You can make your dining reservations by calling 407-WDW-DINE. Reservations can be made 180 days prior to your arrival date. Disney is now strongly recommending people make reservations for meals due to the popularity of the DDP. Everyone here will definitely tell you to make your ADR's.

Good Luck !

Make you Advance Dining Reservations (ADRs) ahead of time. Especially if you are wanting any character meals and / or any Table Service (TS) meals in the Parks. These reservations fill up fast and when they are gone, you cannot get in unless someone cancels.

You can always call back and change your ADRs. A lot of people do that. It is hard sometimes to plan every meal 180 + days out. But, w/ a base plan, you can change around what you already have.

Good luck.

Definately make them before you leave!! You could get down there and all the restaurants could be filled up, especially if you're going at a busy time. We always over book, and we can always cancel one or two if we get down there and change our mind.

There is also a toll free number 1-800-828-0228. Definitely make your ressies ahead of time. Just returned on May 4th and saw lots of people being turned away, even at lunch.
