Top 10 Hardest Dinning Reservations

[TheBigErn]

With Geo 82 set to open, what are the top 10 hardest dinning reservations to get---rank them in order. I assume Geo 82 is the new number one. I remember when Hoop De Doo was at or near the top. Is Olga's still hard to get?

I'd put Cinderella's Royal Table first. Toppolino's, Ohana, Desert/firework dining, Oga's. Those would be my top few.

Space 220 seems to be hard to get. One and done for us, but worth one visit IMHO. (We ate in the lounge, so one course and a drink for the experience).

Agree that Geo 82 is going to be the newest hard to get reservation. Can't wait for the initial reviews to roll in. Agree with above that Space 220, Topolino's breakfast, Cinderella's Royal Table remain very popular. I'd add Sci-Fi Dine In to the list - that's been unusually hard to get recently. I see Oga's reservations pretty frequently, think the hype has died down on that, finally.

We are going June 7-21. I’ve just started ADRs as my pilot son in law just got his schedule on when he can join me, DH and DD? Nearly every day even Cali Grill, ‘Ohana have openings. Ogas has long been easy to get. The ones sold out except for a cancellation are Cindy’s, Sci Fi dine in, Space 220 lounge, Victoria and Albert’s. For some reason, a reasonable dinner time at San Angel Inn is elusive. Homecomin’ for brunch on weekends. Plus Geo 82

Sci-Fi being difficult to get is surprising. I've never had any problems getting it in the past. HS could use another sit down restaurant.

With Mama Melrose closed to make way for Monstropolis, table service dining in the Studios will be even more competitive now.

You can get anything if you have a week trip and try to get the hardest at the end

When not doing that, Homecomin is very difficult. V&A and Space 220 lounge

The rest I see pop up every now and then.

there's nothing harder than Blue Bayou

'Ohana breakfast has been hard already. I can only imagine it's going to get harder after the live-action Lilo and Stitch opens this weekend. (I've never done dinner there, so I have no idea about that one.)

Is Topolino's breakfast still hard?

Toppo's breakfast is easy if you're staying at RIV; you just waitlist on the app and you're in within 30 minutes

Is Topolino's breakfast still hard?

I haven't had any problem getting a Toppolino's breakfast the last 2 trips (Thanksgiving week and next week). However, it is the 1st reservation I make at 6am on my 60 day mark and I make it for the end of the week (Wednesday for Thanksgiving and Thursday for next week.) I think people who try to do it first thing in their stay, people with shorter stays, or off-site people have a lot more difficulty.

To clarify my original post; I'm asking about dinner reservations only and Disney World, not Disneyland.

 

[sethschroeder]

The ones you need to check back the most for would likely be Cinderella, Space 220, Ohana, Topolino's Breakfast, Victoria Alberts, Sci Fi.

Could easily be wrong though I dont look that closely.

I still make reservations at 60 days for most things but in reality I feel pretty good that on our trip if I want somewhere random last minute I can get it the same day or within a day or two especially with walk-up pretty much everywhere.

Based on my personal experience:

--- Nearly impossible, basically need a hotel reservation for 60+10 to snag a dining reservation
1. Victoria & Albert's

--- Very difficult, even with dining alerts these are hard to get
2. Space 220
3. Chef Art Smith's Homecoming

--- Difficult, but can regularly get using dining alerts
4. Narcoossee's
5. Ohana (Dinner)
6. Cinderella's Royal Table
7. Topolino's Terrace (Breakfast)

--- Not very difficult, but trying to get 10 restaurants in here, I've had difficulty getting these a few times, but I wouldn't argue that there might be more difficult reservations to get
8. Yak & Yeti
9. Beaches & Cream
10. The Plaza Restaurant

Not sure of the order but this is my two cents:

Cinderella's Royal Table
Space 220
'Ohana
Beaches & Cream
Cake Bake Shop
Hoop Dee Doo
Victoria & Alberts
Sci-fi Dine In
Homecomin
Topolino's (breakfast)

Was able to get everything I wanted at day 60, with the exception of Space 220 Lounge.
