Questions re: Current Dining Details

[BandMom1]

A couple of questions for anyone who has been to the parks in the last week or two....

1. Napa Rose - We were there at the end of June and tables were spaced pretty far apart - wondering if this is still the case?
2. Blue Bayou - same question as for Napa Rose
3. Carthay Restaurant (not the lounge/al fresco dining) - are they seating guests outdoors on the patio?
4. Is Plaza Inn still mobile order only? If so, how early should I put in an order for dinner (say 5-6pm)?
5. If I have a reservation for Trader Sam's, can I request a table outside on the patio?

We will be arriving this coming weekend and I know some thing have changed since we were last there in June. Thanks in advance for any and all answers!!

First of August, blue bayou was pretty close together. I think I had read at one point, only 11 tables were in there, which is probably what you saw. Definitely a lot more tables now.

Thank you! Yes, I believe they had just 10-12 tables when we were there - it was great!

I wish I had counted tables for you, but I didn't. We ate at BB last week, and it didn't "feel" overcrowded or tight to me at all. It was our first DLR trip, though, so I can't compare it to pre-COVID or early reopening times, all I can say is spacing felt reasonable to me.

Also, you mentioned Carthay but not the alfresco dining, but I'm going to mention it anyhow in case you or someone else might find this helpful. I'd decided on the alfresco dining based on the menus, and since our appetites ended up being pretty small, it worked out perfectly for us. I did that in spite of really wanting to sit in A/C vs. outdoors. To my delight and surprise, without my asking, we were given an indoor table for our al fresco dining! It seemed there was a whole little section near the open side doors leading to the outdoor tables that was being used for al fresco. I'm sure we could have asked for outdoors and been accommodated, but it was just perfect for us. We got to stay cool-ish and enjoy some of the restaurant atmosphere while still eating our mini portions of great food!

Blue Bayou....Didn't eat there but "floating by" on Tuesday looked like they are back to their regular table capacity.

Plaza Inn did not have mobile order Tuesday night but probably should have because honestly it was hot mess in there. Lines for the food sections(pasta, chicken, salad) and cashiers were all tangled together. It was a mess.

Can't help with the others.

Great questions!!! We always plan on trying a new place for a meal during our trips. Now I feel like we will be trying anything we can be seated outside for or stick to counter service.
