Does Goofys Kitchen have a special Thanksgiving dinner or is there somewhere else that offers a Thanksgiving meal? Thanks

Last year I was there Dec 18 and 19 and while busy, it was manageable-but neither day was on a weekend.

If you do not have advanced reservations for dinner at ANY place at the DLR you will not be having a Thanksgiving meal at any of the sit downs at the resort. We passed coutless lines of people trying to get a time to eat and seeing them turned away in droves was kinda sad.
