LeCellier warning about ADRs!

[Momie]

I called last week and got them for the third week of March at 12:50 with no problem. Lunch must be easier than Dinner.

Just booked a party of 5 for July 9th @ 7 pm.

I booked yesterday for a party of 6, June 13th and the only time left was 8:50.

I just booked June 13th for a party of 9 and was given 6:20. We'll be at 3 tables, but at least we're in!

I thought about booking for only 4 and making 2 of the kids eat pizza at the villa so we could get an earlier time but we will be there for another 6 days and I would probably have to hear about it every day so in the end it just wouldn't be worth it.

One of the problems between folks booking for ADRs soon vs ADRs for this summer is the fact that starting April 1 DVC members will be able to add the DDP to their reservations. As a DVC member I have received lots of information about the DDP and reminders of this new perk. This new perk will make it much harder to get ADRs starting April. I booked my LeCellier ADRs in January for my May trip and had to choose 3 different days to find a time that wasn't after 8:30PM for a table for 6. I also booked 2 different nights for a table for 2 and had no problem. Maybe this is why they recently changed the timing from 90 to 180 days.

After reading the posts on this, I realize why it would be hard to seat a party more than 4 since they would have to push two tables together. I did try and get a reservation for 5 with no luck, however, I can get a reservation for 4. My question is: There technically are 5 of us, but one is a baby, should I go for the reservation for 4 just to get in, can't they put a highchair on the end of the table for 4 without pushing two tables together? Just checking, we would really like to try this place out!

I book Le Ceiller (and a couple of other places) for our group of 15. Of course we took the 5pm time but then again with a big group I expected it (earlier time). I was told that they might have to split our group with was fine.

Just a suggestion, have you tried booking a table for 6, sometimes that will make a difference.

Did you tell them you are a party of 4 adults and a baby (requiring a high chair)? Some restaurants would be ok with using a 4-top in that situation. Although Le Cellier is really tight and I doubt the fire marshall would go along with it.

I just (meaning today) booked us for 5/12 and had quite a few options. Then again it's not peak season and there's only 2 of us.
