Hunker down for traditional Norweigian dishes (herring, potato salad, gravlax in mustard sauce, venison stew, and more) in a medieval castle setting.

The Hawaiian Rhythms dance troupe delivers a song-and-fire-dance show. The luau is one of the better meals on the Orlando dinner-show circuit. The menu includes mahi mahi (dolphin fish) in pina colada sauce, sweet-and-sour chicken, smoked pork, vegetables, rice, dessert, and beverages including one cocktail. The show is inside the park, but theme-park admission is not required.

Horses steal this show. Several breeds such as chiseled Arabians and muscular Belgians thunder through a performance including Wild West trick riding, chariot races, a little slapstick comedy, and bareback daredevilry. Horse fans can pet the four-legged stars after the show.

The French-style food doesn’t always live up to the high prices, but the view of Disney’s fireworks is a winner.

Bison rib-eye steak and nut-and-herb crusted lamb chops are a few of the delicious options here. There’s patio dining as well.

Authentic Mexican and TexMex is served in an extravagantly decorated room.
