Was planning to make ADR at Ohana and then watch Wishes from the Poly beach. If I reserve closer to Wishes time AND don't get a window seat, how crowded does it get with ppl trying to see fireworks from resto? Which is better -- beach or resto for view?

Question

Answer 1

Hi Celestina!

'Ohana is my FAVORITE restaurant at Walt Disney World. My family actually had dinner there last night during Wishes. You can see the fireworks from *most* of the tables in the restaurant. If you do not have a table that has a view, there really isn't a place to stand and watch it within the restaurant. There is no guarantee that you will get a table with a view, but you can request it when you check-in. It's up to you if you want to chance it, otherwise, I'd suggest watching the show from the Polynesian beach. You can also see the fireworks from the waiting area outside of 'Ohana, but this area might be crowded due to the other waiting guests.

It's nice to see Wishes from the restaraunt, but watching from the beach ensures you getting a good spot and you won't be shoulder to shoulder with other guests trying to get a view from the window.

Have a magical day!
