HIDDEN MAGIC!

Staffers at the different restaurants are almost exclusively native to that particular nation, here on an academic program. Strike up a conversation with them. They are energetic ambassadors of their countries, and you can walk away with a really positive experience.

Rose & Crown Dining Room

Cuisine Type: English

Serving Style: À la carte

Breakfast: Not open

Lunch: $

Dinner: $ $

: Yes

Location: United Kingdom Pavilion

Rating: ★ ★ ★ ☆

Why is this such a popular dining establishment? After all, everyone makes fun of the British for their food. Well, to start, the outdoor courtyard seating is an idyllic location for watching the IllumiNations fireworks show after dinner, if you can get one of the tables. The food is quite good, too, if you stick to the classics. Bangers and mash, fish and chips, or one of the pies is a sure way to a filling and tasty meal. If you just want a quick meal, you can grab the fish and chips from their counter-service window to the side, but I like dining here for the atmosphere.

San Angel Inn

Cuisine Type: Mexican

Serving Style: À la carte

Breakfast: Not open

Lunch: $

Dinner: $ $

: Yes

Location: Mexico Pavilion

Rating: ★ ★ ★ ☆ ☆

This is not Tex-Mex food. The people running this restaurant are from one of the finest restaurant families in Mexico. Selections are very authentic and rich with flavor. However, this is one of the few restaurants where I do not recommend going for lunch instead of dinner to eat basically the same meal for less. The dinner menu here has a much better selection than at lunch, including perhaps the finest mole sauce (rich, chocolate based) I have ever put in my mouth. The setting is also ideal for romantic dinners. While it is located inside the pyramid, the setting is a romantic Mexican plaza at twilight with a volcano and pyramid off in the distance.

This restaurant has declined in recent years, and the addition of La Hacienda de San Angel on the waterfront area of this pavilion might further its demise. But if you are visiting at a crowded time this could be a good, easy-to-get-into option that is better than anticipated.

Teppan Edo

Cuisine Type: Japanese

Serving Style: À la carte, teppanyaki

Breakfast: Not open

Lunch: $ $

Dinner: $ $

: Yes

Location: Japan Pavilion

Rating: ★ ★ ★ ☆ ☆

Many know this style of dining from the popular Benihana chain. Seated at a hot grill, often with strangers at the other end of the table, you get to watch a chef swing sharp knives and spice shakers as he grills up your meal. It’s entertaining and the food is good, if not particularly exotic. This is a favorite for families with older kids.

Tokyo Dining

Cuisine Type: Japanese

Serving Style: À la carte

Breakfast: Not open

Lunch: $ $

Dinner: $ $

: Yes

Location: Japan Pavilion

Rating: ★ ★ ★ ☆ ☆

This restaurant has really spruced up and has a great look and feel to it, with a blend between traditional Japanese architecture and a cool, modern, and chic ambiance. The menu welcomes you to the land of Japanese fried foods, as well as a few other choices, including bento boxes and grilled entrées.
