Need help with dining reservations!!!

[lolabee2000]

Help moms and dads. We are going to WDW in November and this is the first time we are doing the DDP. We usually do the QSP. My 11 yrs autistic son will ONLY eat pizza and French fries. That's it. I've tried to book restaurants that have cheese pizza on the menu, but not all do. I've read about people checking with special diets due to food allergies, etc. My son doesn't have a dietary restriction per se.....but he will only eat that food! Any restaurants you can recommend? Anyone I should contact? Can they help us????

Have you checked the menus posted on AllEars? They are usually kept fairly well up-to-date, though I haven't looked recently. That can give you an idea of what foods will be available at each restaurant so you can plan your ADRs at the locations where he'll find something palatable. I'm not sure Special Diets would be able to help, other than possibly providing menus but those are readily available online.

Enjoy your vacation!

Ditto checking all ears. They stay pretty up to date. I would not expect them to provide something that is not on the menu. So if there is no pizza listed I wouldn't think they could just make one or get one. Many of the kids buffets have pizza as an option at least for lunch and dinner. Idk if he eats other things for breakfast but maybe make that your table service meal. You could also have him eat before a meal and then bring something to occupy him during your meal or order him some fries oop if they are available. People with allergies usually get a version of an item without the ingredient they are allergic to or with an easy sub like a gluten free roll for a regular roll.

I've made special requests before when the vegetarian option was something I didn't care for, but it was always a modified version of something else on the menu rather than something completely different. I think there's a phone number for special diets where they might be able to answer specific questions, but I'm not sure where to find it.
