Was able to book Savi's for March dates this morning...
Congrats! We got our plans set up too, and we got the times we wanted!

Jabba Juice and Hyperdrive are the two NA drinks my kids had and they really enjoyed them.As I can't have an alcohol because of medication reason but I looked at the menu to see what were the drinks before going. I just hope I can find a good one lol The non alcoholic drinks haven't been getting good reviews lol
Oh no, I'm so sorrywhelp no trip for me. We had to cancel
Friends work denied his leave 2 hrs before we were set to leave
If you want a seat ask. We did twice and they got us a seat both times. If you don’t ask you most likely will be standing. You may just have to wait a little longer.Has anyone had any luck requesting a table or being able to use a stroller with a wheelchair tag inside Oga’s at WDW? I know I read people were able to request one at DL, but I’m not sure if WDW is following suit. DS needs to be able to sit in his own space. The rest of us are fine with standing. TIA!
Oga's was one of my favorite things on BatuuI honestly don't understand the negative reviews for Oga's, as I absolutely LOVED it! I think it must be a matter of expectations: I expected a bar with music, laughter, weird drinks, and a ton of SW-esque themeing - and I experienced exactly that. If I lived closer, I'd find a way to budget it once a week, lol! But yeah, if someone goes in expecting a full food menu, or regular drinks you can find anywhere else, or a sanitized "pretend" bar, I think they'll be disappointed. It felt like most nightclubs and bars I frequented in my youth, only Star Wars-y.
We went 3 times over the first 3 dayssome of the negative reviews are around how they were treated - how they are stuffing people at tables/high tops that are not big enough for the # of people they are putting at them, and how you aren't allowed (or at least they weren't) allowed to walk around and check the place out (some saying they were yelled at to get back to their spot).
So I think it has been mixed experiences. Many people have had really good times, but some people have had fairly negative ones and like a lot of things the negative ones are often the loudest
Funny never DH and I were shocked that in 3 visits we were seated twice. Never asked for anything specific. I figured odds are we'd by standing more than seated but we find the opposite. Thankfully. I prefer seatedIf you want a seat ask. We did twice and they got us a seat both times. If you don’t ask you most likely will be standing. You may just have to wait a little longer.

I guess I was a bit let down as we were SQUEEZED in there, I mean at a standing table that was meant for 5 or so and there were 9 of us, I mean there was NO room for the drinks we ordered and had to ask the others to please scoot in. It was HOT that day and the margaritaish drink with rosemary was disgusting to the point we only took 2 drinks from it. While I admire trying to make it SW theme but did the creator taste that junk? They missed the bar here literally as it should have been a full service bar as that might have justified the cost, I forsee it coming as it just was not that fun or good, IMHO to the point I canceled my second reservation...........
Yep, ITA. That's how I explained it to my son, who won't visit with me until the weather cools off. He has a hard time with loudness and lack of personal space, so I wanted him to really grasp what it's like in Oga's before deciding whether or not he wants to check it out.It's very similar to Trader Sam's, in the way it's set up. For those looking for a comparison
That is what happened to our server when he came with the first round of drinks for the other people at our table, there was zero room to move or even cool off, he was bumped good enough that the drinks split on his tray and was dripping wet when he placed it on the table almost to the point of him dropping it and the guy who bumped him did not even acknowledge and moved on. He did offer to get "clean" drinks but the others said it was fine. I dont get the allure of the place to keep going back and paying those silly crazy prices and feel like we were caged in, it was a def one and done for us, maybe, just maybe in a few years might wonder back in but no need now....Nobody should be asked to stand behind someone. That’s a safety hazard (in the way, more likely to spill) and a huge inconvenience to the people who have nowhere to set their drinks. I would ask to wait til there’s actually room for me.

I wonder if it will keep up with them pushing this many people in to it or if this is just since it is new ... I am all for a fun, packed bar, but this (and other reports) seem to make it a bit too much. I know the comparison is Trader Sam's but they don't let it get that packed in there (or at least I have never seen it like that)
I am sure we will want to go at least once anyway just to see it but we currently have two reservations for our trip in February and if it is still like this I could see us cancelling the 2nd one
