"The most upscale dining spots inside Animal Kingdom are Tiffins and the attached Nomad Lounge, with a menu of things like gobi manchurian and tamarind-braised short rib. Nomad Lounge is walk-in only, and a perfect spot to snack on thai milk bread with coconut-makrut lime sauce and charcuterie. It’s also nice for a full sit-down meal in the dining room to have whole fried fish and short rib—you’ll generally need a reservation, but we’ve had luck with walk-in tables during off-peak months." - carina finn koeppicus, anne cruz

"Created as an ode to Imagineers’ trips around the globe while building Animal Kingdom, the space features art gallery-inspired decor, and the menu could rival those of nationally regarded restaurants. Signature items include a whole-fried sustainable fish served teeth and all." - Amanda Kludt
"At Tiffins Restaurant, which has a five-star safari ambience, the bread service kicks off with naan and lavash with a zingy chutney and other sides—be careful not to fill up too quickly. Appetizers skew Mediterranean, with artisanal cheeses, falafel, and charred octopus. For mains, try the butter chicken, sustainably caught fish (fried whole), or the hearty braised lamb shank. The guava mousse with lemon curd makes for a lovely, light finish." - Terry Ward
