Satu’li Canteen Dining Review

In Pandora at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Satu’li Canteen offers some of the most unique offerings of any restaurant in the Disney World Parks. From Cheeseburger Pods to the customizable bowls to the unique and beautiful desserts, Satu’li is a feast for the senses and not just your tastebuds! Satu’li Canteen is one quick service credit on the Disney Dining Plans!

Satu’li Canteen is themed to match Pandora and really is beautiful. It reflects Na’vi culture with a little bit of human contrast thrown in. When you go in, you will either be given a menu or can grab one to take a look at while you wait. There is also a large menu board in the ordering area that lists all of the choices for meals.

Picky Eaters And Satu’li Canteen

My kids like to eat, but they are sometimes a little bit picky. When at Disney World we tend to stick to things like chicken strips, cheeseburgers, and hot dogs. So I was a little bit nervous about taking them to Satu’li Canteen. However, we discovered that there was something that each of them loved and I would be ready to take them again in a heartbeat.

Satu’li Canteen Offerings

At the Canteen, our favorite offering was the “Create Your Own Bowl.” These bowls offer you a choice of a base, a protein, and a sauce of your choice. When ordering we always like to ask Cast Members for recommendations because I am such a wimp and don’t like spicy food. (Don’t be afraid to ask Cast Members for advice when ordering!) The bowls also come in Kid sizes and are still customizable.

We decided to try a little bit of everything, so we ended up getting a Chili-Garlic Shrimp bowl, a Combination Beef & Wood Grilled Chicken bowl, a Beef only bowl, a chicken only bowl, and a Chili-Spiced Crispy Fried Tofu Bowl. We chose a variety of bases including noodles, rice and black beams, red and sweet potato hash, and hearty salad. The sauce choices included cream herb, charred green onion vinaigrette, and black bean vinaigrette (just a heads up…this one was a little bit spicy but very tasty).

We shared between ourselves and the portion sizes were very generous! The kids size really was a decent sized meal that I could have eaten and been very happy with.

Kids Menu

There are some cool kids menu options too. The cheeseburger stuffed pod was interesting and actually incorporated cheeseburger flavors including cheese and pickles. The “Teylu” hotdog was also pretty tasty and was basically a regular hot dog wrapped in bread dough. There is also a quesadilla option, but we didn’t get to sample it this trip. All of the kids meals are served with vegetable chips which I personally really loved!

Satu’li Canteen Desserts

After our meal, we decided to order both of the featured desserts – or Ber’ri in the Na’vi language: the blueberry cream cheese mousse and the chocolate cake. While the chocolate cake incorporated some neat dessert techniques and had a good flavor, the runaway favorite was the blueberry cream cheese mousse was definitely the winner. We actually went back and got another to share so that we could have some more!

Mobile Order

One of the best parts about Satu’li Canteen is the ability to Mobile Order in the park! We didn’t Mobile Order on our first trip through since we wanted to sample a little bit of everything and get Cast Member recommendations. when we wanted more dessert I used the Mobile Order so I could skip the line! Never miss an opportunity to Mobile Order when you can; it’s such a life-saver!

A Must Do For Our Family

Overall, Satu’li Canteen is a must-do for us on future Animal Kingdom visits. We were all super satisfied with our meals and agreed that we probably should have gone back again before the end of our last Disney World visit. From our family to yours: make sure and make time for Satu’li Canteen!
