Inside The First-Ever Disney Restaurant to Receive a Michelin Star

A Michelin-starred meal is normally not expected at a theme park, but Disney World theme park in Florida has changed the Game. Victoria & Albert’s restaurant was recently awarded a Michelin star, making it the first and only theme park restaurant to receive a star.

The Michelin Guide has announced 9 new additions to the Florida list, including the American fine dining restaurant Victoria & Albert’s, located at Disney World’s Grand Floridian Resort.

In spite of its location just minutes away from the Magic Kingdom, the restaurant operates in an upscale manner, and children under 10 are not permitted to enter.

Victoria & Albert’s, helmed by Chef de Cuisine Matthew Sowers and Pastry Chef Ally Rogers, serves course menus that feature American flavours at their finest. The menu changes according to the season, with some familiar dishes like Langoustine Tartelette and Cinco Jotas Iberico Eclair.

Food is not the only thing that is award-winning at Victoria & Albert’s. Sommelier and maître d’hôtel Israel Pérez was also awarded the 2024 Florida Service Award.

With Michelin-guaranteed cuisine and an impressive collection of more than 500 wines, Victoria & Albert’s is definitely going to officially be on the foodie map from now on.
