We are glad we went only because we have to try anything new at the Park.

Like you said, the CMs at Celebration Ranch and Barbecue probably did not know how to handle big crowds, let alone an overflow of guests.
I have dined there twice already and greatly enjoyed the entire experience, pretty good food, fun character interactions, continuous stage entertainment, and the talented singers/musicians each time. Because the place was practically empty on both visits, we also had great service and full attention from the servers.
The only complaint was the shifting sun, so we sat on one side of the partially-shaded benches for the first half of the meal, and then moved across to the other side of the benches for shade when the afternoon sun shifted and the direct heat become unbearable.
Otherwise, I think Celebration Ranch and Barbecue is a good value for character/entertainment dining for special occasions or a different experience.
Of course, I would prefer if the price was lower, but think it's priced fairly with other character-dining spots.
