Restaurants in Lake Buena Vista

“Thanks Emily A for the amazing service. We had a fantastic meal!”

“Sam (our server) and Angeline (our Sommelier), along with a very nice young man (been there about 8 months) who brought us in (sorry I didn’t catch his name) made sure we wanted for nothing. We asked for suggestions and they delivered all the way through dessert!! Professional, engaging, and genuinely nice people! Oh, and the food!!!!”

“Awesome place ! Gipsy was great too”

“We love WBG...for the food, wine selection and ambiance. You don't feel as if you are in the Disney chaos. We had a cocktail then appetizers and wine selection. Adrian never dissapoints....great knowledge and service.”

“truly a 5-star experience.
As a salted caramel lover, I have to say I absolutely loved how well-balanced and flavorful the ice creams were.
The salted caramel flavors really stood out without being overwhelming. Everything tasted high quality and thoughtfully made. I’ll definitely be coming back.”

“Absolutely incredible! Everything I thought it would be. The crab Rangoon dip, Ahi Tuna Nachos, and Cantonese Pork Belly Bowl are delicious! So glad I came and will return every time I visit Animal Kingdom. Highlight of my trip.”

“This was by far my favorite restaurant experience of my life! The food, the service, the vibes…. All AMAZING! Capa deserves all of the praise and I will never stop telling people about how much I love this restaurant!”

“Absolutely awesome place. The interior is so incredible I can't fully describe it. Animatronic Dinosaurs, rain forest thunder storms. Kids will love it, adults too.”

“First time this week while on vacation which turned into a second time yesterday. Food is top shelf and service is great. Highly recommend and I know we will be back when in Orlando in the future”

“Rainforest Cafe is amazing, they have really great food and the staff is great as well. Our server Raychelle did a FANTASTIC JOB! she was very helpful! Service and atmosphere and food was awesome! The bathrooms we're clean as well, store was fun to look around at. I will definitely come back to this place! The food came out fast as well and was fresh! The only downside I would give about this place is, If people are coming just for the rainforest Cafe there should be separate parking so we don't need to pay $30 for parking, other than that it was a great time!”

“One of the best dining options in Disney Springs by far! Definitely order the fried chicken, it’s stellar. I highly recommend the deviled eggs as well, but all the food we ordered was fantastic. The moonshine flight was delicious and SO fun (all the drinks had a kick to them but weren’t overly strong)! Service was fantastic too, will definitely be back.
Possibly helpful note - on the Disney app it said it was fully booked all day, but we walked up as a party of two and didn’t wait at all for a table. Depends on the day and time I’m sure, this was on a weekday during lunch, but try your luck!”

“Good for the money. The spare ribs and ramen were very good. Fried rice was fine, but nothing to stop traffic about. Dumplings were good, but not delicious. I'd prefer a bit of chili oil or a little chili crunch, maybe some green onions.”

“A Flavorful Evening with Stellar Service We stopped in for apps and drinks this evening and had a fantastic experience. Our server, Nayeli, was outstanding—attentive, knowledgeable, and quick with spot-on recommendations. The clothesline bacon was a definite highlight. A savory-sweet indulgence, but what really surprised me was the rosemary garnish. Just a touch of it with each bite completely opened up the flavor—adding a subtle, aromatic layer that elevated the whole dish. It's an unexpected twist that truly works. Also, shoutout to the bar: the scotch Old Fashioned was one of the best I’ve had—easily in my top five. Balanced, smooth, and clearly made with intention. Highly recommend for anyone who appreciates bold flavors, thoughtful cocktails, and sharp, attentive service. We’ll absolutely be back.”

“Awesome restaurant Great vegan options.”

“Great sandwiches. Cuban and Italian for me”

“Delicious and fun!! Our waitress was extremely friendly too!”

“This place is in a beautiful location. The food was good, but I felt for the price was a little underwhelming. My wife said her steak and lobster were perfect, mine was a little tougher. I was upset by a minor server issue. Shockingly to me they brought my son and I our food and placed it in front of us while my wife and daughter were sitting without food. I thought a place presenting this level of class would serve ladies first. Luckily the food was ready, the wait staff (not our waitress) just had to go back and get it in a second trip from the kitchen. I also felt the charcuterie board was interesting but not worth the associated price for this diner. My daughter got the King Crab Leg appetizer that was $49 - it was ONE leg. It was large... it was good... I just wish she got a cluster, not one singular leg. Especially when it lists a half pound of steamed crab legs.”

