This was one of the restaurants my husband and I have been wanting to try out for a few years. I'm extremely glad we did. The interior was incredibly beautiful and had a lot of natural light coming in. While we were waiting for it to officially open for the day, we were treated to an amazing greeting and opening ceremony from the cast members there. It was incredible to watch and experience! We were instantly taken to our table, which we shared with a few different parties as it is a hibachi style restaurant. We placed our orders, and within what felt like seconds, we were already given our water, and soon after our appetizer, the teppanyaki. Not only was it plated ever so nicely, but it was detectable! The octopus had a great savory flavor to it and a soft yet crisp crunch to it. I loved it and would definitely go out of my way to get it again. I ordered the chicken hibachi, which comes with grilled vegetables (onions, zucchini, carrots) as well as a miso soup, salad with ginger dressing and later on udon noodles. I was a bit bummed as they didn't offer fried rice, but I did enjoy the taste and flavor of the udon noodles, so I was happy about that! My meal was so tasty and filling. I felt content the rest of the day. Our chef and waitress, as well as the other staff, really enhance this experience. I cannot wait to come back again in the future! read more

A pretty darn good place at Epcot for sure! Everything right from the get-go was amazing. The cast members that work here have a really nice little opening ceremony when the restaurant officially opens and is very welcoming. The style is very authentically Japanese! We were sat with a couple other parties because it is a hibachi style and we still had a nice amount of space in between all of the parties. Our waitress was superb with drinks and refills coming before we could finish the first ones. I opted for the chicken breast hibachi and it came with udon noodles and a generous portion at that, as well as vegetables and a side of rice. My only issue is you can not get fried rice, it is only white rice here. The n oodles were cooked to perfection as was the vegetables and chicken. The food was seasoned perfectly and the dipping sauces had a robust flavor to them. We had an order of the teppanyaki for an appetizer and the presentation as well as the flavor was astounding. I have been thinking about it almost daily since we have had it! The octopus was great and melted in your mouth and the crunch of the coating it was wrapped in was amazing as well. The prices are average theme park prices and pretty on par with other hibachi places around Orlando and the country. I will for sure be stopping here again when I am in the mood for an awesome cooking show and delicious food! read more

We eat here every time that that we come to Epcot. It's a great show for kids and the food is delicious! We had a young cast member this time earning his ears cooking for us and he did an amazing job. Highly recommend the steak hibachi with the Momo Whiskey Sour! The kids are always entertained by the show! read more

Teppan Edo at Epcot is your Japanese Hibachi experience in the world showcase. Not to be mistaken with Tokyo Dining in the same building. You'll still get the same great service from the Japanese college program students but the dinner show is lots of fun with Mickey Mouse rice and more! read more

When friends invited us last minute to join them for dinner here near closing time, we jumped on the opportunity because it had been around 10 years since we last ate here and also thought it would be a cool experience to leave the park past closing. We had shared the spicy roll and also ordered the shrimp and shrimp and steak meals. The food was pretty good. We scarfed down the mango mousse cake too. Some of the downsides: they could use better ventilation in there, the restaurant overall was pretty dirty, it took three times to ask for some water before we received it, and the only desserts in stock were the cake and ice cream (I think there were two others). While I enjoyed the food, it'll probably be awhile til I would go back. read more

This is the closest to a real Teppan experience you will get. This is my third time dining at Teppan Edo, located at Epcot's Japan pavilion and it is always a fantastic experience. The experience feels authentic and the staff hospitality is five stars. The food is cooked in front of you by a highly skilled Chef who makes the experience entertaining by infusing Disney flare into the food. During my dinner, "Olaf" made an appearance, a hidden Mickey showed up in an oil form and the Chef made another Mickey using the vegetables and noodle's. Really cool! The table is for eight people and you share it with another party. We were a group of four so we shared with another family. My party ordered the chicken and shrimp combo, the filet and chicken and steak and shrimp. I highly recommend upgrading to the filet mignon for $10, it is worth it. The protein comes with udon noodles, white rice and vegetables. The sauces include the yum yum sauce and a ginger dressing. Your meal also includes a salad. For drinks, I haven't tried a lot besides the yuzu lemonade with strawberry popping boba. Super refreshing drink. Yuzu is a citrus fruit so think of something similar to a lemonade. If you are planning a trip to EPCOT and would like to dine at Teppan Edo. You must make a reservation in advanced. We were lucky to find a spot open the weekend of mothers day but we booked over a month in advance. Right now they are upgrading the former Tokyo Dining restaurant ( a new sushi concept is coming) next door so the waiting area for Teppan Edo feels tight. read more

