My boyfriend and I are going in July and got the "standard" dining plan, which is one quick service, one table service, and one snack per night. We did it for two reasons: a. less stress and b. we wanted to eat at some of the pricier restaurants, so it was actually cheaper to get the dining plan ($40 per person, per night) than to pay as we went. We ended up making dinner reservations at Le Cellier, Coral Reef, and Cinderella's Royal Table(!!!!)
I honestly think it depends on the individual family and what you want to do on your vacation. I can see scenarios where the dining plan would be a good idea, and others where it wouldn't. I do, however, second that you should make reservations ASAP. We made ours last weekend, and had to compromise on times for both Le Cellier and Coral Reef, and got THE LAST reservation for Cinderella's Table for that week. We weren't aware how cutthroat dining at Disney had become until our AAA agent told us.
