Morimoto Asia, a Pan-Asian restaurant, is proud to announce its 10th anniversary at Disney Springs, in The Landing section of the dining and entertainment district. Over the course of the past 10 years, Morimoto Asia has welcomed millions of guests from around the world.
From sushi to Pan-Asian dishes inspired by Chef Masaharu Morimoto, the restaurant continues to set a standard for dining innovation in Central Florida. The restaurant has earned multiple honors, including the AIA Orlando Design Built Award of Merit, several OpenTable Diners’ Choice Awards, and was named Best Overall Restaurant in Orlando by the Foodster Awards.
“For 10 years, it has been a great pleasure to share my food and vision with guests at Disney Springs,” said Chef Masaharu Morimoto. “This journey continues because of my team’s passion and dedication, and they inspire me every day. I look forward to the next 10 years, bringing new ideas and flavors to everyone who visits.”
New Passport Program
To commemorate this milestone, the restaurant is introducing a year-long “Passport to Morimoto Asia” program.

Guests who collect all 24 unique stamps will be awarded a weekend getaway to Boston, featuring an event at TD Garden, dinner for two, and a complimentary hotel stay.
