Top Restaurants in Celebration
From freshly baked biscuits to classy charcuterie plates to delightful ice cream, Celebration's unique restaurants are sure to please.
Designed by the Walt Disney Company, Celebration is a little Florida town dusted with dashes of pixie dust – and that magic is most obvious in the town’s food scene. From freshly baked biscuits to classy charcuterie plates to authentic French macarons, there’s a bit of culinary wizardry in every bite.
Bright ‘n’ Early Breakfasts
Get your day off to a good start at Maple Street Biscuit Company. This Celebration eatery serves up modern Southern comfort food – and more specifically, loads of buttery biscuits. While biscuits and gravy have found their way onto the menu, Maple Street Biscuit Company is most well-known for its biscuit sandwiches. For a hearty meal, try the Squawking Goat, The Cowboy, or the Five & Dime.
Internationally Inspired Dining
The Columbia Restaurant is a Florida favorite. This historic Spanish-inspired restaurant got its start back in 1905 in Tampa, when it was opened by a Spanish-Cuban immigrant family. Over a century later, those roots are still going strong with dishes like Cuban black bean soup, ropa vieja, and palomilla steak. But if there’s just one thing to try at the Columbia Restaurant, it’s the Cuban sandwich. Layered with Spanish ham, mojo-marinated roast pork, Swiss cheese, pickles, and mustard on fresh Cuban bread, it was once called “the best sandwich in Florida” by Food & Wine. It goes perfectly with the 1905 Salad.

Around the corner you’ll find Ari Sushi, an inviting Asian eatery that serves up a tempting selection of sushi rolls plus Japanese and Korean dishes like bibimbap, teriyaki chicken, tempura shrimp and vegetables, and even convenient lunch bento boxes.
Reggiano’s of Celebration is one of the newest restaurants in town. This upscale Italian eatery serves up delicious dishes like ravioli pomodoro, funghi pizza, parmigiana di melanzane (eggplant parmesan), and Mediterranean branzino. You’ll want to save room for delectable desserts like tiramisu and cannoli. Enjoy the food along with the sophisticated vibes – think pressed tablecloths, flickering candlelight, and elegant chandeliers.
Up the street, Thai Thani is a delightful restaurant serving up the best Thai dishes in town. Enjoy everything from tom kha soup to green papaya salad to pad thai. And with the full bar, you can pair your tasty Thai dish with your drink of choice. It offers indoor seating, outdoor seating, and private meeting rooms.
