The park has something for every taste and every budget. You can even snack through the day by stopping at the various food carts around the park with hearty snacks and sweet treats. There is a fine/signature dining restaurant called Tiffins and a character buffet called Tusker House. Satu’li Canteen in Pandora is a customizable quick service location unlike anything else.

The Beauty
