Narcoossee's

[SaraJR]

So i have 2 days before ADRs. Someone recommeneded Narcoossee's for a romantic meal and said if i make my plans for 830 they said I could see both illuminations and wishes, is this true every night? because if its correct it makes using 2 credits worth it but if it isnt than i dont think id do it.
Experiences,reconmendations, worth 2 credits, not worth it??

You cannot see IllumiNations from Narcoossee's. IllumiNations is the nighttime show in Epcot. If you time your meal right, you can see Wishes (or whichever fireworks show is being presented at the MK) and the Electric Water Pageant (EWP). For my family (three adults), a three course meal takes between 1.5 and 2 hours. I would probably aim for an ADR that is about 75 to 90 minutes before the fireworks show so that you'll be between entree and desserts when the show is slated to start. In most cases, if you have an ADR at 8:30 pm, you'll probably be able to see the fireworks, but it does depend a little on when the fireworks are slated to occur. I would look at the calendar, see when fireworks are scheduled, and then make an ADR.

Narcoossee's has a good view of fireworks and EWP, but most folks go out to the veranda to watch the show. There are some window tables with a view, but the view can be blocked by guests out on the veranda. They do dim the lights and pipe in the music to both the restaurant and the veranda.

The view from the veranda:

Narcoossee's is my favorite restaurant in WDW, so I highly recommend eating there. In general, it's tough to make it economically efficient to use 2 TS credits at any restaurant, but Narcoossee's does have a few entrees that are very expensive and can actually be a good use of the 2 TS credits.

ohhh EWP is what i meant its so hard to remember all the show names lol is there a way to see the schedule for novemeber? what time would you recommend to see both shows?

Allears.net has a listing of the approximate time when the EWP will be at each location. Depending on when you're going in November, EWP's show time can be affected by MK's fireworks. So it's worth checking your date to see the times for fireworks.

Looking through the calendar for November 2015, it looks like fireworks is either at 8:00 pm, 9:30 pm, or 10:00 pm depending on the day. So that's quite a range of times. Assuming EWP is usually around 9:15 pm, I would probably make an ADR for around 8:00 pm to see both fireworks and EWP. Now, if fireworks is at 8:00 pm, you'll probably want to make an earlier ADR (e.g., 7:00 pm) and then you can watch EWP after dinner.

Should I understand from the above that the MVMCP fireworks audio also gets piped?

I can't speak for Holiday Wishes from personal experience, but I do know they pipe in the music for HalloWishes, so I would assume the same is true for Holiday Wishes.

DH and I had dinner they a few years ago during MVMCP and they did pipe in the Holiday Wishes music.
