Ratatouille follows Remy (Patton Oswalt), a Parisian rat with an unlikely dream of becoming a chef. After teaming up with a shy kitchen worker named Alfredo Linguini (Lou Romano), he secretly cooks his way to acclaim, challenges culinary expectations, and proves that great talent can come from the most unexpected places.
Considering its financial and critical success, it should come as no surprise that Disney has integrated Ratatouille into some of its theme parks. In 2021, Walt Disney World Resort welcomed Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure to the France Pavilion at EPCOT, sending guests on a hare-brained adventure through an oversized kitchen and restaurant via “ratmobile.”
This ride – which recently underwent a brief renovation at EPCOT to remove its unpopular 3D elements amid guest complaints of motion sickness – was inspired by Ratatouille: L’Aventure Totalement Toquée de Rémy, which is also currently closed for the same transformation, plus some additional updates to its queue area.
Located within Walt Disney Studios Park (soon to become Disney Adventure World) at Disneyland Paris, this ride stands out from its Floridian sister by the inclusion of a restaurant at the ride’s exit.
Disney Makes Surprise Decision Regarding ‘Ratatouille’ Restaurant
Just like the ride itself, Bistrot Chez Rémy is designed to make guests feel like they themselves are rat-sized. Perched upon oversized champagne corks, guests can order an array of French dishes (not prepared by an actual rat – at least, not as far as we’re aware).
Until recently, this lineup included ratatouille – unsurprising, considering the fact that A) it’s the film’s name, and B) the climax of the film sees Remy prepare confit byaldi, a variation of ratatouille, for food critic Ego (Peter O’Toole).
However, Disneyland Paris has made the surprising decision to axe the dish from the menu.
An updated menu for Bistrot Chez Rémy on the Disneyland Paris website now features entrées such as grilled steak, roast cod, vegetable blanquette, and roasted chicken supreme. Younger guests can order chicken with fries, bolognese, or a smaller portion of roast cod. Notably missing from these main courses is any mention of ratatouille.

Unsurprisingly, guests are shocked by the move. As one X, formerly known as Twitter, user wrote, “It’s like Universal not selling Butterbeer.”
But ratatouille fans aren’t totally left wanting.
If you read the small print at the bottom of Bistrot Chez Rémy’s menu, the restaurant will still serve ratatouille – a classic French vegetable stew consisting of ingredients such as tomatoes, zucchini, eggplant, bell peppers, and onions – as a side dish upon request.
It’s worth noting that, in our experience, the ratatouille served at Bistrot Chez Rémy isn’t exactly top-tier. In fact, Bistrot Chez Rémy (and Disneyland Paris at large) generally gets a bad rap for the quality of its food.
The restaurant – one of the few table-service eateries located within Walt Disney Studios Park – charges €45 ($53) per head for a starter and a main course, and €55 ($64) for a starter, main course, and dessert. However, it only has a measly 3.9 stars on Google and 3.8 stars on Tripadvisor, where some of the worst reviews have claimed, “I doubt even a rat called Remy would be associated with this horror.” Yikes.
Have you ever visited Bistrot Chez Rémy?
