Prepare your taste buds for a culinary adventure at the Wailulu Bar & Grill. The name “Wailulu,” derived from the Hawaiian words for water (wai) and calm (lulu), reflects the tranquil ambiance this unique restaurant aims to provide. Situated with breathtaking views of the Seven Seas Lagoon, Wailulu will offer spacious indoor and outdoor seating, along with a spectacular bar that overlooks Cinderella Castle at Magic Kingdom Park.

The menu will feature a casual walk-up service for lunch and dinner, focusing on local and indigenous ingredients from the Polynesian Islands. Morning guests can enjoy specialty coffee and pastries to start their day off right. The dining area will be adorned with stunning Polynesian-inspired artwork, including floating tropical fish sculptures made from recycled materials and a grand textile piece that resembles a colorful coral reef.

In a delightful nod to Disney’s storytelling, a painting of Moana will grace the walls of Wailulu Bar & Grill, making it a perfect spot for fans of the beloved character.
