New Fall 2024 Menu Coming Soon to Space 220 at EPCOT (Photos)

Hi everyone!

Space 220 restaurant at EPCOT celebrated its 3rd anniversary yesterday! We were invited out on Thursday afternoon to try all the new fall dishes arriving on October 14th – nearly the entire dessert menu will be new, and a couple of appetizers and entrees will be changed as well.

Space 220 is probably the most popular restaurant at EPCOT as it is an experience you can’t find anywhere else.

At Space 220, you board the Space Elevator and arrive to the Centauri Space Station. Read our review from last year that shows more of the experience of arrival.

Here is a look at the new dishes for autumn.

The Grow Zone Sprouts Salad is vegan and gluten free. This includes roasted Brussels sprouts, frisee, whipped ricotta, pickled onion, orange, pumpkin seed, and a maple-Dijon vinaigrette. The Brussels sprouts are so good here. (The Grow Zone Sprouts Salad will replace the Big Bang Burrata).

The Neptuna Tartare is a different recipe than the one that has been on the menu until now. This comes with Bluefin tuna, wasabi-avocado, pineapple and a mango pani puri. It is dairy free.

I enjoyed the Mangala Roasted Chicken a lot. This is an Indian inspired dish, with spiced marinated chicken (though not really spicy) and red pepper, carrot, and tomato. This is gluten free and comes with coconut rice that has a consistency close to rice pudding. (The Mangala Roasted Chicken will replace the Slow Roasted Crystal Valley Chicken ).

The Nebula Grouper is a pan seared spiced grouper, with roasted parsnip puree, Swiss chard and walnut butter. Jeff was surprised how spicy it was, and it was a hit with him and the table. (The Nebula Grouper will replace the Grilled Swordfish).

The entire dessert menu except for gelato and sorbet is being replaced.

The desserts at Space 220 are gorgeous, so beautifully plated. They are also delicious! The first one here is the Bode’s Swirl, with lemon chiffon, berry compote, and a toasted marshmallow meringue.

The Cosmic Cheesecake features chocolate cheesecake, chocolate crumbs, raspberry gel, and the chocolate dome. We were told this was interactive in that guests will crack the dome open (which we did).

The Capella consists of maple mousse, orange curl, cranberry orange blondie and chai cream. This was the only dessert I didn’t end up trying, we were presented with platters of each for our media table.

Here is a look at the desserts plated.

We received these platters that included several desserts each for our group.

In the front is the Lunar Carrot Cake, which is vegan. It includes cream cheese and candied pistachios, which can be seen on the plate and candy piece. The orange dessert is the SOL, consisting of a chocolate tart, coffee sponge, hazelnut crunch, coffee mousse and cherry gel.

There are a variety of unique cocktails, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. My favorite is the Illumination, which comes with Bacardi, Malibu, passion fruit, blood orange, pineapple, lime sour, and plenty of passion fruit boba pearls.

This is my Illumination drink, along with the P²OG with Malibu, passion fruit, tangerine, guava, and pineapple.

There are also Space 200 Collectible trading cards, which have become popular as well. These are designed for the restaurant and are only available at Space 220 and come with the purchase of a kids’ meal or a zero-proof cocktail.

This is a more rare find, from the Space 220 Culinary Series. This card is handed out exclusively by Space 220’s executive chef to select guests; not available in any packs and features holographic foil graphics.

Here is the back of the card.

The view is “stellar” from 220 miles up!

 

The menu at Space 220 has regularly changed with the seasons, which makes it even more of a repeatable restaurant. There is a 2-course prix-fixe menu for lunch and a 3-course prix-fixe menu for dinner. We always recommend it for guests looking for a more unique dining experience.

Thank you to Space 220 for having us out. All views are ours.
