With tomorrow marking the 50th anniversary of Walt Disney World, more and more exciting new changes keep on coming to the resort. Today, we got to take a look inside Steakhouse 71, the new restaurant opening October 1st at Disney’s Contemporary Resort.
- Steakhouse 71 is located right off Disney’s Contemporary Resort’s newly renovated lobby, in the location formerly occupied by The Wave… of American Flavors.
- The restaurant features a sleek design as well as some Mary Blair-inspired artwork.
- Guests will also find some vintage Walt Disney World art around the restaurant, particularly focused on Magic Kingdom’s Tomorrowland.
- A couple of weeks ago, we got to take a look at the Steakhouse 71 menu, including Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner Desserts and a special lounge menu.
- Reservations for Steakhouse 71 can be made now.
Walt Disney World’s 50th Anniversary:
