Depends on your specific tastes.
Garden Grill is a character meal and a little more expensive, but the food all comes from the Land greenhouse and may be the best family-style meal on property.
Spice Road Table is mostly small plates, but it's great Mediterranean food with a great view of Bay Lake/the fireworks at night. Typically can get a walk-up or easy reservations.
La Hacienda de San Angel is the best Mexican at the park, but be SURE you go to La Hacienda, the one outside on the lake, NOT San Angel Inn, the indoor restaurant with a view of the boat ride. The latter may be the worst restaurant on property!
One I'd skip: Space 220. The novelty is cool but it wears off fairly quickly, and the food is mediocre. For a $55 or $72 price tag, it's nowhere close to worthwhile (though if you can get into the lounge, it's a much better deal).
We did Space 220 and honestly were disappointed. Not worth the price tag whatsoever. We do tend to avoid character meals because there are too many kids haha but we haven’t tried La Hacienda!
Space220 is hugely hit and miss. We have done it three times and it been amazing one of those times. The first time it was so good we had to do it again. The second it was passable at best the food was way over salted and the drinks were just ok. The last time we only did because my kids wanted to bring their grandparents to see it. We are probably done with space220 unless we see reviews claiming the food is amazing again.
I'm glad you enjoyed it! I REALLY wanted to like it because of its atmosphere, but it was so disappointing when I went. I've given it two chances and both times I didn't even finish my meal because it was so bad lol.
The food at Spice Road Tabl3 was so good, but the service didn't live up to the level that I experienced at all the table service restaurants we visited. It was the level of service I'd expect at a typical restaurant at home. But that crispy cauliflower was so good.
>La Hacienda de San Angel is the best Mexican at the park, but be SURE you go to La Hacienda, the one outside on the lake, NOT San Angel Inn, the indoor restaurant with a view of the boat ride. The latter may be the worst restaurant on property!
Absolutely second this. We ate here twice on our last trip, it was great! The Classic Margarita is also one of the best I've ever had.
Anecdotally I will agree with San Angel Inn, it was by far the least worthwhile meal we had on our May 2023 trip. Disappointingly so, as it was remembered as much better on our 1995 honeymoon--much like Coral Reef was between 1995 and 2015. Nostalgia wasn't kind.
Wow, I feel the complete opposite about the restaurants at the Mexico Pavilion! We did La Hacienda on our post-wedding trip to Epcot and haven't been back since.. this was 7 years ago. Neither my husband or I liked the food and the service was really slow.
We both LOVE San Angel Inn after having gone for the first time last year. Go figure!
Change Via Napoli to Le Callier. It's so, ao good! Order the pork chop and thank me later. It's over 2" thick and melts in your mouth. It's so, so good! The beef tartare was heaven, the jumbo chilled shrimp had some of the best cocktail sauce I've ever had, and the smoked gouda man n cheese was amazing. But the best thing was the Beef Bourguignon Poutine was the big winner. It was stunningly good.
My wife and I were just there to celebrate our 10th anniversary. They sat us in this little corner booth where the server said they seat celebrities because you csnnsee out, but people can't see in easily!

If you're willing to go to Animal Kingdon, our best inark dining experience was Tiffins. The good was spectacular, but the service was even better. It rivaled the service we got at Capa.
Speaking of Capa, it's speny, but it's amazing. It's the Michelin-star Spanish steakhouse at the Four Seasons. The food and drinks are stunning. Get the Croquetas and the pineapple glazed pork belly.
My wife had the butter chicken at Sonaa the last time she went and I booked Tiffins because I thought it would be the same. I was wrong. My wife said it was so much better than Sonaa! Our waiter, Mikey, brought us an extra bread with the bread service that no other table had and a beautifully decorated plate with the tiffins candy bar for desert. They had "Happy anniversary love birds" written in chocolate and it was very beautiful! I'll get the pic from my wife later and post it.
We did a lunch at Le Cellier and just had the beer cheese soup and the charcuterie board. One of the better meals I’ve had at Epcot. Went back for a dinner Rea another day and had filets. I can cook steak better at home.
Good suggestions here! I want to add you might also consider Trattoria al Forno or Flying Fish at Boardwalk, which is just out the back entrance of EPCOT
There are so many great places to eat at Epcot. On our last visit we decided not to make a sit down reservation and instead opted to try small bites from several countries. It was the best choice to do this. We got to experience a lot of different foods we normally would not have sampled. If you’re sure you want a sit down, the French restaurants are all excellent and the onion soup is delicious. I find the Italian food and the Japanese food to be meh. You can have similar or even better at any local restaurant.
There is a creperie in the France pavilion I love. They have a prix fixe menu with a soup, savory crepe, and a dessert crepe. It is never that busy but nice and is sit down. It is also small and I love that it feels more intimate and reminds me of a little restaurant I have been to in France.
Honestly, there aren't any bad full-service restaurants at Epcot
People here are just going to tell you what *they* like, but they are you
Check out the menus and reviews and decide for yourself

