What TIME are RESORT restaurants EMPTY?

[leopardspot]

Just wondering which restaurants are EMPTY or close to empty at what times? I am bring a baby that is not suppose to be around alot of people and am wondering if we will be able to go out to eat or have to order room service the whole time!!!
We are staying at the Wilderness Lodge but we have to objection to driving to a different resort if it is deserted!!!

THANKS

I have never been when one is fairly empty, but others may be able to help

I would guess middle of the day ie. late in the lunch seating time period. We ate at Whispering Canyon at the WL with a late PS only to find the dining room maybe 1/3 filled. It was the day after Thanksgiving, which is a very busy time.

Good luck!

We always found the Concourse Steakhouse to be pretty deserted mid-day. When we were staying at the Contemporary and stopped in for lunch, it was very quiet in the area. I can't really remember exactly what time it was but it was definitely in the middle of the day. It wouldn't be far for you guys to go anyway! Good Luck!

The Kona Cafe at the Polynesian was pretty empty (1/2 full) before 9am on my last trip this May. You might want to send an email to WDW dining, they might track this kind of stuff and give you off dining times. Good luck!

My DH and I like to eat early on our trips. Since most days in the "World" start at 6AM, dinner at 5PM or 5:30PM isn't out of the question, plus it is a nice time to get out of the heat and get a little rest before the parades or fireworks.

Try the first PS for the evening. In March we found most places pretty empty, we got better service from CM, and everything was very fresh and hot. For quiet places try Yachtsman Steak House - YC, Chefs de France - Epcot, Le Cellier - Epcot, The Brown Derby - MGM, The Plaza - MK, Jiko - AKL.
