DINING AT EVERY RESTAURANT IN EPCOT'S WORLD SHOWCASE: Teppan Edo | Japanese Hibachi

I'm dining at every restaurant in Epcot's World Showcase and today we're checking out Teppan Edo. This hibachi restaurant is located in the Japan pavilion and is incorporating a fun Disney twist on this style of Japanese cooking.

Omg that’s me🙋🏽‍♀️ I made that bracelet! I’m so glad you love it!

[@ForTheLoveOfThemeParksVlogs]

Thank you so much for the bracelet!! I’ll be rocking it in my new videos 🙏🙏

[@Karen_esque]

I was definitely yelling at my screen when you couldn't figure out the Ramune bottle cap! 🤣 I love those bottles. I always get the lychee flavor at H-Mart.

[@AngieMagz]

I love a family reunion ❤

[@wesleylowe5215]

That's my wife and I on the right side! We didn't catch your name in the restaurant. A friend saw us and sent us the link. We did opt for the filet upgrade and it was delicious. Although, since they just bumped the price from $10 to $18, we will probably just stick with the strip steak next time. We do eat here regularly and every chef is different. Some much better than others. We still enjoy the experience and it is one of our favorites. We may take up your advice and try Kobe. There is one right in front of our resort.

[@cindymitcheltree7961]

I agree with your review. If you’re paying that much you shouldn’t have to add something to your food to make it taste better. It was great seeing you and your brother reunited! Good, honest review. Thanks, Kristen

[@tiarasandtomorrowland]

I love Teppan Edo! My husband & I had bridal portraits taken in there many moons ago ❤

[@brookepedersen8377]

Thanks for always being honest! That’s why I love watching your videos.

[@TheDaniMarie0403]

Went there in January and the best part was that my 4 yr old niece fell asleep during the chef cooking so i got to eat all her food too 😂

[@ellisejo]

You’re such a divisive vlogger/critic. My BF says you’re overly critical and I am team Kristen 100%. There are so many Disney vloggers who just love everything because it probably gets better clout from Disney, but this is the real hot take. You’re spot on almost all of the time. You love Disney and food BUT you keep it real that the food is expensive and Disney should come with HIGH expectations and then when they’re not met even compared to benihana it’s a let down. This is the content that needs to be seen because if I’m going to spend $50 (plus Canadian exchange) on a meal I want to be IMPRESSED

[@ChickenPerm]

Hibachi & Hi-Chews....2 things you can get in any town across the country, funny how it turned out this way

[@Marnie-hi2ur]

We have a great hibachi place near me and for less than what you paid we get soup, shrimp flambé, filet mignon, white rice, fried is extra but what I get, veggies, and noodles. So good and plenty of food to take home some. Also some really fun entertainment! I would have also been a little disappointed by your meal!

[@swnagas2468]

Your review is spot on.

[@Marie_Elaine]

This was such a helpful review!

[@ParkertonsAdventures]

Great vlog would love to experience something like this, it just looks amazing and a great atmosphere

[@emma.plays.roblox.24]

im going the end of may love your videos they are so helpful

[@tommywalker742]

Great video love hibachi!!!

[@mguevara25]

thanks for your video. It was helpful.🎉

[@ashleylane7774]

One and done for us! I agree with everything you said.

[@GoofyGuy-WDW]

Thanks for saving us soooo much time and money. No fried rice as a start would be a deal killer for us. Throw in lousy portions and crazy “Disney Premium Pricing” (Ryan has to be full of it about real hibachi restaurants)😂

[@desireamojica626]

I am looking forward to trying this out in August when I go. Super excited to try the chicken. glad we can more rice as i like that better than noodles but still excited for it. Thank you for your honest review. I love Hibachi also, so will be quite interesting how Disney does it.

[@Wanderlust1984]

YSK…Teppanyaki =\= Hibachi. There is a difference and Teppan Edo is not a Hibachi cooking style restaurant. Teppan Edo is a Teppanyaki cooking style restaurant. 😅 Love your videos!! ❤❤❤

[@RubySlippers03]

Totally agree with your review of Teppan Edo. I feel the portions are WAY too small for the price and you will be hungry later. We have hibachi close to home and get 2-3 times what Disney serves guests. Thanks for confirming our assessment.

