We ate there many times this last summer. Around 2 it really dies down. Most days we would go to the parks until 12 or 1. Then we would ride the bus back to BCV, or boat back from MGM, or walk back from Epcot and past B&C. Put in our name and my wife and daughters would go change into swimsuits. Then they would come back and I would go get my swimsuit. By this time we had been buzzed that our table was ready. The wait time was 20 to 30 minutes. We would eat then go swimming. My wife even knew what I wanted in case I didn't get back in time to be seated with them. That only happened once. It is crowded but by 2 when we were finishing our meal there were always seats avaliable. At night, especially right after Illuminations, it is very busy, but boy is it worth the wait - No Way Jose! YUUUUMMMM!
