If you are visiting Walt Disney World as a couple or are just looking to escape from the kids for a night, you’ll be pleasantly surprised by the dining options on offer. I’ve compiled a selection of six fantastic date night dining options for couples, all of which offer a romantic atmosphere and incredible food.

California Grill, Disney’s Contemporary Resort

Head to the 15^th Floor of Disney’s Contemporary Resort, where you’ll enjoy stunning views over towards Cinderella Castle and the resorts of the Seven Seas Lagoon. California Grill offers some of the best food on property, and the menu uses seasonal ingredients. There’s something to suit everyone’s tastes here, including sushi, pizza, steak, or pasta. When the fireworks return to the Magic Kingdom, ensure you book your dinner reservation to coincide with the timing of that night’s fireworks display.

Jiko, Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge

This signature dining location at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge is perfect for an adult date night. You’ll enjoy sampling their unique menu items while enjoying their selection of South African wines. The food here combines African, Indian, and Mediterranean flavors, and popular menu items include the Oak-grilled Filet Mignon and the Moroccan Lamb Shank. After dinner, stroll around the resort and enjoy admiring the animals who call the Animal Kingdom Lodge home.

Victoria & Albert’s, Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa

If you are looking for the ultimate date night in Walt Disney World, head to Victoria and Albert’s. This resort has won the AAA Five Diamond Award and offers just one seating time per evening. The dress code is much stricter here than elsewhere on property, and men must wear a dinner jacket. You’ll enjoy eleven courses during your time here, so you certainly won’t go home feeling hungry.

Yachtsman Steakhouse, Disney’s Yacht Club Resort

Head over to the Yachtsman Steakhouse for some of the best steak on property. You’ll be seated in a New England-themed dining room, where you’ll enjoy an extensive steak menu. Of course, if you fancy something different, you can also enjoy their land and sea entrees, which include Whole Maine Lobster and a customized plant-based entrée. Make sure you save room for dessert, as their S’more Sundae and Chocolate Lava Cake are a highlight of any meal here.

The Edison, Disney Springs

For anyone looking for a fun and unique date night, check out The Edison at Disney Springs. This gothic-style restaurant serves American cuisine and an extensive drinks menu. The building is themed after a 1920s electric company, and there are a variety of themed areas guests are seated in. You’ll see various entertainment acts perform here throughout the night, so it’s both a dining and entertainment venue in one location.

Le Cellier Steakhouse, Epcot

Your date night at Walt Disney World doesn’t have to take place outside of the theme parks. Our favorite park for adults is Epcot, as there are so many fantastic drinking and dining options on offer. Le Cellier offers a cozy and romantic atmosphere for couples, and you’ll enjoy a wide selection of steaks and seafood at this Canadian restaurant. Don’t miss the Canadian Cheddar Cheese Soup for an appetizer, and the Le Cellier Filet Mignon is our top recommendation for your entrée.

If you would like to dine at any of these restaurants on your next trip to Walt Disney World, we recommend booking as early as possible to avoid disappointment. Walt Disney World offers so many great date night locations, where you can escape the kids for an evening and enjoy some time reconnecting as a couple.
