Dinner at The Wave

The Wave, located at Disney’s Contemporary Resort, has long been one of our top favorite resort table service restaurants. We always enjoy the atmosphere and the delicious food. Brandon and I often call this a hidden gem, because it’s not a table service restaurant that guests immediately think of when considering resort dining. But, we can’t recommend it enough as a great option, including for those with special dietary needs. Back in October, we had a chance to enjoy dinner at The Wave, which is our favorite meal service at the restaurant.

Lunch at The Wave

The Wave, located at Disney’s Contemporary Resort, is a favorite in our family. We love it for both breakfast and dinner, but it’s not one we go to as much for lunch. Recently, my family came into town to celebrate my birthday, and we decided to try The Wave out again for lunch.
