LOL, I will just say I'm officially confused! My trip is late August (Aug 24th forward) and I can book breakfast at The Wave but not The California Grill.

I would like to eat the The California Grill to see it's beautiful view but dinner is out of my price bracket. Eating 'The Wave' breakfast there would be ideal - if I could figure out how to book a reservation.

Is anyone else able to book a breakfast at The California Grill? I've tried unsuccessfully on my laptop and MDE app.

When you book The Wave, it tells you that breakfast will be served at CG, I believe.

Yes, you book "The Wave" but eat at CG. Very exciting!!

May I ask where others have seen this announcement? I was just able to book breakfast at 'The Wave' on Fri, Aug 27th but nowhere on the website, during my booking or on my confirmation does it indicate that this reservation is actually at 'California Grill'. I'm keeping it for now hoping that it is indeed for 'California Grill', just curious as to where others have seen this announced?

No offence to 'The Wave' but I have no desire to eat inside a dark restaurant when I can be eating overlooking the MK!

If you search for The Wave on the website and look below the picture of the salmon...

"Starting July 16, The Wave... of American Flavors will be closed, as we refurbish this space in time for the 50th anniversary celebration of Walt Disney World Resort. Dining is still available here through July 15. And, for a limited time during this closure, you'll be able to enjoy the breakfast menu served at California Grill. "

If they'd like to bring back the Wave breakfast buffet when they move upstairs to CG I would be excited even more.

THANK YOU!!! That part of the screen wasn't visible on my monitor.

Great news! Happy to try somewhere new and, for a reasonable price!

FYI it seems that they just added some CRT and BOG reservations for a lot of days in August! Must be getting more staffing

Joining this group. My dd (16) and I were originally scheduled on DCL at the end of July but our cruise was cancelled last Friday. I have airline credit we needed to use instead so I just booked a package trip to Disney World instead through Costco. We'll be flying in on August 6 and leaving on August 14. We're staying at the Dolphin. It's been 7 years since we've been to Disney World so I'm doing a lot of research on this board. I've already made park reservations for the 7 days we have tickets. There seems to be a lot of new things since we've been there last time. I'm getting pretty excited!!

May I ask how booking through Costco works? How do you transfer the tickets and reservations to the disney world site/app?

Thanks for the heads up on the Wave, we just got a breakfast rezzie on the 8th.

Just a heads up that not all August dates have 9PM closings. Aug 26th forward it's currently a mixture of 8PM and 9PM closings. It can still change but that's as of today.

Just called Magical Express for probably the last time and when he told me "no baggage tags mailed" it hit home and I got really sad.
