Good news for fans of dining alongside the fish: Coral Reef Restaurant at EPCOT is set to reopen on September 29, a full month ahead of the November 4 date that had been previously reported.

The restaurant, known for its floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Living Seas aquarium, has been closed for a stretch that left many EPCOT regulars missing one of the park's most atmospheric dining experiences.

As of this writing, no menu changes have been announced, so guests can expect the same seafood-focused offerings they're familiar with when the doors swing back open.

If you've been holding off on booking an EPCOT trip until Coral Reef was back in the mix, the end of September just became a lot more appealing. Reservations through Disney's dining system are the best way to secure a table once availability opens up.
