Just made my ADR's!!

[JenSop]

Well, I dragged myself up at 7:00am this morning so I could call for my July ADR's. Got everything I wanted, except the one night, we have family coming in for the day, so we have a party of 8. Had to do two tables of 4 at Cape May Cafe as all the big tables were already booked! Yikes! And that's calling at 7am! (and more than exactly 180 days out, since it's three days into our trip for that one.) Also couldn't book Yak & Yeti yet, as they're exactly 180 days out for booking. Guess I'll have to be getting up early 5 days from now.

And I'm very excited to say that I got my Le Cellier dinner!! Although, I couldn't get 7pm - had to settle for 7:30 - and that' s a week into our trip; it was already filling up.

So here's my ADR's for the curious (one week with party of 5 on regular DDP, two extra nights with party of 2 on DeluxeDDP):

Day 1 - Coral Reef
Day 2 - Cap'n Jack's
Day 3 - Cape May Cafe
Day 4 - Boma
Day 5 - Ohana
Day 6 - (Yak & Yeti - to be booked)
Day 7 - Le Cellier
*********
Day 8 - Narcoosee's
Day 9 - Olivia's Cafe & Artist Point
Day 10 - San Angel Inn (I don't care about the bad reviews - it's pretty and has AC!)

Can't wait!

It looks great! I'm curious about Yak & Yeti. Were you not able to book it today with the other ones? ETA: I'm guessing that the 180 plus 10 doesn't apply to Y&Y??

Correct - the 180 days +10 did not apply to Yak & Yeti. You literally have to wait until the exact 180 days out.

I have to agree with you about Mexico, we ate at San Angel Inn last July and although I barely eat any Mexican food, I loved the atmosphere of the restaurant and we had a very nice waitress. I always loved going into the Mexico pavillion and I am glad we went for the dinner there. The food was so-so in my opinion, but all in all I still enjoyed dining there.

San Angel Inn was the surprise of our October trip. DH and DS wanted to eat here, but I almost cancelled the ADR several times, based on horrible reviews here.
We totally enjoyed it.
Our server was attentive but not hovering, just right.
The atmosphere is beautiful and we did not feel it was too dark, I could easily read the menu with the lamp on our table.
And the food was good.
For appetizers I had the Nacho's. They were just okay - not great, they were a little soggy. DH and DS each had the Ensalada de la Casa - Selected mixed greens, house dressing a very fresh, large and tasty salad. Both were happy.
For our entrees I had the Plato Mexicano - Beef Tenderloin Tampiquena, chicken enchilada, and beef flauta, served with sour cream, black refried beans and Mexican rice. It was delicious and more than I could finish. I requested it without the beans, and that was no problem.
DH and DS each had the Combinacion Cozumel - Grilled beef tenderloin, marinated shrimp and roasted chayote served with spicy ranchero sauce, poblano pepper mashed potatoes and grilled vegetables, and again they were both very satisfied with both the taste and quality of the food.
I was too full for desert but the others ordered the Flan and again they liked it very much.
Have a great trip.

Not to barge in on this post, but what is the 180 + 10?

OP - Le Cellier is also one of my faves! I hope you have a wonderful time.
