Space 220 Ordering From Kids' Menu Question

[Little E]

Hi Disfriends!

We are headed to WDW in June for a three generation trip to watch my nephew perform with his high school band. My nephew is 18 and a person with autism. He has an extremely limited list of foods that he will eat. I'm thrilled that I was able to snag a Space 220 reservation for our whole group this morning, but now I'm worrying about the menu for my nephew. I think the rest of our party will have a great time ordering from the prix fixe menu, but the adult food will not be to my nephew's liking. Will they allow him to order from the kids' menu? Thankfully, there are a few things that he will eat that are on the kids' menu. Of course my brother and SIL would gladly pay the adult price for his food, but I want to be sure that Disney will allow him to order from the kids' menu.

Has anyone had any experience with an adult ordering from the kids' menu (paying the adult price) at Space 220?

I dont see why not. They are very accommodating. We needed food for my son that was not on the menu at all and they made it and we paid the kids price. My son got enough spaghetti to feed 6 people.

I have 2 granddaughters, now aged 13 and 15. We always order from the children's menu as they are not adventuresome when they eat. We did order from the childs menu last year at Be Our Guest. The CMs have always been very understanding. We, too, would gladly pay the adult price, but it has never been necessary.

Note: Space 220 is not Disney owned, it is a 3rd party restaurant and they all have their own "rules" BUT as long as you are paying the adult price, don't see why it would be an issue to eat off the kid's menu. Let them know he has special needs and limited diet.

They will make an adult sized portion of items on the child menu and customize to an extent like spaghetti with butter rather than sauce. The staff was beyond accommodating with a picky eater to adults with how something is cooked or barely like Blue steak
