REVIEW: If You Think You’ve Seen All This Disney World Restaurant Has to Offer, Think Again

🌟 NEW. NEW. NEW. 🌟 If you haven’t been to Disney World in the last few months (even the last few weeks!), there are a lot of NEW things for you to check out. We’ve seen new merchandise, new snacks, work on new attractions, and more all happenings throughout the parks. And now a truly iconic spot in the parks has some new things too!

Hollywood Studios

There are some Disney World restaurants that many people consider to be classics or must-dos on their trips. ‘Ohana, Le Cellier, and even Via Napoli are some of the ones you may have on your own list. Another spot that often falls into that category is The Hollywood Brown Derby in Disney’s Hollywood Studios! This restaurant serves up some famous items like their Cobb Salad and grapefruit cake. Maybe you’ve been here before and are thinking “I’ve already seen what this spot has to offer.” If that’s the case…you’d be WRONG. NEW eats have hit the menu at this spot and they’re some you won’t want to miss!

Atmosphere

The Hollywood Brown Derby is an authentic replica of the famous Brown Derby in Hollywood, California.

The Hollywood Brown Derby!

The walls are covered in caricatures of a ton of celebrities and the interior is an ode to the Golden Age of Hollywood. You’ll find some deeper, maroon colors on the cushions, fancy white table cloths, and little details everywhere to really make you feel like you’ve stepped back in time. 🎬

Inside

There is even a celebrity guest book here that real celebs sign when they come to visit! Be sure to check it out during your next visit to see who has signed!

How fun!

The inside has a lot of dark wood, with traditional tables, chairs, and booths.

It’s really cool in here!

There is also a QR menu available for you to scan and take a look at what you want to eat.

We’re ready to eat!

Alright, alright — enough about the atmosphere. Let’s get to the food!

Menu

Starting with Appetizers, you can find things like Sea Scallops, Shrimp Cocktail, and even a Charcuterie Board. The newer options here include the Escargot Casino and the Roasted Tomato Cream Soup.

For Entrees, there is a special Filet Mignon on the menu right now for the 50th anniversary, and also the Famous Cobb Salad! Some of the new dishes include the Tomato Risotto and Braised Short Rib. What was previously the Trout Amandine has also been replaced with a “Seasonal Fish,” though they contain the same description about the blue crab meat and other accompaniments.

You can also get enhancements added onto your meal here, like the new Shrimp Macaroni & Cheese or Spoon Bread. For dessert, there’s a 50th Celebration Baked Alaska and the iconic Grapefruit Cake, among other picks.

For the kiddos, they can start with an appetizer of Chicken Noodle Soup or Chopped Salad, and then create their own entree! There are things like Grilled Chicken Breast and a Hot Dog.

©Disney

Kids can then add 2 sides to their meal, with options such as Mashed Potatoes or Sliced Apples. There are also some non-alcoholic drinks on the menu, like the EARidescent Sip-a-bration.

©Disney

As for drinks with alcohol, there is an extensive drink list that you can find at the restaurant!

So many options!

Now, it’s time to eat!

Eats

We kicked things off with the Derby Cocktail for $15. Note that this is NOT a new addition to the menu.

It has Gentleman Jack, Florida honey syrup, and pink grapefruit juice, and comes with a souvenir glow cube. The drink used to come with a little bowler hat glow cube floating in it (SO FUN), but it sadly does not anymore and we got a regular glow cube instead. 😭

So pretty!

You can definitely taste the grapefruit and the Jack in this drink! The alcohol flavor is strOOOOOng. It’s not sweet at all, but instead has more of a tart flavor.

We like this drink because it’s more unique than something like an Old Fashioned, but you truly gotta like boozy drinks to enjoy this one — there’s no covering up of that flavor!

Watch out for that booze!

Moving onto the food, our meal began with bread rolls, which are classic dinner rolls, so how could that be bad?! While the rolls are simple, what really puts them over-the-top is that salted butter they come with. SO GOOD. But, remember not to fill up too much — you’ve got more food to enjoy!

Delish

Now, time for some new eats! First up, we got the NEW Roasted Tomato Cream Soup, which has Lump Crab, Caper, and Fried Garlic for $15. This soup was actually poured table-side, which was a fun and fancy touch!

Fancy!

The crab in this had a nice saltiness that balanced out the sweetness of the creamy tomato soup.

Look at this bowl!

And the little pops from the fried garlic pieces added an interesting and tasty element!

YUM

Overall, it was a very delicious and creamy tomato soup. Not a bad choice if that’s something you’re craving!

Would get again!

Next, we went with the NEW Escargot Casino, which has Roasted Garlic Béchamel, Crispy Prosciutto, and Piquillo Pepper Crumb for $19. Yes, that’s right folks, it’s time to eat some SNAILS. 🐌 Maybe just don’t think about the fact that they are snails? 😂

This looks interesting!

Now, we know snails aren’t everyone’s jam, but this was actually phenomenal! We even liked it better than the soup (no offense, soup). This is probably because the most prominent flavor was that creamy garlic sauce and the fried prosciutto — it almost completely covers up any escargot flavor.

Better than you think it’ll be!

The texture might throw you off, but the flavor was all prosciutto & garlic goodness, so we would most definitely order this again!

Don’t be afraid to try this!

Moving on to the entrees, we started with the NEW Free-Range Chicken Coq au Vin which comes with Pan-fried Potatoes, Thigh Confit and Red Wine Sauce for $35.

That color!

Unfortunately, our chicken was a bit too dry for our taste. It wasn’t terrible, but it just wasn’t good enough for us to want to spend $35 on it again.

We need more from this

The potatoes did have a fatty bacon mixed in, which brought a nice smokiness to them, and we did enjoy the red wine sauce. But, overall, this wasn’t one of our favorite dishes of the night and isn’t one we’d rush to eat again.

Not Our Favorite

Next, we tried a newer dish, the Sustainable Salmon Coulibiac, which has Pickled Mushrooms, Wilted Spinach, Puff Pastry and Mustard-Dill Butter Sauce for $38. Previously, the menu featured an Ora King Salmon option which was served with Grilled Local Corn, Fresno Peppers, and Sweet Corn Veloute, but as you can see, things have changed when it comes to salmon at this spot.

Puff pastry on top!

This salmon dish was excellent! It was cooked well, as was the rice, but the main star of everything was that Mustard-Dill Butter Sauce. It was AMAZING and had a really strong dill flavor. We wanted to pour it on everything! We repeat, EVERYTHING.

A closer look!

Moving on to the Tomato Risotto (another NEW dish), this comes with Eggplant Fritters and Pepper Relish for $29. This is a vegetarian option, and while our server said it is plant-based, it is not specifically marked that way on Disney’s online menu, so be sure to double check before you order it!

So colorful!

This was also delicious! (We’ve got some serious winners with these new menu items!) The risotto was nice and creamy and had a lot of sweetness from the tomato. But, when we got a bite with the pickled veggies too, it was phenomenal! A total *chef’s kiss!* 👩‍🍳

Amazing

The eggplant fritters were good as well, but were a little mushy. We had wanted them to be a bit firmer in terms of texture. You also really have to like eggplant to enjoy these because that’s the main flavor!

Eggplant

Overall though, this seemed like a very thoughtful vegetarian dish, as opposed to something that may have just been thrown together. Plus, look at just how colorful it is!

We’d get again!

Finally, we got the Braised Short Rib, another NEW dish. This comes with Parsnip Purée, Spring Vegetable Succotash and Truffle Aïoli for $39. This was our FAVORITE of all of the new entrees! ⭐

A winner!

The meat was fall-off-the-bone tender and delicious, and the truffle aioli made it even better (if you like truffle, that is!).

Such a nice presentation

The parsnip puree was like a sweeter version of mashed potatoes and was verrrrry buttery. Plus the succotash brought a lovely brightness and freshness to the dish! YUM. YUM. YUM!

Look at that!

