2026 Michelin Guide Plaques for Victoria & Albert’s, Cítricos and Toledo

The hardware has arrived. Three Disney World Michelin restaurants have received their official 2026 MICHELIN Guide plaques: Victoria & Albert’s, Cítricos, and Toledo. The plaques celebrate the recognition the restaurants earned in the 2026 Florida guide earlier this year.

The Walt Disney World Ambassadors marked the moment on Instagram, writing that they got to celebrate “with the chefs and teams at Victoria & Albert’s, Cítricos and Toledo whose passion, creativity and dedication help make these world-class dining experiences possible.”

Quick Summary

• Victoria & Albert’s, Cítricos, and Toledo have received their official 2026 MICHELIN Guide plaques.
• Victoria & Albert’s holds its Michelin Star for a third consecutive year, after first earning it in 2024.
• Cítricos at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa and Toledo at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort are Michelin recommended in the 2026 Florida guide.
• The plaques celebrate recognition announced earlier in 2026.

Victoria & Albert’s Holds Its Star

Victoria & Albert’s at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa remains the top of the Walt Disney World dining scene. It first earned a Michelin Star in 2024 and has now held it for three straight years, making it the most decorated dining experience on property. We covered the news when Victoria & Albert’s held its Michelin Star for a third consecutive year.

The MICHELIN Guide described the restaurant as offering “a kind of magic rarely seen these days,” praising its intimate setting and unhurried pace led by veteran servers.

The kitchen draws on classic technique and global influences. Highlighted dishes include:

• Tuna with caviar and lychee
• King salmon with mole verde
• Parisian gnocchi with fontina and date
• Venison braised with a juniper and porcini crust, with sunchoke purée

The wine program, water list, and coffee and tea service also received recognition.

How a Michelin Star Is Awarded

A Michelin Star is based on five criteria:

• Quality of ingredients
• Harmony of flavors
• Mastery of technique
• The chef’s personality expressed through the food
• Consistency over time

That last point is why holding a star for three years in a row matters. It’s not just about one great night. It’s about delivering at the same level, visit after visit.

Cítricos and Toledo Earn Michelin Recognition

Victoria & Albert’s isn’t the only Disney restaurant in the guide. Both Cítricos and Toledo received Michelin recommended status in the 2026 Florida guide, which places them among the restaurants the guide’s inspectors consider worth a visit.

Cítricos

Cítricos is the Grand Floridian’s other fine-dining spot, just steps from Victoria & Albert’s. It’s a more relaxed signature dining experience, which makes it a great option if you want a special meal without committing to Victoria & Albert’s tasting menu or price point.

Toledo – Tapas, Steak & Seafood

Toledo sits atop the Gran Destino Tower at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort. Its rooftop setting and views make it a standout, and its Michelin recommendation is a nice nod to a restaurant that doesn’t get as much attention as the resort restaurants closer to Magic Kingdom.

Tips for Planning a Michelin Night at Disney World

A dinner at one of these restaurants takes a little more planning than a typical park meal. A few things to keep in mind:

• Check the dress code. Victoria & Albert’s has a formal dress code, and the other two lean toward resort-dressy. Pack accordingly if you’re flying in.
• Read the age policy. Victoria & Albert’s has a minimum age for guests, so check the current policy before booking a family dinner.
• Plan your transportation. Cítricos and Victoria & Albert’s are on the monorail at the Grand Floridian, and Toledo is at Coronado Springs, which is easiest by bus, car, or rideshare.
• Give it a full evening. A tasting menu at Victoria & Albert’s can take several hours, so don’t schedule fireworks or a park visit right after.
• Watch for the plaques. Now that they’ve arrived, keep an eye out for them when you visit. They’re a fun detail for food fans.

Should You Book One of These Restaurants?

If you’re celebrating something special, these are three of the best places to do it at Walt Disney World. Here’s how they compare:

• Victoria & Albert’s: The once-in-a-lifetime pick. Expect a long tasting menu, a dress code, and a premium price. Book well in advance.
• Cítricos: A strong signature dining choice for a nice dinner without the full Victoria & Albert’s commitment.
• Toledo: A great pick for views and shareable tapas, plus steak and seafood.

All three take reservations through My Disney Experience. Victoria & Albert’s in particular books up quickly, so plan ahead, especially around holidays.

The Bottom Line

Victoria & Albert’s, Cítricos, and Toledo have their official 2026 MICHELIN Guide plaques. Victoria & Albert’s keeps its Michelin Star for a third straight year, and Cítricos and Toledo are Michelin recommended in the 2026 Florida guide. If you’re planning a special dinner at Walt Disney World, any of these three is a strong choice, depending on your budget and how big a night you want.

I’m no stranger to Disney planning, as a Disneyland magic key holder and DVC member. I’m the person people ask for trip planning advice. But I had never been on a Disney cruise, and had heard great about Nate and decided to reach out. I’m so glad I did because we could not have been happier with our experience. His tips and insights were incredibly helpful, and he was incredibly responsive any time we had a question. Who do the Disney experts turn to when they need help? Nate, that’s who.

We’ll definitely be using him again.

Our experience working with Nate as our Disney vacation planner was exceptional. He was responsive and thorough. He gave us insights that made the trip go much more smoothly. We were able to really relax and focus on quality time as a family and have so much fun doing it! I will definitely reach out for any future trips.

Could not have wanted or expected more from Nate, our Distrips and More agent as we planned our 2025 Disney World trip. Nate was VERY responsive to emails and texts and more than willing to do whatever he could to guide us and answer our questions.  On several occasions I emailed him over the weekend not expecting a response until Monday but each time he responded before the weekend was over.  He even participated in a Zoom session with our group of five seniors as we planned our trip. He also helped us at the 11th hour when we added a family member to our travel group less than a month before our trip.  Without a doubt, I will reach out to Nate when I'm ready to plan my next trip to Disney World!

We are so thankful we used Nate to plan not only our first Disney trip, but also our second. He made the process so easy for us, especially for us since it was our first time going. There was a lot to consider and many decisions to make, such as where to stay, when to go, and what to experience. Nate really helped us narrow down what we wanted to do overall, but he didn’t stop there. He provided detailed guides to help us navigate the airport and find our transportation to the resort, as well as a guide to explore the resorts and make sure we saw the best Christmas decorations. One of the many amazing things he also did was set up our dinner reservations for us. This saved us so much stress and allowed us to get some of our top choices. From the moment we landed in Orlando to the moment we headed back home, he made sure everything went smoothly. You truly can’t go wrong with going to him for your next trip.

Nathan has been an amazing trip planner for me! So helpful and responsive. I am a very type A person -- so someone who is even more on top of their game than me -- is so so appreciated! Nathan has booked 3 trips for me (1 completed 2 pending) and it was perfection. Thanks again!

Nate has helped us with our vacation planning for the last couple of years and we couldn't be happier with his service and expertise. We've used other travel agents in the past and none of them have done as phenomenal a job to make sure every detail is taken care of as he has. Switching to Nate was one of the best decisions we've ever made. He's always quick to answer questions and works tirelessly to make sure we get everything we want from our trips. Plus, he's just a genuinely great person who is wonderful to work with. Whether you're planning a trip to Walt Disney World, Disneyland, a Disney Cruise, or any other vacation, Nate is the guy you want putting it all together! Five stars across the board!
