Showing Up Really Early with ADR

[qanita92]

I am not sure if this is allowed but we have an ADR (Boma) that is rather late and I was wondering if I came an hour or two beforehand if we will be seated.

It depends how busy it is. I did the same thing last year - I was staying at AKL and I went down an hour early for my Boma reservation but I was seated only about 5 minutes before my ADR time.

I say not likely. If they had room an hour or two earlier then you would be able to get an ADR for those times. Anything is possible, but not likely.

Possibly..but I wouldn't count on it.

You might get lucky if there is a no-show or a cancellation, but in all likely hood you would just be waiting until your origional ADR.

You can always try.

We have showed up over an hour early for Crystal Palace, Ohana and San Angel Inn and have been seated within 10 mins.
We also checked in an hour and a half early for LeCellier last Dec, were told it would be a LONG wait....I said "ok", we sat down on the bench and within 2 mins the waitress came to seat us. I guess we were blessed with having this happen.

You can always ask. We have done this at several EPCOT restaurants and have always been fortuante enough to eat earlier. It never hurts to ask. The worst that can happen is they can tell you no availability.
