Rainforest Cafe ADR Question

[chdice]

We are heading down for 10 days in September, with two more parties (with 4 adults and 4 kids) meeting us 4 days into the trip. We want to plan a dinner at the Rainforest Cafe in DTD for the day they arrive (Saturday). I'm not sure what to do as far as an ADR, just in case there is some unforseen issue - flight delay, etc. Do I make the ADR for the 7 of us that are already there and call that day once everyone has arrive at WDW to increase the reservation to 15 (is that even possible)? Do I make the ADR for all 15 and hope for the best? Just take my chances and walk up that day with 14 other people? I wanted to make the ADR because during our last trip 2 years ago I didn't and the only seating we could get was outside (and that was for only 5 of us). My daughter loves the Rainforest Cafe at home, so I'm sure she would be thrilled to go there while in WDW.

Thanks for your help!

I would make it for 15 and stay positive! Everyone will get there on time. On the off chance they don't just call as soon as you find out and explain that due to a flight delay your group of 15 is now a group of 7 (or however many can make it)

It would be easier for them to take a smaller group and let someone else take the extra table rather then suddenly have to find an extra table for your group.

Thanks I just didn't want to get stuck with any sort of penalty fees if for some reason not everyone can make it, and I didn't want to take the chance of walking up that day for a reservation with a party that big.

I can't guarantee there won't be penalties but if you give them a lot of advance notice and are pretty nice about it they may help you out...especially if you are still coming, just reducing the party size, so it's technically not a cancellation
