Bonjour, Bob! I'm excited to see that you'll be arriving at the Walt Disney World Resort later this month!
Thanks for bringing your question to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. I was just at Disney's Riviera Resort not too long ago and I hope that you love it as I did. The European flair throughout the property is unlike any of the other Disney Vacation Club Resorts.
Topolino's Terrace- Flavors of the Riviera is a great choice for a couple's night out. The views and the ambiance are stunning. If you are hoping to sit in the outdoor bar and seating area, the Cast Members have said that reservations are highly suggested, however there is also a bar located within the restaurant that might be perfect for you and your wife. Before you hear "bon appetit" it might be helpful to take a look at the
dinner menu in advance and know that evening dining hours are 5:00pm - 9:30pm. Seating is limited at the indoor bar, so it might be beneficial to get there early. If you enjoy your experience at Topolino's Terrace- Flavors of the Riviera, let me also suggest you stop by
Le Petit Cafe in the morning for a Caffe Latte and then stroll the grounds with your caffeine in hand.
However you choose to dine, I hope you and your wife have a Magical vacation.
Au revoir!
