We had the pleasure of dining at the newest restaurant in EPCOT at Walt Disney World, Shiki-Sai: Sushi Izakaya. I am excited to share our review of this new Disney dining experience. Here, visitors are promised an authentic Japanese dining experience intertwined with innovative twists. This space was previously home to Tokyo Dining, which had a menu that combined traditional food culture dating back to the Edo period with the spirit of modern Tokyo. August 28, 2023, was the restaurant’s official grand opening, and we enjoyed being there.
Shiki-Sai: Sushi Izakaya serves Japanese dishes such as Kobore Sushi, Tokyo Negi Roll, Funamori, and The Monster Roll. Teppan items and an open sushi bar and grill are also on the menu. Guests at the sushi bar can watch the chefs making sushi first-hand. One of the best qualities of the previous restaurant was its gorgeous views of World Showcase, which was an excellent spot to watch fireworks. I am happy to report that there are still tables near the windows, and the beautiful scenery can still be seen.
Before we jump into the food we ordered, I want to touch on the restaurant’s interior and theme. Disney made some minor changes, but it overall improved the space from what it used to be. I love that almost anywhere you sit, guests can see the food being prepared; in my opinion, this makes a dining location even better.
The restaurant’s theme revolved around Shiki-Sai, the Festival of the Four Seasons. This is an Izakaya-style dining location. Izakaya is a traditional gastropub where friends and family come together to share the joy of one another’s company and various dishes. On the menu, it says, for an authentic Izakaya experience, select an assortment of delicacies, all crafted with the finest ingredients reflecting the flavors of each season.
The summer festival is called the Tanabata Festival. In Japan, people celebrate this festival by making decorations, attending parades, eating noodles, and making wishes. The heartfelt wishes are written on colorful paper strips and hung on bamboo branches. Our server brought us colorful pieces of paper resembling bookmarks at the end of our meal. She told us to write our wishes down, but she also offered to write them in Japanese. We took her up on that offer, which is a moment we will never forget.
As for the food, it’s not served in the traditional style of appetizers and entrees. Here, the food comes out based on when it is done being prepared in the kitchen. This reminds me of tapas-style dining, which I enjoy.
Craig, Ryno, and I wanted to order something from each menu section to ensure we tried everything.
The most impressive item we ordered was the Hashi Bridge, which is $100 and serves 2-4 people. This bridge is filled with sushi and sashimi that the chef selects. Our assortment included Tuna rolls, Cucumber rolls, Tuna sashimi, Yellowtail sashimi, Salmon sashimi, Scallop nigiri, Octopus nigiri, Shrimp nigiri, Eel nigiri, and of course there was ginger and wasabi.
Ryno and I ordered a side of spicy mayo because we love to dip our sushi in it. The spicy mayo was not complimentary; it was an extra charge. For a dollar, we got a portion that wasn’t enough for us, but we made it work.
The sushi and sashimi were fresh, and I got to try new things I’ve never pushed myself to try. I had never eaten eel or scallops before, and I was hesitant to try either, but with the help of Ryno and Craig, I was able to muster up the courage. I was not a fan of the scallop. The texture was not something I loved. Surprisingly, I enjoyed the eel; it didn’t taste extremely fishy. Craig kept saying it tasted like chicken, which I slightly agree with. The texture is very reminiscent of a flaky fish like tilapia.
I ordered the Vegetable Okonomiyaki ($25), a Japanese pancake filled with veggies and covered in sweet and savory sauces. Ryno did not care for this dish, but I absolutely loved it. It’s a large serving perfect for sharing, but if I were to go back, I’d order this and not share it with anyone. There’s another version of this dish filled with bacon, and I think Ryno would enjoy that one.
Craig ordered the Grilled Wagyu Gyoza ($20) with three pieces. These are pan-fried dumplings filled with smoky A5 Japanese wagyu beef. He loved these, and so did Ryno. Craig mentioned that the meat’s taste was reminiscent of a hamburger but in a good way.
