For Swan and Dolphin specifically:
Grab/Go and quick breakfast: Java and fuel have pretty darn good coffee and decent breakfast offerings.
QS:
- The Fountain is good diner-style food. One of my fave spots and good for what it is.
- As mentioned before the Cabana pool bar has good seating outside and surprisingly good food.
Lounges: One of the sleepers at S/D are all of the great lounges. Perfect for getting the TS quality meal with no ressies and quicker experience.
- Shula's at the Dolphin. The french onion soup is to die for. One of my fave meals is to get that soup and a salad in the lounge with one of their great cocktails. Obviously steaks are great too.
- Stir lounge at Swan reserve. Their flatbreads are phenomenal. I think some of the best pizza at WDW.
- Rosa Mexicano. Most of their food is good, but the quesadillas are some of the best I've had anywhere. Highly recommend any of them - personally had the steak and shrimp ones, but the nephews had the cheese quesadilla and I would order that in a heartbeat too. Also weirdly enough their chicken tenders were amazing that the kids had too.
- Kimonos or Il Mulino are both solid offerings, not necessarily my go-to, but wouldn't hesitate to eat at either one of these anytime.
