    I have the Disney Dining Plan for 2025, arriving last week of January. I've noticed many of the restaurants have not yet confirmed they will be taking the plan in 2025 yet. I can reserve next week should I go ahead and reserve now or wait?

    Hiya Wayne! 

    Welcome to planDisney! You are in a difficult situation and I'm sorry that your planning is on hold for a bit. I'm surprised that the restaurants for 2025 that are to be included in the dining plan have not been fully finalized yet.

    It is very normal to see more restaurants slowly get added to the list of dining plan restaurants over the year. There is a good likelihood that more restaurants will continue to be added as details get ironed out. I reached out to a Cast Member to confirm, and they informed me that there is no information available regarding the addition of more restaurants that will accept the dining plan next year. I have to say that I have been watching the list for a bit and see that it has grown over the last few months and I expect it to continue to grow over the next few months. 

    I suggest to be safe you pick restaurants that are currently noted as accepting the dining plan in 2025. If you have a restaurant you really want to check out but it's not yet on the list I suggest you make that reservation while keeping an eye on the cancellation policy.  There are 175 dining options available at this time and I see some pretty fabulous options. One that stands out to me that many people don't know about is Toledo-Tapas, Steak & Seafood located at the top of Gran Destino Tower at Disney's Coronado Springs Resort. Delicious food with an amazing view! 

    I'm sorry I don't have better news but I hope this was still helpful!

    Happy Planning!
