I agree that reservations can be helpful, especially on weekends right now as the parks are much more crowded then over weekdays. We wanted to eat lunch at Mythos this past Saturday. So I made some reservations and it was very nice to just walk up and get seated with virtually no wait. But it also can depend on the time you want to eat and the restaurant. On Friday afternoon, we walked up to Lumbard's for an early dinner and it wasn't crowded. So no waiting there. Sunday for lunch, we ate at the NBC Grill. It opened at 11am and we only had a very short wait. But when we were walking out a little after noon, there was a long line of folks waiting to get a table. So reservations then would have been beneficial.
