Weird.... I just called Morimoto Asia to ask about a December reservation.

She said I could make a December reservation, so I told her the date and time. She then said that I couldn't make a lunch reservation for December yet (I wanted 1:30 pm). She said I could make a dinner reservation. She suggested I make a dinner ressie, then call back after November 1st and change the time to lunch.

Then in the next sentence, she said that the restaurant doesn't open to the public until November 1st. I also heard another person in the background tell a patron that they didn't open until November 1st as well, even though their Facebook page states they opened September 30th.

So, what's the deal? Are they open or not? I also wasn't able to make a ressie for December on Open Table, either (lunch or dinner).

Sorry I seem so confused, but the person I spoke with was rather unclear and not very helpful.

Thanks.

From what I have been able to find out, it is walk up only until November 1 and I think only for dinner. After that, you will be able to make reservations through Disney Dining. Regarding Open Table, you usually can't make reservations at a restaurant through them until 60 days out. When are you going in December?

They were open last week when we were there, is it possible she meant they don't open for lunch until November 1? Open Table is accepting reservations through October 1st. I believe November 1st is also the date that reservations will switch over to Disney.

The food looks delicious. I love sushi. My family not so much but Looking at the menu I think there might be something they can find that they would like. I would really like to try this place in December. I can plead its my birthday month and this is where I would like to go.

Thanks for posting the fabulous pictures.

As a person who abhors Asian Cuisine, I can say that so far I have only found maybe two things on the Kid's Menu that I would consider trying. And it is disappointing for my wife because ever since we've gotten married (11 years) she has been trying to get me to like Asian food but she has only gotten as far as her Beef and Snow peas and that I will only eat it if she makes it at home.

I hope your family can find something they enjoy so you may enjoy this place. As much as I enjoy watching Chef Morimoto on Iron Chef, I can't, at least from this menu, seeing myself eating there.