“Lightning speed for us when we placed our order. Less than 30 seconds from pushing the button “we’re here prepare our food” to “pick up ready”. Delicious! The cold cuties oranges are refreshing addition to your meal!”

“100000% YES!! The main reason we went to Animal Kingdom was for Nomad Lounge! No joke we were on a mission! Looking for a quiet place to grab a drink, food & watch the characters float by then you are at the right place. You can’t go wrong with anything off the menu either. We wanted the churros & not just any churros, the gluten free churros with the strawberry-guava sauce & vanilla crème. Delicious!! You get 5 in an order & you can even get them to go so you know we took an order with us too. They get a 15/10 so next time you are in Animal Kingdom run & get them! You don’t have to have a gluten allergy to order & enjoy these either!!”

“if it takes 3 people to move your kids head to not touch the hight bar to say there not 40" then there 40". He can go on bayou adventure and tower of terror but no to soarin and test track. bulls**t”

“Customer service is amazing! We had late reservations and the kids were hungry. They let us check in and took us back as soon as they could. Food is delicious. We would eat here again! Best place yet out of all of the parks. We highly recommend!”

“We stopped by the Baseline Tap House for an afternoon snack. Ordering was quick and easy, and there were plenty of available tables. Shared a cheese platter and pretzel with mustard. The cheese platter was inexpensive and better than expected. Great option at Hollywood Studios if you do not want a meal.”

“We are Tiki aficionados and have wanted to visit for a long time. It was worth the wait! Amazing Cocktails and food! Atmosphere is totally immersive. The bartenders and servers are fun and engaging ( IYKYK ;) )! Definitely will return!”

“I hadn't been to this restaurant since I was a child, it was fun to return as it brought back many memories. We dined here last night prior to the Not Scary Halloween party and it was perfect. The server was great and the punny jokes were fantastic. We enjoyed ordering off the secret menu and my husband loved all of the adventurer club decor including the fake door of library books. The food was amazing and the experience was wonderful. Thanks Disney :)”

“Delicious food and amazing service !!”

“Delicious bubble waffles and crepes!”

“One of Disneys best. A bit of a secret in Grand Floridian but love it”

“Not one of the best places in the park to stop at but they do have fast counter food service and refreshments. There also are some drums, as part of their theming, so the kids can play with them and have fun, plus it has shade. Not the best but a good option if you are nearby.”

“Who wouldn’t want to eat at two time Tournament of Champions casual dining restaurant in Disney Springs?!
We ordered the tandoori chicken poutine and a garlic naan for a late afternoon snack.
It was delicious and not too much that we were full from it before our dinner reservation three hours later.”

“Kim was our server on Thanksgiving, and her customer service was truly exceptional. She went above and beyond to make our experience enjoyable, and she even had fun interacting with our children, which we appreciated so much.

We also noticed the table next to us giving her a very hard time—particularly one extremely rude man. We felt terrible that she had to deal with that on a busy holiday night, but she handled the situation with such grace and professionalism. Honestly, whoever that man was could use an attitude adjustment, as even his family didn’t seem happy to be around him.

Despite all of that, Kim stayed positive and continued giving her very best to everyone she served. We were incredibly grateful for the care and kindness she showed us. Thank you again, Kim, for taking such wonderful care of us on a holiday night. You truly made our experience special.”

“It was very good overall , a little bit dissapointed about the Chicken and Waffles . The Waitress was pushing too much to order even when we have 30 minutes Before kitchen closed .”

“The restaurant was gorgeous , especially the Christmas decorations. The food was delicious and our server Sammy provided excellent service and made our meal memorable.”

“Megan made us feel like family from the moment we stepped into the restaurant. She and the staff ensured that our three birthday guests felt extra special. Food was delicious but the service made the difference and it was a fantastic evening.”

