New Year's Eve at La Hacienda de San Angel??

[SPacer422]

Hi All,
My fiance and I will be in Disney World for our honeymoon on New Year's Eve! We'll be in Epcot and are considering the New Year's Eve special dinner at La Hacienda de San Angel.

Has anyone done it?

I know it's pricey, but I really like the idea of not having to fight the crowds, wait 45 minutes to go to the bathroom, and have to camp out a spot for IllumiNations 2+ hours in advance.

I know the view is good from the restaurant, but I also know New Year's Eve is basically the end all, be all fireworks show. Will it be a good enough view?

I'm trying to weigh the pros and cons of tying ourselves to one place the whole night. Any advice?

Thanks!

There is only a view from a few of the tables. By the windows most have a decent view, other tables nearby just so-so or very partial view, and several tables have no view at all. If Illuminations is your focus this is not the best choice for viewing.

We've not done the NYE party at Hacienda, so someone else please chime in if the viewing is any better for the party or if they block the outside CS area for viewing?

Illuminations is spectacular for NYE though! If you are in Epcot most of the day the countries will also have a mini celebration of a few minutes when it's midnight in their country.