[@Marylynnsauro]

My nieces love that soda. The marble inside made me nervous!

[@elainemaino8499]

we always get these sodas at a Japanese restaurant in Normandy Beach NJ. just something little fun for the kids.

[@lp19746]

We just went to Auji Sushi in winter garden shopping center for Hibatchi, and it was way more food and so good. It's also cheaper and seasoned 😆

[@nekonoai]

I was over here yelling at the screen telling you how to open that ramune. LOL Oh and ramune is 1.50 everywhere else except Disney, of course. LOL They're like 100 yen in Japan. I do love the show at Teppan Edo. :D

[@Nitaseyboldsault161]

Ohhhh yum looks great gonna go in a week if do Yum

[@leannec-c8456]

All the restraunts should have two options. Reg and expedited. It makes sense for APs who go all the time to want to take time and have more of a dining experience, while people like me who only get to FL every few years want to be in and out within an hour to get back to the parks/rides.

[@Jefferson196]

I think I first saw ya'll eating with Mr. Marrow but Crazy Disney Lady mentioned your channel typed it in and there ya are...just what I like Eating my way through Disney World is what me and the fam like to do.

[@elizabethumrawsingh6049]

No fry rice..deal breaker Kristen l love your videos..wish l can eat like yoy

[@MonkeyMonkey.]

The Chef humming "The Chicken Dance" when putting the chicken on the hot grill! lol Every visit of ours to Teppan Edo I found the flavor very lacking. I had only gone because my daughter liked the hibachi experience. I never had the steak (I don't eat red meat), but have had both, the chicken and shrimp, and wasn't a fan of neither. Now that my daughter is grown, I choose where I eat based on what tastes good to me. I haven't been to Teppan Edo in a few years now, and based on your review, it hasn't changed, so I don't see a trip there in my near future. I got the Frozen Wafer on my "must try" list for our trip next month.

[@ChelsyLewandowski]

The drink with the ball in it was always my go to take home! Would get four or five and wrap them the best I could praying they made it in one piece in the suitcase lol. Forgot about them!

[@scrimscrum]

I think the last person I would expect to be in a Disney vlog is Elena Delle Donne lmao

[@theresawolski3255]

Please please please make sure you two film a video and post it when you both go to KOBE. I would love to see what Ryan thinks of it.

[@sharonsmith9250]

This is a must eat for me and my son

[@dolewhipsandmickeybars4921]

Its one of our favorite restaurants but to each their own.

[@giabarletta5929]

Ooof that’s expensive for hibachi!! But I know it’s Disney. The one we go to (I’m in NY near Manhattan) it’s so so good and flavorful and I can get a filet mignon / shrimp combo for $37!! Plus I get soup with that in addition to all the stuff that place serves. AND we get hibachi fried rice! But the number 1 reason I don’t go there is bc I have one at home I love so it’s not a special unique experience but also bc usually it DOES take up a lot of time and when I’m in the parks, I don’t want my dinner to take up too much of my park time.

[@librarylady1715]

Ramune you can get lots of different flavors. Look at an Asian store or Japanese market. Hi Chew is tasty. My favorite is peach and green apple. I’ve never been to Hibachi that is “the best ever”, it always seems to be just for the fun and experience. Glad you enjoyed your sweet treats! Thanks for these vlogs!

[@algernon5776]

Benniha in Orlando for lunch is the best deal. Ton of food for under $30. Disney is straight up food crime.

[@judymarlow5620]

We have eaten there before and definitely prefer Kobe. I always get the filet and scallops ( at Kobe) and we always bring home a large container of noodles and vegies for the next day. Loving this series Kristin,we did try the new little taco place you recommended, got the pork street tacos and will be going back to try a couple other things 🤗🥰

[@JUNIORPHX]

I did this on my last day of my trip, two weeks ago. I really enjoyed d it. I have always wanted to do a Habachi with family but they are under the impression that is extremely expensive. Our Habachi “Chef” seemed new lol, she was having trouble doing all the tricks 🤣 but she was very nice

[@goldenhermit]

So what you’re saying is…the locally owned hibachi restaurant here in TN is better than the Disney one in Epcot. Good to know. The one here even does the oil Mickey. I always have enough leftovers to get 2 more meals from the one here too. Also, I buy Hi-Chew from target and Amazon all the time if anyone wants to try it without going to Epcot. That ice cream thing looks good though. I hope I get to try it someday.

