Candlelight Packages

[brent2124]

I checked online for dining reservations for my trip December 10-12th and found many available restaurants and times available. I called to book a Candlelight Package and they told me the only available restaurants were Tokyo Dining, Nine Dragons, and Restaurant Marakesh. Does WDW only allow a certain number of reservations at each retsurant to be booked as a Candlelight Package? Out of those which would you pick.

Yes, they limit it as seating in the theater is limited.

Nine Dragons is pretty much basic Chinese food, Marrakesh is a nice experience. Food is different without being challenging and there is live entertainment. Tokyo Dining is nice as well.

Never ate at the other two, but we really enjoyed Marakesh. DD had the lamb, and I had some sort of combo plate and everything was good. The backlava is to die for!! Didn't get to see the belly dancers, though.

When I was making my ADR for the Candlelight Processional I was booking for the 8:15 showing and I could make my ressie for between 5pm and 6pm. So they would allow 1/2 of the normal ADRs between 5pm and 6pm to go for the Candlelight Processional and the other half for regular non-CP seating.

Of the three restaurants you were given Marrakesh has my vote. It's our restaurant of choice. We always make a point of eating at Marrakesh whenever we go to Epcot. It's our must do.

My DH & I enjoyed Nine Dragons when we went, but I doubt we will go back. It was good but there wasn't anything really special about it.

We have chosen Marrakesh for upcoming trip in December. I'm happy to read good things about it in this thread, makes me feel more confident about our decision.
