Cindy's for Lunch or Dinner?

[cathyce2]

How hard is it to get a reservation at Cindy's for lunch or dinner? I've read all about the panic to get breakfast reservations, but we would like to just eat in the castle .... the characters aren't that important.
Is it realistic to hope for a PS 2 weeks out? a month out? do these go as fast as the breakfast ressies?

Thanks for any input.

PS for lunch and dinner at Cindy's are very easy to get since they are not character meals.

We have even done a walk up at CRT for lunch off season. We love lunch in the castle! It is like being a 1000 miles away from the busy parks without even leaving fantisty land. Food was great.

We made our PS for Cindy's lunch about 3 weeks out, but I noticed people were getting in without the PS. We were there the week of 8/25. Although it's not a character meal, Cinderella was in the waiting area (on her throne) signing autograph books and posing for pictures. You might want to request window seating.

We went for dinner. Cinderella was in the waiting area. She also came upstairs several times to wave before going on a break (I assume.)

The food was excellent. My DD and I had the steak which was very good. The salad we ordered with mushrooms and a vinagarette dressing was out of this world! I could of eaten just the salad and been happy! My DD also order a smoothie in the souvenir glass. The smoothie was also excellent. They give you a clean glass all packaged and wrapped for a safe trip home.

We had PS far in advance because we knew we wanted to eat here for dinner.

Somethimes you can just walk up and wait - but on our last visit we tried to make a ressie for the following afternoon and were told that it was all booked. So, we called the dining line from our resort room and were given our choice of seatings (so you may want to call ahead). I always prefer lunch over dinner at Cindy's. I'm a bit picky, so the lunch menu is more to my liking. Also, the prices are much more reasonable for the quality of the food.
