What could be better than an upscale dining experience where the food is complemented by impeccable service and only slightly outshined by 180-degree views of the sun setting over the ocean? Take the same restaurant, make it adults-only and put it on a cruise ship full of kids. If that sounds like an ideal date night and you like French food, then the Remy restaurant on Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy should be on your splurge list.
Disney Cruise Line is known for its rotational dining system, where each night you try a different complimentary restaurant, each with its own theme and often some dinner entertainment. A meal at Remy provides a break from the rotation, but if you don't want to skip dinner at any of the three rotational dining restaurants, you don't have to miss out on French cuisine. That's because Remy also serves brunch and a dessert service on cruises that are four nights or longer.
After trying out Remy for myself on Disney Dream, I'm confident this is a meal worth splurging on if you're looking for an adults-only dinner on a ship filled with kids.
Remy is the French restaurant nestled on Deck 12 of Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy. It offers an upscale atmosphere with plush seating, tables draped with white tablecloths, dark wood furnishings and warm lighting. Be sure to look for a small glass statue of Remy, the character from the Disney and Pixar movie "Ratatouille," near the restaurant's entrance. The two bottles of wine on display as you walk into the restaurant were featured in the movie, too.
The restaurant is open for dinner every evening. Brunch and a dessert experience can be booked on sailings that are four nights or longer. Reservations for each meal service are highly recommended and can be made before your cruise on the Disney Cruise Line Navigator app or once you're on board the ship.
The restaurant has three distinct rooms where guests can dine. The first is the main area, where sweeping ocean views are on full display throughout your meal. The second is a private dining space called the Wine Room, where more than 900 bottles of wine are showcased in a glass-enclosed room.
The last room is the Gusteau Room, another private dining room with scenes of Paris from "Ratatouille" on the walls. Here, foodies can opt for one of two distinct experiences: a dinner for two with the regular Remy menu or a set chef's menu for groups of eight or more. Whichever you choose, expect the head chef to stop by to talk about the dishes you're enjoying.
To dine in this room, you must request a reservation via a form that can be downloaded from the Disney Cruise Line website, attached to an email and sent to [email protected]. The earlier you submit your reservation, the better
