'Space 220' restaurant opens at Epcot: Prices, menu, and more
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. - Walt Disney World has officially opened its newest restaurant, ‘Space 220.'
Space 220 is located inside Epcot and described by Disney as an "out-of-this-world dining experience." The space-themed restaurant serves fine dining on a whole new level. Prix fixe menus are used and feature upscale, contemporary dishes inspired by ideas from far beyond Earth.
Guests begin their journey by checking into the Space 220 'Departure Lounge' in Future World. They will board one of two "space elevators" and travel what seems like 220 miles above Earth to the Centauri Space Station. While traveling up, guests can look down a viewport and see Epcot shrink away while the space station comes into view.

Once docked, Disney said that guests will enter the Centauri Space Station-themed dining area. There will be a panoramic view of Earth and both work and leisure activities will take place beyond the windows of the restaurant.
