This last Friday (June 27) we decided we would eat dinner at the Turf Club. We were looking for a 6:00 PM reservation.
I called at about10:00 AM, and Disney Dining offered me two times. 5:15 and 8:00 - I took 5:15.
At 5:15 we went to check in, and there was a grand total of 6 people (NOT 6 tables, 6 people, a 4 top and a 2 top) in the entire restaruant. We ate slowly and when we left around 7:00, the restaruant was about 1/4 full.
When we checked in, I mentioned to the host that I had tried for a 6:00 PM reservation, but none were available. He was clearly taken aback and then made up a half baked story about sometimes there being tables available at a given time, but WDW-DINE tries to space out arrivals so that the restaruant does get get a rush. It was funny to watch him try and make an excuse up, he just sort of trailed off at the end.
