Things may have changed but last December, but before the 15th and Last April, but after the fifteenth, we did not have nor did we need reservations for lunch or front chairs. Can't remember any further back than that but I know we've never made reservations in the past, but if we were planning on going on the weekend, which we most likely wouldn't....., I would definitely make them. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />
