/* History */
Be Our Guest Restaurant is a counter/table service restaurant found in [[New Fantasyland]].
==History==
Be Our Guest Restaurant was initially announced at the D23 Expo in 2009 as one of the focal points of the Fantasyland Expansion <ref> http://progresscityusa.com/2009/09/13/d23-day-three/ </ref>. At the Expo, guests were told that Be Our Guest Restaurant would take place inside the Beast's castle Castle and that it would allow guests to eat in the Ballroom ballroom that is shown in film "Beauty and the Beast". Eventually however information came out that guests would be able to eat in one of the three dining rooms: the Rose Gallery, the Ballroom, and the West Wing. <ref> http://modernmouseradio.com/tag/be-our-guest-restaurant/ </ref>
Be Our Guest Restaurant eventually opened to guests for a soft opening on November 19, 2012, before having its grand opening on December 6 <ref> http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2012/08/new-fantasyland-grand-opening-set-for-december-6-at-magic-kingdom-park-at-walt-disney-world-resort/ </ref>. At the time Be Our Guest Restaurant opened to guests, dinner offered table service dining, while lunch was counter service. Although still considered a counter service meal, on February 25, 2015 Be Our Guest Restaurant began accepting reservations for lunch <ref> http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2015/02/coming-soon-lunch-reservations-at-be-our-guest-restaurant/ </ref>. From March 20, 2015 until June 18, 2015 Be Our Guest Restaurant tested offering breakfast from 8-10 am <ref> http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2015/03/new-breakfast-starts-march-20-at-be-our-guest-restaurant-in-the-magic-kingdom-at-walt-disney-world-resort/ </ref>.

==Description==
For lunch, guests enter Be Our Guest Restaurant through a hallway lined with suits of armor. Here, they can hear quite whispering coming from the walls. After checking in, guests are given an “enchanted rose” and told to select any open table <ref> http://www.insidethemagic.net/2012/11/closer-look-be-our-guest-restaurant-details-served-up-by-imagineer-and-chef-as-walt-disney-world-opens-new-fantasyland/ </ref>. Guests are also given the option of ordering their meals on the touch screen; if they have not previously ordered using the My Disney Experience App (guests have the ability to order their meals up to 30 days before their visit). If guests are visiting for dinner, they enter the restaurant and go directly into the Ballroom <ref> http://www.disneyfoodblog.com/be-our-guest-restaurant/ </ref>.