Note that we didn’t try one of the newer entrees, which is the Seasonal Fish. It comes with Blue Crab Meat, Roasted Turnips, and Almond and Spiced Brown Butter Sauce for $38. Again, this previously was called Trout Amandine and contained the same description about the blue crab meat and other accompaniments.

But the eating isn’t over yet! We also got some enhancements with our meal. First up was the NEW Spoon Bread for $8. This comes with a Lavender-Honey Butter, which you can definitely taste! It was distinctly sweet with that 🍯 honey 🍯and you could even taste the floral lavender. 

Yum!

This was similar to a corn bread or even a corn pudding and was (as we mentioned) quite sweet but also verrrrry delicious. Two thumbs up from us (and from Pooh Bear too in all likelihood).

We want a bigger one!

Next, we tried the NEW Shrimp Macaroni & Cheese for $16. This has Chili-Garlic Gremolata, Orecchiette Pasta, and Cheddar Sauce and was absolutely scrumptious!

Mac and Cheese please

It had big, juicy shrimp mixed in and our server even said they start off the dish with lobster broth, which could explain why it’s SO flavorful. It was delightfully creamy and cheesy, and the chili mixed with the breadcrumbs added another layer of smoky flavor. 

We honestly wish we could’ve had full sizes of these two enhancements!

Shrimp!

Finally, we finished out our meal with the iconic Grapefruit Cake for $13. This is A Brown Derby Original with Vanilla Sponge Cake, Grapefruit Syrup, and Cream Cheese Icing.

A classic

Note that this is NOT a new item. But, the way that our grapefruit cake looked was just a little bit different than what we’ve had before. During a visit in 2020, it seemed to have a much heavier amount of that syrup on top.

Brown Derby Grapefruit Cake in 2020

This time, the syrup was much less present on top. But, that doesn’t mean we didn’t enjoy it! There is a reason this is the signature dessert here. It’s consistently amazing and our recent trip was no exception! The tartness of the grapefruit perfectly cuts through the sweetness from the frosting and cake. The spongecake is also light and airy, which is amazing.

10/10

It’s also a really unique dessert that you don’t find in many other places, so (at least in our opinion) it’s totally worth a try! So, should you stop by The Hollywood Brown Derby for these new eats or some classic ones? Here are our thoughts.

Nosh or Not

Sit down for a nice meal at The Hollywood Brown Derby if:

  • You want a long, relaxing break during your Hollywood Studios day
  • You want to feel the glitz and glam of Old Hollywood
  • You want to try out some classic dishes, or some delicious new ones, and treat yourself to a nice meal

Skip on over to another dining spot if:

  • You’re on a budget, this place is pricey compared to other things in the park
  • You don’t want a bigger meal or want something more traditional to a theme park
  • You’re trying to get as much done during your park day as possible and don’t want a long break

Overall

Overall, The Hollywood Brown Derby remains a classic. We truly enjoyed most of the dishes we had here, with the exception of the Chicken Coq au Vin, which wasn’t terrible but was too dry for our tastes. In terms of the other new items, they were delicious and (in our opinion) a great addition to the menu!

The Tomato Cream Soup was wonderful (and served in a fun way), the escargot was really tasty and something we’d get again, the salmon had that mustard-dill sauce that we’d like to pour on everything(!), the tomato risotto was flavorful and colorful, the braised short rib was a FAVORITE of ours and so tender, the spoon bread was sweet and delicious, and the shrimp mac & cheese had loads of flavor — WHEW! That’s a lot of new items!

Brown Derby

Will these new items tempt you away from the classic Cobb Salad or other items here? That’s up to you and your tastes, but some of them might definitely be worth a try during a future visit!

If you want a relaxing meal while you’re in Hollywood Studios, this is a great spot, just be aware that it is one of the nicer restaurants in the park, so that comes with a higher price tag. Stay tuned to DFB for more Disney World food news and reviews!

Florida Governor Comments on Disney’s Response to the Passage of the “Don’t Say Gay” Bill

We’ve been closely following the situation surrounding Florida’s Parental Rights in Education bill (now law) (called the “Don’t Say Gay” bill by critics) and Disney’s responses to the legislation.

