MDR dinner is too long for little kids without entertainment, so on the Fantasy it's fine in Animators, and ... yeah, it was hard for us on our first two cruises (kids were 2&5 then 4&7). The waiters were awesome and did everything they could, including bringing the kids' food first, and swapping in things they knew our kids liked, but some of those nights were a struggle. We eat dinner together almost every night at home, but that's a 30 minute affair. We ended up just bringing coloring books for them most nights and crossing our fingers.
It should be easier this time. now that they are bigger,
It's not that I want a buffet, per se, as we skip the Cabanas buffet for most lunches, sticking with pool side instead. The lines are hard, people are rude, etc, it's not a great experience at lunch. I can only assume the same would be true of dinner. I just wish there were a shorter option for the MDRs -- but I know so much of this is tied to just the reality of life on a cruise ship, it's hard to customize.
