OMG another PS question

[IM Goofy 2]

MY DH and I will be staying at the Poly at the end of Sept. We are intersted in eating at the Rose&Crown, O'Hana's and Kona cafe. Since it is just the 2 of us do you think ressies are necessary?

end of september probably not. I think for that time period you can make one the day of or the night before. End of September should be fairly light in terms of crowds.

If you are really flexible about when you want to eat and don't mind waiting, maybe not. However if you have a rough plan of where you are going to be it always helps to secure the time you want too. Even that morning or a day or so in advance helps, purely because it means you aren't left waiting 40 mins or so (any time around 6/7 pm or breakfast time 8/9am is going to be busy and you will wait) Really does sort of depends on how long you are prepared to wait. Off season in October we have had to wait 40 mins with a walk up. We were able to get good PS's the morning of, or the evening before. 'Ohana's is probably more in need of a PS (or advanced reservation as they are now calling themselves) at breakfast then at dinner. Rose & Crown is always a popular spot around Illuminations time.

I would certainly make a PS for Rose and Crown for dinner and 'Ohana for either meal. It probably won't be necessary to make it until close to the day you want to eat unless you are picky about the time.

Kona for lunch is easy to do without a PS. In our experience, dinner usually is too. An early breakfast probably won't be an issue but it can get crowded later especailly on weekends. But for breakfast and dinner, we always try to make a PS even if it is earlier in the same day or the night before.
