Five Courses. One Extraordinary Evening.
Join us for a progressive dinner unlike any other—with sumptuous offerings at 3 Disney Resort hotels.
Your Dine Around adventure begins at Disney's Contemporary Resort, where you’ll check in at The Wave… of American Flavors restaurant. Relax and mingle with your fellow diners, enjoying a welcoming appetizer and specialty cocktail before setting off on your epicurean odyssey. Bon voyage and bon appétit!
First stop: Disney's Polynesian Village Resort—where you’ll feel as if you’ve arrived in a far-flung tropical paradise. Celebrate the spirit of the South Pacific and luxuriate in the charm of this exotic retreat, with an enticing variety of island-inspired libations and appetizers.
Then it’s time for a change of scene and cuisine—as the monorail transports you a world away: to the opulent Victorian-style Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa. Step inside and step back into a bygone era of elegance and gracious hospitality. You’ll be escorted to the award-winning Cítricos restaurant where we invite you to settle in amid the refined ambience as you’re treated to a special Chef’s main course selection. Afterward, gather in the splendidly appointed lobby to sip champagne and savor a selection of artisanal cheeses.
Board the monorail once more to return to Disney's Contemporary Resort for the culmination of your evening. Here, you and your Dine Around companions will retire to a private patio to enjoy an indulgent assortment of desserts, cordials and coffee. From this exclusive location, watch in wonder as the Wishes nighttime spectacular fireworks light up the night over Cinderella Castle—a musical, magical grand finale to your one-of-a-kind dining adventure.
Please use the Check Availability module on this page to book this special dining experience. Advance reservations are highly recommended.
SEATING ARRANGEMENTS by @olliffm1
They are reserved sections with tables. It's open seating. At Citricos, we were sat by the host stand. There was a table of 10, a table of 5, and then I'm not sure of the rest because we were part of that table, lol!!!! But even that was seated by the order you happened to be in. We sat with different people the entire time.
ALLERGY ARRANGEMENTS by @olliffm1
The first course they made her a bisque with coconut milk instead of cream. She loved it!!!! She was a little skeptical when he said coconut milk, but she said she didn't taste any coconut. Trader Sams she was served a cold app without the goat cheese and cream. The hot app was already dairy free. The entree she had potatoes instead of the purée and she had no sauce on her scallops. She got the special board at the Tea Room. And they did a dairy free dessert plate for her with chocolate cake and a pumpkin panacotta. They always knew they had someone with an allergy, but they weren't always sure who. But, they do use regular servers who we told at every stop and they handle it. There was also someone that had a truffle allergy (or she didn't like it) and that was also accommodated.
They called everyone a couple of days before and asked that you called them with any allergies or if you were unable to climb a flight of stairs. That's how we learned that the entire event is actually run from the Contemporary Special Events Department.
