Mama Melrose Fantasmic Package Help

[wvdisneyfamily]

We make our ADRs on Sunday! :sohappy: However, of course, we are making last minute changes to our plans. We are thinking about trying the Fantasmic Dinner Package at Mama Melorse. H&V is out for us because of a past terrible experience; Brown Derby is out because it is a signature. Anyway, I have a list of questions. I would appreciate any quick answers (before Sunday at 7AM) you may have to offer. Thanks!

1. Is this still one DDP credit?
2. What is the menu?
3. How is the food?
4. What Fantasmic show do you get reserved seats for? We are looking at the 15th of June. Right now there is only a 9:00 show, but if they add an earlier one, I don't think I would like it as much. Fantasmic is better later at night.
5. Do the reserved seats offer a good view?
6. How much time do we need to allow between the reservation and Fantasmic time?

Another worry I have is rain. I'll be upset if it rains and I waste this credit. However, I'd be upset if I waited in line forever and it rained. There's no real answer for this one, but I just needed to vent.

I agree 100%

By the way, we did thr Fantasmic Dinner package last month and are very happy we did it. Earlier in the day, CMs were telling people without the Dinner Package to line up 2 hours before the 7 p.m. show. We got there at 6:15 and walked right in and got our seats in the reserved section even though it was standing-room-only everywhere else in the theater. By 6:30 p.m., two CMs took away the rope separating our section from the rest of the theater, and within a minute or two the flood of people totally filled the (formerly) reserved section.

This makes me glad I got our dinner (Hollywood and Vine) package reservation done. This was the ONLY thing my son absolutely had to do on our trip in June so I had to make sure he wouldn't miss it. A band (Nightwish) he likes LOVEs this show and I believe has even had some of their music in the background?

DGD gets princessified and DS gets Fantasmic...WOOT!:sohappy:

The food at Mama Melrose can go either way. It is not true Italian, but it is good Italian American food. I have had better luck at MM than Tutto Italian/Alfredo

As far as the menu and pricing for the Fantasmic package. The pricing and menu are differant not to beat up on Monty:wave:. It is definately only one TS credit.
One of my absolute favorite meals in WDW is the Veal Osso Buco @ MM. It is absolutely :slurp:. With the fantasmic meal you get a coice of flat bread pizza to share, bread on the table with a basil based pesto and a sundried tomato based pesto to smear on the bread, then you have a choice of deserts and it comes with your choice of soft drink. The package is well worth it.

If it were me I would say go for it and try MM. The Fantasmic package seating goes really fast @ MM, so it may be tough to book.
