Looking over my ADR's and checking menu's and everything again.......well here is the problem. I guess that you need to know that I have 2 sons ages 6 & 7 along with DH and myself. And between my guys they would be happy with cheeseburgers and pizza for ever meal. Maybe a little seafood but nothing fancy! NOW looking at my ADR's I am starting to worry. :confused3

Day One arrive : 5pm Chef Mickey
Day 2: WCC 5Pm (Staying here)
Day 3: Coral Reef (4:30)
Day 4: Sci - Fi (12:10)-lunch
Day 5: Ohana (Breakfast - 10:30)
Day 6: Mama Melrose 6pm - Fantasma Package
Day 7: Ohana's 5pm
Day 8: Leave at 3pm

Now I think I should definately not have 2 different days at MGM eating...... ideas on that PLEASE.....

And I think that I should not do OHANA's after reading the menu,

I NEED A FEW SUGGESTIONS OR ADVISE ON MY ALL READY MADE PLANS AND SOON or I AM NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO CHANGE OF THESE....

HELP ME PLEASE
 
I think for your situation you've got some great choices. WDW specializes in catering to picky eaters. And all restaurants have childrens menus. That's my 2 cents. :thumbsup2

First of all, take a deeeeep breath...and relax! ;) I think you made great choices! A great variety! I think the menu at 'Ohana has a little for everyone, and remember they have a kid's menu, too. And the coconut races and so on at dinner sound like alot of fun! We are going in August. My only question would be about 2 ADRs at MGM-are you planning to actually do MGM on two seperate days?

First I would consider which parks you will be at on these days (or which ones you plan to be at). You wouldn't want to go from AK to MGM just to eat lunch. If you want to try something other than Ohana for dinner (we don't care for it btw), you might want to try some other places in Epcot (maybe Le Cellier), or head over to Concourse Steakhouse (they suposedly have the best hamburgers on property!). Based on what you have in your list, Coral Reef and Ohana always get mixed reviews so you might want to glance at the menus and go with your gut. You know your family's tastes better than any of us.
 

We're also leaving in 36days! see ya there
I made our ARs at 180 days but that was before I added on the dining pkg for our 3nights at AKL. Havent looked them over to see if thats the best use of the package. May need to make a few changes. Im also thinking of cancelling some - maybe others will also be tweaking their plans now that we are closer.
 
Should I make 2 adr's for MGM on same day.....is Fantasmic really worth it????

I can't comment on Fantasmic as I have never seen "the show." Instead of two TS in MGM, maybe one CS and one TS? Just my humble opinion!
 
We ate at Ohanas for the first time in April. My DS (14) didn't like anything. As soon as our waiter noticed he wasn't eating he offered many other things for him. Burger, fries, chicken strips. My DS and neice (13) enjoyed all the stuff they had to do it was well worth it even if they hadn't ate anything.

On the other hand, my husband ate enough for all of us. :rotfl:
 
See you there! We're leaving in 32 days. I did Sci-fi for lunch at MGM and we're doing counter service for dinner before Fantasmic. I think it will work better for us that day. 2 table service meals are a lot of food for one day and a lot of sitting for the kids. My DD is a chicken finger eater and was not thrilled with 'Ohana's but she loved the rest! Have fun.

When I do ADRs I will sometimes have 2 in one day; however, they are always breakfast and dinner (never lunch and dinner).

I've seen Fantasmic a few times, but only once with the passes for the pref seating. The other times we went we got there early enough that we had good seats regardless. Now if it had pref exiting after the show, I'd definately say it would be worth it!!!

Now if you are just wondering if the show is worth seeing, I'd say yes. I've seen it quite a few times between WDW and DL and usually see it at least once each trip; however, we didn't go this past trip because we didn't want to deal with the crowds.
