    Flame Tree Barbecue
    Yorkshire Fish & Chips

    I also used to like Tusker House but now that isn't quick service. So I guess Cosmic Rays, although the 3 stations are annoying, since DH and I never want the same thing. So we both end up standing in line.

    They have a salmon dinner that is probably the best value at WDW (this may have changed into a character dinner or something since I was last there).

    2. Kringla Bakeri og Cafe - Epcot
    School Bread... to die for!

    3. Tangierine Cafe - Epcot
    Food so good you forget it is counter service.

    4. Riverside Mill Food Court -- Port Orleans Riverside
    WDW's best food court (This was previously and more properly know as the Colonel's Cotton Mill at Dixie Landings).

    5. Columbia Harbor House - MK
    Pretty good food and the "bridge" eating area upstairs is an island of tranquility amidst the hubbub of Fantasy Land.

    Pepper Market (CSR)

    Flame Tree

    Wolfgang Puck Express

    Cheesecake Factory Express, DisneyQuest (great burgers!)

    Hess gas station pizza

    If I eat fast food on property, it is almost always at one of these restaurants. I know it's more than 5, but I couldn't really narrow it down. :) The Tangerine cafe has good cous cous, and Sunshine Seasons is decent but out of my budget.

    1. Flame Tree BBQ (now Tuskers has changed).
    2. La Cantina in Epcot
    3. Yakatori House Epcot
    4. the chinese at Epcot
    5. The Mara - AKL (but I understand they dumbed it down)

    Honorable mention to Captain Cook's at the Polynesian - dole whip - yum.

    All Mk quick service is rubbish in my experience (except maybe Casey's Corner)

    I can feed all of my kids and their parents fast and we all LOVE the chicken and mashed potatoes!

    2.) El Pirata Y El Perico Restaurant
    But this one has not been open for a very long time, at least not while we have been at the park.

    3.) Fast Service at Tiki Room Exit
    Not sure of the name, but this one gives me coffee for a second wind right at the perfect time of day, 5:00 PM or so.

    4.) Backlot Express
    We love this little out of the way place, it's tucked between Star Tours and Indiana sort of. We enjoy the food, fried and fat, lol we love this one but for some reason it's a mixed emotion, as for whatever reason we always end up eating here before we leave WDW on our last day of vacation! :(

    5.) Land Pavillion Quick Service, lower level.
    I'm not sure of the name, but this is amazingly healthy food and my kids love it. We never miss it for great lunch.

    Also
    we also like Pecos Bills and Pizzafari. Loved Tusker house before (isn't it still a counter service - just in a buffet). Looking forward to trying Yalk and Yeti.

This time, they had chicken nuggets and other non-noodle items (they may have had SOMETHING with noodles, but mostly it was just the same-old as everywhere else).

    Liberty Inn @ Epcot - every December during our visit we sit outside here during the Candlelight Processional.

    The Mara at AKL - zebra domes to go!

    Restaurantosaurus - hubby loves to pile up a hamburger with all the fixings, I love to sing Walk The Dinosaur while eating. ;)

    Pizzafari/Flame Tree - Husband loves ribs, I love pizza. We go our separate ways and meet up once we have our food to eat.
