Topolino’s Terrace – Flavors of the Riviera is one of the many restaurants coming to the new Disney’s Riviera Resort this Fall. Located on the top floor of the resort, it’s named after “Topolino,” Mickey Mouse himself. I don’t know if I’d call it a “Mickey Mouse Restaurant” per se, but there will be some influence for sure.

Topolino’s Terrace is going to be a signature table-service restaurant which will feature authentic dishes with French and Italian influences.  There’s also going to be a character breakfast experience here in the morning inspired by the Riviera, and at night it will turn into one of the most exclusive and elegant dinner locations in Walt Disney World.

It’s funny when I first read the name: Topolino’s Terrace – Flavors of the Riviera, because living in Italy for part of the year everyone there calls Mickey Mouse Topolino, which when translated means literally: “little mouse.”  They don’t really know him as Mickey Mouse and it’s written this way on most of their cartoons, especially the older ones.

Theming/Atmosphere:

Topolino's Terrace Flavors of the Riviera Food Preview breakfast

Inspired by the cliffside restaurants of France and Italy, Topolino’s Terrace – Flavors of the Riviera helps celebrate the grandeur of Europe that has long inspired many beloved Disney stories over the years.

It is located on the top floor of the Riviera Resort hotel in a beautiful indoor terrace, which will have some of the most amazing views in all Walt Disney World. Being positioned so close, it’s going to be a great place to take in the fireworks shows at both Epcot and Hollywood Studios.

Just looking at the concept art for the restaurant, it doesn’t seem like it’s really themed all that much to Mickey Mouse, but one would think if his name is in the title of the restaurant they will work it in there, probably besides the character dining too.  I’m sure there will be lots of hidden Mickeys throughout and of course he will be coming out for the character dining.

Review:

Topolino’s Terrace – Flavors of the Riviera is not currently open. As soon as it is we’ll have a full review for you…

Storybook Breakfast Dining Experience:

If you’re starting the morning off with the Storybook Breakfast Dining Experience, you’ll find yourself dining in the beautiful indoor rooftop restaurant with bird’s eye views and character greetings from some of your favorite Disney friends: Mickey, Minnie, Donald, and Daisy. Breakfast begins with fresh pastries including Danish pastries, croissants, blueberry scones, or Epi bread (a rustic pull-apart baguette shaped like a wheat stalk).

Entrées include dishes like quiche Gruyère with house-made pancetta, sour cream waffles, wood-fired butcher’s steak, smoked salmon, plant-based omelets, and more.

The Storybook Breakfast Dining Experience will be offered daily 7:30–11:00 a.m. and can count as one table service entitlement for breakfast on the Disney Dining Plan.

Evening Dinner Experience:

For the evening dining experience, guests will enjoy a selection of fresh oak-grilled meats, classically-prepared seafood, handmade pastas, and decadent desserts infused with French and Italian flavors.

Topolino's Riviera Resort Burrata

Start off your meal with a Burrata con panna with black winter truffle and sea salt or gnocchi with duck confit and aged parmesan.

Beef Filet

Entrées include options such as rigatoni (with braised chicken, charred artichokes, and crème fraiche), bouillabaisse (with seared cod, mussels, turbot, clams, and saffron rouille), king salmon mi-cuit, and beef filet. You’ll also find a great selection of wine from the Mediterranean to pair with your meal as Topolino’s carries many vintages from France and Italy.

One of the best parts of the dining experience is that it’s going to be located on the top floor of Disney’s Riviera Resort and will have amazing views of the fireworks shows both in Epcot and Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

Though the entree selections look amazing, but the best part looks to me like the dessert course! The Fruits of the Forest with black currant mousse, blueberry sorbet, macerated berries, and hibiscus cake looks insane! Or try the pistachio mousse with pistachio cake, lemon curd, and morello cherry.

Dessert at Topolino's in Disney's Riviera Resort

Evening dining will be from 5:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. and will count as two table service entitlements for dinner on the Disney Dining Plan. Discounts for Annual Passholders and Disney Vacation Club Members will also be available. There will also be a minimum dress code for evening dining.

I get that this is a signature dining experience and they don’t want it turning into Chef Mickey’s at night, but with a name like Topolino’s Terrace – Flavors of the Riviera I would have thought they’d have worked him into the theming just a tad more.  I’ll have to wait and see the final product I guess…

I do think that having a character breakfast here is great and will give parents with children staying at the new Riviera Resort a nice option which will be fun for the whole family.  Smart move by Disney.

Reservations Now Available:

The first Dining Reservations can be made for Topolino’s Terrace can be made for December 16. For more information on the dress code and the restaurant, visit the Walt Disney World Resort website or call 407 WDW-DINE (407 939-3463).

It sure sounds like there are some pretty good dining choices coming to Disney’s Riviera Resort when it opens on December 16, 2019 and another great new venue…

One of the best things about the Riviera Resort is that it will be located right on the newest transportation system in Walt Disney World, the Disney Skyliner.  That means it’s going to be easy to jump on or off and be in Epcot or Hollywood Studios in less than 10 minutes.

Check out the new concept art Disney released today for the Disney Skyliner station at the Riviera Resort and see what are some of the designs coming to the gondola cars.

Also we got a first look at the Riviera Resort rooms which are very sleek and modern but promise at use Disney art too.
