Places to eat at citiwalk that don't require reservation

[kitkat4622]

Can someone tell me a good place to eat for dinner that doesn't require a reservation at City walk? Ty

Quite a few take walk ins but if they are full, you will have a wait for a table

It really depends on when you are going. If it is a school holiday time period try to pick an early dinner or late lunch. Memorial Weekend we had to have reservations, but other times we have easily walked into everything at Citywalk with the exception of Margaritaville. Definitely not as bad as WDW though. Good ones, NBC Grill, Cowfish and the Breadbox. Bigfire is good but I would recommend reservations

It depends on timing - we have walked in Antojitos for dinner on the early side with no issues. Other than brunch at Toothsome our last trip we don't eat much at City Walk.

I would try NBC Grill and Brew. They have a lot of seating and I have (in the past) never had an issue getting a table quickly.

I know some are recommending NBC Grill, but we were there a few weeks ago and at 4:00, the earliest seating available was at 9. We had 6:15 reservations, but ended our day early at the park and were hoping that at 4, there wouldn't be much of a wait. I was surprised when the hostess told me how long the wait was. This was the Tuesday after Easter, so I'm sure the spring break crowd had something to do with this. If you are going when crowds aren't too bad, this might not be an issue.

I have never seen Pat O'Briens full, even during Spring Break it was 90% empty. But Cowfish and others are always always available to reserve with not much more than a day's notice.

I had a hard time getting reservations Saturday May 14th between 5 and 10pm for Pat O’Briens. I guess I need to always err on the side of caution

We enjoy the sandwiches and soup at Breadbox (although usually do that for lunch). We've eaten at Bubba Gump and at Margaritaville plenty of times and I'm pretty sure we've only ever done walk-up. We ate at NBC Grill on our last visit. We were walk-up, but we did have to wait a bit for a table (maybe 30 minutes or so).

I’m sure the OP found somewhere to eat. Wanted to toss out there that the various onsite resort venues often have last-minute spots open.

I don't see reservations area for Bubba Gump.

cowfish has a bar that is walk up

We have walked in everywhere with not one reservation since we arrived May 2nd.

One place told us a 20 minute wait, but we waited less than 5.

We do like the bar at Cowfish, but we could easily have walked into sitting at a table too.

SO glad to hear this! Maybe it's getting back to that way UO used to be that ressies aren't really a "thing"

I think reservations are always a good idea if you would like to eat at a specific place and time.

Personally, I would get a reservation. We dined at several in April. None of them were taking walk ups without at least a 2 hour wait. Big Fire Grill was not taking walk ups at all.
