Paddlefish at Disney Springs

Paddlefish is a restaurant located inside a steamboat on the lake of Disney Springs. The steamboat stays docked at The Landing at all times, though guests still get the feeling of dining on the water.

The steamboat structure originally opened in 1977 as the Empress Lilly, which was named after Walt Disney’s wife, Lillian Disney. In 1996, Fulton’s Crab House took over the space, and remained its sole occupant until the restaurant was turned into Paddlefish in 2017. Both Fulton’s Crab House and now Paddlefish have been operated by Levy Restaurants.
