T-Rex priority seating?

[Meg's Mom]

I'm a bit confused...I called T-Rex directly for a reservation for lunch next week, got my time, but they said it was "priority seating", not a reservation, and there might be a small wait. Is this usual? I was under the impression that they made reservations, but then I had also read that you could not reserve for T-Rex through the Disney site, and then when I looked saw you *could* make an online ADR. I guess I can't believe everything I read!

I made mine online and printed it up with all my other ADRs for Dec

It's exactly like a reservation for Disney. Although Disney calls theirs "advance reservations" they do not hold a table open for you. What it means is that when you check in, you will get the next table that accommodates your party to open up. That is why you might have to wait a little while. While you can make reservations for T-Rex through Disney, they release only a fraction of their tables for booking through Disney, so you might have much better luck going directly through T-Rex, seeing as you will not have to wait any longer just because you didn't make a reservation through Disney.
