Hi there, Tami.
Thanks for dropping by planDisney again with another great question for us. We love seeing readers return with more questions. Thanks for entrusting us to provide you with helpful information.
Dining reservations at Disneyland Resort are booked up pretty quickly, especially at popular establishments like
Blue Bayou Restaurant. I, too, am having difficulty getting a dining reservation at the Blue Bayou Restaurant for an upcoming trip with my family. I recommend checking regularly on
Disneyland mobile app or
Disneyland.com for occasional openings. People may cancel and reservations could open up, so keep checking to see if something else becomes available. Otherwise, you can try to join the walk-up list when you’re at Disneyland Park. In mid-June, on a trip with my fellow Panelist friends, we didn’t have a dining reservation for Blue Bayou Restaurant; we inquired about the walk-up list and were able to be seated after just a short wait. My other suggestion would be to check during “off-peak” times when the restaurant may be less busy.
I hope this information is helpful as you continue to plan a trip to the Happiest Place on Earth to celebrate your son’s birthday. As always, if you have more trip-planning questions, please don’t hesitate to visit us on
planDisney again. We’re all EARS!
See ya real soon,
Kiki
