FIRST LOOK: Tokyo Dining Has Reopened in EPCOT

Restaurants throughout Disney World have been reopening over the past several months.

Tokyo Dining

Just recently, Boma reopened in Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge, Dockside Diner reopened in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and more places are set to reopen soon. Over at EPCOT, many restaurants have reopened and now another one has joined the list — Tokyo Dining.

Tokyo Dining in EPCOT’s Japan pavilion temporarily reopened in November of 2020, the menu received a bunch of changes, and then it reopened again for a few days in December. But now it seems the restaurant has fully reopened.

The restaurant reopened today starting at 2PM and will be available until 8PM. According to the Disney calendar, starting on September 2nd the restaurant will close a little bit later, at 9PM. Just keep in mind that for now it looks like Tokyo Dining will be closed on Tuesdays and Wednesday each week.

Also, for now the restaurant will only be accepting walk-ins, but be sure to check if that has changed by the time you visit.
