Best "easy to get" reservation?

What restaurant that's "easy to get into" is your favorite? We tend to find that Liberty Tree Tavern is an underrated favorite, but it's getting harder and harder to get into. I'm having trouble coming up with a new one.

I think Biergarten is oddly easy to get into! I'm not sure if it's because people don't like sharing tables or what, but it's a great meal and a fun atmosphere.

Our stand-by is usually Wolfgang Pucks in DTD. It's good, and we can usually get in last minute, but it's not very unique to Disney. If you sit outside it can be fun people-watching. One year when we were there it was the opening of one of the Star Wars movies. I never realized how many adults would dress up in Star Wars garb for that! It was a great time.

I wonder if they did other stuff to coordinate with Star Wars back then.

Not for the first...or should I say, fourth. We were CMs at the time, and stood in line on opening day to see it at Pleasure Island. No costumes or any hubbub. I think SW Days at DHS started after that; I don't really remember SW hullabaloo waaaaayyyyyyy back then (late nineties.)

Kona! We've walked up there several times & we've never ever had a problem getting an ADR.

By now everyone knows how much I like the Turf Club at SSR, and it falls perfectly into this category as well. Reservations are reccomended but are easy to get and and we have even been seated with no reservations.

Kona is a great suggestion for a walk-up. I've heard mixed reviews of Turf Club. I'm guessing by how often you go, you consider it a safe bet VL? Sometimes when some people think a restaurant is great and others are unimpressed it's because it's inconsistent, but I'd guess with how often you go you'd have seen it if they didn't have their act together.

I think the word is getting out about Kona! We saw some serious lines there on our last trip. It's a great restaurant, though, so definitely worth the try!

I agree! It is one of our favorites and is nice and easy to get into!

That's a good one too..we never have a problem making an ADR for anytime there.
