Dining Reservations - should I call or make them online or both?

[jdearman77]

I tried to get Ohana char dinner or b-fast, from Jan 27-feb 3, but to no avail using the online system.

Should I call as well? Or will it be a waste of time?

Also should I check back the week of my trip and see if anything opened up?

I always book online. Keep checking back people do cancel.

How desperately do you want to eat there?

'Ohana is probably the most popular restaurant at the moment and books up quickly. People have been booking for those days since last July. If you really want to eat there check on line multiple times a day and be flexible about the time and date.

You aren't going to get any better chances calling. I would just check back daily online for 'Ohana. People cancel all the time, espceially now that you have to use a credit card to hold some reservations.

Calling the dining number is automated so honestly just book online. That way you can see what you're options are versus having to listen for the open times.

I would keep trying online and be flexible for your times/days/which meal. Many people make dining reservation months in advance but that doesn't mean you won't get in. Maybe as the dates get closer someone will realize they would like to change their plans. Good luck!

Keep trying online...and be persistant as well as flexible. While some people couldn't be bothered, I've been known to stalk the website- checking over 100x in a day if I really want an ADR for something...and it's worked for pretty much everything- including 'Ohana...multiple times. Good luck!
