What are the odds?

of getting a reservation for dinner at Le Cellier for end of October?

[IloveDisney71]

Have you already called to try and make a reservation? If not, I would try asap. All they can say is they don't have anything available. You can always call back periodically before your trip to see if there have been any cancellations. It's worth a try. People have to cancel plans for any number of reasons. There loss could be your gain.

There is no harm in calling....or calling and calling until you get an ADR. :)

One piece of advice...call now and call often. LeCellier is one of the more popular restaurants at EPCOT so it does get full rather quickly. Also try for odd hours as sometimes you might be able to get a late lunch/early dinner. You can also just ask if they have any avalability on the day you want to eat there. Believe it or not, this past Saturday there was actually walk ups being taken with only a 30 minute wait at several of the restuarants at EPCOT.

Try it! I NEVER plan any of my trips more than two months in advance, and I was able to get a ressie there during our last trip with no problem. Good luck!

1) Slim and None, and Slim is . . .
2) Sorry, couldn't resist.
3) Keep trying, you just never know.
4) It is a long short, but long shots do come in.
5) You can always try, try, again.

I called for ADRs a couple of weeks ago for Le Cellier for a party of 5. They could not accommodate me for dinner for the entire week I will be there, unless I wanted to split up my party. We are giong 10/28-11/4.

The point of our trip is to spend time with the family, so I booked an ADR for lunch instead!!

17.5% by my calculations

Note: That percentage applies each time you call. (each time separately not cumulatively due to the law of independent trials) While this calculation was based on empirical probability and logistical regression analysis, there is a margin of error of approximately 15% per call due in part to resistance generated by others calling for the same reservation, then ceasing to call after a period of time. As people continue to call and fail, fewer will call back. This effect shifts the equilibrium point creating a rise in your base chance to get your ADR each time you call.

So basically, call and keep calling ;)

Are you sure it's not 17.494949494949 repeating? That's what I get.

Depends on your party size. We called and got a ressie about 6 weeks out for two th eweekend after Labor day, I was surprised. Never hurts to try!

[Mommy2boys]

I called a few days ago. No room for dinner so we are going for lunch instead

[CuteAsMinnie]

I'd think they'd be pretty darn good.

Now I have to add my 2 cents... we had the most horrible dining experience ever -- in or out of WDW. We ended up having our entire meal for a pary of 8 comped. That's quite a bit of $$$$ so you know it must have been horrible. But, I know the vast majority love the place. Good Luck!:blush:
