    How do I book dining reservations for my stay at Disney World?

    Hi Paula and welcome to planDisney! We’re so happy you found us here and stopped by with your question. Dining is one of my absolute favorite parts of a Disney vacation, so I’m always especially excited to help with these questions!

    Advance dining reservations can be made exactly 60 days prior to your check-in date. It looks like you are arriving in late March, so your booking window is likely already open. You’ll want to start thinking about where you might like to dine because some of the popular locations book up early. I can help with that, too!

    To make your reservations, visit My Disney Experience either on your computer or mobile device. If you are staying in a Disney resort hotel, be sure to first link your hotel reservation confirmation number in My Disney Experience. This will allow you to make dining reservations for the length of your stay (up to 10 nights), even if the later part of your stay is not yet within the 60-day booking window. Once you have that linked, just click on Reserve Dining and enter your party size and date. You can also refine the search by entering a preferred time and location if you’d like.

    Now let’s talk about some mouth-watering dining locations! You really can’t go wrong because dining throughout the Walt Disney World Resort is a truly magical experience. However, some of my favorites are 'Ohana at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort and Narcoossee’s at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa (both close to Magic Kingdom), Boma - Flavors of Africa and Sanaa at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge and Animal Kingdom Villas - Kidani Village (both close to Animal Kingdom Park), Chefs de France and Garden Grill Restaurant at EPCOT, and Ale & Compass Restaurant at Disney’s Yacht Club Resort (a true hidden gem near Disney's BoardWalk and EPCOT).

    Paula, I hope this helps as you get ready for amazing dining experiences during your upcoming visit to the Most Magical Place on Earth! If you have any more questions, please send them my way. I’d love to help you continue to plan a vacation that is “practically perfect in every way!”
