Had a great time with my 6 year old boy at this character meal. Food was good, buffet style, several options from tradtional eggs and bacon to pastries with a nice carving station. The Jambo juice was very good. We had a nice location with plenty of room for pictures when the characters visited. Good flow and timing with eating and the characters visits.
Pros:
Food, Characters, ease of making the reservationCons:

We chose this because we always do one character breakfast and DH is sick of being made to feel guilty when Piglet comes up just as he's chowing down on Piglet's Cousins bacon and sausage...The choice of foods was excellent and the addition of Jambo juice from Boma was great. Food was kept replenished and hot, with none of the crazy queueing system seen at Boma. The characters came around several times and the noise level wasn't horrendous. Only downside was that our photopass photo with Donald was out of focus-they did offer us the chance to go back and do it again at the end of the meal, but we thought it would be OK as they had also taken a photo on my camera-NOPE, that was all out of focus too. Wondering if the photographer had ever seen a camera before that morning!
Pros:
lots of choiceCons:

Tusker House was our 4th Character Breakfast. We ate here before boarding the Animal Kingdom’s Wild Animal Trek which is close by. The large breakfast bar is the perfect start to tacking Disney’s Animal Kingdom which feels like the land with the most walking. The Animal Kingdom continues to impress me for it really feels the most authentic as far as décor is concerned. Photo opportunities abound in this restaurant. There is a substantial amount of African inspired dishes on the breakfast bar. Many were a bit too unique for my taste, but sampling was fun. I would say this was the least children friendly buffet as far as food goes. Seriously, character meals are for adults too!

We had a pretty good experience at Tusker House. Luckily were were able to get in early before the park even opened and I liked the fact that there was a separate line for us to get in and people were directing us. I was surprised to find that the place was not packed to the gills and the food was plentiful and we had many choices. We didn't go away from this meal hungry!
I was only mildly disappointed with the character experience.. we did get to meet Donald, Daisy, Mickey and Goofy- which was awesome (only Donald didn't sign autographs) but it just felt a little rushed. Also, we were in a back corner where we had to shut the blinds so that we weren't blinded by the sun but made it difficult to get good pictures.
Staff was very accommodating and extremely friendly! Would spend the money to do it again (although it's pretty high for a breakfast!)
On the flip side, Disney should bottle the juice that they serve for breakfast there! I could have enjoyed an entire jug of it! Amazing!
Pros:
food, characters, location,juiceCons:

We went for breakfast during our trip in December 2021. The characters were great with our little one - Daisy blew her a kiss, and our daughter smiled like crazy! - and the food was great! The unique addition to a classic brunch spread was tasty! The only down side is that dining in a park means lost time around the park, especially on a day where hopping is in the cards.
Pros:
great character interactions, great foodCons:
