8 Things You’ll Love About Sebastian’s Bistro at Walt Disney World
If you follow news and events taking place all around the Walt Disney World Resort, you know that 2019 and 2020 are full of refurbishments, the re-imagining of spaces and the addition of new attractions, a new gondola aerial lift system and even new restaurants. A recently opened restaurant at Disney World is Sebastian’s Bistro at Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort, and there are a lot of things you’re going to love about it! Here are just eight of them.
8. It’s just over a year old!
Sebastian’s Bistro opened on October 8, 2018 at Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort. It stands in the place that was once the Shutters restaurant. The bistro is located in the completely re-imagined Old Port Royale area of the resort hotel.
7. It’s a table-service venue.
At Disney World, there are quick-service restaurants at which you can order at the counter, pick up your food and make your way to a table. Then there are table-service restaurants at which Guests are seated and then place their orders at the table with a server. The best thing about a table-service restaurant at Disney is that Guests can make dining reservations for them. And guess what? Sebastian’s Bistro is a table-service venue, and that means you can make a dining reservation up to 180 days in advance of your trip. Call (407) WDW-DINE or access the My Disney Experience app to make your reservation!
6. Waterfront views
Sebastian’s Bistro sits on the waterfront in the Old Port Royale section of Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort. The views only add to the Caribbean feel you’ll experience at the restaurant.

5. Variety on the menu
Sebastian apparently knows how to wow Guests with different flavorings and offerings on the menu. There are salads, jerk chicken, crab cake-topped burgers (sorry, Sebastian!), steaks, a Bahn Mi sandwich, chimichurri, special desserts called The Floating Island or the Message in a Bottle and so much more! The cuisine has a mix of Latin and Caribbean flavors. You’ll think you’ve embarked on an island vacation!
4. Latin and Caribbean flavors
Since Sebastian’s Bistro is new, some think it’s just a Disney version of a Red Lobster restaurant. On the contrary, the bistro serves up delicious entrees and decadent desserts with a Latin-inspired flair and Caribbean-inspired flavors. What do you get when you mix surf and turf, Disney magic and a unique and rich cultural approach? You get the all-new Sebastian’s Bistro!
3. Cocktails
Looking for some fun cocktails to enjoy when you dine at Sebastian’s Bistro? How about a Gold Medallion? It’s a delightful mix of Cruzan Disney Select Single Barrel Rum, Beefeater Gin, Bols Apricot Brandy, and Orgeat (Almond), with Orange and Lime Juices topped with Soda Water. The Guava-Rita is Herradura Reposado Tequila, Sweet-and-Sour, and Guava with Pomegranate and Lime Juices. Or maybe the Mariner’s Mojito is more to your liking—it’s Bacardi Gran Reserva Maestro de Ron Rum, Lime Juice, Mint, and Pure Cane Sugar topped with Soda Water. And if you’re feeling a bit brazen, try the Caribbean Smuggler—Captain Morgan Original Spiced Rum and Parrot Bay Coconut Rum with Cranberry and Pineapple Juices.
2. The Chandeliers
The chandeliers in the restaurant are gorgeous! We didn’t think we would see chandeliers in a restaurant named for Ariel’s crustacean pal, but they’re there, and they’re beautiful, so when you visit, be sure to look up!
1. The Theming and Décor
Sebastian’s Bistro gives Guests a sense of island fun and magic by using light and bright colors in the décor. The theming is in keeping with that Caribbean feel, and the bright open space in the restaurant makes it even easier to leave your troubles behind!
