: Shrimp trio. Great sauces. Fresh seafood.

We had woken up early and were headed out to catch our cruise ship. We decided to grab breakfast on the way out of Orlando. When I suggested IHOP, Liz was all for it. The IHOP was pretty large and we were seated immediately. The service here was quick and friendly. As always were were very happy with our food and were able to head off to catch the boat with plenty of extra time.
Favorite Dish: Liz had her favorite the Cinnamon Bun French Toast and an Ice Tea. I ordered the Strawberry French Toast and an Iced Tea. We're never dissapointed by the food here, it is consistenly good at all IHOP locations we have visited.

The soda fountain is elf serve and has a nice selection of assorted sodas. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. There are various sections to get different types of food such as pizza, sandwiches, chicken etc. After getting your food you pay at a central cashier. The prices are quite reasonable and it's a fash way to grab a meal.
Liz and I came here for breakfast, pick up our souvenir refillable mug and get some refills throuighout our stay.
Favorite Dish: Liz had the Mickey Waffle with Bacon for breakfast. She loves her Mickey Wafle and it's always a pleasure to watch her smile as she devours Mickey. I had the Bounty Breakfast which is eggs, bacon, sausage, potatoes, biscuit and french toast. The breakfast was too much for me and I wound up leaving alot of it on my plate.
The waffle with bacon was an affordable $6.69
The Bounty Breakfast was $8.29
The souvenir refillable mug was $12.49 plus tax.

Orlando gets a bad rap, but it is actually a very cool town if you look beyond the glitz. If you stick to Theme Parks, you are missing the true Orlando. The city itself has a very 'young at heart'...
