House of Blues

[cindykelley]

We're planning on going to the House of Blues to eat on Saturday, November 27. Is it going to be packed? We are flying in that day (arriving about 12:30 p.m.) and we're not real sure when we'll actually be arriving at the resort. We feel like we'll need reservations, but aren't sure what time.

What do ya'll think? Is it taking too big of a chance not making a reservation? There's only 4 of us.

We went on a Saturday night with 3 of us early Oct. I called for reservations and wasn't able to get any until 9 because they said they were so busy. We walked in around 7:30 because we were too hungry to wait any longer and only waited 10 minutes to be seated.

We have never had to use our ADR's for HOB. But we have always made them just incase. And yes, you can make ADR's through Disney Dining. There is nothing really significant happening that night other than a concert in the concert hall. It's all playing by ear. If you arrive before your ADR take a feel by looking around or just going inside and asking if you can be seated beforehand. If you can't there are plenty of shops near the restaurant.

On Labor Day it poured, so I called about getting ADR. Was told they were booked. I thought no way. We drove over DD17 got out to run and ask if they had availability. They said yes we do. Walked in, got seated right away, it was only about 40% full. They
might have lost out in
other diners because of Disney Dining saying they were booked up. We really enjoyed our meal.

Hey OP make sure to buy the $25 gift certificate from Restaurant.com. Usually you can get it for $2. Just wait for the sale code. Even though waiter was guaranteed a 18% tip he was very attentive.

We bought two of those when they were just 1$. We usually spend about 75 bucks between three people. We were informed by someone who did this earlier that if you did separate checks, and paid with different cards, you could get by the rules of one per table per month. This will be easy to do since we have four adults in our party.

There is a pin out right now for 40% off - Use coupon code BRIDAL - I do not know when this expires but it was in a bridal magazine that I purchased recently.

We have been to lunch many times, especially on the weekends (day we leave) and it is never busy but at dinner time they are packed

the evenings are always busier than lunch time. also when they have a concert at the attached hob venue the restaurant is busy. i've never had a problem getting in at lunch time. i'd keep my adr as a precaution as you're going that close to thanksgiving but you'll probably be fine.
