We did the free quick servic plan that was available during that time. When you make your reservations ask if it is available. Was well worth it. We still purchased a couple of character lunches also. The Tusker house at animal kingdom was our favorite by far.

My take: there are a lot of interesting restaurants at Disney, but the food is not "great." If you are looking for knockout food, you won't find it. You will find "good" food at some places and kind of bland, indistinct food at most places. Also, serving sizes tend to be gigantic there. Keep that in mind.
That being said, my favorite restaurants:
Le Cellier - Canada Pavilion
Ohana - Polynesian Resort
1900 Park Fare - Grand Floridian (breakfast)
Liberty Tree Tavern - for when I'm starving in the Magic Kingdom. Usually easy to get into.
Whispering Canyon Cafe - Wilderness Resort - for their milkshakes.
My advice on food - don't eat out every day. If you're staying five days, just pick two places to have dinner, and two places to do breakfast. In between, just pick up some pizza or Popeyes or something in the hotel room. Kids will love that. Never underestimate the benefits of down time in the room for the kids, and they will be craving something familiar to them. The parks wear them out. Big time.
As for the hotels, here's where I've stayed in order of preference:
Wilderness Lodge
Animal Kingdom Lodge
Some condo place off-site (sorry, can't remember)
Caribbean Resort - this hotel is HUGE, and it takes a while to walk around in it.
All-Star Resort (they are all the same) don't really recommend.

Cat Cora's restaurant was our favorite, but I believe it's now closed.
I also thought the Flying Fish was good.

Morimoto is opening up a restaurant this year in the Downtown Disney area that looks promising.

We are going again in April and won't be doing meal plan anymore. It just doesn't pay unless you are going to eat ridiculous amounts of food or going to do a lot of character or signature meals.
They have a calculator somewhere online you can find that will compare paying cash vs package for the types of restaurants you will eat at and tell you if it's worth it.
