^%$#@*(!% out of luck?

[michvin]

Okay, just made ressies today for a quick 3 nite at Sports (never stayed there before but that's another thread....

There is five of us, 2 adults, 3 kids ages , 5, and 2. So I am getting the free dining from 8/20 to 8/23...do ya think I have a shot at ANYTHING? Going to make ressies tomorrow as soon as I can (fyi..i am on vacation now at the beach so my husband thinks that I have a problem being on vacation making plans for another vacation )

Just wanted to know if I am totally totally you know what....especially cause there is five of us.

Two weeks ago I booked by ADRs for 8/27 to 9/1 and got all my restaurants, you can't be really picky about times though. This was for 3 + baby

All depends on your choices. I am interested to hear how you do.

I have been changing my adrs around for the week before that, and I have had no problems. There are only two in my group though. I am not sure if that will make a difference.

Today I was able to change my ADR's (adding an 11th person) to 2 meals in August (20 and 21). Chef Mickey's at 8 something, and Crystal Palace at 11:30. The Chef Mickey's was the best, we went from 2 tables of 5, to a table that accomodates all 11!

The rest of our meals will be in smaller groups.

I hope you're as lucky as we were!

if you're not too picky about times, you should be fine i would think. Just have some backup ideas just in case your first choices are booked.

All depends on your choices. I am interested to hear how you do.

to remember to post how I do tomorrow. Nothing big planned though like princess things...would like to get Crystal palace for breakfast on our one park day but if we don't then we will work on something else. I figure it will be our time to try some new places at the resorts that we haven't tried before. Wish me luck...

We just planned our trip last week for July 4-10 and have been making our reservations over the last couple of days. So far we have had pretty good luck...we have managed to get

L'Originale Alfredo di Roma
Sci-Fi Dine-In
Hoop-Dee-Doo
Restaurantosaurus
Hollywood & Vine

...and in the morning we are calling to get Liberty Tree Tavern and 50's Prime Time Cafe. Hopefully we can get in those as well. We have been very flexible on the time and basically taken what they offered. One night we are eating close to 9:00 pm...but I am just glad to get something!!

Last week I made ressies for our trip in December and had a hard time getting ressies for Le Cellier for 5 people. I got them, just not when I was wanting them. I wish you good luck, and send you some pixie dust.

Hope it goes well for you!

We're going 9/25 to 9/29 and are having some trouble. We couldn't get LeCelliar at all for dinner at any time of the week, had to settle for lunch....and there are only 2 of us. Haven't heard back on Yachtsmans from our Dreams agent yet so hopefully she can get us a decent time for that one. O'Hana we were able to get an early 5:10 which is perfect as we requested 5:00.

 

[HACAM]

We are going a little later than you are, but I just changed around a couple of our ADR's and had no problem at all. Friends of ours who are going with us are having no luck at all. They tried for Le Cellier for any of the 5 days we are there and they had not luck at all, all booked up!

So, they are also not having much luck with getting a ressie for the Concourse steak house....so I guess it just depends on what restaurant and what time etc.

Good Luck!

We're going 8/15 - 8/22 and I made some ADR's this past Saturday for 6 people. I had my choice of times for Chef Mickey's for breakfast (wanted dinner but they didn't have anything until 9), Princess Storybook lunch was wide open, got Crystal Palace for dinner and Sci-Fi for lunch. Added a person to our ADR at O'hana's and it was no problem. I tried to add a couple of people to our ADR at Le Cellier, but they had nothing. I also tried to add a person to HDDR on our Saturday night there, but couldn't do it. They had availability for Sunday night though. All in all, I'm pretty happy with our ADR's.

Good luck!

I called 10 days ago and got all of the ADR's I wanted for 8/27-9/3. I did have to switch some days around to get the time slots I wanted, and had to take a LeCellier lunch instead of dinner, but overall, I was thrilled at what I was able to get.

 

[bluejasmine]

Sending some for you to get some ADR that work for you..

Okay, so I called on Wednesday morning around 9:30 am est and we got Crystal Palace for 12:55 lunch, which is good because we don't want to leave MK on our only day at the parks. We couldn't get Chef Mickey's or Spoodles before 8pm and with 3 kids under 7 we don't eat after 6:30....don't like the kids being evil at dinner...

So, on our non-park day we got Boma for breakfast, which we've never done so pretty happy with that , oh at 8:30 am and then Kona Cafe for dinner at 6:30 although DH isn't all that impressed with the menu for the kids (neither am I) but Poly is cool to walk around. We may switch to the Trails End Buffet place just to have somewhere cool to take the kids, but I'm not sure. Crystal Palace was our realy worry and I couldn't believe it was wide open for lunch. Maybe it won't be a really busy park day!

My kids LOVE Kona for the dessert--they barely eat any of the dinner just to get to the dessert.

Check the food porn thread--I know they had a picture of the cotton candy cone that you can get. And you get the lava cake.
