Morimoto Asia • Orlando

TV’s Iron Chef Morimoto proudly showcases his first pan-Asian restaurant at Morimoto Asia, in Disney Springs. The accomplished chef’s signature twist can be savored in dishes that include Mongolian Filet Mignon and Buri-Bop, a Korean style yellowtail rice bowl served in a hot clay pot. 

The centerpiece of the restaurant’s 36-foot high, two-story interior is a glass encased exhibition kitchen where traditional creations like Peking duck and dim sum are prepared and elegantly presented table side. The “Omakase Experience” is an unforgettable 5 to 7 course dining delight with the freshest fish from Japan. The Forbidden Lounge offers appetizers and signature cocktails until 1 a.m.
