This is a Disney must do when we bring our developmentally disabled adult son on vacation. I definitely don't think the food is worth the price but we were once again on the dining plan so it is a bit easier to ignore the cost to value ratio. The food is not really bad, and the variety is definitely not an issue as they have everything you can possibly think of for breakfast. The characters were great as always with our son so we will probably be back.

I was disappointed with this after I had heard such good things. It was so big you could only see the characters if they were close to your table. The food was just ok. I like the Chrystal Palace much better for breakfast.

Obviously, you are paying for the characters here, and we had excellent character interaction. We just felt the food was very average and didn't offer any distinctive breakfast items like other popular character breakfasts. Ex. Crystal Palace, 1900 PF, and Cape May all have more elevated food options among their offerings to make you feel like there's a bit more value in the meal. The service this time was really only so/so. It's not the worst we've ever had, but it also wasn't great... which bites since we were a party of 9 i.e. she was getting an 18% tip no matter how bad she was. I think we're going to give this one a rest on future trips.
Pros:
good characters, good locationCons:

Character breakfast where characters come to you for photos and autographs. Selection of food was good. Service was good. Atmosphere was loud with characters and kids and monorail.

Character Breakfast at Chef Mickey is the BEST breakfast on the Disney Property. It is not to be missed for families and couples alike. The amount of food is epic and the selection is unparalleled. The wait staff seems to be enjoying themselves as much as the guests. For mothers and fathers, let it be noted that the characters spend a tremendous amount of time at each table and there are many of them. I also thought it was a nice touch when a manager came over and asked us if we had met each of the characters. It was a checklist. And we didn’t even have kids! We were honeymooning which leads me to say that once again, Disney pulls out all the stops for those celebrating a special event. Though we were already stuffed, we received adorable Mickey chocolate cupcakes for free! We did not have to eat for the rest of the day. Starting a day at Disney with a character breakfast is the most fun and the best way to go!

We love Chef Mickey's. It is the best breakfast buffet in Disney (our opinion). The food is always good and fresh and plentiful. Always lots of Mickey waffles!

Overall a very good experience. We ate here on the 4th July for breakfast. We found the buffet to be good but not outstanding like Crystal Place or 1900 Park Fare. i guess it really depends on how you like your eggs...The pancakes were tough too. None of our party went back for a second trip.
The characters were hilarious, probably the best show ever put on at a character event other than Crystal Palace. Minnie was adorable, very attentive and totally in character. Donald scratched the armpit of a man who had his arms raised and the whole restaurant burst into laughter.
We would go again as most events are worth a second glance, likely tho we would go for dinner.

I have eaten at Chef Mickeys with my family for breakfast and dinner on many occasions, the last being for breakfast on July 2nd. There were positives and negatives to the dining experience.
My party of 6 waited about 20 minutes after our 11 am reservation time. No big deal, we weren't in any hurry.
We were seated at a table next to the window, facing the Magic Kingdom ( in the very back of the restaurant). The location was perfect. Unfortunately, the restaurant was filthy. I have never seen so much food all over the floor. The staff really should have done a better job with keeping things clean. The chairs were sticky and the table we were seated at wasn't wiped down properly.
The buffet was plentiful and was constantly being replenished. Everything we chose to eat tasted good. The hot items were hot and the cold items were chilled. The Mickey waffles were soooo yummy, as was the breakfast pizza.
The charaters were as awesome as ever. They spent a great deal of time with my kids (13, 13, 17 and 21). Our pictures are priceless!!!
The waitress surprised me and my husband with a cupcake to celebrate our 6th wedding anniversary. That was a nice touch.
I really wanted to give Chef Mickeys a 10. I just couldn't get over how dirty it was.

We make minimum 3 reservations here every trip. My girls are older and yes the characters are great, but we come for the food. We have eaten almost everywhere that serves breakfast @ Disney and Chef Mickeys is #1. Great experience and great food. Any request you have they will fulfill it. We are home now from our trip and I already miss the food here. Enjoy for those who will be eating here soon :)!
