Hi there, Holly! Welcome to planDisney!
All of the
delicious dining options are one of my favorite aspects of a
Walt Disney World Resort vacation, so I am so happy to help you with this question! Reservations for table service restaurants are highly recommended and can currently be made 60 days in advance. As a
Disney Resorts Collection Hotel Guest, you will be able to make your dining reservations for the length of your trip (up to 10 days) 60 days before your arrival. So since your arrival date is August 3, 2023, you should be able to begin making your Walt Disney World Resort dining reservations on June 4, 2023.
Since you have a few months before you can begin booking your dining reservations, this would be the perfect time to start checking out restaurant menus on the Walt Disney World Resort website to get an idea of which restaurants you might like to try. If you're interested in a fine dining experience, you can't go wrong with either
California Grill or
Topolino's Terrace - Flavors of the Riviera. Both of these restaurants boast top-notch food and spectacular views. For a fun character breakfast, I would suggest
The Crystal Palace. The chance to visit Winnie the Pooh and his friends while enjoying a buffet that includes churro Mickey waffles makes this one of my favorite breakfast spots in all of Walt Disney World Resort. It is worth mentioning that since you will be staying at
Disney's Port Orleans Resort - French Quarter, you'll be just a quick
boat ride away from
Disney Springs, where you'll also find many great dining options.
Wine Bar George,
Chef Art Smith's Homecomin', and
The BOATHOUSE are a few of my favorite Disney Springs restaurants.
Holly, if you need any additional restaurant recommendations or any other vacation planning advice, please visit us again. See ya real soon!
