California Grill of Ohana

Need help in deciding which of these restaurants to book for dinner. I believe that you can view the fireworks from both - which would give the best view?? Just me and hubby so menue's are not a problem.

Also i believe i read somewhere that you can walk along the beach from Polynesian to Grand Floridian - is that correct? We are staying off site so would we be given a 3 hour parking limit in the hotel carparks if we have dinner reservations??

Would love to do both but dont think we will have enough time!!

The California Grill is the better choice, whether it's the view or the food. As far as the walk along the beach, I can't help you there. A few years back, it was impossible to do so, but maybe things have changed. Enjoy!

I would choose CG as well- food is just better IMO. Esp if I didn't have kids with me. Ohana is just so noisy.

Thanks ....CG it is then.
Do you think i should wait untill the March hours are out or if i book a table for around 6.45 do you think i would catch Wishes then??? looking at previous March hours wishes ranges between 7 and 9!!

I would book an ADR as soon as you can. I like to book an early ADR. If that works to see the fireworks, great. If not, you can leave and return to view the fireworks on the observatin deck.

Our last visit we booked early to see the sun going down. We then left, took a ride on the monorial and visited the lounges at the Poly and GF. We returned and with our receipt we were let back up. We got a drink at the lounge in the CA Grill, took it outside and watched the fireworks on the deck. It was perfect!
