Narcoossee's dress code

[r&t'smom]

We will be going to Narcoossee's July 4th and wanted to know dress code. It is me, husband, 7 & 4 yr old. Planning to go and see fireworks. How dressed up, and they stay in "park clothes" sleeveless and shorts or do we have to change?

I can't speak for Narcoosee's but I know that when my DH and I dined at Artist Point last week they were turning away male diners that were dressed in t-shirts--collars required for dining. I checked Disney.com and Narcoosee's is listed as a signature restaurant but there is so much conflicting information about the "dress code" that there's no telling what is or isn't acceptable.

I know that several people were making a scene in the entrance of Artist Point because they claimed they had not been informed of the dress code. The manager was called out (there was lots of yellling going on) and he stated that Disney requires "business casual" at all signature restaurants now. Hopefully someone who has dined there recently can give you a better answer.

Not sure why it's such a big deal for you and DH to wear a polo (ie collared shirt) and "walking" length shorts and dress the kids in cute short sets that morning.

Frankly we don't feel comfortable having a really nice dinner if we're sticky from sun block and wearing clothes we've been sweating in all day, and would rather take the hour to return to our resort, take a quick shower and chenge into fresh clothing.

Did either of us say it was a big deal?

Speaking for myself, my DH and I were dressed in something a little "nicer" than walking length shorts and polo shirts for dinner at Artist Point. We were well aware of the dress code and dressed accordingly.

I was replying to the OP, and ny the tone of their post it seems that they would prefer to stay in theme park casual.

Was thinking of tring to make the most of the park as possible before dinner. Not sure if and when will return to the room. (will probably go back to room early afternoon, but was thinking of going to the park, maybe before dinner, if possible). Wasn't sure if I should carry around an extra set of clothes.

On major holidays, particularly July 4th, Christmas, and New Years, you've got a good chance of not being able to get back in due to crowd levels once you leave the MK.

My suggestion is to take the clothes with you and stash them in a locker. I'd also take whatever you'll need to freshen up a bit--perhaps a facecloth in a ziplock, deoderant, and a body spritz? Put them in the locker as soon as you arrive, and freshen up and change before dinner.

Here's my tip--on the second floor of the main building at the GF, back by the entry to V&A's and Citrico's the ladies room is generally not crowded and a good place to change.

I just made a reservation for Narcoosee's for late August and was told... well, warned was more like it ... by the CM that it's "business casual".

Definietly plan on something nicer than shorts and t-shirts.

I'm amazed to hear that Disney is enforcing their policy. I hear so much about people smoking outside smoking areas and CMs not doing anything; I was wondering if they'd enforce this one. Since DH is a golfer, and a collared shirt is required at most golf courses, he's used to wearing a collared shirt at WDW (he's sure WDW is a golf resort).

Actually a bit OT but this past Saturday I saw three different situations where CM's nicely told smokers that they would have to put out their cigarette and move to a non-smoking area of the park if they'd like to smoke. One young lady in France really stood her ground against a guy who got pretty nasty with her. DH was pretty close to intervening--this guy had obviously had a bit too much sun and more than a bit too many yards of beer.

DH has always worn a neat and clean sweatshirt to Narcoosee's, CA Grill, Artist Point, Jiko, etc. No collar on it. He's never had a problem in several years of dining, including as recently as a few months ago.

The enforcement of the business casual dress code for Signature Restaurants is new, within the last couple of weeks.

That said, it's business casual. No sleeveless shirts on mens, collared shirts required, no cut offs, no flip flops. No t-shirts with writing on them. No torn or ragged clothing and no swim wear.

Everyone should be told this when booking the ADR, sadly some CMs seem to forget.

No flip-flops for just men, or women too? It will be my mom and I and I had read that there was a dress code. I is EMH at MK the night we will be dining at Narcoossee's and we were hoping to go after dinner. We dont have a problem dressing businee casual, but neither of us want to walk around looking too nice or in heels. Anybody go recently who can advise?

I'm surprised they're enforcing it. I was wondering what the point was on several occasions that I saw a family literally dripping wet from the pool at AP, a young man in a wife-beater & jailin jeans at CG & a family in very casual theme park clothes at Narcoossees.

I personally like to dress for dinner & don't think it's a big deal to put that bit of effort into a signature dinner. But, I have thought since Disney "instituted" the code that if they weren't going to actually enforce it, they shouldn't even bother stating it. I guess they finally decided to put their money "wear" there mouths are.

As far as women & thong style sandals - there are dressy, yet comfy options that I'm sure would pass the muster. I think they would frown on the regular old rubber flip flop tho.

Thong sandals are fine, just not rubber beach flip flops.

We just came back two weeks ago. We dined at Narcoosee's, California Grill and Jiko. There was no enforcement of the so-called business casual dress code whatsoever. There will be no one stopping you if you wear rubber beach flip flops. Believe me!
