Frustrated! Which reservations should I go for?

[mickiemouse]

So I have been planning like crazy but I also don't want us to be overwhelmed by dinning reservations. My bf and I are both older and want to do some Disney dinning since we have not done ADR before. So I have been trying to decided which of these are the one's we must do!

'Ohana - Dinner
Hoop Dee Doo - Dinner
Le Cellier - Lunch

We are already doing Chef Mickey (Breakfast), Be Our Guest (Dinner) & Cinderella's Royal Table (Lunch).

Just wondering which one of the other three should we include in our trip before we run out of time to make reservations?

We've always loved O'Hana's but the reviews have been very mixed lately.
Hoop Dee Doo, haven't done but most people seem to love it.
Le Cellier - Had dinner there and one of m favorites. Kids loved it too. Never done lunch

For 2 adults I'd be inclined to go with Le Cellier

Thanks for the advice. I love the idea of character meals etc. but him, not so much. I am already dragging him to CRT. He doesn't seem keen on doing Hoop Dee Doo so I guess we are leaning toward Le Cellier.

'Ohana seems like it has a great atmosphere but it's out of the way and since I don't eat that much I don't want to do too many buffet/family style meals; we're already doing CM.

I just feel like I don't want to miss out on anything since it's the first time we are making dinning reservations. We've been to Disney tons of times but usually just eat through quick service.

Since you already have 3 in and around the Magic Kingdom, I'd go for another park anyway. There's always Chefs de France, Garden Grill, Teppan Edo and Via Napoli to name a few. We have eaten at all the restaurants and have not been disappointed yet. We personally love Coral Reef, but it gets mixed reviews. We have never had a bad meal or experience there, though!
You've made great choices, by the way. Try for the Tomorrowland Terrace Dessert party on one of your MK nights. I have not done it yet (going this December) but I can't wait! Everyone seems to love it!

I have never done Coral Reef but it looks interesting. I am worried that some of the reviews claim the service isn't up to par. I love aquariums so it might be fun just to go and see the restaurant itself.

How about La Hacienda de San Angel or Garden Grill? Any thoughts? Which is better. I was thinking La Hacienda around 7:45pm would be great for the Fireworks but I also love Chip & Dale. xD

We just ate at La Hacienda last week. We thought the food was very good! We had a 7:45 reservation, were able to get a table by the window which was fantastic. I plan on going back here on my next trip. The only thing is you won't know for sure if you'll get a window seat till you arrive.
