Hi Richard!
I bet you are getting excited about your upcoming vacation in July! You can make your
advanced dining reservations 60 days in advance online or by calling 407-WDW-DINE. The 60-day mark is coming up soon on May 24! All you need to do is log into Advanced Dining Reservations on the
Walt Disney World website and begin selecting the dates, times, and restaurants that you would like.
You mentioned that you are staying at a
Walt Disney World Resort Hotel, so you can make reservations for the first day of your vacation up to 10 days out from your check-in date.
My Disney Experience will have your resort, dining, and park reservations, so you can see everything at one glance.
I have a few suggestions for dining as well! My favorite place to dine in
Magic Kingdom is
Crystal Palace. Their salad and freshly baked pretzel rolls are amazing! At
Epcot, try to score a table at
Coral Reef. The view of the aquarium and the food are both amazing.
If you like character dining,
The Garden Grill restaurant in Epcot offers a meet-n-greet with Mickey, Chip and Dale, and Pluto. Chef Mickey's is a wonderful dining location for meeting the Fab Five (Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Pluto, and Goofy).
I also love
Hollywood & Vine at Disney's Hollywood Studios for Minnie's Seasonal Dining! Minnie, Mickey, Donald, Daisy, and Goofy join the fun. Another one of my favorite newer restaurants is
Topolino's Terrace – Flavors of the Riviera at Disney's Riveria Resort.
I hope you have a magical vacation!
Magically,
Stacy
