how to get a le cellier reservation

[Tiggeroo]

We are going the August 24th to the 30th. Tried and couldn't get any seating. Should I keep trying back? When is the best time to try? Right now I have one day open but I"d switch or give something else up.

24th-30th of what month? The answer is mostly the same, keep trying. People cancel/change adr's all the time and you might just get lucky. If it's for this month, your odds are probably lower because you're running out of time. Keep trying and even try once you get there, you just never know when you'll get a sprinkling of pixie dust

When we were down there last October, I cancelled a LeCellier dinner reservation for 14 the morning of since we decided not to go to Epcot that day. The concierge desk almost thought that I was joking. They said "You are going to make alot of people really happy" Made me feel good as we had already gone to LeCellier earlier in our trip.

Keep trying. We ate there January 25. It was the second best meal of our 10 day trip.

What month, and how many people?

We were there last week and at Epcot just about every day for our 9 day trip (DH is Epcot addicted) and there was Le Cellier was sold out for lunch and dinner every day. We called and the answer was no, they had a CM posted out front at the main LC entrance telling people there wasnt any openings.

My advice is to keep calling, with the menu changes someone may cancel

 

[Tiggeroo]

sorry, August. Three people. how is lunch? Is it worth using a dinner dining credit for?

I just cancelled a dinner for 3 at Le Dellier for August 15, so people DO cancel. Keep trying!

We have always done lunch at LeCellier because we could never get a dinner ressie. This year we finally were able to get a dinner ressie instead of lunch. We always enjoyed our lunches. But they've taken both things off the menu that we used to order. So who knows...this may be out last visit for awhile depending on how the new items are.

I'll give you opposing advise and say to try calling again once or twice but don't waste your time beyond that. It's far from the best place to eat at the WDW parks/hotels. Over-hyped IMHO.

I tried booking today for dinner on Sept 27 through Sept 29. Any day... and there was no availability at Le Cellier. There was a 8:50 one night and I didn't want to do that.
Ended up booking lunch instead. Hopefully we won't be disappointed.

I tried for any dinner 9/3-96 for 2 no go. I added a person and bingo a 7:00 on 9/3.

We are trying for June 23rd,,keep calling but no lucl,,We are booked at Princess Storybook- Akershus,,???? Dont know never been there..Epcot yea,,soarin and test track here we come!!

Keep trying, but honestly, the only way I think you can get a Le Cellier ADR is by calling 180 days out, when the line opens for ADR's. (7am?)

After this, it is very difficult to get an ADR. Don't get discouraged though, like everyone said, people cancel all the time, and there's always a chance you could get a table.

Last year when I was trying to get a reservation at Le Cellier a cm told me the best time to try was at night around 8/9 pm.

I don't know if this works as my BFF and I chose to just try out Ohana instead. (Which ended up being our third favorite restaurant of the trip just after the Brown Derby and Boma).

I tried on Monday night to get into Le Cellier (1st time there) for dinner on 8/30 and it was a no go, so I booked it for lunch @ 1:15 PM. We'll do Princess Storybook (1st time as well) later that even at 7:55 PM.

I called yesterday to check again if there were any dinner times and the CM said is was booked solid. Oh well....

 

[Ron from Michigan]

Yes keep trying. I had to call give out 3 different dates to get in from Oct.1-11.

 

[thewesterberg]

Yeah, I agree they're hard to come by! We had to go with a lunch reservation... when the CM pulled up dinner that day, she went "oooohhhh...." I asked her what? and she said for that night the numbers were actually in the negative - she'd never seen that before! YIKES!

We just booked the free dining package for Sept 11-15 and were planning for Le Cellier one night. I decided on a few, but preferred one in particular. When calling on Wednesday afternoon, I asked for my first choice, and she gave me a few options! Were looking for early-ish, and got 445! I say we were quite lucky, as it seems.

Hope everyone keeps working on that! Sept 11 was the day I booked.
