Les Chefs de France, French restaurant in Epcot, Bay Lake, US
Les Chefs de France is a French restaurant in Epcot that serves traditional French dishes in a building designed to look like early 1900s Parisian neighborhood bistros. The dining spaces feature classic French architectural details and furnishings that transport guests into an authentic Parisian dining room.
The restaurant opened on 1 October 1982 under the guidance of three renowned French chefs: Roger Vergé, Gaston Lenôtre, and Paul Bocuse. This collaboration between celebrated French culinary experts shaped its character from the beginning.
The restaurant reflects French dining culture, where meals are served in multiple courses over extended time periods. Visitors experience the continental European approach to eating, which is generously paced and leisurely.
The restaurant is fully wheelchair accessible throughout its dining areas. Advance reservations can be made up to 60 days in advance, which is recommended especially during busy travel periods.
An electronic Remy character from the film Ratatouille appears between tables to interact with dining guests. This figure was introduced in 2009 and has become a delightful surprise for younger visitors.
