    My partner and I are doing a kid-free, park-free impromptu foodie visit to the resort. We would love suggestions for a great lunch/brunch, delicious cocktails, and a stellar dinner. Must be able to use our Disney Dining Gift Cards at the locations.

    Happy New Year, Sathiyyah! I am so glad to see you back at planDisney, this time with a question about a kid-free holiday at the Most Magical Place on Earth.  

    For the ultimate foodie experience, The Dining Room at Victoria & Albert’s is the pièce de résistance for fine dining at Walt Disney World Resort. I have friends who have dined here, and when they talk about it, dreamy looks wash over their faces. This restaurant offers two tasting menus each night with exquisite culinary creations.

    California Grill will always be a sentimental favorite for me. I dined here with the planDisney Class of 2024. The menu is divine, and the views are breathtaking. We enjoyed dinner and stepped outside to watch Happily Ever After. It was the perfect evening!

    Topolino's Terrace – Flavors of the Riviera is popular for Breakfast à la Art with Mickey & Friends character dining. In the evening, the decor and ambiance take center stage. Drawing inspiration from the French and Italian Riviera, the menu has everything from Filet Mignon to seafood and pasta. It also has a fantastic bar. If you cannot get a dinner reservation here, my friend Jenna recommends an evening at the bar, just in time to catch Luminous The Symphony of Us from the rooftop terrace. The views bring some of the theme park magic to you.

    Jiko - The Cooking Place is another fantastic experience – for dinner, for drinks, for the animals. This is a love I share with my friends Lizzie and Jennifer. We are huge fans for so many reasons. 

    If you are looking for a little more casual, Scat Cat's Club is a treat! And it has been known to have live jazz on weekends. Go for the beignets. Stay for the drinks.

    Trader Sam's Tiki Terrace is iconic for drinks. How can you not have a great time at a bar inspired by the Jungle Cruise? Disney's Polynesian Villas & Bungalows is also home to Wailulu Bar & Grill, which Jennifer says is magic with its vibe and views of Cinderella Castle.

    Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa is absolute perfection! Brunch at Grand Floridian Cafe is delish! And the Enchanted Rose has so many fantastic drinks. As Ursula declares, "Life's full of tough choices. Isn't it?"

    I hope your trip is magical perfection. If you have any other questions, you know we are always happy to see you here at planDisney!

    Cheers!
