So you’re planning to go on a Disney Cruise!
If you’re like us, you’re already wondering about the FOOD available on your cruise. You’re in luck, because we’ve got a full look at the Disney Wish menus for you today!
The Disney Wish first set sail on February 11th, 2022. Disney Cruise Line’s first mega-ship continued some of the traditional Disney Cruise Line dining, but also introduced new concepts. One thing you should know about DCL ships before we dive into menus — Disney introduced the concept of “rotational dining” on cruises.
That means instead of one main dining room, Disney Cruise ships have three different, heavily-themed restaurants, and you rotate through dining at each one on different nights during your cruise. Your servers even move from restaurant to restaurant with you!
The Disney Wish has three all-new restaurants for rotational dining: Arendelle: A Frozen Dining Adventure, Worlds of Marvel, and 1923. Now, let’s dive into those Disney Wish Cruise Ship Menus!
Disney Wish Casual Dining
Marceline Market
Marceline Market is one of the casual dining options on the Wish and is inspired by the town where Walt Disney grew up. This food hall allows guests to enjoy walk-up dining at any (or all!) of the 10 unique food stalls. Each stall is themed to a Disney animated story — Alice in Wonderland and Zootopia being just two examples — and offers a wide variety of freshly prepared cuisines. Guests can choose from American classics, international specialties, comfort foods, seafood, soups and salads, vegetarian and plant-based eats, baked goods, and desserts, all served buffet-style.
Marceline Market is open for breakfast and lunch. Since it is a buffet, the menu will vary, but you can expect to find standards such as bacon, eggs, waffles and omelets at breakfast, and burgers, fries, chicken tenders, and salads at lunch.
Here’s our review of Marceline Market!
Mickey and Friends Festival of Foods
Welcome to Mickey and Friends Festival of Foods, where you can nosh on some eats and treats themed after the Fab Five! The Mickey and Friends Festival of Foods is a selection of several quick service restaurants, including Mickey’s Smokestack Barbecue, Donald’s Cantina, Daisy’s Pizza Pies, Goofy’s Grill, and Sweet Minnie’s Ice Cream. It’s kind of like a food court, and there’s enough food to satisfy a variety of tastes!
Mickey’s Smoketack Barbecue serves BBQ Smoked Brisket Carving, St. Louis Pork, Smoked Chicken, BBQ Smoked Pulled Pork, and Smoked Kielbasa Sausage. Side dishes include Baked Mac & Cheese, Collard Greens, Sweet Potato Fries, and Texas Jalapeño Corn Bread.
Daisy’s Pizza Pies serves up Prosciutto Pizza, Four Cheese Pizza, Pepperoni Sausage Pizza, Margarita Pizza, and a Plant-Based Sausage Pizza.
Donald’s Cantina will scratch that Mexican food itch with build-your-own tacos, burritos, and bowls! You can get your choice of fajita beef, fajita chicken, pork carnitas, rice, beans, or fajita vegetables and a choice of guacamole, salsa, sour cream, queso blanco, or a Mexican cheese blend to top it all off!
And over at Sweet Minnie’s Ice Cream, guests can choose between vanilla, chocolate, and vanilla-chocolate swirl soft-serve.