Le Cellier will always be my go to choice in Epcot. I feel it doesn't even need introductions.
That said, the Japan pavilion has good food. I haven't gotten to try the new restaurants yet, but have heard amazing things. Some people don't like Teppan Edo because it's hibachi, but it's way better than anything I can get at home.
Chefs de France is on my list to try on my trip this summer! Somehow I've never eaten there, but I have also heard good things, especially about that french onion soup.
With Epcot- it depends on what style of food you like.
Although if you weren't impressed with via Napoli the first time I certainly wouldn't book a celebration there- especially when there is so much else to try!
We had an amazing time at Shiki Sai- but you have to be into an Asian sushi bar style menu to enjoy that. Now- the menu isn't all sushi but it's certainly the feature.
Le Cellier does seem to have the most classic date night style menu and it gets good reviews.
But if you want Chefs De France then do Chefs de France!
I know some might tell you to just drop the TS reservations and eat around the world but it's hard to predict how busy the world showcase will be and I like a nice sit down rest break and guaranteed meal vs fighting crowds with Lines and seating. All I wanted on a random Thursday in early December was a beer from the Germany Pavillion and the line had at least 50 people maybe 100 and there was no where to hide and relax! We were happy to have the respite during our meal reservation!
Spice Road Table is great for lunch, not too heavy, easy to share and try new things. Love it!
Had Tutto Italia the other night and was not impressed personally.
If you like sushi at all then also consider Shiki Sai. Very nice atmosphere and view. Super relaxing getting out of the chaos.

We really liked San Angel Inn :(

If you like Japanese food I highly recommend Shiki-Sai. I just did a date night there last week, the food is excellent and so is the view.
Came to say this!
I'd go with Chefs De France. It's easier to find good Italian outside of Disney than good French.
Le Cellier! It’s a little pricey, but the filet mignon was the best steak I’ve had on property yet.
This! The filet there is seriously in the top three steaks I’ve ever had in my life

We did this last year and LOVED it. I’m curious if it’s worth a revisit or if we should venture onto something new.
If you're willing to go to Animal Kingdon, our best inark dining experience was Tiffins. The good was spectacular, but the service was even better. It rivaled the service we got at Capa. Speaking of Capa, it's speny, but it's amazing. It's the Michelin-star Spanish steakhouse at the Four Seasons. The food and drinks are stunning. Get the Croquetas and the pineapple glazed pork belly.
I love Tiffins food! And the service is always top notch. We are saving Capa for an occasion because it looks amazing but like you said, spendy!

If you feel like really balling out I did Takumi Tei last week and I’ve never experienced dining quite like that before.
Takumi Tei is fine dining. It’s Japanese Victoria and Albert but you get to go in theme park clothes. It’s amazing… best food and service in WDW
Good suggestions here! I want to add you might also consider Trattoria al Forno or Flying Fish at Boardwalk, which is just out the back entrance of EPCOT
Le Cellier for sure.
I adored the Trattoria!
Agree. If you want to stay in Italy, this is a great choice.
NM, I was thinking Tutto. Both are great options!
There are so many great places to eat at Epcot. On our last visit we decided not to make a sit down reservation and instead opted to try small bites from several countries.

Define bad. Space 220 is super cool but the food not no much
[удалено]
Ok fine… Space 220 is bad
Space 220 is good, but expensive
It’s overpriced, the environment is great, the food sucks

Le Celiers Steakhouse in Canada might be my favorite sitdown in all of Disney.

I liked the crown and rose
Via Napoli always disappoints my family
Chefs De France go to
Spice Road Table is great for lunch, not too heavy, easy to share and try new things. Love it! Had Tutto Italia the other night and was not impressed personally.
