My ADR List -- Sounds Good? (Updated)

[simonkodousek]

Any feedback on my list of ADR's would be appreciated! By the way, we are staying Polynesian Club Level, and will have breakfast there (we're pretty light breakfast eaters) and will be on the DDP...

August 2nd (Arrival, Epcot)
Breakfast -- N/A
Lunch -- Concierge Lounge
Dinner -- Yakitori House

August 3rd (Magic Kingdom)
Breakfast -- Concierge Lounge
Lunch -- Cosmic Ray's Starlight Cafe
Dinner -- Crystal Palace*

August 4th (Epcot)
Breakfast -- Concierge Lounge
Lunch -- Sunshine Seasons
Dinner -- Nine Dragons*

August 5th (Disney's Hollywood Studios)
Breakfast -- Concierge Lounge
Lunch -- Backlot Express
Dinner -- Ohana's

August 6th (Animal Kingdom)
Breakfast -- Concierge Lounge
Lunch -- Flame Tree BBQ
Dinner -- Yak & Yeti TS

August 7th (Magic Kingdom, Epcot)
Breakfast -- Concierge Lounge
Lunch -- Captain Cook's
Dinner -- Biergarten*

August 8th (Epcot/Downtown Disney/PM Departure)
Breakfast -- Concierge Lounge
Lunch -- Electric Umbrella
Dinner -- Kona Cafe*

The restaurants that have * next to them, are absolute, 100%, must-do's for us. I'm open to suggestions to the other ones.

Do you think this will be too much food? I don't, because we usually do two TS and 1 CS per day, and then one or two snacks on top of it, but with the Concierge Lounge, I'm just not sure...

How is the Yak & Yeti for dinner? Are there choices on the menu that would be good for a very picky eater? And, if not, will they bring out some fried or regular rice if you ask?

Also, what are some good places for snacks in the parks?

Thanks,
Simon

They look very good. I would make 2 suggestions.
Rather than the Yakatori House I would have dinner at the Tangerine Cafe on your arrival day. The food is excellent and the serving size of the platters is really large. Of course this just might be a personal preference.
Planet Hollywood consistently gets poor review here, and you can visit them outside of Disney. I would recommend Raglan Road for your DTD dinner. We were there in October and it was fabulous. The food was excellent, the band was outstanding, the Irish Step dancer was great and our server was fantastic. We had an 8:45 ADR as I knew the entertainment started at 9. We lingered after dinner totally enjoying ourselves. Our server was attentive enough to notice when we might need another beverage , without being intrusive at all. We had a great evening and I highly recommend it.

I agree about Planet Hollywood getting bad reviews. I have yet to read one good one.

I agree as well. For DTD restaurants, my suggestion is the table service of Wolfgang Puck Cafe. I can only suggest the Cafe. I do not know if the Dining Room upstairs is good.

Well, since we are on the DDP, we have to use up 1 TS Credit on our departure day, and that is the day that I wanted to visit DTD (shopping at the Disney stores).

I'm going to try to get a late flight (7 PM and after) so we can have dinner, go back to the Poly and get to the airport an hour or two before the plane departs. Is Raglan Road open for dinner (or even a late lunch) around 4 PM? What about Wolfgang Puck?

I wish you luck with lunch in the CL. We were CL at YC last month and lunch offerings there consisted of Goldfish, mixed nuts and bagged cheddar popcorn Also, I think Nine Dragons is closed for renovations.

The only place I completely recommend is Aloha Isle in MK has Dole Whip Floats!

I have to have one each time we visit MK.

These restaurants are both open for dinner. With a 4 pm ressie, I don't think you'll have any trouble. It think they get very busy from 6pm on.

I am planning for our August 2009 trip... that is a LONG way off!!