These types of hibachi/teppan yaki restaurants are really not my thing. Too much mediocre food in my experience and the show doesn't do much for me. That said, when someone suggested Teppan Edo for dinner I was intrigued, as maybe my son would like it. Disney is also the safest place to try this kind of place, given his severe dairy allergy (even butter). Walking up the stairs to get in is the way to go, as it's a pretty cool entrance. Reservations were backed up a bit however we got seated 15min late. Service was very good, as you would expect from both Disney and this type of restaurant in general. Our chef was a bit slower than some of the others nearby, however she did a good job cooking and was very nice. Got the Momo Whiskey Sour and it was unremarkable; would recommend going the sake route instead. I got the steak and shrimp, which came with a garden salad, udon noodles, veggies and white rice. The salad was a good rendition of the typical ginger dressing. The udon were more impressive; I usually hate udon however these were freshly made and soaked up the sauce they made nicely. Veggies themselves were very good. Shrimp were good however they did rely on butter (cooked after my son's); steak was better than expected and done to a perfect rare even if it wasn't the best cut of meat. Not sure why they gave so many sides of different extra sauces, however it was a nice--albeit unnecessary--touch. Portion size was the most restrained of any place like this I've been to; that said, there was ample food to be full. Most importantly, my son loved the show as well as the food. Obviously I liked the place. Kind of surprised how much too. After spending too much time at Via Napoli over the years, this might be the new move. read more

The food is average to us. The quality of the beef is on the lower side. It tastes grainy and over sauced. The chicken doesn't have much flavor inside but lots of sauce on the surface. Same as the vegetables stir fry noodle. Overall the food is on the salty side. read more

Teppan Edo in Japan World Showcase at Epcot is a great place to dine. We could not get a advanced dinner reservation after trying multiple times. At the Epcot, we tried for dinner reservations but no luck. Our friend randomly tried lunch and a reservation was available so we took it. It's a Teppanyaki style meal where a cooking a show is provided by the Teppan chef (like Benihana). Our Teppan chef was the first female (Asumi) that we experienced, and we have eaten at numerous Teppan restaurants such as Benihana, Tanaka of Tokyo, Hana Japan Steakhouse, etc. She was excellent! Asumi was skilled, very interactive, friendly and a great cook. All of our orders were prepared and cooked to perfection. The cooking show Asumi put on was very entertaining and meshed seamlessly with her meal preparation. The seafood and meats were all cooked as ordered. Everything tasted excellent! If you're going to Epcot World Showcase, make reservations at Teppan Edo for lunch or dinner. You won't be disappointed. read more

Great service (friendly) and Great noodles! Our granddaughters liked the Teppanyaki show. But all else was mediocre; the chicken was low quality, dry / old, bland. The scallops were bad; small, and tasted old (and expensive). The Sake Mojito was also tasteless. Not a place to return; nor to even go if someone had alerted me. A waste of time, calories and insulting to our taste buds. Ambiance is Disney crowd management style. read more

Teppan Edo - Teppanyaki table. Nice Chef - Japanese Near Me - Lake Buena Vista, Florida

This dining experience inside the Japan pavilion at EPCOT is hibachi style. Admittedly it's not my favorite hibachi in the Orlando area, but if you're going to be inside the theme park and you want hibachi it's definitely not bad. Our chef was fun and was able to accommodate a few allergies at our table very easily. Meals come with noodles/veggie mix, white rice, a salad and your meat choice. It's a cool experience for the little ones to watch the meal be cooked at the table, so that's a plus too. One of the reasons that this restaurant doesn't get a 4-5 is because I just felt like my food was ok, nothing special especially for the price. read more

Teppan Edo - The grill master made Olaf out of vegetables. - Japanese Near Me - Lake Buena Vista, Florida

Highly recommend getting a reservation for here! They were super understanding when we were late because our reservation time overlapped with our virtual queue for Cosmic Rewind. Of course we rushed over after we got off the (awesome) ride, and the hostess was able to get us to our table without much of a wait. Chef Mizuki was great with performing tricks while also cooking our food. My order of veggie stir fried udon (came with salad and rice) was served first. We also got the chicken stir fried udon with a filet mignon add on. The flavor of these dishes were really smoky and umami! For the price, the portions were pretty great too. The yuzu popping boba lemonade was also refreshing. Another guest got the wagyu add on and I probably wouldn't get that at Disney, maybe it's just me but it just felt a bit overpriced for such a small portion (like 5-6 pieces). At the end of the meal, the staff didn't rush us at all even though we were the last to leave our table. The receipt even comes with a small paper crane which I thought was a nice touch. read more

Checking in was a chaotic and painstakingly long process, the staff was nice but didn't speak English well and we often had to spell out words for them, the front area was very crowded and loud. There was no fried rice available, which is a hibachi staple. The servers were super nice. The chicken hibachi was delicious and very well cooked, the chef was able to accommodate the vegetarians and vegan in our group by cooking the veggies first and the meat afterward, good overall. read more

