The Boathouse opens at Downtown Disney

Downtown Disney gained another venue earlier today as “The Boathouse” opened.

The restaurant purports to be an upscale, waterfront restaurant featuring steaks, chops, seafood and a raw bar. The BOATHOUSE aims to take diners back to the 30s, 40s and 50s with live music and floating artwork – Captain-piloted Italian water taxis and Amphicars.

Guests can tour the Downtown Disney, soon to be renamed Disney Springs, waterfront on a 20-minute tour in an Amphicars ($100 for up to 3 people). For a more romantic option, guests can climb aboard The Venezia, a 40-foot wooden Italian water taxi or the 1800s antique steamboat Lady Rose; both offer champagne toasts and chocolate-covered strawberries.

The restaurant can seat 600 guests – 400 inside and 200 outside – but all the dining rooms have waterfront views.  There are 3 bars, each with a distinct nautical theme.

Hours are 11am-2am daily.  For reservations, stop by the restaurant or call 407-939-BOAT (2628).
