Hi Candace!
I might be old school, but I prefer to call my Advanced Dining Reservations (ADR) in at 407-WDW-DINE 180 days in advance at exactly 7:00 a.m. My daughter's favorite Walt Disney World restaurant is
Cinderella's Royal Table and I like to make sure that I get this reservation, above all others! I'm sure that the likelihood of scoring a reservation is the same by booking your
ADR on the Walt Disney World website though, so you can certainly use either method.
While you are booking your ADRs, consider a reservation at
50s Prime Time Cafe at Disney's Hollywood Studios, they have a fun atmosphere and great food.
Tiffins is a new restaurant at Disney's Animal Kingdom and it's delicious! The Wagyu Strip Loin and Braised Short Rib is wonderful! This is also a great restaurant for a large party, as there is plenty of space and many tables that will seat a large party.
Magically,
Stacy
