A Few Things to Know Before You Dine

Reservations are strongly recommended at most Disney Springs table service restaurants, especially on Friday and Saturday evenings and during peak travel seasons. Dining reservations open 60 days in advance and can be made through the My Disney Experience app or on the Disney World website. The most popular spots, particularly The BOATHOUSE, Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’, and Morimoto Asia, can book out weeks ahead for prime dinner times.

No park ticket is required. Disney Springs is free to enter and has complimentary parking in its garages. You do not need a theme park reservation or park admission to dine here.

Menus change seasonally and are always subject to update. I have noted the general cuisine and vibe for each restaurant, but always check the current menu before your visit through the My Disney Experience app or the restaurant’s official page.

The BOATHOUSE

One of the most complete dining experiences at Disney Springs, The BOATHOUSE sits right on the water with a menu built around American seafood, steaks, and chops.

Best Disney Springs Table Service Restaurants: Our Recommendations

With so many excellent sit-down options, here are some recommendations based on what you are looking for.

Best for a Special Occasion

The BOATHOUSE is the top pick for a celebratory dinner, with its stunning waterfront setting, serious steaks, and excellent raw bar. STK Orlando is another strong choice if you want something upscale and energetic rather than quiet and formal, with a rooftop patio that is hard to beat. For the most culinarily ambitious experience in all of Disney Springs, Jaleo by José Andrés delivers world-class Spanish tapas in a spectacular dining room that feels genuinely special.

Best for Comfort Food

Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’ is the clear winner here. The fried chicken is legendary, the biscuits are extraordinary, and the whole experience feels like a warm hug. Raglan Road is another excellent choice if you want hearty, creative comfort food with live Irish music and step dancing to go along with it. House of Blues rounds out the list with its Southern and Louisiana-inspired menu of shrimp and grits, jambalaya, and BBQ ribs in a lively atmosphere.

Best for Families with Kids

Rainforest Cafe and T-REX are the obvious picks for families with young children who want an immersive, theatrical experience alongside a reliable American menu. Splitsville is a wonderful option for families who want something interactive, combining bowling with a surprisingly broad menu of pizza, sushi, and burgers. Terralina Crafted Italian is the most family-friendly of the more traditional restaurants, with a wood-fired pizza menu and pasta options that appeal to all ages.

Best for Date Night

Enzo’s Hideaway wins this category for atmosphere alone. The intimate speakeasy setting tucked beneath the streets of The Landing is genuinely romantic and unlike anything else at Disney Springs. Wine Bar George is another wonderful date night option, especially for wine lovers, with an approachable and impressive wine list and a small plates menu designed for sharing. Morimoto Asia is the pick if you want something stunning and impressive, with a dramatic two-story dining room and a menu full of showstopping dishes.

Best for Seafood

Paddlefish is the go-to for serious seafood lovers, with its extensive raw bar, whole Maine lobster, and fresh daily catches served aboard a beautifully restored steamboat. The BOATHOUSE is a close second, with an equally strong raw bar and a menu that combines excellent seafood with prime steaks. For a more casual waterfront seafood experience, Paradiso 37 offers Latin-inspired fish tacos and shrimp dishes with great margaritas and patio seating.

Best for Lunch

Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’ serves one of the best brunches in all of Disney Springs, and its lunch menu is equally satisfying and more affordable than dinner. Frontera Cocina is another excellent lunch pick, with Rick Bayless’s regional Mexican cooking at prices that make it one of the better values among Disney Springs table service options. Wolfgang Puck Bar and Grill offers a solid lunch menu of wood-fired pizzas, pastas, and fresh fish in a comfortable, relaxed setting.

Best Hidden Gem

Enzo’s Hideaway is criminally underrated. Many guests walk right past the entrance without realizing it is there, and those who find it are consistently rewarded with excellent Roman pasta, a genuinely atmospheric setting, and a quieter experience than the more prominent waterfront spots. Maria and Enzo’s Ristorante is another gem, set inside one of the most beautiful dining rooms in Disney Springs with house-made pasta and an elegant but unpretentious atmosphere that makes it a wonderful choice for any occasion.
