In what order should I make my ADRs?

[njprincess601]

My ADR date is coming up next week and I know where I want to eat but I don't know the order I should try for them in! I do know I'm trying for some pretty hard ressies though!

May 12: Tutto Italia dinner
May 13: Crystal Palace lunch
May 14: 50's Prime Time lunch
May 15: Narcoossees dinner (i'm not very flexible with time on this one)
May 16: Le Cellier dinner
May 17: The Plaza dinner

TIA

Le Cellier can be a hard ressie to snag, so start with your May 16th Le Cellier request, then May 15th because of your inflexibility. You may want to ask for CP third, since it is a character meal. Good luck!

but I would go

Le Cellier
Narcoossee's
Tutto Italia
50s Prime Time
Plaza
CP

Since most of them are hard ADRs then I would put your first "have to have" first and then go down the line. Which ones that are most important to you, then in preference to how hard they are usually to get.

The Plaza, Crystal Palace and Tutto shouldn't be as hard as the others but I would still do "MY" must do meal first and go from there. Good luck!

I did my reservations online (the window starts at 6 AM EST) and was able to get all of my top choices plus several other ideas scheduled w/in 30 minutes. Just something to consider, assuming the online system is working, it may be faster than calling, and hopefully you can get what you want.

You are welcome. How I figure it, if Le Cellier is the hardest to get into yet not my favorite "if I don't eat here I will cry" restaurant, then I want to book "my favorite" first so I can enjoy it.
I would hate to be sitting somewhere others think is popular and a hard ADR and thinking "I would rather be eating at.......".

So it is a balancing act.
