    What non-Epcot restaurant is closest to the Int'l Walkway? Which non-Epcot restaurant is closest to the water taxi that GOES to the Int'l walkway? Trying to figure out for ADRs, parking, and fireworks! Thanks - you are all so helpful

    There are several great restaurants that are close to International Gateway of EPCOT.  Cape May at the Beach Club would be a mere five minute walk to this entrance.  It is a buffet style dinner serving all the good foods you might find at a New England Clam Bake and more.  Just a little further down you will see the Yachtsman Steakhouse.  Again it is a short walk or you can catch the water taxi at the Yacht Club marina.  Just off the lobby of the Yacht Club is the Captain's Grill.  This is kind of a quiet little retreat!  From past experience I have found that waiting for a water taxi often takes more time then if you just made the walk to the entrance from any of these places.

    On the other side of the lake you will find the Flying Fish.  An excellent restaurant that has many other choices then just the fish from its name.  Spoodles is right next door for a more Mediterranean taste and even closer to the entrance is the ESPN club if you also want to catch the latest sports news while you dine.

    There are also great dining spots in the Swan and Dolphin hotels.  From there I would take the water taxi to the International Gateway.
