Our team knows a thing or two about Disney World, so I asked them the ONE dining reservation they would book first every time so that YOU could know!

Between the theme parks, Disney Springs, and the Disney resorts, there are so many great restaurants to grab a dining reservation for. We asked our AllEars cast team what Disney World restaurant they would book first on their vacation, and they all agreed on one that you might not even know about.
Boma at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge was the winner for our team. If you’ve ever dined there, you’ll know that it’s an exceptional buffet that delivers unique, tasty African-inspired dishes. This is a buffet, which at Disney World could be hit or miss, but this one is a hit. It is open for breakfast and dinner.

The cost for breakfast is $39 per adult and $23 per child. The cost for dinner is $58 per adult and $34 per child. So this is almost $60 per person, but it is all-you-can-eat, so there’s that. The food is high quality, though, and you’re sure to find dishes you love.

While you will need to travel to Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge for this meal, our team says it’s worth it. For the unique food you can try and the variety of options, our team is not disappointed by this restaurant.

For dinner, we love the Nut-Crusted Salmon. The salmon was tender, and the nut crust on top was very flavorful. There were also some warming spices on top that tasted like cinnamon.

We also can’t get enough of the Pasta Salad — and it was one of our favorite things. It’s tangy and just a little spicy with a creamy dressing. All pasta salad should be like this.

Of course, we can’t forget about Zebra Domes. The delicious little morsels of Disney goodness are made with a thin white cake base, Amarula Cream Liqueur mousse, white chocolate ganache, milk chocolate sprinkles, and a dark chocolate ganache drizzle. These are kinda famous and we agree that they are worth the hype.

6 Rules Introverted Disney Adults Must Follow at Restaurants

I agree, we have eaten Boma 1 time and have been wanting to go back. But For some reason we haven’t made back. There is so much good food at wdw and it’s hard to decide. Most of the time we eat inside the parks but if you have a free day or extra time like after your day at Animal Kingdom I strongly recommend Boma, it will not disappoint
Whispering canyon Cafe, same location. Ask for ketchup, I dare you!
Dinner show in Germany is good too!
Hmmm. Let me preface by saying that we love Disney World and have more times than we could ever count. We are Florida residents, past pass holders and I was a travel agent for nearly 20 years. Disney is very expensive. We generally only eat out for table service once during a stay, no matter how long or short it is. It’s just too expensive. Our favorites are Trail’s End at Ft Wilderness, the 50s Diner, the Sci-Fi Diner, and the one in Living Seas can’t recall the name. Lunch is cheaper than dinner, so we try to go just before it changes. There are ways to have an amazing trip and spend less. One of those ways is to tent camp at Ft Wilderness. So much fun! Just be sure to go when the temperatures are agreeable. Stay on property! I would not recommend getting a cheap hotel nearby. Stay on property and enjoy the amenities. When our kids were young, we’d spend 1/3 of our stay just hanging out on property, riding the monorail and visiting other Disney hotels. You don’t need to go to the parks everyday! Carry basic groceries like bread and peanut butter and jelly, chips, celery, snacks. Things that are healthy and easy and can be lunch or dinner if needed. You’re there to have fun not get fat! If you have 4 people in a group eating out for 3 meals a day, you are going to spend like $400-600 a day on food. We just never had that much cash to spend at Disney unless we just went for 2 nights and stayed cheap.
