Cítricos reservations and alerts

Southern European cooking at the Grand Floridian

Cítricos takes its cues from the Mediterranean, with Italian and Spanish cooking at the center and Florida citrus running through the menu, as the name suggests. The braised veal shank has been the dish regulars order for years.

It carries Disney’s signature-dining designation, so expect a slower, fuller evening and a higher price point than a typical resort restaurant.

The resort sits on the monorail loop, so Cítricos is an easy dinner after a Magic Kingdom day without a car or a bus.

One service, and less competition

Cítricos serves dinner rather than three meals a day, so every reservation competes for the same evening.

What works in its favor is the neighbor. Plenty of guests chase the fireworks views at Narcoossee’s, a short walk across the resort, and never look at Cítricos at all.

For a once-in-a-trip occasion, Victoria & Albert’s in the same resort is Disney’s formal tasting-menu restaurant.

When it does fill up

Weekend evenings, holiday weeks and the 7:00 PM – 8:00 PM window go first, especially for larger parties. A signature dinner turns tables slowly, so once an evening is full it tends to stay full until someone cancels.

Tables for two come up most often. Groups of six or more should start watching earlier and accept a wider window.

Catching a Cítricos table

Resort restaurants see most of their cancellations in the last few days before a date, as park plans and dinner plans get rearranged.

Set an alert above and Park Drop will email and text you when a matching table opens. Cítricos sits alongside the other Disney World dining reservations we watch around the clock.
