Ohana's: what time?

[Belleoftheball]

I'm working on our final meal plans now and have a question about our final dinner at Ohana's on Sat., Dec. 7. Spectromagic is ONLY happening that night at MK so I really want to have time to see that. My question is, what time should I plan dinner at Ohana's if I want to get to MK to see Spectromagic? Should I try and squeeze it in before the parade or just have a nice lazy (late) dinner afterwards?

I've heard such great reviews and since it's our last night there, I'd hate to skip it all together.

I just got back from staying at the Polynesian, and our dinner at 'Ohana's was great! Since it comes in three stages (appetizers on a lazy susan, meat on skewers, and then pineapple with caramel for dessert), the dinner is a rather drawn out, relaxed process. Not in a bad way, but you just need time to savor the food and atmosphere and watch the kids do the coconut races and hula hoops. Our dinner took about 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 hours, so I think a nice lazy dinner aftewards would be more suitable.

Our dinner PS was for 6:40, and we were just getting around to dessert when the fireworks started at 8:00. It was great to watch them from 'Ohanas. Enjoy!

You know, I'd just love to spend our last night for dinner there and we ARE spending plenty of time at MK already, so I think I'll just schedule it during the time you did and relax there for the night....THANKS so much for the advice!