[@Liz-np3jb]

We last went to Teppan Edo five years ago, and we've never been back. It's just not that great. Like you said, there are much better options outside of Disney.

[@gregghauck7971]

Had the chicken there once and it was very chewy. Good choice on the steak. I think Kobe is a better hibachi experience and better food. Great video!

[@ChristyJones-MSOFFICE]

Just looked in up Wagyu stands for Japanese Cattle and it has something to do with the way they are fed and the marbling of the fat. Very interesting.

[@paulavincent2520]

I think, by just looking at your portion size, it was not worth it. The Japan gift shop treats look interesting . Always like to see you and Ryan vlogging together.

[@kirstiebelle]

Your review is right on the money! My family felt the same when we ate there 2 years ago. Just meh. Thanks as always for your content!!

[@greggregg4852]

NO KOOL-AID HERE! Good job! 😃

[@lindadeutsch5961]

Kristen, I am glad it was under seasoned so I would be able to add soy sauce etc..Most food is so salty at Disney. I would rather have just enough to eat because we are staying on property and the refrigerators are not cold enough for leftovers

[@jennifergriffin8997]

Where is the Kobe video? Can't wait to see it! Also you should go to Black Angus, our fav place!

[@stephaniedeal6491]

Hi Chew mango is the best!!!

[@wernerproductions8803]

If your ever in the Chicago aria you should go to the best hibachi restaurant in at least America Domo 77. It's in Aurora near the Fox Valley Mall.

[@abeamzn1898]

I agree about the seasoning. You should not need to season. Disney portions are usually small. Very rare to have leftovers.

[@Altrok90Point5HD2]

There is another teppanyaki on Disney property: Benihana (yes!) at the Hilton across from Disney Springs. Go there, and take us with you!

[@richiemcginnis9501]

True A5 Wagyu is the highest quality fresh cut of meat you will ever have, I'm going to say you missed out haha

[@JUNIORPHX]

I agree the portions were very small for what you pay. I left somewhat kind of hungry 😂

[@Miche353]

I enjoyed it when we went years ago , probably 15 years. I ordered exact same thing you did. I know my husband was starving afterwards. Your chef didn’t build Olaf or Mickey from the onions which I have seen others post. The show is best part of Hibachi, and it’s usually a long meal. Shocked you were there only an hour. You must have been excited to see a WNBA player since we know you love basketball 🏀

[@chrisevans6471]

Ryan is right the steak is underseasoned. That’s because they don’t season it. Only a little salt so you use the dipping sauces.

[@Nitaseyboldsault161]

Best Japanese grill I've ever had is in Jacksonville fl it's called Sakura

[@mac007230]

Ramune: you got it, but you remove the plunger T out of the top cap. Press down… and then when you go to drink make sure the dimples (where the marble falls into) are toward your body as they are meant to catch the marble as you drink so it doesn’t roll back into the opening and stop the flow.

[@cynthiagutierrez2877]

There's no excuse for them not giving larger noodle portions, as noodles are really inexpensive, it would really help fill up the plate and customers wouldn't feel the portion was too small. What a bummer. I do think the portion shouldn't be big enough to have left overs, because who wants to carry left overs around with them in a theme park. But it should have been bigger than what you got for sure. And under-seasoned too??? Noooo. I wonder if the sushi is good at least.

[@nicolez1163]

I felt like the noodle portion was really small so I asked for a second helping and they charged us a little bit extra but I love noodles so it was worth it

[@shannonchampion6690]

I agree with you 100% on this review. I have eaten at Teppan Edo only once, but the one thing that sticks out for me is the white rice they give you. For a meal that was so expensive and such small portion sizes, at least give me fried rice and season it well. Not my favorite and I’ll always skip this place for that reason.

[@merissamanke2212]

KOBES !!!!!