“Marcus and Karrin were exceptionally attentive to all needs and recommendations were on point. Karrin is a fabulous mixologist. Cocktails were on point. Go enjoy a meal here.”

“Just the most magical time!!! We had dinner reservations at 8:30 and had requested a window seat for the fireworks since it was for my birthday! I got a champagne flight which was very good and complimented the dinner and dessert. I had the shrimp for the appetizer whereas the kids had the pork belly. All of it was perfect. For dinner I chose the lamb which was tasty and cooked to perfection. And dinner was beautiful and tasted great! It is a more costly dining experience at Disney but it is just that AN EXPERIENCE!!! Purely magical!”

“We loved it! So did the little one! We would definitely go again! ✅”

“Everything was great. They had everything you could want for a brunch. Only issue is that our seating was nearly 30 minutes after our reservation time. The reason was a shortage of staff - a server just to get our drinks.”

“Food and services was amazing”

“Justin our waiter was amazing! He answered all our questions and was great to just talk with him… He is VERY knowledgeable and all around amazing waiter… He went above and beyond for us we will always request him…”

“My husband and I got breakfast here and were really impressed. The omelet and pancakes are so good. Our server was attentive and fast. Walking by the pastry kitchen added a little sweetness.”

“Our experience was phenomenal. We had a large group of 11 and our service was fast, food was hot, and everything was fantastic. Our server Uriel was very friendly and charismatic and even danced for us. He made it a great experience ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Jovanny went above and beyond to accommodate us!! Great place, great food and atmosphere 10/10 would absolutely go again”

“Lots of great BBQ, tasty sides, delicious desserts served family-style! Even my picky eaters loved it! Wear your stretchy pants for this one!”

“Went to the Disney Springs location tonight and it was great! Friendly staff, great food for a great price. With it being a little chilly outside for Florida the outside heaters were great. It was a great experience and I would highly recommend this restaurant. Will definitely be back.”

“Perfect spot for a late afternoon treat. Brought life back to our tired (and whiney) kids! The server was extra magical and gave us an extra treat (on Mickey) so that our kids didn’t have to share!”

“Wow, this hit the spot! It's hot, and I am tired from all of the walking, lol. So right in front of us is the Sunshine Tree Terrace. A quick stop 'n go type of place that offers soft-serve ice cream. Their special is this citrusy flavor called Orange Cream Float! The price was $5.29. It reminds me of the creamsicles from years ago. I'm happy again!”

“I got the chocolate peppermint cookie Sunday Loved it a little melted but delicious �. Cast member was very nice.”

“The wait tends to be long as they often only have one employee handling the cash register and the drinks, but this is one of the best choices in the park for pint size beers.”

“Delicious ice cream a must”

“Great food for a reasonable price❤️”

“Not super impressed or anything, but glad they had vegan cheese and vegan chorizo. Tons of other topping options. It was good pizza, just not revolutionary lol Updated from previous review on 2025-12-26”

“Enjoyed my Mickey waffles for daily breakfast during my stay.”

“Our family of two adults, a 10-year old and an 8-year old ate here during our two week stay in Disney World.\n\nAlthough we were staying over in All Sports Music, we took a trip on the boat from Magic Kingdom to eat here. It was nice to get away from the crowds but really it's about the bison burgers which was excellent. You can have it rare, medium or well done. \n\nAs it was a pleasant evening, we decided not to book into the main restuarant and used the takeaway service. There's seating outside near the geysers.\n\nWell worth the trip for these tasty bison burgers. Enjoy!”

“Good food, quick service restaurant, inside dining.”

“The chef cooks a nice, large, and very flavorful turkey leg that can be served with a requested cup of water. It is large enough that it is recommended to share. I wish for more nice outdoor seating. 🦃 🪑 🇺🇸”

“Love the ketchup delivery!”

“Great food and great service”

“Character dining and delicious food!”

“Love the cast members very friendly”

“What a unique and amazing experience we had at Epilogue! As a Florida native, I especially loved the tie in to Florida history. From the scavenger hunt style check in to the knowledgeable narrators that served up the delicious cocktails, this was a definite highlight of our trip and highly recommend this hidden gem!”

“Such an Amazon place to relax and unwind and friendly staff too!!”

