Majora's Mask wins hands down as the best sidequest LoZ game. Period. It has way more side/prerequisite things to do than actual dungeon + bossing. MM has great dungeons, don't get wrong. However, it has four... Are you serious? :/ It was just far too little for me. But it's an absolutely amazing game and probably has more memorable scenes and characters than any other.
Wind Waker's dungeons/temples + bosses are far too easy. I know LoZ games definitely aren't known for having difficult bosses, but come on... WW's are platypi. I like when at least one dungeon/temple/boss can give me a "FFFFFFFFFF WHAT DO I DO?" moment. WW just didn't do that for me. I prefer the traditional graphics, but I don't understand why everyone hated on WW's so much. They are beautiful and worked very, very well with LoZ. I had no problems with them. The biggest thing I disliked about WW was that it didn't have the EPIC boss name appear before the battle started. It felt empty and gay and stupid. WTH? I'm serious. Nothing made me rage more about WW than that. All of that being said, though, I loved WW just as much as any other LoZ, and it gave me many great and enjoyable times.
Twilight Princess was a little too bogged down by the whole Wolf deal, but it's not so bad. TP's flaws are vastly outweighed by its HECK YES's. Being an uber sexy adult Link the entire game is godly win. The graphics are what I've been waiting for since OoT came out. All of the random fun things in the game are simply frickin' amazing (boating down a raging river? navigating a dangerous ravine on a dragon-like creature? racing against a giant Yeti on a slab of ice? HECK YES). And let's not forget the insanely epic boss battles. They haven't been this good since OoT. Sadly, though, they suffer from WW-syndrome and are seemingly easier than they used to be. :/ TP has amazing dungeons/temples, which made me insanely happy. Also, BALL AND CHAIN. No more needs to be said.
I haven't played a LoZ game that I didn't fall completely in love with, honestly. I could say a great number of bad things and good things about each and every one that I've played. Some shine more than others in certain aspects, but none of them have been bad - by any means.
