The Atmosphere

Sanaa is located at the Kidani Village of the Animal Kingdom Lodge. The restaurant resides on the bottom floor, below the resort lobby, and overlooks a field littered with animals that call the African Savannah home.

The Drinks

Like many Disney restaurants, Sanaa has a unique drink menu, both alcoholic & non-alcoholic, but we decided to strictly partake in the adult beverages for this occasion.

Tori got a Margarita & Matt ordered beer. Fortunately Tori held off from diving into the drink before taking a photo!

Safari Amber Draft ($9.00)

Malawi Mango Margarita:
A frozen blend of Tequila, Van der Hum Tangerine Liqueur, Mango Purée, and Freshly Squeezed Lime Juice ($12.00)

The Food

Sanaa offers a wide variety of Indian-Inspired African cuisine, something that neither of us had experience with prior to visiting the restaurant. We always enjoy venturing out of our comfort zones when it comes to dining in Disney.