“Bartender Jacob at Dahlia provided incredible service, with a welcoming persona and showing genuine interest in how our trip was going. Jacob provided great drink and food recommendations.

The Shrimp Pil Pil and the Bocadillo were outstanding.”

“We enjoyed the Turkey and Brie Sandwich with chips and the Yule Log. Both are excellent. This Disney owned Patisserie is on our must-do list each time we visit Disney Springs.

There is plenty of indoor seating or outdoor seating in adjacent courtyard areas. We chose the outdoor option to enjoy the holiday decorations and super playlist.”

“Love this place, the ambiance is great, great jazz music and the beignets were delicious!”

“The milk everfloweth here. Blue is my favorite, but mix green and blue for a real treat. May the stars light your way.”

“A very cool experience. The food is tasty too!”

“Great service from Chance. He checked on us frequently with an enthusiastic and friendly presence. Our day by the amazing pool was very relaxing. Kids enjoyed the watersides and waterfalls while we relaxed.”

“Great tasting salad. However was disappointed that they no longer carry Tusker beer. Our server said it was taken out a while ago, before he worked there. So then pls update the menu on your website.”

“Pong & Nicole are amazing. Seeing them first thing in the morning is a great way to start a Disney kind of day.......every morning we start with a coffee & tea from Kona Island, so glad to have them back...”

“最近愛上它😍酸甜酸甜的😋”

“We picked up the Yeti Sundae and it was just what we needed on a hot day. Snow capped chocolate ice cream piled as high as the Himalayas with blue frost sprinkles and a Yeti chocolate lurking on the tip. (Snow is made with vanilla ice cream)”

“First off…I couldn’t believe how good the mai tai was. I’m a serious connoisseur of tiki drinks and was genuinely stunned by how good it was. PS, I had my drinks whilst floating around in the pool and hot tub. Quite frankly if you don’t have 5-star fun at Banana Cabana you don’t deserve to go to Disney, or the Caribbean Beach Resort. In fact, I 100% doubt anyone has ever had as much fun at this bar and hotel as I did.”

“Thanks to Chief Williere, our visit at the Disney Caribbean Resort was truly magical.
Due to specific dietary restrictions, our family had unique food needs. Chief Williere took the time to personally handle our requests and ensured we were provided with the most delicious meals during our visit. His kindness and commitment to exceptional customer service made a lasting impression on us.
We are truly grateful and wanted to share our appreciation for such outstanding hospitality.”

“They provide quick customer service. I midday enjoy eating in the area surrounded by trees. They make some unique items. Their night blossom nonalcoholic specialty drink is beautiful and refreshing. The pongu lumpia is simply unique with a nice filling inside a slight crunchy shell for a nice side snack. I wish to revisit and order again. I appreciate how they nicely complement the surrounding atmosphere through a different touch of some food.

“Awesome place ! Gipsy was great too”

“Absolutely terrible food and horrible service! Don't bother complaining to the manager!”

“Shout out to Ashly C! She was so nice as our server and attentive. Welcomed us in and explained the PH to our guest first timers. We had the Kobe burgers that are on point. Have had them 3 times. Every time the chefs nailed them. Yes we are addicted to them! 😎. Great service, food and drinks!”

“Jovanny went above and beyond to accommodate us!! Great place, great food and atmosphere 10/10 would absolutely go again”

“Our experience was phenomenal. We had a large group of 11 and our service was fast, food was hot, and everything was fantastic. Our server Uriel was very friendly and charismatic and even danced for us. He made it a great experience ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“From the moment we walked into Il Mulino New York Trattoria at the Swan Hotel the service made this experience truly unforgettable. The food was outstanding. It was fresh, authentic, and full of flavor, but what really set this Italian restaurant apart was the personalized attention from Carmelo, Pedro, Steven and the rest of the staff. Every recommendation felt thoughtful, every detail remembered, and we were made to feel like valued guests rather than just another table.

Carmelo went above and beyond to make the evening special, always checking up on us and creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere that elevated the entire meal. Amazing food is easy to find, but service like this is rare. We’ll absolutely be back and not just for the incredible dishes, but for people like Carmelo, Steven, and Pedro who made my family feel so well taken care of.”
