Favorite table service meals that are "easier" to reserve?

[Gentry2004]

We don't need (or want) AYCTE or Character dining. We love Sanaa and go pretty much every trip. Other than that we don't have any must do's and end up eating a lot of quick service, which frankly is usually pretty good.

Any suggestions for table service places you like, maybe that are a little under the radar?

We had quick going to Mama Melrose's several years ago due to quality and service issues. We went on a last minute trip in May and decided to give it a go again. Plus it was easy to get day of reservation and surprisingly it was a good meal. The service was quick and efficient and the food was very respectable.

I second Mama Melrose-we get the steak with cherry chocolate torte for dessert

We love Spice Road Tables in Epcot. Walk up only, inside and outside service, small plates. We also like HBD Lounge in HS, outside small plates. The Fountain in the Dolphin is pretty good and they don't require reservations. I've had pretty good luck getting last minute ADRs at the France TS in Epcot. We pretty much just look to see what is available day of while walking around the parks and go from there.

Ale and Compass at The Yacht Club is one of my favorites. They are open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, so if you are looking for a mid-day break from Epcot or HS, this is a good option.

Shula’s is excellent and usually has availability. Same with Tiffins.

I've always enjoyed Grand Floridian Cafe during the day. With the sunlight coming in, it's lovely. And the food and service have always been excellent.

Three Bridges at Coronado Springs has join walk up list option . It was our favorite meal this trip . The corn dip was so delicious! The ahi tuna poke bowl was the best thing we ate all trip . It is instead of the salmon poke bowl . The server said they replaced it with ahi tuna . We can’t wait to go back for it !

Don’t forget the churros !!

Since when was Spice Road Table walk ups only?
We've always done ADR there, as recent as Memorial Day
Granted we don't do them more than a day in advance but not ever walk up

Tiffin's has gotten harder to find we've found. Typically we can get it at least once a trip but it's not plentiful like it once was. Folks have gotten wise to it

Flying Fish, Trattoria Al Forno, and Citricos.

Tiffins is an excellent choice!

 

[Mrs.AMC]

Because we always wait and do our ADR about 24 hours in advance we find that pretty much everything is easy to reserve. Folks book loads of ADR and dump them 24 hours out. So we look the day before and find pretty much anything we want.

 

[SleeplessInTO]

Toledo and Ale & Compass
La Creperie is also nice when you want to dine indoors and have a sweet tooth.

With Kona Cafe closed we may try this.
