    Hello. We are visiting in Nov and would like to go to Via Napoli @ Epcot for dinner one night. And Yak and Yeti's @ Epcot another night. However, I am not buying AK park passes. Is it possible to go to one of the AK rest without a park pass?

    Hey There, Hi There, Ho There, Elisabeth!

    Welcome to planDisney! We are THRILLED you stopped by and are honored to help you plan your upcoming trip to Disney World! Get ready for a journey filled with MAGICAL moments, delicious treats, and endless laughter around every corner. From thrilling attractions to unforgettable character encounters, every day will feel like stepping into a new adventure. I can already tell this is going to be a vacation you’ll remember forever!

    Oh, I love that you are already planning meals as part of your Disney adventure—food really is half the fun of the trip! While you can definitely enjoy Via Napoli at EPCOT since you will have a theme park ticket (and their wood-fired pizzas are legendary), you won’t be able to make a reservation for Yak & Yeti at Animal Kingdom without a park ticket since it’s inside the park. The good news is Mickey offers plenty of other amazing spots that can give you those same Asian-inspired flavors. One fantastic choice is Morimoto Asia at Disney Springs, where world-renowned Chef Masaharu Morimoto has created a menu filled with mouthwatering pan-Asian dishes in a stunning setting. If you’d like something a little more laid-back, try Morimoto Asia Street Food at Disney Springs for bold flavors and quick bites. Over at the Polynesian Resort, Kona Cafe blends island and Asian influences perfectly. (I ate there in March, and it was AH-mazing!) You could also check out Teppan Edo in EPCOT (since you’ll be there for Via Napoli), where hibachi chefs cook right at your table for both dinner and a show. With so many great options, you won’t feel like you’re missing out at all. In fact, you might just discover a new favorite dining spot outside the parks!

    As you continue to plan, make sure you check out the Disney Parks Blog for the most up-to-date information regarding all things Disney. Mickey and his pals have some incredible surprises planned, and we don't want you to miss any of the fun!

    If you have other questions, please do not hesitate to ask. We are here to help in any way!

    Have a MAGICAL day!
