Lots of Disney World restaurants have started to reopen recently.
Since many restaurants have been closed for a while now, they have had plenty of time to redo their menus and because of that, new food items are coming out ALL over the place! ABC Commissary did a complete reboot of their menu so of course we had to try it out when they opened!
ABC Commissary officially opened on October 8th with several new menu items! We were not too impressed with this quick-service restaurant before the park-closures, however we were VERY excited to try this new menu!
First up, we tried the Pork Carnitas Tacos! This new item contains pork carnitas on flour tortillas and is topped with salsa verde, pickled onion, and radish. Mexican rice and black beans topped with queso fresco, come on the side.
The tacos were GREAT! The pork was cooked to perfection and was very flavorful on its own. At first we did not pick up any heat from the taco, but by the time we were halfway in, it got HOT!
It was not super spicy but if you are a plain eater, this one might burn a bit. If you LOVE a little spice, you will love these! One thing we noticed was that they added avocado to the tacos even though it was not listed on the menu. We thought it was a great addition to the taco but just something to be aware of! The rice and beans were pretty basic rice and beans, but they did taste good!
You can grab this new addition for $10.99!
Next, we tried the Curry Rice Bowl with Shrimp! This dish includes sautéed shrimp and vegetables tossed in red curry sauce with jasmine coconut rice. We were not sure what to expect from this one, but we were very impressed!
Just like the pork, the texture of the shrimp was AMAZING! The veggies were also cooked perfectly and were a highlight of this dish. The curry had a bit of flavor but it did leave us wanting a bit more in terms of spice. The rice complimented the shrimp and veggies very well and everything was seasoned perfectly!
Even if you do not particularly like seafood, we recommend this item! It was not fishy at all and had really big flavor! You can pick this up for $13.99.
We also tried the Happy Daze drink which the restaurant has been serving for quite some time! This drink is made of Parrot Bay Coconut Rum, melon liqueur, banana liqueur, and grenadine with orange and pineapple juice. We’ve gotta say, this one missed the mark.
After our incredible food, we had high hopes for this drink! It tasted like your average sweet Disney drink and there wasn’t anything special to it. Basically just a big sugar bomb, and next time we’ll probably skip this one. That being said, there is nothing wrong with a basic Disney cocktail! If that’s your jam, you would enjoy this. This drink is $12.
We are so thrilled we got to try out the new menu at ABC Commissary! Overall we were super impressed with the food! Since the food was not great in the past, we did not have high expectations but they proved us wrong! We would say this is one of the biggest comebacks from a Disney restaurant that we have seen in a while! As always we will keep you updated on any additions to this new and improved restaurant!
