I just checked Open Table for next Wednesday and noticed some availability at Terralina Crafted Italian, Raglan Road, Wine Boy George and STK in Disney Springs.

I enjoyed Raglan Road when I ate there in the past. They had live performers at the time too so it was entertaining.

I've only had apps at Wine Boy George but they were fantastic and the place gets great reviews.

I really enjoyed my steak at STK Orlando a few years back. The atmosphere is little different with an in-house DJ and I think most reviews are pretty split though.

We used the Walk Up list for Nomad Lounge last week while at Animal Kingdom. They gave us a projected wait time and then would text us when our spot was available. The only issue we had was that they only gave you 10 minutes to check in and the first couple of times there was no way we would have gotten there in time so we just rejoined the list. I know some waitlist have been filling up pretty quickly so you may want to try to join early if you want to go that route.

Is there a chance of eating at one these places like the 50s prime time or sci fi if I get on the list ?


I’ve never done it, so I don’t want to say unlikely but I wouldn’t count on it. I would just find out what time they open and immediately put my name on the list and just be prepared to hustle back when they text you. Since Disney charges $10 a head for cancelations inside of the 24 hour window, not sure how many day of openings pop up. But, that said, I’d just keeping randomly plugging away on the app right up until your day to see if anything shows up.

One more suggestion that may be worth trying if you haven’t, search on the app and also go to the website and search on there too if you aren’t getting anything on the app.

You can also purchase Mouse Watcher for like $2-5 each for restaurants you want. They send you a text as soon as reservation becomes available.

I did it for Sci-Fi Dine In and Oga's Cantina in Hollywood Studios.

Not at Hollywood Studios but just saw this where O’hana is reopening July 9. We’ve been there for breakfast and dinner and enjoyed both. Breakfast had characters with Lilo and Stitch and others, but looks like no characters for now.


Ohana and Sebastian’s Bistro get reopening dates at

ORLANDO, Fla. – Walt Disney World announced Tuesday the reopening dates for two popular dining locations on resort property. Officials said Sebastian’s Bistro at Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort will reopen to guests on June 24 while ‘Ohana at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort will open July 9.

At 'Ohana, a breakfast menu will include the popular pineapple, coconut bread, Mickey Mouse waffles and egg skillets with ham, sausage and breakfast potatoes. The dinner menu will include all-you-can-eat platters of grilled beef steak, roasted chicken, sausage and island shrimp casserole served with fried rice and roasted broccolini. ‘Ohana pot stickers, crispy soy chicken wings and the signature ‘Ohana bread pudding served with caramel sauce and vanilla ice cream will also return with the restaurant’s reopening.

When ‘Ohana opens character dining will not available but Disney said a strolling musician will entertain guests for dinner. Last week, Disney said Animal Kingdom’s Tusker House Restaurant will open June 20.

Bookings for both Sebastian’s and ‘Ohana will be available June 10.

Tusker House in Animal Kingdom is going to reopen in June and has started taking reservations. It was very popular because Donald and Daisy and other characters hung out there.

Just saw that starting 6/15, they are dropping the mask requirements unless you're on Disney transportation (buses, monorail, etc.)

What is this? did you have to do a mobile sign up to ride the rides?

I am going at end of August JUST for hollywood and star wars world. Wondering if I need to try and schedule anything before I go...

Do you have tickets for the end of August already? If so, you’re only halfway done. You also need to make park reservations for the days you want to visit Hollywood Studios. The park reservations fill up and you might be locked out of Hollywood Studios at first. I would suggest doing that RIGHT NOW if you haven’t already.

If you find that Hollywood Studios is booked up, make other reservations and keep checking to see if reservations open up. People change/cancel reservations up to the last minute so you never know.

Also, if Hollywood Studios is such a huge deal to you, consider reserving more than one day there. That will help increase your odds of getting a boarding pass/ticket to Rise of the Resistance. Go to YouTube and look at recent videos on tips to getting a Rise boarding pass.

Disney is adding more capacity over time so you might get lucky.

We have not bought tickets yet. I thought that there was a 60 day window for making reservations, so we were going to do it all at once next week.

I will be check out some of the youtube videos today, TIA.

* I have been checking their calendar and August "all parks are available" still. *

ETA:
I just did some digging on Disney website, there is only an option to join a virtual que at 7am the day you are scheduled. So after you buy tickets it's a waiting game till day of....For now...
Disney Que on Park date

You can make reservations for the specific parks whenever you buy your tickets. Dining reservations are available at the 60 day mark so I think that people are doing like you are and trying to do it all at once. But why take the chance? Buy your tickets and reserve park passes ASAP and it’s one less thing to worry about. Once you have your park reservations done, you can draw up a dining schedule and see what you can get as soon as the reservation system opens at 5:00am CST on the 60 day mark.

Boarding passes for Rise are available at two times during the day but only if you have a reservation at Hollywood Studios for that day.

I actually agree with this. I think I'll buy the tickets tonight. The logic is there. Does anyone know if they are still doing discounted tickets after 2pm? We want to go drinking around the world at epcot but didn't want to do park hopper or buy a full day ticket since we will spend most of the day in Hollywood. I know they used to do it but with covid and having to make reservations I'm not sure if this is still a thing.

Post a review of the attraction when you get done. As a Star Wars fan, it's the best attraction Ive ever done.

I’m sorry - I don’t know about the discounted tickets but I thought I’d share a link to a list of restaurants that are open at WDW. The list gets updated periodically.

No...you will need to buy a hopper and can only hop starting at 2pm each day right now.
