Pizzafari still closed?

[lsg1]

I thought I read somewhere that Pizzafari was re-opening Oct 20th. I have not read anything about it re-opening. Does anyone have any further info on this?

Thanks

If anyone has heard any info on this, I'd be interested to hear it as well. Google doesn't offer much past Aug. news, Tripadvisor has a mention of a permanent closure, and as usual, Disney's keeping any updates a secret.

allearsnet.com has the reopening date at 11/14

Is this because of the new TS restaurant that will share a kitchen? Am getting all my restaurants mixed up with all the new things coming!!!

We were just there a few days ago. Big wall around it. Definitely not open yet.

1) Pizzafari will open as a combination QS and TS.
2) And, the TS is a SIGNATURE eatery for dinner.
3) The QS may or may not open in November, and the TS is scheduled for early Spring (according to our friend, the new manager of it).

Any news on this? I'm curious as to whether the quick serve will have the same menu.

Will the signature dining be Italian cuisine to keep in line with Pizzafari, or will it have a different cuisine?

Same questions here.

Always thought Pizza was an interesting option at a park with Asian and African themes. Wonder what the menus at both will be

We're heading to Animal Kingdom on Tuesday for some fun. We will pop around there to see what we can find out on this.

Great, thanks so much. I've always enjoyed Pizzafari.

We just got back home from Animal Kingdom today and Pizzafari was still closed. However, the walls around it were down but still had the sign up stating they were undergoing refurbishments. There were no CM's standing around to ask when it would reopen.

No official word on either of these.
