Coral Reef personalized menu?

[Tomh]

Does Coral Reef still do the personalized menus? And, if so, how do I go about getting them? I think DD14, and DS5 would be thrilled with them.

I'd like to know too! We're eating there our last night and celebrating my dad's 62nd bday

Coral Reef stopped offering personalized menus as of January 1, 2009.

And the divers with the personalized signs too.

That's too bad. We had them both done last year. It was so awesome! I knew it would eventually have to come to an end, but I would be willing to pay a fee for the services.

Well, that is sad news, but thanks for the answer.

1) ANY table service restaurant can do personalized menus.
2) This includes Coral Reef.
3) They don't do photos, but they can add messages.
. . . happy birthday
. . . happy anniversary
. . . etc
4) Ask at the podium.
5) If the CM feels like it, you can get one.
6) However, they do not have to do it, so be nice when you ask.
7) All they can do is say no.

NOTE: Coral Reef stopped divers and the elaborate special menus because sit became such a chore. Due to the Internet, people were calling and taking all the work time of the divers and podium CM's. THe divers couldn't get their regular work done and the hostess was away from her duties too much. What was a nice treat became a chore. Now, like other eateries, Coral Reef will only do special occasions like birthdays and anniversaries. And, they add the wish, but not photos and other such clip art that guests used to send in. In other words, our own greed killed a good thing.

I can certainly understand how overwhelming that must have become, considering how many people visit WDW every day, and how many of them use the internet to find information. Still, it's a bummer for us, but understandable, and certainly there are plenty of other things to enjoy in the World.

I am really glad we got chance to do the menu and the diver on our May 2008 trip. It was a special trip....our Neice, 7 and Nephew, 10 were with us and I surprised them with the menu and the diver had a sign with their names....

it was just a fantastic moment....and my DSis and her DH were shocked that I was able to do this with nobody in the know.
