I had to cancel my trip this weekend, and reschedule it for the February holiday. I basically 'copy and pasted' my schedule, which puts us at HS on Sunday, February 14th. I just went to book a table service lunch, and there was not ONE reservation from any restaurant at ALL, in that park. Am I going to be hit with worst crowds ever? And yes, I'm aware that HS is the most popular park at the moment, I am asking relative to how crowds are now, on weekends, in that park. And yes, I did already reserve a park pass for that day which was no problem.
 
President's Day weekend will see increased guests (as per usual,) but just keep checking for availabilities.
 
Most likely crowds will be similar to this holiday weekend, but with capacity restrictions dining reservations go very fast. Just keep checking or use Touring Plans or MouseWatchers reservation finders.
 
The limited hours and available TS dining are a real problem right now. We are just back from a 10 day stay and we heard it continually while we were waiting to be seated. Walk ups are being turned away or told to wait until the end of the night typically 8:00pm-9:00pm and the restaurant would try and seat them.
 

Yes, I am seeing that for this particular holiday weekend. There are no TS reservations available for Saturday night at EPCOT, and none for lunch at HS on the 14th, Sunday.
That is sad. And frustrating.
 
My wife and I are going to WDW for several days arriving Feb 13. We are staying at the Yacht club. I too, noticed the significant lack of dining options while trying to book. We always like to end up at Epcot in the afternoon/evening, but I’m also concerned, despite having Park Hopper passes, we might not be able to get in Epcot in the afternoon. We might just do Animal Kingdom early on the 14th and then hit the Mall at Millenia (wife’s favorite shopping mall lol). Then hopefully get back in Epcot. Just keep checking the app, hopefully something will open up for you.

Considering the massive amount of absolutely open guest space at Epcot, I'd not worry too much about not being able to hop in.
(That's not to say that you would be able to actually DO specific things.)
 
One thing I notice is I can sometimes find reservations if I play with the number of people in my party. I just looked on the 14th and found a 7:55 at 50's Prime Time for 5 or 6 ppl but that reservation didn't come up for me if I put in 4 people. Definitely play around with the party size and then you can adjust it later by calling or I've heard they don't charge you as long as one person from the party reservation shows up.
 
I also have a park reservation for February 14. I will not be eating indoors during my trip, so I do not need a reservation.
