ADRs

[explorer06]

Hello! Just wondering if I should be making advanced dining reservations for all table service meals for my upcoming trip at WDW? I've made them for character dining but not for 'tradional' restaurants. Should I be? Is it difficult to get in for instance at the sit down restaurants in the country pavilions at Epcot?

I see your sig that your going in August.. so am I! and I just finished my ADRS a month ago and it wasnt easy. So I think you should start making some ADRS now!! You might still be lucky enough to get the restaurants you want and the times too! good luck!!

Yes, make ADR's for all table service meals!

If there are places that you definately want to eat, then ADR's are a must. I would probably start making them about a month in advance of the actual trip.

Definately!

I would definitely make ADRs for all the table service meals I wanted. With the popularity of the dining plan, table service restaurants are filling up much more than they used to. I wouldn't want to spend a lot of my vacation time trying to find a restaurant where I could get in to eat, and unfortunately that is what we are seeing reported very often from those who have gone without ADRs.

OT - sleepycor - The picture in your signature is absolutely beautiful. Do you mind if I ask where it was taken?

Definitely make your ADRs as quickly as you can. Disney's Dining Plan has changed the easy going nature of some of us and we can no longer just wait and decide our dinner plans based on our mood that day. Take what seems reasonable now and at least you will have something to go with for your trip.

Please make your ADRs before travelling, especially if you want to eat at the more popular places and/or at the more popular times. Our last trip was December, and I cannot tell you how many nights we saw people being turned away because the restaurant was full. I saw this at LeCellier, Chefs de France, Narcoossee's, Tony's Town Square, and Teppanyaki. We had ADRs each night of that trip except for two and we ended up eating pizza one of those and we were able to get in at 5:00 for dinner at Oliva's. We swore we would have ADRs for each night of the trip this year.