Disney Wish Rotational Dining
1923
1923 is a family-friendly restaurant inspired by animation, and its name comes from the year the Walt Disney Company was founded. The restaurant is a celebration of the Walt Disney Company, animation, and its Californian heritage. There are two dining rooms, including the Walt Disney room and the Roy Disney room, which reflect classic Hollywood glamour AND Disney whimsy.
The food at 1923 features California flavors, with “sophisticated dishes” designed specifically for families. You’ll find a blend of European, Asian, and South American cuisines, as well as fresh, local ingredients and Napa Valley wines!
Appetizers include dishes such as Porcini Spiced Ahi Tuna and Fennel, Bartlett Pear, and Tatsoi Salad, as well as Burrata Mozzarella Cheese & Prosciutto di Parma, and Kingswell Duck Confit Pastilla. Soup offerings are aPulled Guinea Hen Corn Chowder and Roasted Roma Tomato Soup, along with a bread service of Fig and Olive Bread.
Entrees includeTortiglioni Pasta, Italian Flat Parsley and Rosemary-Crusted Rack of Lamb, and a Seared Verlasso Salmon Filet. For dessert, you can try theChurros Calientes, a Burbank Blueberry-Lemon Bavarian Cream, or a Flourless Orange Almond Cake.
Here’s our review of 1923!
Arendelle: A Frozen Dining Adventure
At Arendelle: A Frozen Dining Adventure, you get to dine while celebrating the engagement of Anna and Kristoff (right after the events in Frozen 2). The restaurant is designed to look like a theater-in-the-round, with a center stage and dining tables placed around the stage.
Anna and Kristoff make their way around the tables, sporting some special party looks, and there is entertainment throughout the meal! The menu at this spot features Nordic-influenced cuisine and combinations of traditional Nordic flavors along with more modern dishes.
There’s a variety of appetizers including one with a sampling of fish, scallops, a ham tart, and more. You’ll also find salads and soups. There are a number of entrees to pick from, including the pork tenderloin, sea bass, and more. Queen Anna would not allow dessert to be skipped (of course!), so there are a few different sweet treats to try, including a chocolate bar!
Here’s our Arendelle review!
Worlds of Marvel
At Worlds of Marvel, you’ll experience something called “Avengers: Quantum Encounter.” The story behind Quantum Encounter is that Ant-Man and The Wasp are going on their first speaking engagement for the Avengers and are hosting a presentation of some super powerful Super Hero technology. Blue lights and chrome are everywhere the eye can see, and it does feel like you’re in a super high-tech restaurant!
The menu at Worlds of Marvel is inspired by some of the cuisines from your favorite super hero films. There are dishes that take inspiration from “African Wakanda, Eastern European Sokovia” and even New York.
For the appetizers, you’ll find salmon, bao buns, and more — many of these have a seafood component to them. There are also salads and soups if you’d prefer to head in that direction! For the entrees, there are a few options, including a Berbere Spiced Pork Chop, Chicken Schnitzel, and pasta. Last but not least — dessert! There’s a Subatomic Sticky Date Pudding, Key Lime Pie, and more.
Here’s our review of Worlds of Marvel!
Specialty Dining
Palo Steakhouse
Palo Steakhouse is an adults-only steakhouse inspired by Cogsworth the clock from Beauty and Beast. The restaurant uses a palette of woods, shining metals, and clock-like details to immerse you in an environment that reminds you of an ornate clock. One important thing to know about Palo is that it is a premium restaurant — there will be an upcharge to dine here.
The menu includes both Italian fare and modern steakhouse dining. Guests dining at Palo can choose from either a pre fixe menu or a la carte. The pre-fixe menu is $45 per guest, and includes 4 courses — antipasta (appetizer), insalata (salad), il secondo (entrée), and dolce (dessert). The prix fixe menu allows you to choose from options like calamari, pan-seared salmon, beef tenderloin, and tiramisu. The a la carte menu has a wider selection available, like soft potato gnocchi, wagyu beef, various pizzas, veal, and more.
The dessert menu also has quite a selection to choose from, like souffles, cakes, and a variety of gelatos.

Enchante
Enchanté is an adult-exclusive restaurant onboard the Disney Wish that is themed after Beauty and the Beast. It takes inspiration from Lumière, the candelabra from the movie. It is one of the Wish’s most elegant dining experiences and even features a gourmet menu by three-Michelin-starred Chef Arnaud Lallement. The color scheme and decor of the entire space (including that lounge space) really meshes Lumière, Beauty and the Beast, and the sea together, with golds, blues, and tans weaved throughout the seating, tables, and more.
Keep in mind that reservations for Enchanté are required and are subject to availability. While many dining experiences on the Disney Cruise are included in the cost of your trip, this adults-only experience is an additional charge.
The standard dinner here is meant to be a “progressive” experience. It starts with some time at the lounge, where you are given a glass of Champagne and a Chef’s choice amuse bouche (basically a small appetizer bite).
At Enchanté, you have 3 different menus to choose from.
First, there is something called the “Collection” which is priced at $195. This is a 9-course meal that is meant to combine new dishes with some signature ones. It’s sort-of a Chef’s Table menu where the team chooses what to give you. And if you want to add on the champagne selection, it’s $140 per person.
There is also a “Passion” selection which is $125 per person. This is a 5 course meal featuring the items specifically listed there. This menu option features tomatoes, wild halibut, and more. There is also a wine experience that can be added for $115 per person.
And finally, you can also grab some menu items a la carte, including caviar and Maine lobster.

Ken says
Unfortunately, I did not enjoy any of the dining offerings on the Wish, and my voyage in Oct. 2022 was my 11th DCL experience. The Marceline Market was a poor substitute from Cabana’s pre-pandemic. The on deck BBQ was not great, not everyone can eat BBQ. There were no sandwiches, tuna, salads, light wraps, fruit salad or other lighter fare items to choose from. The Hot Dogs were poor, with toppings limited to ketchup and mustard. No chili, kraut, relish…very poor. Disney could have very easily made this stop “The Best Dogs on the 7 Seas”, but they didn’t. A burger is a burger a pizza or a taco just does not make it for me. As for the rotational dining experience, it was the worst ever across all of the other 4 ships. Marvel was terrible amounting to noise on a tv during dinner. The food was not interesting or unique or inspired, very disappointing vs. the Artist’s Pallet on the Fantasy. The 1921 dining was nothing more than a steak dinner almost anywhere. No show except looking at the walls. As for the Frozen dining experience, it was terrible if you had no exposure to the Frozen back story. A huge dining room with a center stage that almost no one could hear the performers speak. If you were not sitting ringside, the whole entertainment sequence was terrible. My wife and I will never travel on the Wish again as the dining and other experiences on board will cause us to either steer away from DCL towards other lines, or return to the older ships. One can only hope that the next ship of the Wish size will be better imagined.
Katherine Chavera says
I agree with Ken and I was not impressed with any of the restaurants or menus on WISH. I had scallops every night for lack of anything else. I did enjoy the show at Arendelle. We are sailing again but do not plan on eating at any of the restaurants and will instead use room service or Marceline Market and put it in the fridge for dinner!