Ryno ordered a show-stopping food item called Kara-age Chicken ($12), Japanese-style fried chicken flavored with garlic and ginger, served with lemon. This was delicious. I would return and order this in a heartbeat, and everyone at the table would agree. This is an excellent option for anyone who might be a less adventurous eater.
I also ordered the Agedashi Tofu ($14), deep-fried tofu with shimeji mushrooms in a flavorful broth. This wasn’t the best dish in my opinion, but I think it’s a great option to have on a menu. For any of our vegan friends, if you want this, ask for it without the sauce because it’s made with fish broth. I tried it without the broth first to see what that would be like as a vegan option, and it was just okay. It would be better if the tofu were just a bit crispier. Once I added the broth, it elevated the dish and made it better flavor-wise.
Craig ordered the Unagi Don ($38), a grilled freshwater eel served over tamagoyaki on a bed of steamed rice, drizzled with a savory sauce. He said this dish was very filling and that it was delicious. The portion isn’t huge, but the rice is very thick, and so is the cut of eel.
Ryno ordered the Ishiyaki-sukiyaki Rice ($28), grilled strips of beef in a hot stone bowl cooked tableside along with spinach, and rice in a sweet garlic sauce. He loves it when anything is cooked tableside, so he had to order it. I loved watching the dish be made at our table. It added a fun show element.
Unfortunately, there were no dairy-free desserts on the menu, so I couldn’t participate in this round, but Craig and Ryno ordered some delicious-looking sweets to end their meal.
Craig ordered the Mango Mousse Cake ($10). This dessert consists of mango mousse with a sweet mango glaze. He absolutely loved this dessert. Ryno tried it, too, and thought it was the perfect way to end the meal.
Ryno ordered the Yuzu Cheesecake ($10). This dessert is a creamy delight with a hint of tangy citrus zest. He mentioned that this treat had more than just a hint of the tangy citrus zest, which made this dessert second place to the mango mousse.
We had a wonderful experience at EPCOT’s newest restaurant. It was a beautiful venue, the staff was out of this world, and the food quality was phenomenal. At the end of our meal, we realized that even though this may not be listed as a signature dining location, it should be treated like one. We say that because the food presentation was gorgeous, and the cast members went above and beyond. The restaurant’s overall feel was just better than any other “normal” table service location at EPCOT.
This restaurant is on the pricier side, and the bill can add up pretty quickly, but we agree with the price point on most food items because of how fresh everything was. It’s also easy to see how much work the kitchen puts into each dish, which we don’t always see in theme parks. We’d all return here again, especially since the menu and restaurant change with the seasons.
You can watch the video version of this review below.

The theme for the Halloween Horror Nights 32 Tribute Store is a journey through comic books featuring your wildest nightmares springing to life on each page. With the Tribute Store back in New York, there are once again four highly themed rooms to explore.
We’ve compiled a full tour of the tribute store below.
We already detailed all of the references and Easter eggs in the comic book shop façade of the Tribute Store.
Some of the past Halloween Horror Nights characters referenced include Charlie McPherson, the subject of the Dead Exposure house at Halloween Horror Nights 18: Reflections of Fear, and Detective Boris Shuster, who worked with Charlie and was also featured in Case Files Unearthed: Legendary Truth, a Halloween Horror Nights 30 house.
The display windows also feature Universal Monsters and Earl the Squirrel.
In the entryway are shelves of comic books and cases of merchandise. On the counter and walls are posters, including one for the Summer Music Fest that acts as the setting for Vamp ’69, the scare zone that will be right outside the Tribute Store.
An album mounted on the wall features Hollow Hills Cemetery, which we’ll circle back to in the next room. There’s also an ad for Spooky Sounds of Halloween featuring Earl the Squirrel.
