EPCOT for dinner - where to go with little kids?

We're looking to try some new places for dinner this coming December in EPCOT. We always eat in China and in Mexico but want to try another two places for some new experiences. We're traveling with a 3 year old and a 5 year old, and we own an Itallian restaurant here in NY so we prefer not to eat Italian out. What are our best bets??? Your favs??? Most fun??? Best food??? Good for viewing Illuminations???

Teppyanki and Rose and Crown. Teppyanki is one of our favorite restaurants and I have heard that Rose and Crown is good and since it's right on the water it would be great for viewing Illuminations if you get a table on the patio.

I would second the vote for Teppanyaki. My kids loved watching the "show" and the food was delicious! We also really like Coral Reef. It's fun watching the fish, turtles, etc, swim by, and we have gotten very good meals both times! (And the chocolate wave is YUMMY!)

For a 3 & 5 year old? How about the Garden Grill in the Land? What's better than dining with characters in a revolving restaurant??? I wouldn't say it's the best food in all of WDW, but it is our family's favorite character meal!!

I would think Le Celluer would be pretty easy to find kid friendly foods and I hear it is to die for

I really don't know as I've only eaten at one TS and that was in Norway, and unless your kids really like seafood I'm not sure that's teh place to eat lol

We ate at Coral Reef and were lucky enough to be seated right next to the aquarium! I was kind of disappointed with the view and scenery until a Huge sea turtle decided he liked my DS 4 and hung out with him for the entire meal!!! Nothing could compare to that! My hands down vote would be for Coral- Yummy lobster chowder or bisque too!

I also have to vote for Teppanyaki- I have a great picture of my kids with HUGE eyes just staring at the chef working his magic-it was 18 months ago and they still talk about it to this day! The food was great, too. (BTW, my kids were 3 and 5 at the time.)

For the view, go for Coral Reef. I still get a kick out of it, as does DD (now 11). It's been her favorite since she was 5 months old!
