Disney Parks Unveil New Dining Reservation Tools to Make Mealtime More Magical

Planning your meals at Disneyland or Walt Disney World just got a whole lot easier. Disney has officially launched a suite of new features across its websites and mobile apps that streamline the dining reservation process—making it simpler than ever to snag a table at your favorite park restaurants. Whether you're craving Mickey-shaped waffles or a candlelit dinner at Cinderella’s Royal Table, these updates are designed to take the stress out of securing a seat.

What’s New on the Menu

Among the most exciting additions is a calendar view that shows availability at individual restaurants across multiple days. Instead of checking one date at a time, guests can now see which days have open reservations at a glance—marked with a green dot for easy scanning. This is a game-changer for those trying to book high-demand spots like Blue Bayou or Be Our Guest, where timing is everything.

Another major upgrade is the multi-restaurant search feature, which allows guests to browse availability across all dining locations within a selected date range. Previously, users had to check each restaurant individually. Now, if you’re flexible on where you eat but not when, you can quickly see all your options in one place.

Filters That Fit Your Fantasy

Disney has also added new filters to help guests narrow down their choices by location, meal type (breakfast, brunch, lunch, or dinner), cuisine, and even whether the experience includes character dining. For Walt Disney World guests, there’s an additional filter for restaurants that accept Disney Dining Plans. A time range slider lets you search for availability within a specific window—perfect for planning around parades, rides, or nap time.