The fake store is McPherson’s Collectibles. Charlie McPherson was a photographer who was being treated by Dr. Mary Agana, a.k.a. Bloody Mary, when he began seeing horrific images whenever he took pictures. Bloody Mary’s unorthodox treatments trapped McPherson in Dead Exposure, a nightmare realm guests journeyed through that featured a zombie apocalypse illuminated by the flashbulb of Charlie’s camera.
In this display case are several Universal Monsters action figures.
On the counter is an action figure of The Curator, a brand-new character, although his design is inspired by another spooky storyteller: The Cryptkeeper.
The Cryptkeeper was Halloween Horror Nights’s first real “icon” at HHN V in 1995. He led the event with Cryptkeeper’s Dungeon of Terror house. He returned in 1996 with The Crypt Keeper’s Studio Tour of Terror and The Crypt Keeper’s Festival of the Dead Parade. Fourteen years later, he was back in the HHN: 20 Years of Fear scare zone. At Halloween Horror Nights 25, he was in the ICONS: HHN scare zone.
One ad hanging above the counter is for the Boris Shuster novels that have been turned into comics. There are also ads for “Thrilling Wonder Stories.”
This box contains small films of classics like Woody Woodpecker and Hopalong Cassidy.
A sticker on the side of the vintage cash register is for Tribute Store Comics.
On the bottom shelf are real magazines about Universal Monsters.
The comics available include the following Boris Shuster stories:
There are also several Tribute to Terror comics and more that we saw in the windows outside:
The Rhyme of the Corn, The In-Between, and Asylum in Wonderland comic books were also in Halloween Horror Nights 28’s Seeds of Extinction, which also had a reference to Charlie McPherson. HHN 28 also had a Dead Exposure sequel house, but it wasn’t about Charlie.
Above the shelves is a display case of monster masks (including Jack the Clown), a Dracula mystery game, and other small items.
By the door is a cardboard cutout of The Curator.
A speech bubble next to him reads, “Terrifying New Issue! Available Now!” He holds up an issue of Tribute to Terror.
Guests then step through the cover of Tribute to Terror, a collection of 4 horrifying stories.
Each of the following rooms is inspired by one of these original horror stories.
The Curator introduces guests to the first story, saying, “We find ourselves in Hollow Hills Cemetery, on an appropriately creepy evening. Bernie and Jack are local lowflies who are always out to make a quick buck… But tonight, they will learn that their actions may have some seriously…”
“GRAVE CONSEQUENCES”
Hollow Hills cemetery was one of the rooms in last year’s Halloween Tribute Store.
This year, many of the cemetery decorations are flat and painted to look more like the pages of a comic book.
Flat figures of Bernie and Jack are throughout the room.
One of them complains, while the other insists they press on.
The merchandise displays in the center of the room are topped with gravestones and obelisks.
Comic panels also line the walls, filling in the details of the story.
The merchandise displays on the walls are surrounded by dashed lines like they can be cut out of the pages of a comic.
A skeleton pulls itself out of the ground in front of an obelisk.
Two other large skeletons surround the graverobbers.
The next story is a Boris Shuster mystery. All of Shuster’s stories are based on real events he experienced.
The Curator, now dressed in a trenchcoat and fedora, says, “Welcome to the Big Apple! The city that never sleeps… But that doesn’t stop it from having its fair share of… NIGHTMARES! Better beware. This one is a story I like to call…”
“FALSE IDOLS PART 1”
Before entering the room proper, guests pass a loading zone platform and a fish person figure hiding in the corner.
Above the doorway is the glowing window for Shuster Bros. Private Investigations.
The fish person holds a newspaper declaring “More Strange Sightings in the City, Disappearances on the Rise.”
This entire section of the Tribute Store is black and white, with a sharp contrast to make even three-dimensional props look like flat comic book pages.
Projections across the room make it appear as though it’s raining.
The projections even extend to raindrops hitting the floor.
There are several missing persons flyers on the walls.