First off, I have been wanting to go here for a long time. I am glad I finally did!! The ambiance is typical Japanese Teppanyaki restaurant, a little tight to move around, but pleasant enough. Service? Holy cow the service is the best I have ever had! SUPER friendly, SUPER attentive, just all around, SUPER! The wait staff is super professional, patient, and all around AMAZING!! The food is...wow. The one thing I didn't really eat that much was the white rice, but it was good regardless. I did the combo of steak and shrimp. I was NOT disappointed. The dessert of the mango mousse cake was sweet, but not too much. I hate to use the word perfect, but that is exactly what this place is! We will definitely be making this a must do location for us from now on!! read more

Kids are entertained but the bathrooms are so dirty and disgusting. It just feels dirty. I hesitated to eat anything. They rush you, charge $26/steak for kids and then don't offer to box it up but automatically throw out whatever the kids don't eat. The goal is to turnover tables, and they offer no discount for passholder or DVC. I'd avoid. It is gross. read more

Overall- I would say that this place is Disney's take of American hibachi. Food was not bad overall, it's got flavors, especially udon with veggies was really good--if it had less salt Do I think its cultural exploration of hibachi? Maybe.. regardless, this is what America views Japanese chains and it's not bad. The dining experience comes with a show with a great service so if you like American hibachi you'll like this place. I would come back if I have a kid in the near future as an entertainment purpose read more

We decided to do a last minutes Orlando trip and did a half day trip to Epcot and we were able to catch a meal at Teppan Edo. This is the hibachi restaurant and is the main restaurant at the Japan pavilion at Epcot. To start we ordered some sushi as appetizer and it was ok it tasted like the ones from Publix. Than for main entree we ordered chicken and shrimp which was cooked in front of us. Like I mentioned the food was ok it could of needed a little bit more seasoning. We are glad that we tried it but will stick with Benihana back at home. read more

Love this spot. We eat here with our 4 kids and they love it. We eat here without our kids as well. The quality of food is outstanding and the service is just great. We order the miso soup, julienne steak, filet mignon, salmon, volcano roll and spicy roll. All of it is delicious. The mo mo whisky sour is one of our favorite drinks at Disney. It can be very busy and loud, but it is worth it and such a fun spot for friends and/or families to enjoy a fun meal together. read more

Great Hibachi steakhouse experience - not to be missed - the chef provides table side preparation of the food with gusto and charm. Everything tasted fresh and great. Patrons are seated in groups of 8 in a semi circle around the hot plate where the chef performs - if you do not want to share a table you should look elsewhere to eat - and if you only want a snack there are other options - leaving while chef is performing is not on this menu... read more

Like many of Epcot's world showcase restaurants, the faire at Teppan Edo is presented with a uniquely Disney flair and plenty of hospitality. The hibachi presentation had some fun characters touches thrown in, like hidden Mickeys and an Olaf made from onion. The food itself was okay, my shrimp entree narrowly dodged being overcooked, but my companion's steak and chicken were unenjoyable. The udon and veggie mix were the stars of the grill themselves, and the california roll appetizer was definitely worth trying. read more

Our family of four got a late evening reservation at Teppan Edo to celebrate Valentines Day. As you round the corner from the main door, there is a long hallway off of which were perhaps 8 to 10 smaller rooms of four hibachi tables each. Our table was literally in the last room of the place and on our way there we overheard several groups having a great time. The online menu has the usual Japanese Steakhouse options. What I found missing was a fried rice option (white rice only) , a starter soup not being included and no fire. We started with a couple Sapporo beers and a white wine. For appetizers, we had a spicy roll that was delicious. Our table mates got a volcano roll which was cooked in front of them with a spicy sauce. I'd like to try that next time. I ordered a steak and shrimp combo but didn't upgrade for $10 more to a filet. My daughter got the filet upgrade with her shrimp and not only was it tastier but it looked to be a slightly bigger portion. Despite not upgrading, I really enjoyed my meal. It was expertly prepared by our chef who had been working there for over 20 years. He had all the tricks and was very funny. We would return here anytime. Everything was well done and the family had an awesome time. read more

We always want to try different restaurants while touring the World at Epcot but we typically land here and it has always been a solid meal. I wish they would do fried rice but the udon noodles are different and yummy. They do rush you through the meal and seat you at a table of 8 so you will likely be dining with strangers. Our chef was lively and funny and my steak was prepared great and was a much nicer cut than those who got the steak and chicken combo. read more

So I'm losing my mind, but there's a good chance the inside was completely changed. Last time I was here, which was Im thinking, 12 years ago, and the time before that when I was 17, I could have swore this was half sushi bar, half Teppanyaki grill tables, but when I went in this time, it was only Teppanyaki tables. We had the pleasure of having a girl as our cook. I have never had a girl as a Teppanyaki cook before. Her name was Momoko. She was so kind and funny and did a wonderful job cooking our food and making it fun for us. The whole building I believe container 4/5 rooms and each room had 4 tables in it. The food was amazing. Cooked absolutely perfectly. We tried the sashimi plate and unfortunately it only came with 2 pieces of each fish, but they were sooooooo tasty and fresh and perfect. It was a wonderful experience. Glad I chose to revisit after all this time read more

A really fun Hibachi place in Epcot! Came here with a party of 4. They were very organized and quick to seat us down. After getting our order in, drinks were first served out, then the chef came out.

It can be a challenge to secure a reservation for Teppan Edo in the Japan pavilion at Epcot. You have to keep checking the Disney website or app every day. Reservations open up 60 days prior and they tend to sell out immediately. (Although I don't feel they release a lot of seats for the reservations.) A few days before our visit to Epcot, I was finally able to get a reservation as people begin to cancel and rearrange their vacation schedules. I hadn't eaten at Teppan Edo in about 25 years. We were seated with two other groups of people at the 8-top table surrounding the grill. We were seated in the middle; one party was social with us, the others kept to themselves. Our server came by and was super friendly and informative. She explained everything, took our orders, immediately brought our drinks, and continued to bring refills (iced tea) as needed. She was super efficient and wonderful throughout the entire meal. After the drinks, she brought out one of my favorite things -- salad with ginger dressing. I've yet to find a comparable ginger dressing in the grocery stores that can match the dressing served in the Japan pavilion at Epcot. Our chef was wonderful, too. As entertaining as you would hope he would be. He made jokes and put on a good show as he cooked our meals right in front of us. The food seems so simple (rice, noodles, veggies, and meats), but the flavors coming right off the grill are amazing. Although the pricing is a bit high (almost twice as much for the same meal off Disney property), you do get a LOT of food. And it's not one of the growing number of places where you have to order off a prix fixe menu for $69 or $89. Naturally, to get my money's worth and because I was super hungry, I ate it ALL. I didn't regret it one bit. read more

This was quite a nice surprise - the food was great (we all either enjoyed the steak/shrimp combo or shrimp or chicken/shrimp and it was tasty), and our chef Tomo was very entertaining. Great for kids too. It's a bit pricey but a nice treat considering the live entertainment and cooking! read more

Incredibly friendly and accommodating service every time we visit. For the minute you walk in to the minute, you're sit seated at your table, they pay attention to the details and the customer. The restaurant is very typical above average Teppanyaki Grill and I love the chicken and steak combination. As an appetizer, consider ordering some sushi, which is above average and reasonably priced. If you've ever been to Benihana, you're looking at a very similar experience at this location I'll be at not quite as flashy or shower. There's less emphasis on performance, and more emphasis on efficiency, and providing the customer with good quality food. Your standard entrée also includes a soup and salad, and I can honestly say that not only or my wife, and I very satisfied with the entire meal we came away quite full. I would rank this option among the top five dining experiences in any of the Disney parks. Highly recommend. read more

The whole experience was terrible. Staff is nice but are all in a rush. You have to eat at the times they tell you to and food is mediocre. For the price point is not worth trying this place. read more

In Japanese, the word teppanyaki stems from teppan (鉄板), which is the metal plate or flat iron griddle on which the food is cooked, and yaki (焼き) translates as grilled or pan-fried. Teppan Edo has wonderful food and the entertainment and culinary skills of the chefs is always way above the norm. They also have sushi and sashimi for appetizers, or you could make a meal out of them. If you want an excellent volcano roll, this is the place. Everything here is seasoned and prepared to perfection, and cleanliness is never a worry at a Disney restaurant. Lastly, they have some of the best soda water in all of Disney World. I know that must sound kind of strange, but when you've been walking in the blast furnace heat of Florida, this spot is a refuge from the heat, and an oasis for your hunger and thirst. read more

Teppan Edo - Comes with chopsticks - Japanese Near Me - Lake Buena Vista, Florida

Decided to give this place another shot from my first visit a few years ago. Ken was our cook and while he was friendly, he wasn't that skilled at hibachi. Just like the last time, he failed almost every trick attempted. The food was pretty bland and lacking compared to other local hibachi restaurants at half the price. You only get a small bowl of steamed rice, no hibachi style fried rice. You don't get noodles and vegetables as the menu implies and other hibachi restaurants do, you get noodles mixed with spinach, zucchini, carrots and onion with a bit of soy sauce. Steak was way overcooked and flavorless other than the soy sauce. Shrimp was very tiny and cut into smaller pieces to seem like you actually got an appropriate count but was actually about 3-4 cut in multiple pieces. Restaurant is very loud and can barely hear the servers. I was thinking at first maybe I was too harsh judging on a single visit but this one was just as bad if not worse! Save your money and go to Shogun, Kobe, or any other Hibachi style restaurant and get a much nicer meal and show. read more
