CG vs Wave/Top of the World Opinions

[BraveFam]

Hi all! We have an ADR for 5:30 at The Wave for our upcoming trip. Our original plan was to have dinner and then head to the Top of the World (we are DVC members) lounge for relaxation, drinks, and late night snacks/apps to watch the fireworks. However, I saw a 9:30p reservation for CG. Are we better off sticking with the original plan or hope that we get seated right away for a 9:30 res at CG? We have not been to Top of the World yet, or California Grill. Thanks in advance for your opinions/ideas.

With ANY ADR at CG you can access the viewing deck either before or after your meal. (Even if you go to brunch at 10 am).
So by taking the CG ADR, you could be seated early or late and still view the fireworks.
Don't know about Top of the World...
