Do these restaurants accept TiW? Particularly, Garden Grill?

[NorweJenNY]

I just got off the phone a few minutes ago with a CM on the Disney Dining line while updating some ADR plans, and I don't know why I asked because I thought it was on the TiW list, but I asked her to verify that Garden Grill accepts TiW.

The CM said that Garden Grill does NOT accept TiW, which totally shocked me.

I do see it on several different online lists. Did something just recently change, or did this CM just gve me erroneous information?

While I'm asking this, I just want to check these other restaurants in case someone has some new info...

Cape May Cafe
Chef Mickey's
Chefs de France
Crystal Palace (My TiW was accepted here in Dec.)
Liberty Tree (My TiW was accepted here in Dec also.)
Tony's Town Square

I hope to be using my card at these locations this coming April & May.

And I'm pretty sure that Yak & Yeti does not accept TiW, but just in case that has changed, could someone let me know?

Thanks for your help!

Thanks, Cheshire... I take it that's a pretty official list coming from you.

These wouldn't be able to change part way through 2010, would they? (This is my paranoia talking.)

 

[Dizzymrslizzy]

We used TiW for Chefs in Sept/Oct for Baby's meal didn't we?

 

[DOPEYLUVER]

Why do you think Teppan Edo isn't on the list? I'm sure there are others as well, but that is the only place I have reservations for that isn't included.

I think you're right.

Tokyo Dining was not included either until this year. Mitsukoshi runs both restaurants and it is ultimately their decision, not Disney's.

Perhaps Teppan Edo will be added in the future if TiW works out favorably at Tokyo Dining.

They withhold the right to change anything on that list, at any time, without notice. That said, as far as I can recall they have never removed a restaurant from the TIW list. They have added some, but have not removed any. They never even removed the CS restaurants from SSR and AK when those two places opened TS restaurants.

Unfortunately you cannot take any information you are given on WDW-DINE as gospel. They are wrong more often than they are right. I use them only to make restaurant reservations becuase I do not trust WDW-DINE to accurately answer specific questions about the restaurants or TIW. If you want someone who knows about TIW, they have a direct phone number for that program somewhere. There was just a report from somebody on the boards that WDW-DINE said they could use TIW at Whispering Canyon if they booked dinner at 4:30 but not if they booked it at 5:30, or some such thing. That was just crazy.

I'm relatively certain Mitsukoshi no longer runs Teppan Edo or Tokyo Dining, I think they went under new management a couple of years ago. I'm sort of surprised they gave in on Tokyo Dining but not Teppan Edo.

Thank you for the info, Nala.
