50's Prime Time..large party

[supersuperwendy]

Does anyone know how 50's Prime Time handles large parties? There will be 11 of us. Do they have tables that large or will we be seated separately?

I've only been there 3 times so I'm farrr from an expert but I think the largest group I've ever seen was 8 at a table. If memory serves, there's one spot that could work where the seats are like..well let's see if I can do this and make sense

With the X's as seats, the parenthesis as tables and the lines are wall. It's right near the entrance to the kitchen. The x's across the wall are technically booths, like a banquette. There's probably other places that have a similiar set up. Depending on the time of year and time of day, the likelyhood of those tables being empty at the same time and the same time as you're there is probably not very high. They may also put you all in the same "kitchen" area, but at different tables.

Ok my little diagram didn't really work..so disregard the "walls". They exist in real life, but obviously not quite like how I have them drawn.

Maybe you could all be sat in a "section". There are areas that have multiple tables in them. My DH and I were once seated at a table in one, but everyone else in the section at all the tables were from the same group.

I think it would be good to call versus trying to make them online and see what they say. Good Luck!

I think maybe we'll wait until our 2013 visit when it's just the 6 of us to try it. I'll look into another option for June.

Thanks everyone!

We were there last week and we saw a table of 7 or 8 be split up and not even put in the same room. One of the family members was very irritated and was saying she wasn't asking to sit together, but just to be in the same room of the restaurant where they could see each other. Didn't happen. Felt sorry for them. They were at opposite ends of the restaurant. The kids were going back and forth the whole time. What was irritating was that there was no reason the other group could not have been put in the same room. We were seated at a table pretty close to one of the families within 5 minutes or less after they were seated, so they very easily could have put us in the other room and given one of the families the table where they seated us. There was also a table next to us that emptied right after we were seated (I'm talking close enough that I was talking to the ladies who were seated there), so really they could have been seated right next to each other.

We have sat at table with 12 people total. Though we had an ADR, it took an hour past our ADR to get seated.

How about Tutto Italia? We were thinking instead of eating at DHS, taking a swim break then going over to Epcot for dinner. Does Tutto Italia have room for large parties?

I just made a reservation for nine people and didn't have a problem. Even with that large of a party, they might seat us at two separate tables but going on past experience, we will all be together somehow. I've have several large parties at various places and we've always been at least right next to each other.

I've been to 50's PTC a few times and noticed large parties seated together each time. Maybe it's the luck of the draw, but it appears larger parties can be seated together.

That's one ADR I think would be really hard to sit a large group. The restaurant is set up in sections like a kitchen with tables for various seatings. Most of those tables are for 2, 4 6 seats only.

I would try for another time/smaller group. My 2 experiences there were both FUN ( the 2nd time exceptionally)
