ORLANDO, Fla. -- Walt Disney World has banned young children from its fanciest restaurant.

Children under 10 are no longer welcome at Victoria & Albert's in the Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, the theme park's only restaurant with an AAA five-diamond rating, according to the Orlando Sentinel newspaper.

Disney says it is responding to its guests' desires after surveys showed many diners wanted a more-adult restaurant atmosphere, said Rosemary Rose, Disney's vice president for food, beverage and merchandise operations.

Disney World has 97 other full-service restaurants. She also said that only about three families a month ever brought young children to Victoria & Albert's, which has the highest prices and the most intimate and elegant atmosphere at Disney World.

The menu offers seven-course dinners that can last as long as three hours. Prices start at $125 a person.