As guests leave the shipping and receiving door, they enter the Shuster Bros. office. More comic panels and posters are on the walls.
A magnifying glass sits on the desk.
It highlights the words “fish people” on a document.
A desk lamp appears to shine on the desk, although it’s really just painted to look like light.
There are also streaks of rain painted on the backward window.
Detective Boris Schuster founded Legendary Truth, an association that investigates the evil behind Halloween Horror Nights. Charlie McPherson’s disappearance led to Schuster’s investigations of Dr. Mary Agana (Bloody Mary). At the same time, Tim Foyle began investigating Schuster’s records in 1991.
Schuster was amassing information (and writing novels) related to the Legions of Horror and their totems. Using the books and notes, Foyle collected the totems and opened a portal that unleashed unspeakable monsters on October 31, 1991, implying that the horrors he unleashed are the reason behind Halloween Horror Nights, which also began that year.
There’s a door to the office that figures appear to walk past.
A silhouette appears in the window.
The figure’s shadow is even on the floor in front of the door.
You may be wondering about “Shuster Bros.,” considering a brother has never been mentioned in Boris’ story before.
Well, according to some of the comic book panels on the walls, this case cost Shuster his partner/brother.
A Mold-A-Rama in this room lets guests create their own Bride of Frankenstein figure.
An example figure was not yet on display.
A set of lockers and suitcases against a wall resembling a subway tunnel.
Remember this Cthulhu-like figure? We last spotted it in the Boris Shuster window of Universal Studios Florida’s New York.
The figure is a “cult relic” related to the fish people.
In the story, Boris is accompanied by a mysterious woman as they hunt down the fish people. They also encounter Obed Guttmann, who has a cane topped with a similar Cthulhu figure.
This room includes a poster advertising “G.E.R.G.” – Geochronological Error Regulators & Ghosthunters. The group’s mascot is a llama.
Gerg the Llama has been referenced in the past several Tribute Stores. At the 2021 Halloween Tribute Store, a ride operator had a reminder to buy a gift for Greg the Llama. Gregory celebrated a birthday at the 2022 Summer Tribute Store. At the 2022 Holiday Tribute Store, an ad for the Trapper Hat Observation Tower & Petting Zoo said you can meet Gerg the Llama (again celebrating a birthday). A poster at the 2023 Mardi Gras Tribute Store advertised Gerg “The Llama” McWilliams and the Matte Finish Orchestra.
There’s also a poster for the Dead Coconut Drive-In Theater. Revenge of the Dead Coconut Club will open at CityWalk soon.
Some “false idols” are displayed as though for sale next to another image of The Curator.
A Finnegan’s Bar & Grill sign hangs from the ceiling, although you might be more concerned with the giant tentacled monster with glowing red eyes. The monster hangs above the exit of this room.
On the ground is a figure of Boris facing the creature.
Guests transition between the next two rooms through the Hallway of Frights.
In here, several custom comic books are on display. Universal Studios Florida guests had the opportunity to get their picture on a Tribute to Terror comic book that they will be able to take home at the end of the Halloween season.
There are more stories to come, and now it’s time to “Pay Up!” The Curator appears in a motorcycle jacket and flat cap, saying, “Ah, Jim’s Diner! A classic join in a classic town. And what’s that I hear? The rumble of motorcycles? The local gang is on their way to pay a visit to old Jim. I have a feeling they may be in for more than just a fine cup of coffee and a slice of cherry pie…”
A motorcycle is parked next to the Jim’s Diner façade, and guests will actually hear it rumble.
The comic panels on the walls depict the biker gang arriving at Jim’s Diner.
There’s a jukebox next to a diner bench.
Sitting on the bench is a skeletal figure in a trenchcoat and hat.
He has a sandwich and a knocked-over drink in front of him.
There’s a Mummy Mold-A-Rama machine.
A demonic figure is behind a counter with red stools, demanding the bikers “pay up!”
