My favorite CS in HS is the backlot express. The buffalo nuggets were awesome!
At Epcot my favorite is Sunshine Seasons. Although everything in the World Showcase is pretty good too.

Agreed. Also in DHS, we actually like Pizza Planet, and i'm anxious to try Fairfax Faire. The menu looks good, as it features gourmet hot dogs and bbq pork sandwiches. Just stay away from the ABC Commissary. It is unarguably the worst dining anywhere in WDW.
Sunshine Seasons in Epcot is fantastic, as there is so much variety. But pretty much anywhere in the world showcase (except for the American Pavilion), you can't go wrong.

Next up - January 2023 short trip! We just want to try that 50th Anniversary chocolate monstrosity at Mexico!

My new favorite CS is Katsura Grill in Japan. Yum! We also love Sunshine Seasons, Tangierine Cafe, Yorkshire Fish and Chips and La Cantina de San Angel.
I beg you to skip Electric Umbrella. You can get those offerings pretty much anywhere else in WDW, and there is so much better quality food close by at comparable prices.
As for DHS, we actually like the Backlot Express, and can always find something tasty at Starring Rolls Cafe.
I agree in skipping the ABC Commissary.

My Epcot favorites would be the counter-service restaurants in the Japan and Morrocco Pavilions.

Backstage Express and Starring Rolls are my favorites in DH.
We like the American Pavilion in Epcot, but there is a bakery in Germany that has GREAT cookies!

Also my favorites. Good ones, all. I pretty much avoid eating at DHS, but sometimes Starring Rolls has some sandwich or salad offerings to tide me over until I can get to Epcot.

lotus blossom cafe in china for excellent orange chicken, nachos in germany, fish and chips in the uk, brats in germany...all great spots and i am certain i am forgetting others at the world showcase. we generally stay at bwv or bcv so it is always a treat to just walk into the back entrance for a stroll, a beer and then the family can all eat wherever they choose.
not a big fan of any foods at hollywood.

Nachos in Germany? That ought to be interesting. I need to try those. Just kidding. I know you meant Mexico. But now I'm imagining potato slices covered in sliced wieners and covered in a sour cream sauce? Hm.

Another vote for Tangierine Cafe. It's my favorite counter-service spot in any park. Sunshine Seasons is the best option in Future World.
The restaurants in the Studios are all awful. You don't want to eat there. If you have no other choice, the Backlot Express is passable.

The shrimp fried rice at the Lotus Blossom in China is amazing.
The Backlot Express has some pretty good sandwiches.

As everyone is saying there isnt much in DHS but so much to pick from in Epcot. In Future World we like Sun Shine Season. In WS we like fish and chips in England, sweet and sour chx in China and lots of things in Norway.

.....another nod to Sunshine Seasons in Epcot ....it's got great variety ...and even makes my vegetarian daughter happy (which is very important ...because I've found there's nothing like a hungry-angry 17 yr old vegetarian)
....and now that I come to think of it ....I don't think, that in all 10 WDW trips ...if I've ever has a CS meal in Studios ...unless a turkey leg counts?

As much as I hate to complain, I have to agree. We've had horrendous experiences at CS in HS. We either grab a snack at HS and then eat in another park or we do Prime Time. It's somewhat affordable.
