I can only speak for Big River Grille but I believe we waited for about 30 minutes in October when we went. I believe we arrived there by 6 so the wait wasn't too bad. The good thing is because it's on the Boardwalk the time goes pretty quickly.
Assuming there is no major sporting event scheduled to take place then you should have no problems getting a table at the ESPN Club.
As for Big River Grille & Brewing Works when I had dinner there this past December it was between 8:30 PM - 9:00 PM and there wasn't a wait to get in, so that was my experience.
Big River Grille is great! The menu is a lot more versatile than at ESPN Club and the microbrews are delicious.
As for the wait, we've been multiple times and never had any problem getting a table (though we aren't a prime-time eating group - we usually are there before 6pm or after 8:30pm).
But PP is right - you can call them directly to schedule a reservation.