Lights project green splotches swirling around the demon.
Another dead person is sitting at the counter.
At the room’s exit, The Curator says, “Well, kids, looks like they all had to pick up the tab on this one! Crime may not pay, but these criminals certainly did!”
This is where special snacks are also available.
The final story is “Eyes of the Ripper.” The Curator welcomes guests to the Whitechapel District of London in 1888, the year and location Jack the Ripper wreaked terror.
The room is made up of stone façades with fake windows and missing posters.
The comic panels tell the story of the Ripper.
One Jack the Ripper figure with glowing red eyes and a large knife peers out of a doorway.
Another figure is at the far end of the room, near the cash registers.
The comic story theorizes Jack the Ripper wasn’t a man, but a monster.
The description below the last Ripper figure reads:
Whether man or beast, he has never been caught. And to this very day, his identity is a mystery.
So if you find yourself in the Whitechapel area, be sure to check every alley, every doorway, and every corner…
For you never know if the Ripper might still be lurking.
Guests exit through a hallway of black and white stone.
As shown by a street sign that’s half black-and-white and half green, the hallway moves into color as guests return to the real world.
There are more posters for Dead Coconut Club and the Vamp ’69 scare zone.
In the vestibule at the end is a medallion machine.
The medallion designs feature Vecna from “Stranger Things,” the Hellfire club logo also from “Stranger Things,” Chucky, and Lil’ Boo.
There’s a newsstand by the exit, with more custom Tribute to Terror comics.
The green newsstand is covered in graffiti and the candy on the shelves is dirty. The Curator sits behind the window.
There are stacks of newspapers.
One stack is stained with something reddish-brown.
Stay tuned for our video tour of the Halloween Tribute Store.

We did something you might not expect: We just left Disney World for Universal Studios Florida.
Universal Orlando
Well, we mean, we didn’t LEAVE Disney World for good, but we did decide to put behind our favorite Disney World hotels to try out a hotel at Universal. But we didn’t stay at just any old hotel: we stayed at the most expensive hotel on Universal property — Loews Portofino Bay. So come with us to see what staying in such a swanky hotel is like!
So the hotel’s atmosphere is built around Italian theming, but unlike theming at Disney World hotels, it felt like some of the theming elements were painted on: for example, the brick walls were just painted to look like bricks. But after spending some time there, it does feel like you’re walking around Italy, especially with all the winding pathways (which can be hard to navigate at times, but totally worth it).
The feel is very Italian
If we had to compare it to a Disney World hotel, though, we don’t think we’d consider it as grand as a deluxe Disney World hotel, but it did feel a little more grand than some of the Disney Vacation Club resorts (like Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort or Disney’s Old Key West Resort).
However, what blew us away was the live opera on the Piazza, which is the beautiful centerpiece of the hotel — and a place that gets very lively at night.
The best part of staying at Portofino Bay, though, is that you get Unlimited Express for Universal FREE. This pass usually costs at LEAST $120, and it allows you to skip the line at Universal attractions. We love you, Disney World, but you couldn’t even — imagine getting free Genie+ with deluxe hotel stays? That would be a game-changer.
The hotel also has a lot of amenities, including three themed pools, all with a different vibe.
Minion Blast at Universal
The hotel has nine dining spots, including a Gelateria and Starbucks (like you gotta’ have a Starbucks, right?). The food was, obviously Italian, and everything we tried was good. There’s also a VERY extensive room service menu.
Finally, transportation to and from the parks is provided with both bus and boat options.
Okay, so let’s get to the important stuff: what are the rooms like? Well, this is considered a luxury hotel. We didn’t think the room was exciting, but the rooms were spacious, so we had plenty of room to move around. Our room had two queen beds.
The room
The beds were comfy, and we had more than enough pillows.
Pillows
There was also a nice table with chairs where we could do our work, if we needed to. The artwork in the room is, of course, Italian.
