If you’re anything like us, then deciding where to eat on a night out seems like it might take an act of congress before everyone agrees on a restaurant.
When it comes to dining at Disney Springs, there are seemingly endless choices. With another restaurant popping up every time you round a corner or take a step, deciding where you actually want to eat can be a difficult decision. Plus, if you’re with a large group, it can take even LONGER to decide. That’s where we come in!
We’ve been to every restaurant in Disney Springs, and we know the best restaurants for every type of palette and budget. If you need help deciding where to eat on your next night out in Disney Springs, you are in the right place, my friend. Let’s eat!
Best Restaurant for Picky Eaters
If you have a picky eater on your hands, then we suggest that you and your crew head to Chicken Guy! — Guy Fieri’s flagship restaurant.
This restaurant has chicken served just about any way you can think of — alongside classic American side dishes like fries, slaw, and even mac ‘n’ cheese. The portions are pretty large, too, which is always a bonus. There are even some sweets to choose from for dessert.
Best Restaurant for Date Night
Looking for a new date night spot? We have to recommend Morimoto Asia!
This is Disney’s Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto’s first Pan-Asian restaurant, which focuses on Chinese, Japanese, and Korean cuisines. The atmosphere here is great for date night — calm, elegant, and there’s even a lounge to enjoy some drinks before you head to the table. There is also an area where you can watch the chefs cook your meal from a window by the kitchen. Many of the dishes are partially prepared table-side so that you can be part of some of the fun.
Best Restaurant for Seafood Fans
For your seafood fix, we recommend that you go to BOATHOUSE!
Here, there are plenty of seafood options as well as options for your land-lovers. Specialties include seafood, steaks, and chops — and who knows? Maybe you’ll end up with a plate of both! They also have plenty of drinks and cocktails.
Best Restaurant for Cosplayers
If you’re into cosplaying characters from the lavish 1920s “Industrial Gothic” era, The Edison is the restaurant for you!
Whether you’re hoping to snag a burger and fries or just a few drinks, this restaurant features a wide range of classic American food and drink. The atmosphere is also well-themed and interesting to observe while you enjoy your meal.
Best Restaurant for Meat and Potatoes Lovers
If your idea of a nice dinner consists of meat and potatoes, you should head over to STK Orlando.
This restaurant boasts a modern twist on the American steakhouse, and serves up hearty portions of steaks, chops, burgers, and more — for lunch AND dinner! There are also several drink and cocktail options, and plenty of options for the most important meal of the day — dessert. An honorable mention for this one is Raglan Road Irish Pub, which is an Irish-themed bar and restaurant that has several great food options.
The dishes are modern twists on traditional Irish cuisine, which are both hearty and delicious meat and potatoes-based options.
Best Restaurant if All You Want is COOKIES
Listen. When it comes to cookies, nobody does it like Gideon’s Bakehouse does it.
The cookies are giant, warm, gooey, and absolutely delicious. They even have coffee, cakes, and other delicious treats and desserts. Plus, the theming is super spooky and fun. Flavors are changing all the time, so it’s fun to try all the new and rotating flavors,
Dessert Honorable Mention: If All You Want is Donuts
If cookies aren’t your style and you’re more of a donut person, head right on over to Everglazed Donuts and Coldbrew!
Here, you’ll find all sorts of gourmet donuts and coffee. Plus, the servings here are HUGE — perfect to share or keep all to yourself. The flavors change frequently, so there’s always something new to try!
Well, folks, what do you think? Does that help you out when it comes to making a decision on where to eat? We’ll be sure to keep you updated with any and all Disney news and updates — food suggestions included — so make sure to follow along for more!

What is the dish above you posted for Raglan Road?
Hi Elizabeth! That is the Dalkey Duo, which is Dalkey mustard beer battered Heritage pork sausages, Dalkey mustard mayonnaise and buffalo apple sauce. It’s currently $16.
I don’t know how any Disney Spring’s best list couldn’t include Polite Pig, Homecoming, Amorette’s and Ghirardelli.
Hi Jennifer! You’re not wrong! While it isn’t on this specific list, a good chunk of our team are Polite Pig and Homecomin’ fans. I rock my Polite Pig around town regularly singing its praises, haha.
We’ve eaten at almost all the restaurants save Homecomin’ and the Boathouse. By far and away, Morimoto’s is our favorite, but Ragland Road is in the running, too. We were also really happy with Enzo’s. The Edison had good enough food but the atmosphere was a bit too loud for any conversation with friends. Chicken Guy is, well, fast food. Pretty good fast food but, still…
