Order of Dining Reservations - Please critique!

[mcgill93]

Hello!

I am stressing out about making my 180 ADRs on Saturday morning and would like some input about the order in which I plan to try to get my top reservation choices. Anyone willing to give feedback?

Here's the list:

1. Be Our Guest – Lunch

2. O’Hana – Dinner

3. Crystal Palace – Breakfast

4. Cinderella’s Royal Table – Dinner

5. Mama Melrose Fantasmic Package – Dinner

6. Tusker House – Breakfast

7. 1900 Park Fare – Dinner

8. Chefs de France – Dinner

9. Teppan Edo – Lunch

10. Biergarten – Dinner

Please let me know if you think I should move something around and if there is any hope of me getting any/some of these. We will be there during free dining, 11/12-11/20, though our resort wasn't eligible.

Thanks so much for any help you can give!

I would put CRT before CP, but otherwise it looks good!

Great choices! If these were mine, here is how I would prioritize them-

1. BOG
2. Ohana
3. CRT
4. Tusker House
5. Crystal Palace
6. Teppan Edo
7. Mama Melrose F! Dinner package
8. Chefs de France
9. Biergarten

I put CRT in the top 3 because it is very popular. It all depends on the day you are trying to get these for. I had success getting both CRT breakfast and BOG dinner on 11/12 because it was towards the end of our trip on our 8th day. Also, Teppan Edo did not have any availability but then times opened up the next day, so don't give up right away if you don't see any availability. Tusker House should be a little higher also since it is very popular! Good luck!

Bump Teppan Edo above Chef de France. My window opened on Monday and I was shocked that Teppan Edo was the ONLY place that was tough to get a reservation for. I'm serious. CRT, BOG were both open (neither of which we wanted, I have boys and the only female characters they want to meet are Ariel and Jasmine for obvious reasons). But Teppan Edo was booked solid for dinners. I even called the phone number and they were shocked that Teppan Edo was booked. Could've been a glitch, because a reservation on the exact day/time that I wanted opened up when I looked on Tuesday and there are a few spots still open for the week as of today.

Well, did you get everything? We will be there from the 11th-21st! So exciting !

@mcgill93: Did you get everything you wanted? My window opened up this morning too and I was interested how successful you were. We got what we wanted, but those website glitches got me worried. I hope you came out alright this morning too!

OP, I'm interested how you did as well. I couldn't get Teppan Edo today, either. I tried it early during my booking, and it's my last day at WDW on 11/19, so I thought it wouldn't be that hard to get something. The only restaurant I wanted that I didn't get. Not sure about some of my times, but I am hoping it'll work out ok. The site was very glitchy this morning, I thought.