Table and chairs
There’s a TV and dresser opposite the bed. As you can see, though, there isn’t a TON of theming in the room and it does seem a little plain.
Another view of the room
There’s also a table between the beds with a phone, mirror, and places to plug in our devices (VERY important!).
Between the beds
There was a very comfy chair and footstool beside the doors that lead out to the balcony (yep, we had a balcony).
We liked this chair
Speaking of the balcony, it has a table and three chairs. We had a view of the water, which was nice.
Not a bad view
The room also had a Keurig coffee maker with a variety of coffees and teas, as well as sweetener, sugar, and coffee supplies.
Coffee
There’s a mini fridge, too, if you need it.
Mini fridge
The closet space was ample — AND there were robes. Gotta’ love a fluffy hotel robe, right?
Robes
You’ll also find an ironing board and in-room safe in the closet.
Ironing board and in-room safe
Let’s talk about our FAVORITE part of the room: the bathroom. It’s MASSIVE. There’s an area for the toilet…
HUGE bathroom
…an area with a huge mirror and two sinks…
Huge mirror
…and a tub with a shower.
Tub and shower
The amenities here are Julien Farel branded.
Amenities
But let’s talk about the important thing here: price.
So this IS the most expensive hotel at Universal, and rooms run around $400 per night. Now we thought the amenities put the hotel on equal footing with a Disney World deluxe hotel like Disney’s Contemporary Resort. However, the price is actually closer to what you might pay at a cheaper Disney World deluxe hotel or even a moderate hotel.
That view, though
So you’re basically getting the equivalent of a Disney World deluxe hotel for far less than what you might pay for that hotel in Disney World.
So we would say it was worth it to leave Disney World for a few nights and stay at Portofino Bay. We know a lot of Disney World guests go to Universal, too, so this could be a great option for your family if you want to stay there!
Stay tuned to DFB for more.

Cruise on into Flo’s V8 Cafe for the Spicy Chicken & Fries, returning this Halloween season at Disney California Adventure.
Flo’s V8 Cafe is located in Cars Land at Disney California Adventure.
Steak Fries topped with Chicken Tenders tossed in a Mango-Habanero Sauce, drizzled with Ranch Dressing, and finished with Green Onions
This was excellent. The glaze was thick, with lots of corn starch, but the flavor is pleasant and really sticks to the chicken, which is a standard chicken tender. The ranch on the fries cools you down a bit, which is nice because this does have a touch of heat.
The heat isn’t intense but is enough for a spicy food fan. It’s nice to have a sweet, fruitier option than the traditional buffalo chicken tender found elsewhere. Overall, we would get it again.
Halloween offerings at Disneyland will be available through November 9.

When you drink around the World, where do you begin?
Mexico
Yes, we know we just started a SERIOUS debate from the start on the left side vs. start on the right side crowd at EPCOT’s World Showcase. We’ll admit we generally go left to Mexico because we think that pavilion has some of the BEST drinks. Mostly, we also just love La Cava del Tequila, and now we have even MORE of a reason to head there first.
Believe it or not, La Cava del Tequila is celebrating its 14th anniversary at the Mexico Pavilion in World Showcase, and in honor of that, you’ll be able to try a VERY exclusive limited-edition tequila. Only 400 bottles of Tequila Codigo 1530 were ever made, so once it’s gone, it’s gone. This is one of the oldest and most rare bottles of tequila, so if you manage to get a sip of it, you’re in for a treat.

That’s not all, though. You’ll also be able to grab a special margarita to help La Cava del Tequila celebrate its big 14th anniversary. The Chica de Humo is made with Montelobos pechuga, guava puree, citrus juice, LeJay blackcurrant liquor, activated charcoal, and rose petal-hibiscus salt rim. Doesn’t that sound delightful?

So, if you’re a fan of La Cava like we are, be sure to pop in and wish them a Happy Anniversary while you pull up a chair and grab a drink!
