Adding to reservation at O'hana

[Bundysae]

I'm new so forgive me...
We have an O'hana reservation for 12 people in August. We now have an additional child to add to our reservation. I've been calling to see if anything has opened up, and will continue to do so, but does anyone have any additional information that might help.
Is there a website available to view any openings?
Will they turn us away if we show with people without changing the reservation?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

You will just have to keep calling. Some restaurants may seat you with extra people, but 'Ohana isn't one of them.

I don't think you can check online with such a large party.

With a that big of a party, calling is your best bet.

You can look online for a reservation for 1 or even 2 close to or the same time as your present ADR is set for.

I still plan on calling non stop to check, but where would I look online for such reservations?

Nevermind, I found it.
Thanks for the input though.

I actually wouldn't. This works for restaurants where you seat yourself, but if you book a separate ADR for two, they will most likely be seated separately because they won't have the table blocked for 13.

Touring Plans has a free ADR finder. It will send you a text message if it finds what you need. Aside from that, just keep checking MDE for something to open up. I wouldn't show up to Ohana with an extra person though.

This really only works for places that are "seat yourself" like BOG. There is little chance of having everyone sat together on separate reservations. Unless the extra person doesn't mind sitting alone.

Im sure they dont have a table just for 1, most tables are for at least 2. Add to that a party as large as 12 i again dont think they have one table large enough for that entire party and will likely have to push a couple of tables together. All speculation though as I dont know the seating of 'Ohana or how they sit such large parties.
