Walt Disney World

Sebastian’s Bistro at Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort (Opening June 24 with nightly walk-in availability through July 4; bookings available June 10 for reservations starting July 5)

Sebastian’s Bistro is one of my table service favorites, and they will also offer a family style meal upon reopening. The house pull-apart rolls are included. The Taste of the Caribbean platter features oven-roasted citrus chicken, slow-cooked mojo pork with mango sambal, and grilled flank steak with mojito relish. This platter comes with sides of cilantro rice and beans, vegetable curry, and grilled broccolini. It also comes with coconut-pineapple bread pudding (a plant-based meal option is available).

‘Ohana at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort (Opening July 9; bookings available June 10)

‘Ohana will be offering the all-you-care-to-enjoy breakfast again and then dinner offerings. There will not be Disney characters at breakfast when the restaurant reopens, but a strolling musician will be entertaining for dinner.

Breakfast includes pineapple-coconut breakfast bread, Stitch and Mickey Mouse waffles, and breakfast skillets with ham, sausage, and breakfast potatoes.

‘Ohana dinner features all-you-care-to-enjoy platters of grilled beef steak, roasted chicken, sausage, and island shrimp casserole served with fried rice and roasted broccolini. Also ‘Ohana pot stickers, crispy soy chicken wings, and the signature ‘Ohana bread pudding with caramel sauce and vanilla ice cream.

Tusker House Restaurant, Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park (Opening June 20; bookings now available)

Donald Duck and friends will be back, and bookings have already begun. For breakfast, you can find Mickey and Simba waffles, Durban chicken and egg curry with jasmine rice, and much more.
