Any hope for CRT or 1900 in December?

[jsphotography]

We just decided last minute to book a trip for December 13-17 (2 adult and 1 kid) and last time we were there my now 6 year old LOVED both CRT and 1900 dinner, but of course since its so last minute both locations don't have any availability the whole week :0( We've only been that one time before and I had no issue getting reservations anywhere even though it was free dining.. le cellier, crt, akershus, 1900, chef mickeys.. but now i says they're all booked! id idn't think that was a super popular week since everyone would go the following week for christmas :0( any chance you think either of those would pop up in the next month?

i do remember last time we were there they sat the three of us at a HUGE table made for 8, while 4 of our family friends enjoyed the park instead of joining us for breakfast. Has anyone had any luck just walking up to CRT and getting a table? especially since its just 3 of us? thanks for any tips! :0)

You still have a little over a month. I would search for availability online multiple times each day leading up to your trip. You can also chk the thread for cxld December ADRs. A lot of people are willing to coordinate the cancelation so you can get it...or at least improve your odds. Lot's of people also cancel their lodging and ADRs when room only full payment is required (5days or a week out- I can't remember)- so this is a great time to snag a last minute ressie. CRT also has a 2 day cancellation policy- so I'd check every day during the course of your trip...the concierge might even be able to help you with this. If all of this fails- you can always try a walk up. I've heard that walk up odds are better at 1900 Park Fare, but it can't hurt to try both. Good luck!

We have walked-up 3 times to CRT and got in at LUNCH (after 1:00). Only 2 of us though. Once was at Xmas time and also in Sept. In Sept. we were seated at a table for 4. Try lunch you may luck-up.
Don't know about 1900. Only eaten there once and had a ressie.

keep trying. we've gotten adr's before by just trying over and over again at different times. the worst that can happen is your left trying to do a walk up.

On October 30 I was able to score a table for 2 at CRT for Dec 5 at 4pm, but I think Dec 13-17 is free food week, so good luck with that.