[@juanitajones6900]

You're at a Disney theme park restaurant, not a regular restaurant. I'm not surprised that you had paid more than expected. This is why I rarely, if ever, attend dine-in restaurants at a theme park. I'm surprised that you didn't realize this.

[@lisawhipple8929]

❤❤❤

[@bobbysteurer8631]

I feel like your brother looks so familiar, but I can’t place it. If you told me he was in The Acacia Strain at some point, I’d believe it, but that can’t be it. Or heck, maybe it can.

[@ForTheLoveOfThemeParksVlogs]

In a past life being in that band would have been a dream of mine! But I took the more PG route and became a disney vlogger 😂 I’m sure it may have been the Cthulhu tattoo or maybe my wormwood bird on my leg that made you think of it! Nonetheless, no I was not in that band 😅

[@bobbysteurer8631]

@@ForTheLoveOfThemeParksVlogs Ha! I didn’t notice the Wormwood bird, but cool! I figured TAS was a long shot. The chuggy riffs to Disney pipeline is real.

[@allisonnorfolk5188]

I love how the kid in blue across from you was 100% not impressed by any of the proceedings. You go, teen who would rather be at Universal than with his family at Disney. You'll discover Disney nostalgia again as an adult. I enjoyed Teppan Edo the times I've been there. The staff are very nice and tolerate my attempts to communicate in my very limited Japanese with good grace. But it is very pricey for what you get and if you want an experience unique to the Disney theme parks then look elsewhere.

[@Nitaseyboldsault161]

Love their treats their chocolate is amazing there's a box of chocolate squares that melt in your mouth Like little square bites of fudge do good

[@theresawolski3255]

Kristen, was there any mushroom in any of the food?? We have mushroom allergies. Please let us know.

[@wrightdownmainstreet]

I don’t believe so. There was an option to add a side of mushrooms though. Always check with your serve at Disney to be extra safe!

[@mandapleazee]

Hahaha oh shit Della Donne at WDW

[@kimberlykrach4943]

I agree you didn’t get that much food

[@starfire1963sn]

Maybe they hold the time to an hour because most people don't want to waste park time on food. Just a thought...

[@Automage45]

I love your channel I just found you again! You stopped showing up on my feed 😞 glad your still making content 😃I got some catching up to do

[@joysharpe1500]

Habachhi is great, but I wouldn't pay those prices for what you got.

[@SimbaOne1]

Go to a local Asian market. That's where all the fun stuff is.

[@SimbaOne1]

@@rebeccaondrusek7541 I'm talking to Kristen who is a local and mainly in regards to the stuff she can't find like the mango peelable gummies or doesn't want to carry around like the matcha ice cream.

[@nicoleescobedo6866]

I thought the portion size was perfect. I guess it’s your American stomach that always needs a lot of food.

[@JBLockhartTx]

IT’S NOT HIBACHI!! It’s Teppanyaki

[@stephaniel1981]

I swear I have seen better shows from the chefs at that resturant that did a lot more with the dinners. Was that lunch time or actual dinner?

[@vafoot]

What can you say.... Disney prices...😢

[@sensationalinsecondary678]

Except for Benihana lol. They are just as expensive if not more and the food is definitely not that good. Don't waste your time get to a hole in the wall type of place.

[@tomlee252]

the ramune soda is around $3 at an Asian store, the plastic cap has a plastic part that you detach and use as the plunger to open, I generally get the original, your also paying for the show that comes with the meal, that restaurant is a knock off of Benihana's, which is half the price, everything at Disney is O.P., just a query, whose older, you or your brother

[@SuzanneA618]

So one of my toxic traits is I hate hibachi 😢🤦🏻‍♀️😆 I know, so lame! I like the food, just hate the fanfare and hate having food thrown at me. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I also did not like this restaurant, flavors were not good 👎🏼 So that mochi in the store is soooo good! I buy a different flavor every time 🎉

[@HannahBirzes]

Same!! It gives me anxiety like just let me eattt

[@large42]

We don't like it. You get miso and maybe a few shrimp/tempura before the main course at most Hibachi restaurants. The chefs do the same things over and over there. Twice was enough. Never again.

[@GMastrob1]

I've never seen such BORING table mates....they look like they're at a funeral
