Can we get to dining area in CRT?

[princess mom of 4]

I posed this question on the Dining board, and didn't get an answer there...
I have read before that you get called to come "up to the dining area" in Cinderella's Royal Table...Is the area wheelchair accessible? elevator? ramp? I would appreciate any info, or especially pictures...we have a trip planned in Dec. and would like to do CRT for the first time if accessible!

I am pretty sure it is an elevator.

Not a very big elevator, but it works.
The seating area upstairs has 2 levels; the lower level is about one step below where the elevator delivers you. So, when you make your reservation and when you check in make sure they know you have a wheelchair in your party.
Also, the only accessible restroom in on the ground floor.

We were just there for lunch in January. The elevator is small but held my DH's average sized power chair & myself with a CM. A very large section of the dining room is accessible. I do have to tell you, supposedly due to DH's need for accessible area, we waited for about 45 minutes after finishing the picture taking downstairs before being called up. And the CM's downstairs were not very helpful & some were downright rude. We had informed them of our need when making the ADR & upon checking in.

However, once in the dining room everything was wonderful! The room is very spacious. We enjoyed the food & the whole experience upstairs.

I have a review with pics of this meal here:
