Disney's Tiffins Restaurant at Animal Kingdom
You can find Tiffins restaurant at Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park. It is next to where all of the new Pandora attractions will be. I actually cancelled another ADR to get into Tiffins. I was told by many friends that I NEEDED to eat here & I am so happy that I did! First off I want to say that I am not a very adventurous eater & can be very boring & picky. Lately I am trying to change that. If you are a picky eater I highly recommend you try this place! I was a little scared but am glad I went through with it.
I loved the open floor plan of the restaurant! It wasn't loud like I thought it would be although it wasn't very busy when we went. I could only get a 1PM lunch ADR. The couple next to us complained that they missed a Fastpass due to their reservation & were given a new Fastpass to any park for any ride......
I loved the decor here!

We sat near this & it was my favorite. It is a 3D art piece!

Cool Menu!
I loved the cool leather bound menus! Our Waiter was Mo and he was my favorite waiter our whole time at Walt Disney World. I highly recommend you request him.
You have the option of ordering a lighter lunch or you can order from the full menu.
The complimentary bread came with olive oil mixed with Pomegranate. I wasn't a big fan of this but my husband loved it.

We ordered the cheese board & the Grilled Octopus. I was a little scared to try the Octopus but it did NOT disappoint! My husband was in the bathroom when our food arrived & I devoured a lot of the octopus & he was shocked! The mustard sauce it comes with was really tasty!
The cheese board had the most amazing nuts & berries on it. They put caramel on the blue cheese & it actually went very well with it! We finished all of the cheese except for the blue cheese. I loved the two soft cheeses the most but all were excellent.
I wanted to try one of their signature cocktails & chose the Annapurna Zing. It was a lot sweeter than I thought it was going to be. I would order this again in a heartbeat. My husband chose the Robust red wine flight & said he would order it again.
For lunch we both chose the Wagyu Striploin & short rib. The waiter recommended that or the fresh fish they offer. This steak was SUPERB! It was California Grill level quality! We both ordered it medium rare & it was perfection! I recommend eating the short rib first & then finish with the strip loin. The meat was so tender, juicy & AMAZING!!!! I would order this 1,000,000,000 times over. :) Can you tell how much I loved this?! LOL
We were given this by our waiter. The pink drop is hibiscus meringue. The chewy looking thing is a pineapple sugar candy & the last is a truffle. I enjoyed the truffle & pineapple candy as I found the meringue to have a bitter flavor.
I ordered the chocolate ganache & I actually liked it better than the one they serve at California Grill! The caramelized bananas did it for me along with the vanilla cream.
My husband chose the lime cheesecake. I tasted a bite but I'm not a real fan of lemon or lime desserts so I'm not the best person to ask. ;) He loved it.
My husband also ordered Earl Grey tea with some extra lemons & we loved the extra special touches everything had.
Tiffins gives out different collection cards that were designed by Disney Imagineer Joe Rohde. I believe he said there are 7 cards to collect in all.
My final thoughts that this place is a wonderful addition to the parks & Animal Kingdom desperately needed this! Book your ADRs fast! If you cannot get into California Grill this would be a great replacement ADR.
