See How to Eat around EPCOT’s World Showcase with our Dining Guide

EPCOT has so many fabulous dining choices! Check out all of the restaurants here and see which ones you need to try.

Mexico

We will work our way around the World Showcase, beginning with the Mexico Pavilion.

San Angel Inn Restaurante

San Angel Inn Restaurante is a table-service dining location. Here, guests dine under a blue-lit twilight sky. This Mexican restaurant is modeled after a 17th-century hacienda at the base of Mayan ruins. Although tables are a bit tight, the feeling of eating outdoors is terrific.

La Hacienda de San Angel

La Hacienda de San Angel is a table service restaurant located across the path from the pyramid. It serves authentic Mexican cuisine from various Mexican regions. This restaurant boasts waterfront dining. However, this location isn’t open for lunch. Guests find various house-made salsas with all levels of heat here.

La Cantina de San Angel 

Mexico’s quick service is located on the waterfront adjacent to the Hacienda restaurant. At La Cantina de San Angel, look for tacos, empanadas, and churros. This is a great place to eat in air conditioning or open-air tables. If you time it right, you can watch Harmonious from your table.

Norway

The next pavilion you’ll come to after Mexico is the Norway Pavilion. Here, you’ll find princesses, authentic shopping, and more.

Akershus

Guests greet Disney Princesses inside a wonderfully themed medieval castle with soaring archways and cathedral ceilings. Sometimes, this location is seen as the “other” princess meal in contrast to Cinderella’s Royal Table.

However, we enjoyed Akershus more than Cinderella’s Royal Table because the Princess interaction is so wonderful here. See why we love dinner at Akershus HERE and breakfast HERE.

Kringla Bakeri og Kafe

Savor traditional Norwegian specialties like kringla sweet pretzels, sweet lefse flatbread, or the famous school bread. Then, enjoy Viking adult coffee! Beer is also available. This quick service location offers covered seating in front of the ordering area.

China

If you enjoy authentic Chinese cuisine, then don’t miss the China Pavilion.

Joy of Tea

While waiting for the show in China’s courtyard, I grabbed a couple of egg rolls and Hibiscus tea. Both were amazing and reasonably priced! The egg roll consisted of pork and cabbage/veggies. It had a fantastic crunch and was very fresh.

Lotus Blossom Cafe

If you want a quick and hot meal, check out the Lotus Blossom Cafe. Chow down on Chinese favorites here, like pot stickers, egg rolls, orange chicken, chicken fried rice, Mongolian beef, and more. Then, try the ginger ice cream! Plum wine and beer are also available.

Nine Dragons

Guests feast on Chinese cuisine with ornate wood carvings, traditional lanterns, and exquisite glass artwork. While the food isn’t necessarily top-notch, prices are reasonable for Disney standards.

Germany

Germany is one of the most popular pavilions for eating and drinking.

Biergarten

At Biergarten Restaurant, Oktoberfest is celebrated year-round with authentic German cuisine and lively entertainment. Here, the pretzel rolls are very popular. For a brief time, Biergarten was served family-style. However, it is back to buffet offerings.

Bier Stand

As the name implies, this walk-up window serves German beers. Germany is a favorite drinking spot for guests.

Karamell-Küche

The shop also carries pre-packaged popcorn that uses Werther’s Original Signature Caramel, house-made chocolates, and other assorted candies and sweet treats. The turtle candies here are excellent, too!

Sommerfest

Snack on delicacies at this walk-up eatery at World Showcase. Here, you’ll find bratwurst with sauerkraut, jumbo pretzels, German beer and wine. It’s tucked away in the back of the pavilion close to Biergarten.

Trinken Beer Stand

If you’re walking by Germany on the main World Showcase Lagoon path, be sure to be on the lookout for this cart. They serve German pretzels and beer. 

Italy

For fine Italian wine, perfume, and dining, take a look at the Italy Pavilion.

Gelateria Toscana

Treat yourself to authentic Italian gelato or sorbet. You can order these hand-scooped treats in a cup, cone or featured in a dessert. Also enjoy Italian pastries with a beverage, including soft drinks, Italian coffee selections, beer, and wine.

