Of course it will be tomorrow. We all know how Disney likes to create a perfect storm. So on the day in which DVC members, TiW holders and AP holders can call Disney dining and book Food and Wine Festival deminars, Disney will clearly decide to muck up the process by adding Cali Grill ADRs to the mix.

What is so sad about that whole statement, I think you really could be right. Oh well, just another thing to deal with. Stressful, no this is not stressful. Was looking for a smile banging their head against the wall, but could not find it.

Seriously, I have come to believe that no ADRs will be released until sometime after or during the "soft open" period. I just hope online works. I hate the dialing derby!

Just called. Nothing today.

Okay, I've had enough! I am looking for an ADR on Sept. 11th, and with each passing day, this looks dimmer and dimmer. I refuse to be on the phone for several hours like I did with BOG. If no new info. is released today, I am sticking with my "backup" Flying Fish and will go to Cali on my next trip!

I really don't blame you. This is terrible. I booked my back up plan for Sept. 13. I guess if it happens it happens and if not we are eating at Narcoossee's, which we also love.

I'm with you and have done the same thing. I have all my ADR's already booked for my upcoming trip. I also refuse to once again spend hours upon hours trying to get through to Disney like I did a couple of weeks ago. I will stay content and try for the Cali next trip.

We'll be there from 11/10 - 11/17. I'm really hoping we can get a Cali Grill ADR.

We had date night there two years in a row, then ate there on our honeymoon, and now I'm wishing we can celebrate our one year anniversary there.

Ooof, you guys are making me feel very lucky... we aren't going until mid January! Even then I am

Those staying CL- Do you think it's best to book this one yourself when it opens or have the concierge staff handle it? Not sure how quick they are or if they have any advantage as I've always booked myself. Thanks!

If we were club level I would have passed my list to them and not given it another thought. They are very fast and might have an edge - never heard them not able to get someone something on the day their reservations opened.

DestructseAn, I shall fight you for a reservation on 11/10. My eight anniversary, though I have never been to CG!

I sent an email in to IPO earlier this week asking to be put on the watch list for CG for our trip next month. Life and work is so crazy right now that I am more worried I would miss the reservations opening. They did an amazing job getting all our reservations so I trust them to come through on this for us too if it does end up opening while we are there!

 

[mystery222184]

Thanks guys! I'm going to go ahead and send them my reservation request.

 

[CarolMN]

Still nothing as of this morning. Nothing in Parks Blog, either.

I hope something gets posted soon we will be going the first week in November and I would love to go to the new California grill
