Party of 8...lots of dining question

[egjlsmommy]

I've been seeing a lot of people wondering about their parties being split up. I'm really getting worried now!

If you have a large party and they split you up, do you still get treated like a large party? Or are you now 2 groups of 4? How many of you have experienced this? I know it's a ways off for me (we're going in December), but then again, we're going in December! Busy, busy!

We have gone as a group of 10 and 11. We were never split up, every restaurant accommodated our party size by creating a larger table. Good Luck and have fun!!!

We have gone as a party of 11 and a party of 17 (one week for each time). The only places we were split up was at Sci Fi and Coral Reef.

I went was in a party of 8 and the only place we were at separate tables was Crystal Palace, but those tables were right next to each other and we were treated like one group. We also ate at Boma, Garden Grill, 1900 PF and Chef Mickey's and were always sat at one table.

And actually, at CP it was nice because having two separate tables made it easier for everyone to get in and out without other people have to move like would have if the tables had been pushed together.

Oh thanks everyone! I'm already feeling better!

I have gone with a group of 10 and was split up twice - once at Planet Hollywood and once at Tony's Town Square. Both times we were not at tables that were close to each other. Not sure if the automatic 18% gratuity for parties of 6 or more applied when we were separated though.

I've gone several times as a party of 9 or 10, and luckily we've never had to be separated!
Hopefuly we can maintain that record when we go next year
