Anyone Else Having Trouble With CRT For Dinner?

[scoutsmom99]

I just got off the phone with Disney Dining and I had no luck adding Dinner at CRT for my trip in Sept/Oct. They must not have many tables that seat two in the restaurant (It has been almost 6 years since I have been there). I wonder if they will have more seatings closer to my trip dates? The girl who was helping me said she was suprised that there were no dinner ressies open (I made the poor girl check like 6 nights!). I guess if I don't get it I will be calling for dinner exactly 90 days out for my January trip!

We were told to call and check 45 days out as that will be when they are likely to add some times and open up more seating. This specifically applies to tables for two people. It did the trick for me, I had my pick of several evenings.

I called 90 days out, in the afternoon for dinner at CRT for our 7th wedding anniversary on October 17th. There were only two times left: 4:30 and 5:05 pm!! I didn't think the dinner was that popular!

I called last week to book dinner at CRT for 2 on 10/18 and the only option we were given was 4:00. They said that the latest the were taking reservations for that day was 5:30. I might try again once the park hours for October come out or even a little closer to the trip.

Called 90 days for Sept 30 and the only time available for my party of 6 was at 4:45pm. Maybe because it's on the Halloween party day, but I'm not liking that time. So... I'll try calling a little bit closer to the date.

Well, count me in............ I'm counting down the "months" LOL until my 90 day point to call. I really want to eat there for dinner, as I've never been. I don't think my ds would go for the breakfast, he's at that age where "princesses" aren't a popular thing..........

I had asked this on another thread, but got no answer, I know for the breakfast they require a deposit for cindy's, but what about dinner???

Thanks

Maybe that's true about them adding more availability at 45 days. That would explain why I just called last week for CRT dinner on 8/25. I don't know what else was available, but I asked if there was anything around 6:00-6:15, and she gave me 6:00. I was so happy to get it!

We are able to get a 5:30p reservation for October 2nd. We were told the last seating for that night was 5:45p because of MNSSHP.

We have a reservation for dinner on August 16. I made the reservation around 80 days in advance and the latest I could get was 5:35. When I checked about 45 days out, I still couldn't change it. Last week, at about 3-1/2 weeks out I tried again and was told they had "several" times open, so I changed the time to 6:30. This is for a table for 5, which I've read is more difficult to get.

No, they don't require a deposit for CRT dinner.

Fall-out from the "Free" MYW Dining Deal...hope this isn't the new standard. Nope, we didn't need to make a deposit, just our hotel info. But, make sure you allow time to linger in the waiting area. You might get lucky & Cinderella will appear. Good Luck.

I haven't had any luck either

When I called in the last week for a party of 2 for either lunch or dinner, I was told they had no more tables for 2 available- only 3's and 4's. (This is a last minute trip, so that's why I couldn't call sooner). I'm actually surprised they had anything left at all.

I got both of my ressies for September. I called 90 days exactly for each and got one for a group of 9 and one for a group of 8 on different days. Got the last seating for both, 5:45PM. Many of us in our group are on the dining plan so we figured we would eat there 2 times on that trip since it's not someplace we usually eat. Dinner seatings start at 4:00PM and the last one is 5:45PM, so that's why the PS go quickly. I do plan to call later to try to get later times.

I just called yesterday for CRT dinner for August 22, and I got it and the time, 7pm!!

Thanks for all of the replies!

Thanks I will have to try calling again closer to my dates...hopefully, some PD will be sprinkled on me when I call.

Is that just on MNSSHP nights or is that standrad? Last time I ate there I remember we ate later than that, but I could be wrong.

Does anyone know if they require a deposit for the CRT Dinner?? I know that they do for the breakfast - just not sure about dinner. Also, if they do, how much is it?? Thanks

No Deposit is required for dinner.

I called last week for next week, and got 6:55 pm., which is exactly what we wanted.

No problem booking dinner at CRT but it is impossible to book breakfast. I was only able to get lunch & dinner reservations and took what I could get even though I would really like to do breakfast there (October 3-13) As far as booking for a table of 2 - I read that there are not many 2 tables there and it suggested to try and book a table of 4 - they will seat walkups party of 2 at a 4 but will not book it in the computer. I am booking a party of 8 at all reservations as that is the group size but I do plan on not all of us being at every meal - so I plan on telling the host/hostess when I get to restaurant that there are only 5/6/8 of us - So I can't think it would be too big of an issue if you make a reservation for 4 and show up as a 2. Good luck and wish me luck too! All my others PS have gone great but just can't get that breakfast.

I tried booking a table for 2 in October (about 88 days out) and couldn't get it. I may try back when hours come out.
