Capa

By Melissa — lives fifteen minutes from Walt Disney World and is in the parks most weeks

Who that is

Writer and presenter, Whistle While You Work

Melissa moved to Celebration, Florida, and stopped treating Disney as a once-a-year sprint. She is in the parks most weeks, films what she finds, and writes the pages here from that — plus the research it takes to check it. Her position, in her own words: Disney does not have to be perfect to be magical, and the goal was never to do everything.

The short answer

The Spanish steakhouse on the 17th floor of the Four Seasons Resort Orlando, with a terrace view of the Magic Kingdom fireworks. Nine grill plates average $88.78; tapas start at $6. It lost its Michelin star in the 2026 Florida guide after four straight years and is now Michelin-recommended. No Disney dining plan.

Is it worth the money?

For a special dinner with the fireworks, yes. It is one of the best settings at Walt Disney World, and the tapas let you have it without the steak prices.

The Michelin star is gone. Capa held one Michelin star for four consecutive years to 2025, according to the Four Seasons' own press release that April. Orlando Weekly reported on 28 May 2026 that Capa lost its star in the 2026 Florida guide. The resort's page body now says "Michelin-recommended", though its page title still reads "Michelin Star Restaurant". Victoria & Albert's kept its star the same year.

The view is the point. The 17th-floor terrace looks over Magic Kingdom, and the Four Seasons says it is where to watch the fireworks. Book around the fireworks time.

It does not take the Disney dining plan. Disney's own page marks it "Dining Plan Meals Not Accepted". The Four Seasons is not a Disney-owned hotel.

Getting there takes planning. The Four Seasons sits in Golden Oak and runs its own shuttle to the parks for hotel guests, per Disney's planDisney panel. If you are not staying there, budget for a car or a rideshare each way.

Who it’s right for

Couples and adults marking an occasion. Anyone who wants the fireworks from a terrace rather than a crowd. Steak lovers with a budget. Vegetarians, who get a real main and many marked sides.

Who it’s wrong for

Anyone on a Disney dining plan. Anyone not staying at the Four Seasons without a car or rideshare budget. Anyone who booked because of a Michelin star that is no longer there.

What is actually good

Read from Disney's own menu for Capa on 12 September 2026.

Nine grill plates, $60 to $145, averaging $88.78. An 8oz Ibérico pluma from Extremadura is $60, and a 12oz prime New York strip $65. A 1.5lb Maine lobster and a 14oz New Zealand lamb rack are $68 each, an 8oz prime filet $72, and a 16oz 40-day wet-aged bone-in ribeye $91. At the top are a 12oz bone-in filet at $110, a 12oz Platinum X Wagyu Delmonico at $120, and a 32oz prime porterhouse at $145. A5 Miyazaki wagyu is $32 an ounce with a three-ounce minimum, or $225 as a wagyu flight with a $95 wine pairing.

Four entrées from the kitchen, $36 to $55: arroz sofrito (vegetarian) at $36, pollo asado at $38, black cod a la vizcaína at $42, and a seafood paella at $55.

Ten tapas, $6 to $18 — olives at $6, marcona almonds and olive bread at $7, pan con tomate from $9, jamón croquetas $12. Bacon-wrapped dates and pan con tomate with Manchego are $13, pork belly $16, and gambas and pan con tomate with jamón de bellota $18. A board of jamón ibérico de bellota is $42. Four raciones — octopus, cauliflower, patatas bravas, peppers — are $12 to $20. Vegetable sides are $14 to $16, and sauces $6 each.

The raw bar goes a long way up. Oysters are $24 a half-dozen, and a mariscada platter $76 or $120. Petrossian caviar runs from $255 to $435 for 30g.

Disney's menu listing has errors. One glass of Priorat is printed at $2.00. The Maine lobster is labelled "Spain (Extremadura, Spain)" — a copy-paste from the Ibérico pluma above it. Neither is the real price or origin.

Disney bands it $$$$, "over $60 per adult" — accurate, for once.

Portions

Steakhouse portions for the grill — the steak comes with little on the plate, and sides are $14 to $16. The tapas and raciones are small and meant to be shared, and they are the better way to eat here if the budget is anything short of generous.

Allergies and dietary needs

Better than most steakhouses for vegetarians. The arroz sofrito at $36 is a vegetarian main, and the menu marks several tapas, raciones and all the vegetable sides as vegan or vegetarian: olives, almonds, pan con tomate, cauliflower, patatas bravas, corn, mushrooms, eggplant, potato purée and broccoli. The menu also marks gluten-free items throughout, including every grill plate.

Common questions

Does Capa still have a Michelin star?
No. Capa held one star for four consecutive years to 2025, but Orlando Weekly reported on 28 May 2026 that it lost the star in the 2026 Michelin Guide Florida. The Four Seasons now describes it as Michelin-recommended.
How much is Capa at the Four Seasons?
Nine grill plates ran $60 to $145 on Disney's own menu in September 2026, averaging $88.78. Kitchen entrées are $36 to $55, tapas $6 to $18, and sides $14 to $16.
Can you see the fireworks from Capa?
Yes. The Four Seasons says Capa's 17th-floor terrace has spectacular views of the Magic Kingdom fireworks. Time the reservation around them.
Does Capa take the Disney Dining Plan?
No. Disney's own page marks it "Dining Plan Meals Not Accepted". The Four Seasons is not a Disney-owned hotel.
