UPDATED October 28, 2026
Be Our Guest Restaurant presents an unforgettable dining experience in Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom, where guests can step inside the setting of the beloved animated film Beauty and the Beast!
Castle entrance
Be Our Guest Restaurant has enchanted guests ever since it opened, delivering French-inspired cuisine right inside the Beast’s castle. Its completely immersive setting is unlike any other, which is the reason it can be a challenge for guests to snag an Advance Dining Reservation for this in-demand dining experience!
Be Our Guest Restaurant serves Lunch and Dinner, with both meals featuring a Signature prix-fixe menu.
In addition to its uniquely memorable setting, Be Our Guest Restaurant also made history as being the first restaurant in the Magic Kingdom to serve alcohol to guests.
AND Be Our Guest Restaurant offers guests the rare opportunity to see THE BEAST himself!

The Atmosphere at Be Our Guest Restaurant — The Beast’s Castle
Welcome to The Beast’s truly magical dwelling. The entrance to Be Our Guest Restaurant is nestled underneath a mysterious castle in the Fantasyland “countryside”!
Be Our Guest Restaurant
The scene is set even as you approach the entrance, with gargoyles keeping watch along the stone path.
Be Our Guest Restaurant
Passing through an old gateway to a stone bridge, through wrought-iron gates, and ultimately to the Castle doors, guests are reminded of the story of the Beast’s transformation.
Be Our Guest Restaurant
And now it’s time to step inside…
The Grand Ballroom
Upon arrival, guests enter directly into The Grand Ballroom.
Be Our Guest Restaurant’s Grand Ballroom
The Ballroom conveys the film’s elegance with a coffered, 20-foot ceiling with artwork featuring fluffy clouds and cherubs, sparkling chandeliers, and a terrazzo floor.
The Grand Ballroom
At the far end of the room, 18-foot-tall arched windows look out to the French countryside, where special effects create gently falling snow through the starry sky.
The West Wing
Home to the Enchanted Rose, entry into the dark and mysterious West Wing is forbidden by The Beast. (Unless, you know, your host or hostess seats you there. Then it’s totally cool.)
The West Wing
The Rose sits in an unassuming corner, and beside it lies the Enchanted Mirror.
Enchanted Rose at Be Our Guest Restaurant
The enchanted rose slowly drops petals as time runs out for the beast.
From time to time, thunderstorms rattle the room.

The flashes of lightning simultaneously reveal a change in the portrait hanging over the fireplace from the Prince…

…. to THE BEAST!
The Castle Gallery
The third room is the Castle Gallery or the Rose Gallery.
Rose Gallery at Be Our Guest Restaurant
This room just so happens to be Belle’s favorite (as we’ve learned from Cast Members).
Portrait in the Rose Gallery
Here, guests are surrounded by portraits displaying scenes of Belle and The Beast’s life together.

And in the midst of it all is a larger-than-life music box (made by Belle’s father, Maurice, for her wedding) where Belle and The Beast twirl while you dine.
Belle and the Beast
As in all Disney films, music is an important element throughout Be Our Guest Restaurant. Musical themes from the film add to the ambiance. In the Ballroom, a 50-piece orchestra recorded the music from the film. The Rose Gallery features special music box arrangements of the same pieces heard in the Ballroom, in perfect synchrony, so that guests moving from room to room will hear the same tune transformed from one style to another. It’s in the West Wing that a somber, melancholy arrangement will be heard.
Even beyond the dining rooms, beautiful touches enhance every inch of Be Our Guest Restaurant, like these gorgeous entryway mosaics.

Thanks to an abundance of Disney Imagineered details, guests truly feel as if they’ve been transported inside the beloved film.
The Beast at Be Our Guest Restaurant
Please be aware that Be Our Guest Restaurant is NOT a Character Meal. However, a rare character does make an appearance: it’s THE BEAST himself!
The Beast greeting guests at Be Our Guest Restaurant
Guests can see The Beast in productions like Fantasmic! And Beauty and the Beast — Live on Stage (both in Disney’s Hollywood Studios). But, save for the very rare occasions when he may stop by EPCOT’s France pavilion for a bit of fresh air, this guy is fairly impossible to catch up close. So seeing him at Be Our Guest is certainly a boon. But we must emphasize the word “appearance.” The Beast strolls through the various rooms so guests can see him at one point during their meal. There are no individual table meet-and-greets or posing for photos — at least, not at this time. Prior to the temporary closure of Disney World in 2020, guests DID get to meet the Beast and pose for a photo with him after their meal. However, that photo opportunity has not regularly returned as part of the experience.

Nosh or Not
This Disney World restaurant is a must-visit if you…
- Want the very best in Disney Imagineering. When we tell you that it feels like you’re stepping into the story of Beauty and the Beast, we mean it. Every part of this restaurant is themed to perfection. The Grand Ballroom is epic. The West Wing is moody and dramatic. The Rose Gallery is charming and sweet. If you’re looking for true “Disney” theming, this is the place to go.
- Are dining with children. You can see the ACTUAL enchanted rose. The Beast strolls through his castle to greet you. They serve The Grey Stuff – and it’s delicious! Disney does a lot to make this place feel special, and for kids, it will feel like a fancy, schmancy meal fit for royalty. This is where to eat if you’re trying to impress your family.
- Crave French Onion Soup. Be honest. Do you ever make French Onion Soup at home? No. Does the French Onion Soup here taste really good? Yes! While the rest of the menu may not be as highly reviewed, the French Onion Soup is a consistent hit at this restaurant. Oh, and it’s one of the few spots in Disney World that serves French Onion Soup!
You should skip this Disney World spot if you…
- Expect to take photos with Belle and the Beast. We hate to break it to you, but you won’t find Belle at Be Our Guest. To make matters worse, the Beast doesn’t stop for a proper meet-and-greet, either. You’ll see him pop into the dining room during your meal, but don’t expect to take any personal photos with the characters from Beauty and the Beast.
- Are not interested in a Prix Fixe meal. We need to address the elephant in the (ball)room: The price. This is one of those places that “locks” you into a set cost and set meal. You can’t skip the appetizer, and you’d better save room for dessert – it’s all included. This also means you need to budget enough time for the full experience. Those with a jam-packed schedule in Magic Kingdom may be better off at a quick-service restaurant.
- Want a 5-star meal. Is this the worst food in Disney World? Definitely not! Is it the best food in Disney World? Not exactly. It’s fair to say that most people come to Be Our Guest for the experience of dining in the Beast’s castle, not the fine dining. The entrees have a reputation for being inconsistent in quality, and it’s hard to justify the price when your meal is just “meh.”
Important Information
- Lunch and dinner require two table-service credits on the Disney Dining Plan.
- Mobile Dine Check-In and Walk-Up Availability.
- Annual Passholder and Disney Vacation Club discounts.
Famous Dishes: French Onion Soup, Escargot de Bourgogne, Filet Mignon, Beef Bourguignon en Croûte, Steak Frites, Truffle Pomme Frites
