Kimonos
Tucked away on the ground floor of the Walt Disney World Swan Hotel, Kimonos is a moody, dimly lit lounge that quietly serves some of the best and most affordable sushi on Disney property. It trades the high-energy theme park aesthetic for a traditional Japanese atmosphere, complete with dark wood accents and elegant kimono decor. While it operates as a laid-back sushi bar during the early evening, it transforms into a lively karaoke hot spot as the night goes on.
Because it’s located at the Swan, Kimonos is just a short walk or boat ride from both EPCOT and Disney’s Hollywood Studios, making it an incredibly convenient escape from the park crowds. It doesn’t require a park ticket, and it rarely demands the same cutthroat dining reservation strategy as in-park table service restaurants.
Whether you’re looking for a relatively inexpensive sushi dinner to cap off an EPCOT day or hoping to belt out pop hits in front of a supportive lounge crowd, Kimonos delivers. It’s one of the few true late-night hangouts at Disney World that balances genuinely good food with genuine entertainment.
Kimonos is the ultimate late-night hidden gem for adults and older teens. Come for the surprisingly affordable, high-quality nigiri; stay for the chaotic joy of late-night karaoke.
