besides victand alberts how many restaurants have a dress code. Need to know how many nice dresses, tights and dress shoes to pack. We are staying at the grand floridian.

V & A have a pretty strict dress code.

Citricos, Narcoossees, Cali Grill, Yachtsman Steakhouse, M. Paul are usually dresses for me ( casual dress, no nylons...open toe shoe is fine), or nice dress pants/top.

All other "signature" are resort casual (capris, pants, sundress/skirt), except those in the theme parks, which you can wear park attire (but I usually only dine there for dinner and have been back to the resort to shower/change and look a bit more presentable than what I wear in the parks all day)

All other restaurants are park attire in the parks - resort casual at the resorts.

I typically pack 3 casual dresses for a 10 - 12 day trip and repeat as needed. I also pack 3ish capris/nice tops. I never bring anything super fancy, but I dont eat at V&A. I also dont bring good jewelry. Couple bracelets, my watch, wedding set, inexpensive / costume necklaces/ accessories. Everything else stays at home.

Business casual works at all the other signature restaurants. We got dressed up for Yachtsman Steakhouse to celebrate our anniversary and there were a lot of dinners in t-shirts and shorts.

I would say you would not be out of place dressing for California Grill but resort casual can also be worn. We also choose to dress resort casual for Paddlefish, Enzo’s Hideaway and Restaurant George The Wine Bar.

Add Takumi-Tei to that list. Haven't been there myself yet but fingers crossed for the next couple of trips.

Agree in general, but have seen park attire at M. Paul twice. Most tables were more business casual. But several tables of t-shirts and jean shorts.

Oh, for sure! You will get that everywhere. Ive noticed Cali Grill has become much more casual too but I was just posting my norm....maybe a bit old school since, well, Im old

I honestly dont pay attention to what others are wearing, and I hope they dont pay attention to me!

I agree with the second comment. I don't believe there is a specific dress code for Yachtsman or M. Paul. The times I have eaten at either of those, I have seen plenty of folks wearing shorts

Us, too. Crappy t-shirt, ball cap, denim shorts on the adult male of the group. It was kind of like it was the only place they could get a last minute ADR and walked up while they were in Epcot.

I dont think there is a "code" anywhere except V&A. Others have a "code", but i feel it more of a suggestion.

We dont eat at V&A, but do at most all other signature restaurants as we are always on the DxDDP and use 2 credits for most dinners (either signature or dinner show). My husband never packs a tie and probably would refuse to wear one on vacation! I feel were are neat and presentable and comfortable with our chosen outfits. Thats all that matters to me. If someone else chooses to wear their park TShirt and a pair of bike shorts, thats completely their choice. Im not paying for their dinner

I have never seen anyone turned away at a restaurant for not having appropriate clothing.

This is about how dressed up my family gets at dinner. Very casual.

Based on the pictures presented the family of @DISNEY1975 met the signature restaurants' dress code with flying colours for all but V+A where a blazer/suit jacket is required for men. It's really not a hard code to follow.
