Waiting at California Grill

[Spaceship Tigger]

DW and I are heading to the California Grill for the first time in May. Wishes is scheduled for 10:00 so I made the ADR for 9:15. I was just wondering if anyone who had been around this time of the evening could tell me if they had to experience a long wait to get in. I read recently where someone said they had a 9:20 ADR and didn't get in until after 10:00.

Just wondering if we should back up the ADR a bit to make sure that we don't miss Wishes.

After check in you would be escorted up to the lounge/bar area to wait (so you can still access the viewing area if need be) so that's up to you..the tables clear out might fast afterward and mighty slow before it.

1) The odds are that you don't get a table until after fireworks.
2) People with tables usually stall until afterwards.

Even if there are no tables, you can still go up, have a drink, go out to the observation deck and watch the fireworks. We've actually never had a wait for a table, even when we've showed up over half an hour early hoping to linger with a glass of wine before our table was ready. We've always been greeted and seated right away. But, we've been happy to sit anywhere because we prefer to watch the fireworks from the deck.
