Mercury Posted July 31, 2019 #1 Share Posted July 31, 2019 I have made restaurant reservations at both Specialty restaurants and Taste/Savor/Tropicana Do those with reservations still need to join the queue for the majority who line up without reserving a particular time? Or do they have a separate "fast track" line for those with reservations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare shof515 Posted July 31, 2019 #2 Share Posted July 31, 2019 each restaurant has a check in desk in front of the restaurant. i never seen any long queue to be checked in. If there is, it is quick process that moves fast 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's as effecient as a land based restaurant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercury Posted July 31, 2019 Author #4 Share Posted July 31, 2019 I can see this is the case at the Specialty restaurants but what about Taste/Tropicana where the queues can get very long at peak times? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KateQ22003 Posted July 31, 2019 #6 Share Posted July 31, 2019 I see long queues for the MDR all the time on the Dawn. All the way up the staircase and down the hallway. I have never seen any of the hostesses ask if anyone in line has a reservation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nola26 Posted July 31, 2019 #7 Share Posted July 31, 2019 (edited) I have, on the Dawn. Go to the podium and ask if they want those with reservations to step forward. If you'll be on time for your reservation even with the queue, I would not stress about waiting, it's a Freestyle Vacation.

tomk3212 Posted August 1, 2019 #8 Share Posted August 1, 2019 On the 'Away class there are sometimes long queues at opening time (5PM) and the last few times we were on Get/BreakAway at the MDR they shunted pax with reservations to one side of the long aisle that leads into the MDR & the rest to the other side. Most of the reservations were parties of 4 or more (one family had 25!!! 😮) so that made sense as those tables require extra prep time by the wait staff. At Taste/Savor they will sometimes separate those with reservations to one side of the check-in desk & those without to the other side. Same deal there; those with reservations were usually parties of 4 or more. Specialty restaurants require reservations, I believe, so it's all one line. Can you just "walk-up" to a specialty restaurant w/o a reservation & get in? We've never tried but based on this discussion I'm now wondering if you can...🙄 We almost always eat early (5-530PM so I cannot speak to wait times at peak hours.