Tutto Italia

Relax in Old World ambience with your favorite Italian dish. On the outside patio or in the dining room, dine with murals of ancient Rome and sparkling chandeliers. Here, you can choose from a variety of appetizers.

Then, continue with entrees that may include pan-roasted fish, grilled steak and seasoned potatoes, and classic spaghetti and meatballs. Finally, order gelato, chocolate cake or crispy cannoli to complete your dining experience.

Tutto Gusto Wine Cellar

Experience the flavors of Italy at this cozy wine bar. Tutto Gusto offers over 200 bottles of Italian wine, beer and a small-plate menu of meats, cheeses, panini, pasta and desserts. Since it’s small, it’s quieter than larger Disney dining locations.

Gelato Cart

We’re not finished yet. There’s also a “donkey-drawn” cart offering Italian gelato adding to the feel of being transported far away from a theme park.

Via Napoli

Via Napoli is known for its thin-crust pizzas made with fresh mozzarella cheese, San Marzano tomatoes, and authentic Caputo flour (imported from Southern Italy)! The water for the dough is flown in and sourced from a spring similar to Italy’s Campania region. Check out our review of this restaurant HERE.

Japan

Japan is one of the most beautiful and relaxing of all the World Showcase Pavilions.

Garden House

Garden House is an outdoor sake bar in the courtyard of the Japan Pavilion. This is your quick stop for assorted Japanese sodas & beer, plum wine, and hot or cold sake. You will also find Coca-Cola products and seasonal smoothies.

Kabuki Cafe

At this kiosk, look for the Japanese favorites of otsumami-style sushi, edamame, kakigōri, assorted Japanese sodas and beer, plum wine, and hot or cold sake.

Takumi-Tei

Takumi-Tei means “House of the Artisan” in Japanese. This signature restaurant features rooms with natural elements: stone, wood, washi paper, water, and earth. Each dining room gives guests a private dining experience which is rare at Disney. The menu features premium seafood, sushi, and beef.

Teppan Edo

At Teppan Edo, every seat has an excellent view. This fun restaurant brings guests authentic Japanese cuisine. Not only that, but the dining experience is part meal and part show. In the communal ritual of Teppan-yaki-style cooking, skillful chefs chop and stir-fry dishes on grills at your table.

Diners at Shiki-Sai are immersed in Japanese culture and seasonal traditions. Old-world traditions blend with modern-day Japan, creating an enjoyable dining experience. This table service location features a variety of sushi and other popular dishes.

Restaurant Marrakesh

When open, Restaurant Marrakesh offers traditional Moroccan cuisine and live entertainment, including a belly dancer. However, this location remains temporarily unavailable. Now that Disney owns this spot, would you like it to reopen like before or incorporate a character dining experience?

Spice Road Table

Take in the flavors of the Mediterranean as you unwind at the waterfront restaurant. The menu at Spice Road Table features a selection of assorted small plates and cocktails.

Tangierine Café

Tangierine Café, one of the most delicious quick-service locations in Disney, serves authentic shawarma platters, tempting pastries, and specialty coffee drinks. However, since reopening, Disney rotates the menu here for festivals.

France

Some of my favorite dinings is found at EPCOT’s France Pavilion.

Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie

When you enter Les Halles Boulangerie-Patisserie, you’ll immediately be taken in by all of the beautiful dishes and tantalizing smells in this small space. Everything from quiches, sandwiches, and salads are served here.

L’Artisan Des Glaces

Delight your sweet tooth at this artisanal French ice cream shop. The English translation of L’Artisan des Glaces is “the ice cream maker.” Since all of the ice cream, handcrafted frozen goodies, and sorbet is made here, this is a perfect name.

Chefs de France

This charming location transforms guests into a French café with its wall of windows looking out toward the France Pavilion. Every time we walk by, these enormous windows draw me in. The table service location features creative French cuisine with simple ingredient combinations highlighting fresh flavors.

Monsignor Paul’s is a signature restaurant on the 2nd floor of the France Pavilion. Dining here, your senses will be delighted in the finest French Cuisine. The décor features classic French architecture with bright colors and a whimsical design.  Keep in mind that this dining location is quite expensive.
