July 31 – Epcot’s Via Napoli restaurant open for special event

[DoingFlorida News]

The new Via Napoli restaurant in Epcot’s Italy pavilion is due to open next month for walk up guests only as there are no reservations available before September 10th. Last night as Epcot closed the restaurant was lit up and busy but not for guests. Construction walls still remain in place but staff and some diners could be clearly seen inside the fully lit restaurant at around 9.30pm. Guests at the park were still kept away from the area with cast members on duty at the entrance behind “Special Event" signs. The soft opening date is still scheduled for August 5th.
