Disney's Steakhouse 71 Suddenly Shutters Ahead of Labor Day
Disney's Contemporary Resort has unexpectedly closed its Steakhouse 71 restaurant, leaving guests who had reservations on September 6, 2026, without a table. The eatery, which serves American cuisine and is an East Coast version of the permanently closed Steakhouse 55 at Disneyland Hotel, was previously open for breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner. However, as of today, its calendar shows it as closed, with no explanation given by Disney.
A deleted post on the Walt Disney World subreddit from a guest stated that their reservation for September 6 was suddenly canceled. Another commenter shared similar experience. The calendar still indicates that Steakhouse 71 will be open tomorrow, September 7, although reservations are currently unavailable.
