Citrico's after day in park

[100acreHiker]

Hello--

We'll be spending the first part of tomorrow at HS and then shuttling over to MK for part of the evening, then going to dinner at Citricos. We're staying at BWI, so heading back to the resort to change is not an option. We won't be in semi-formal wear. There will be seven of us (five adults, two children ages 12 and 8). The men will be wearing button down short sleeved shirts, but the rest of us will likely just be in capris and t-shirts with nice cardigans--nothing super casual like shorts or tees with writing, but not fancy, either. I do like to dress up, but it's not practical if we will be in two parks for 7 hours preceding dinner. Boys will be in typical boy wear. I know my mother in law lives in Berkenstocks, and I tend to wear sneakers or sandals in the parks. Will we be seated or should I change our reservation?

You will be fine. All Disney Signature restaurants, with the exception of V&A have a resort casual dress code. They are used to folks who like to dress a little for dinner and folks who come from the parks.

Enjoy your dinner and plan some time at the Grand. It is lovely this time of year.

Thank you for the reassurance!

As the PP said, you'll be fine. That being said, my family will often take our dressier clothes with us to the park and put it in a locker. Then after we're finished in the park, we grab the bag, head to a bathroom and change into our nicer clothes for dinner.

You will be seated at any restaurant, other than Victoria and Albert, based on your description. My question is, would you be comfortable. Other than your shoe description I think you will be fine. DH and DS usually were dress shorts, sport shirts with collars and closed toe shoes. I often wear linen capris and a fancy blouse and fancy sandals.
I agree with PP. We usually do freshen up before a Signature dinner, even if it means bringing a backpack to a locker and changing up before dinner. Maybe for your group you may just throw in some footwear for dinner.

You will be fine. You don't need to carry extra clothing or shoes to the parks.

Go! Enjoy, it's one of the best restaurants on property. Some people might dress up a bit, but you're likely to see jeans, shorts, tennis shoes, etc. too. Not a big deal at all.
