Yak&Yeti/Boathouse

[happymomof1]

A few years ago, when planning to dine at T-Rex, I know I called them directly and made a reservation for dinner. I'm trying to do the same at the Boathouse and Yak&Yeti, but I'm not finding another way to make reservations or get a hold of the restaurants except through Disney and an adr. Anyone have any info? Or, am I going to need to do an adr?
Will having a Landreys club card make a difference upon arrival assuming we do get an adr? Or, do we not need adr's if we're in the Landrys club? TIA!!!

Yes having the Landreys club card will help you get in. Just a heads up, the Boathouse at Disney isn't the same one as the Landreys one, so you do need an adr for that one. I was able to just call the restaurant directly last fall, but not sure if thats still true.

Aaaaah------that's kind of what I thought when I couldn't find another way to make a reservation. Thanks!

The Boathouse is not Landry's. It is available to book on Open Table

Landry's card does help with getting quicker seating at Landry's Club restaurants, like Yak & Yeti or Rainforest cafe.
Boathouse was overpriced and overrated in my humble opinion. I liked their dinner rolls better than anything else I tried, I ordered a salad with salmon, and tried the clam strips, and lobster bisque.

I was unable to get an ADR for Y&Y through Disney for last Nov. I googled it and then called them directly and got exactly the time I wanted. It turned out to be a good thing because we did not show up since I became ill and ended up in the ER at the time that we should have been eating. Because I had made the reservation directly, there was no 'no show' fee to deal with.

For Yak and Yeti, TRex or Rainforest Cafe, simply give them your Landry's Card when you check in. You don't need an ADR.

For the Boathouse, I would reserve through opentable.com. You don't need to give them a credit card, you'll earn points toward a restaurant gift certificate and if you have to cancel, you can do it on the fly on your phone.
