California Grill ADR! and double digits...oh yeah!

Whoop whoop! last piece of the puzzle is in place! Got an ADR for 4 on the day we wanted at 745. We were hoping for 830ish....but this way we can have an after dinner drink in the lounge and then head out on the observation deck if we finish early

Monday is my favorite day this week! 99 days and the elusive Cali Grill ADR

clapping clapping yay yay biggrin

Congrats! I just got 9/28 at 7:40. I figure the first Saturday of F&W will be pretty crowded, so I'll check out CG. Looking forward to it.

Got it! 7:10 PM on Friday, December 6th. Now I just have to decide whether to stick with the California Grill or hit the Flying Fish (my back up reservation in case I couldn't get the Cali Grill). The menu at Flying Fish looks so good, and my parents love Epcot, so the Boardwalk will be convenient, but then again its the new California Grill with a clear shot of the Magic Kingdom Fireworks. Hmm...decisions decisions!

That's funny Kris....I did the same thing, I had a back up that I cancelled at the flying fish too....for us it's no contest, we are going with a couple who has never been to Cali grill so it's a must!

I'm so glad everyone seems to be having success securing their adrs...The system crashed a few times on me but other than that it was pretty straight forward (I assumed that there would be atleast a little tech hiccup knowing the emmesnse demand)

Did most people book online? I imagine getting through via the phone would have been quite difficult

Congrats everyone for getting your ADR's at Cali Grill. Unfortunately, KenJ and myself leave for home on Sept 8th, so will have to wait until our next trip to eat there again. Make sure you all take lots of pictures (the new digs and the food), so we can all see it and I will live vicariously through you. biggrin

California Grill seems like the place to be!!! I managed to get a reservation for the Feb trip. The oak-fired filet and the sundae trio look SO good!! You all convinced me it was worth it! Is it one dining credit or two if you are on the dining plan?

There have been two times open for Sept 10, 2013 for a few days now for Cali Grill. I'm surprised they haven't been snatched up yet.
