Restuarant Dining with a large group

[poppy17]

Hi Guys

Looking for some advice please....

We are booked up for next with a grand total of 12 people.

Just wondering if this would be a problem at restaurants?

We plan to have several table service celebration dinners (there are 3 bdays on the trip ) and we would really like to be sat at the same table.

Is this possible? Does anyone know?

Thank you in advance

It just depends on which restaurants you go to I think. I just made a few ADR's for our group also 12 for next March. At Whispering Canyon they said we would be sat at 2 tables and at Crystal Palace one big table. It must depend on how they are set up or availability of large tables. I'm assuming at WC even though we'll be at 2 different tables that we will be close together.

It does totally depend on where you go. We had a larger group of nine with us when we went in Dec, and some places could guarantee together and some not. We were always told to tell the person at check in that we would request one table or at least two right next to each other

We just got back and had a group of 11 at every TS meal. With free dining I thought we might have a problem seating us together or long waits to get a table, but we didn't.

When I made the ADRs the CM told me we would be assigned two tables and they might not be together, but that was not the case. All our evening meals were between 5:30 and 6:30pm - so we were eating at the busiest times. SciFi was the only place where we ended up with two tables (cars) and they were side-by-side. We only had one wait past our ADR time and that was at WCC on a Saturday night - we waited 30 minutes to get one long table for all 11 of us.

We had TS meals at the following places:
Le Cellier
1900 Park Fare
SciFi Diner
Hollywood & Vine
Crystal Palace
CRT (7 people)
Chef Mickey's (4 people)
WCC

It depends on where you eat. We went with a party of 11 last time and had several ADR's. We had dinner at O'hanas and all ate at one large, long table. At the Crystal Palace for dinner we were at two different tables (they didn't have one big enough for all of us). The second table was directly behind the first one. We all at at one table at the Rainforest Cafe at the Animal Kingdom. We were in 3 different "cars" at the Sci Fi drive-in. We did all get to sit together at the character breakfast at Animal Kingdom (I think it's Breakfastasouras). There were 9 of us when we went to breakfast at Cinderella's castle and we all sat at one table there, too.

We were there in June with a group of 16. We had no problems at all, as a matter of fact I believe the CM's tried extra hard to make sure we all stayed together. We had ressies at the following: O'Hana's, Cape May(breakfest), H&V, Biergarten and did a walk up at ESPN Club for lunch. We had a BLAST!!!!

This has put my mind at rest, now I only have to decide which restaurants to book
