Some Guests visit Disney World for the rides, attractions, and world-class entertainment. Others visit for the nostalgia, and some visit for the sights, sounds, and scents.
And there are those who visit just for the food.
From cart snacks and colorful beverages to lunch at their favorite Magic Kingdom restaurant and dinner at EPCOT’s newest dining venue, some Guests really love all the dining options at the Most Magical Place on Earth.

But when the coronavirus pandemic forced Disney World to close its gates in March 2020, all of the Walt Disney World Resort’s attractions, entertainment, and dining options closed, and some have remained closed or unavailable even until now. One of those dining options includes buffets at Disney World’s table-service restaurants. Recently, Disney World made the announcement that more dining options would be returning to Guests in the future, which was welcome news as many Guests wondered if some of the missing experiences at the Central Florida Disney parks were gone for good.
This week we’ve learned that one Disney World restaurant is bringing back its Guest-favorite buffet this fall.
Per the official Walt Disney World website, buffet-style dining at Tusker House in Africa at Disney’s Animal Kingdom will return, beginning November 1, 2022:
Now through October 31, this restaurant offers family-style dining. The buffet experience will return on November 1. Check back soon to view the buffet menu.
