Most Popular ADRs

[kaze1sd]

Hi DISers!

Was just wondering what the most popular ADRs in WDW are. Our 180 day date is drawing near and was wondering which places we should really consider before they book up.

The only ones that come to mind are CRT, LeCellier, and the Illuminations Cruise but we go to WDW very infrequently (unfortunately) and are far from being experts on things like these.

We do qualify for grand gatherings with eight people if that makes a difference. Thanks for the help in advance!

Based on my attempts to get ADRs (well inside the 180 day mark), I'd say Ohana dinner and Le Cellier. I still can't get Ohana at a normal dinner hour.

Thanks for the tips. We were considering Ohana too so I am glad you let me know. "Non-normal" dining hours might work in our favor considering we are coming from the west coast and normally eat three hours later.

Le Cellier I say is the hardest, although I have always been on the phone 5 minutes before the phones open up on the morning of my 180 day mark and I have always gotten time times that I wanted to every restaurant that I wanted.. I just now had a hard time, but thats because I book them and then play around with them and second guess myself.. But, its part of the fun!

So does LeCellier not allow walk-ups? Seems universally that they are the hardest to book. Not that I would try with a party of eight, just curious.

I still can't get Ohana's before 9:00PM.
I would say try for that at least.
Also in Hollywood Studios - 50's Primetime Cafe.

Now that Le Cellier has "gone" signature & requires 2 TS credits off the dining plans for dinner, people have been cancelling & booking lunch b/c it is still only 1 TS credit.

Sorry to say that Ohana is now harder to get than LeCellier. You are LUCKY if you can get an ressie for dinner even if it is later in the night. Trust me....

They are right about LC being 2 TS for dinner now, so ressies are a bit more available. But lunch is about the same.

Another hard ressie is Chef Mickey's. It isn't as bad, but if it on your list you will want to try to get it before other ressies.

Does time of travel have any effect? I have never had a problem booking 'Ohana, not even this time. We are booked for 6:30. I know the size of the group does (we are only 3) but wondered about travel times. Some ppl don't like to eat a big meal during the summer months. Curious.
