Dining at Walt Disney World is an experience in itself, but Epcot’s Space 220 restaurant takes it to a whole new level. But is the food and the experience worth the out-of-this-world price tag? In this comprehensive review, we’ll take you on a journey 220 miles above Earth to help you decide if you should book your flight on the “Stellarvator” for your next trip.
Epcot’s Space 220: An Immersive Experience to the Stars
Your adventure at Space 220 begins not at a table, but in a “space elevator” – the Stellarvator. As you ascend, a viewport on the floor shows you Epcot shrinking away, while a ceiling screen reveals the Centauri Space Station getting closer. This immersive launch is a highlight for many and sets the stage for the stellar meal ahead.
Once you arrive, you’ll step into a sleek, modern dining room with a breathtaking panoramic view of Earth. Throughout your meal, you’ll see astronauts floating by, spaceships docking, and even some fun, hidden surprises (keep an eye out for a space dog!). The attention to detail in the theming is what truly makes Space 220 a one-of-a-kind dining destination.

How to Get a Reservation at Space 220
Reservations for Space 220 are notoriously difficult to get. Here are a few tips:
- Book in Advance: Be ready to book online exactly 60 days before your trip at 6:00 AM EST.
- Use a Dining Alert Service: Services like MouseWatcher and MouseDining can notify you when a reservation becomes available.
- Try the Space 220 Lounge: The lounge offers an à la carte menu and is often easier to get into. You still get to ride the space elevator and enjoy the same amazing views. Walk-ins are sometimes accepted, especially earlier in the day.
Pro Tip: Head to Space 220 on arrival at Epcot and grab a reservation for later in the day. Or grab a seat at the bar!
