Hi Rheanna,
Boy, am I excited that you stopped by planDisney with a question about my favorite restaurant at Walt Disney World Resort! I had to take a second just to sit and remember all of the incredible meals our family has shared with the top-notch Cast Members at
Steakhouse 71. From birthdays to
runDisney race celebrations, to new jobs, this has been our go-to stop. I just know you will love it! (Try the Vegetable Wellington. You won't regret it!)
I am happy to share with you that
Theme Park Admission Tickets are not required for your special meal. Instead, you will visit the first floor of
Disney's Contemporary Resort. If you are driving a personal vehicle, simply let the friendly Cast Member at the gate shack know that you have an Advance Dining Reservation, which I recommend highly. They will smile and wave you through to the parking area. Pass through the glass doors and walk straight to the back left corner, checking out the artwork on the way, to check in. You will be seated in no time.
Nighttime Spectacular entertainment surprises and delights Guests at various times throughout the night and at more than one theme park. Be sure to check your My Disney Experience Mobile App for up-to-date information for your visit. On August 6th, for example, Happily Ever After is scheduled at 9:20 PM at Magic Kingdom Park.
Tip: If you are enjoying dinner at Steak House 71 and would like to catch a glimpse of this beautiful show, there is a great place to watch from Disney's Contemporary Resort. Head up to the fourth floor and stroll out the glass doors just beyond
Bayview Gifts. Here, you will find the Observation Deck. Find the perfect spot and enjoy!
The
Disney Skyliner is a fantastic way to fly! It is an aerial gondola transportation system that connects Guests to Disney's Art of Animation Resort, Disney's Riviera Resort, Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort, EPCOT, and Disney's Hollywood Studios. It's beautiful, comfortable, and it is our favorite way to travel.
If you time it just right, you can enjoy some of
Luminous The Symphony of Us from your gondola! My daughters made this memory with my mother recently and haven't stopped telling me about it. They said that it was stunning and totally unexpected. This nighttime spectacular starts at 9 PM on August 6th at EPCOT.
Suppose you are traveling on the Disney Skyliner during the day. In that case, you can enjoy views of natural areas, beautiful Florida wetlands, Disney Resort hotels, and more.
I hope that was helpful, Rheanna. Come on back if you have any other questions. We are here for you.
Adventure is out there,
Sally
