Plus, every time someone dines on the Magical Dining menu a dollar gets donated to charity! This year there are two charities for Magical Dining Month: Freedom Ride, an organization dedicated to therapeutic horseback riding for disabled individuals (fun fact, I used to volunteer at one of those for several years), and BASE Camp, which provides support for families and children facing cancer. There’s even a few Disney restaurants on the list, though none are in the parks. I can personally vouch I’ve never run up a bill less than $140 at Big Fin Seafood Kitchen, my favorite place in all of Orlando and my number one choice for Magical Dining. Many places offering Magical Dining are on Orlando’s famous Restaurant Row. While that might still be a bit much for some budgets, it’s worth it.
#VISIT ORLANDO MAGICAL DINING 2017 PLUS#
Orlando’s top restaurants offer three course, pre fixe dinners for $35 each, plus tax and tip. This year it runs from August 25th to October 1st. Originally Magical Dining Month was limited to just September, but each year it grows a little bit more. This year I am bound and determined, and really everyone should go at least once because it is a phenomenal deal. While I’ve heard of it for years, I’ve never actually been able to take advantage of it due to my birthday being at the end of August and hours being harder to come by (less crowds in the parks means less staffing). One of Orlando’s less famous fall events is Magical Dining Month. The parks are less crowded, it’s not quite as hot (it’s still hot, but it’s not July hot), and there’s all the fun fall activities like Epcot’s Food and Wine Festival, Mickey’s No So Scary Halloween Party, and Halloween Horror Nights. Orange Ave., Winter Park 40 reelfishcoastal.I frequently get asked when the best time to visit Orlando is, and my answer is always September. Winter Park: Indulge in seafood on at Reel Fish Coastal Kitchen with calamari, a seafood bake, and peach and white chocolate bread pudding. End your meal with the azuki brownie, which gets some unique flavoring with the addition of green tea milk, red bean mousse and raspberry coulis. Restaurant Row: Dragonfly Robata and Sushi lets you pick any two sushi rolls off the menu - or allow the chef to create a roll and four-piece nigiri for you.

The Spanish-inspired menu includes mussels with chorizo, chicken and vegetable paella, and flan. International Drive: Tapa Toro will make for a fun night out with its vibrant atmosphere and live entertainment. Want to stick around a little closer to home? That’s okay - here are a few options:ĭowntown Orlando: I can eat Nova Scratch Kitchen’s deconstructed Ahi tuna nachos any day - and you can, too, from the Magical Dining menu, which also includes coffee-rubbed flat iron steak, fried green tomatoes and chocolate mousse cake. Jiko’s modern interpretation of malva pudding, a South African pudding. Park admission is not required just call the restaurant at 40 to make a reservation. After dining on lobster bisque, seafood pasta or white chocolate raspberry cake, diners can stay in the park. Head into a theme park and eat at SeaWorld Orlando’s Sharks Underwater Grill (7007 SeaWorld Drive, Orlando). The restaurant (6601 Adventure Way, Orlando) celebrates Caribbean cuisine. The Safari Sunset’s layers of carrot cake, cornbread and lemon custard offer a light, refreshing way to end the meal.įor vegetarians, Jiko’s West African Koki Corn is a meat-free, tamale-like dish packed with mushrooms.Ĭheck out Universal Orlando’s new resort, Sapphire Falls, and dine on empanadas, churrasco steak, rum cake and more at Amatista’s Cookhouse. The fork-tender Botswana-style Seswaa beef short rib gets a little spice from a sambal (chili pepper) sauce that cuts through its richness, especially with the accompanying carrots and mushrooms. There’s Inguday Tibs in Brik, an Ethiopian dish of mushroom, spinach and cheese packed into flaky, crisp filo dough and paired with a tart apple slaw and earthy curry vinaigrette. Jiko, a signature restaurant at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge, shows off the cuisine inspired by traditional dishes from a number of African countries. If you’ve been avoiding the theme parks this summer, now’s the time to make a return - at least to the restaurants. Design your own feast at Chroma Modern Bar & Kitchen.
