Welcome to planDisney, Sandra! Thanks so much for asking this question. I'm glad you found us!
I'm happy to hear you have a
Disneyland Resort vacation planned for this summer! I have visited with a travel party this size and I know sometimes making dining reservations for a large party can be a challenge. With a little faith, trust, and pixie dust, hopefully, you will be able to get the dining reservations you wish for! You can make
advanced dining reservations up to 60 days in advance of your arrival date. Because you will need to make multiple reservations that add up to the number of people in your dining group, you will want to enlist the help of a couple of other people in your travel party. The dining reservations system will recognize that you have already made a dining reservation for the same time and would likely require you to cancel the other one. If you are unable to reserve all of your tables for the exact same dining time, I would suggest trying to reserve tables within 15 minutes or less. These reservations cannot be linked, however, you can request to be seated together upon arrival. If you are able to, I would suggest stopping by the restaurant as early in the day as possible to make this request so that cast members can do their best to accommodate your request. It is not guaranteed that you can all sit together, but I have found in my experience that they will do their best.
Some restaurants that are likely to accommodate a large dining party to be seated together would be
Wine Country Trattoria at
Disney California Adventure Park,
Storytellers Cafe at
Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa, and
Goofy's Kitchen at the
Disneyland Hotel. Any of these restaurants would make for a great dining experience!
Wishing you luck in getting your dining reservations! If you have any additional questions, please visit us again at

Smiles,
