Jiko-The Cooking Place is now open at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge

Jiko-The Cooking Place is now open at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge. One of the best food experiences in Walt Disney World, Jiko-The Cooking Place, has reopened after being closed for over 2 years. Vibrant spices, crackling wood-burning ovens, and boutique South African wines transport you to the heart of Africa.

African Cuisine

Discover a delicious blend of traditional African, Indian and Mediterranean cuisine. Steak, chicken, seafood and plant-based dishes are infused with a uniquely bold blend of tantalizing flavors and fragrant spices.

Changing seasonally, the menu may include flavor bursting appetizers like imaginative brick oven-fired flatbreads and mouth-watering entrées such as oak-grilled filet mignon.

The children’s menu features pizza, grilled chicken or steak, and market-fresh fish served with ancient grains and vegetables.

Reservations
Advance reservations are highly recommended. Learn when advance reservations can be made. This location does not accept same-day bookings.

Savanna Sunset

Twin wood-burning ovens roar as subtly changing light mimics the warm red, orange, and gold tones of an African sunset. Watch chefs prepare appetizers in the open show kitchen, and after dinner, stroll through the grounds of Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge to encounter more than 30 species of African wildlife in lush, natural habitats.
