Animator's Palate — Dinner Menu

Animator's Palate is the one rotational restaurant that's a show as much as a dinner, and it's on every ship in the fleet. The room starts in black and white and fills with colour as the meal goes on.

Signature dishes — a sample of what's served; menus rotate nightly. Full verified menus are being added.

The show

  • The walls animate through dinner — sketches fill in with colour as courses arrive
  • Sit anywhere: the effect runs around the whole room
  • The version differs by ship, and by night on longer sailings

The food

  • Pacific Rim and Californian-influenced cooking
  • Salads including a watermelon, orange and jicama, and an iceberg wedge (both new in 2026)
  • Animation-themed desserts

Good to Know

Included in your fare. Disney refreshed this menu across the Magic, Wonder, Dream and Fantasy in late May 2026 and has not published the full card, so treat dishes below as the style rather than tonight's list.