Spaceship Earth

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis recently signed the heavily criticized “Don’t Say Gay” bill into law. Soon after, Disney released a statement announcing that their goal is “for this law to be repealed by the legislature or struck down in the courts.” Disney also shared that they intend to support national and state organizations that are committed to that goal. Now, DeSantis has responded to Disney’s statement.

According to Forbes, Gov. Ron DeSantis has stated that Disney’s recent comments about working to repeal the law have “crossed a line.” DeSantis said that Disney “didn’t seem to have a problem with [the law] when it was going through [the House]. If this is such an affront, why weren’t they speaking up at the outset?”

©Deadline

Disney has been criticized for not publicly condemning the law earlier on, and some employees have staged walkouts in protest of Disney’s responses to the bill, before it passed in the Florida Senate and House. Disney CEO Bob Chapek has since apologized and committed to future action against the law.

©Ryan Faughnder via Twitter (@RFaughnder) on the walkouts

Now that Disney has taken a more definite stand against the law, Gov. DeSantis is saying that “Disney’s statement was ‘fundamentally dishonest’ and ‘crossed a line,’ adding that Florida is not governed ‘based on the demands of California corporate executives’” (Forbes). A sponsor of the bill has returned campaign donations from Disney in protest of their recent statement.

Pride wall in Disney Springs

Deadline noted that Gov. DeSantis also said that people in Hollywood are “opposed to providing protections for parents and enforcing parents’ rights.” DeSantis stated, “If the people who held up degenerates like Harvey Weinstein as exemplars and as heroes, if those are the types of people and all that that are opposing us on parents’ rights, I wear that like a badge of honor.”

Rainbow Mickey

The Parental Rights in Education law will go into effect on July 1st, 2022. The law states that “classroom instruction by school personnel or third parties on sexual orientation or gender identity may not occur in kindergarten through grade 3 or in a manner that is not age appropriate or developmentally appropriate for students in accordance with state standards.”

We’ll continue to look for more updates about this legislation and Disney’s responses to it. To see more about the law and other updates that had been previously shared about this topic, click the links below:

A Replacement Service for Disney’s Magical Express Is Getting BIGGER

It’s been several months since we said goodbye to Disney’s Magical Express.

Magical Express bus

This complimentary bus service shuttled guests from the Orlando International Airport to their Disney Resort hotel and vice versa, but Disney ended the Magical Express in early 2022. In its place, a few new contenders have emerged, including the Sunshine Flyer. It seems to be doing well, too, because the Sunshine Flyer has EXPANDED!

The Sunshine Flyer recently added ten new buses to its fleet — and fans have officially named the new rides! Note that The Sunshine Flyer is not a Disney-operated transportation option and it’s not free, so you’ll have to be prepared for some of those changes if you plan to use this service for your next trip.

Sunshine Flyer

The unique thing about the buses used on The Sunshine Flyer is that they’re each themed to old-style trains and there’s even some special theming when it comes to employee costumes.

Click here to learn more about the service!

And it looks like the service is getting a bit bigger. The Sunshine Flyer previously announced that it would be adding ten additional buses to its lineup, and asked its fans and followers for help naming the new buses. 

And the results are in! Here are the names of the ten new buses being added to the Sunshine Flyer’s fleet:

  • Marlin
  • Dingo
  • Cricket
  • Bumble Bee
  • Oriole
  • Ladybug
  • Peacock
  • Koala
  • Robin
  • Platypus

Sunshine Flyer

Clearly, the names follow a popular theme — animals! What bus do you hope to get if you decide to use this service? Tell us in the comments!

And stay tuned to DFB for more updates on Disney transportation news!

REVIEW: New Spring Dinner Menu at Carthay Circle Restaurant Delights Us at Disney California Adventure

Carthay Circle Restaurant at Disney California Adventure has come out with a new spring dinner menu for the season. We stopped by the signature dining location to try some of the new items. Keep on reading for our review.

Interior

Carthay Circle Restaurant is known for its upscale, modern global cuisine. The restaurant is a replica of the former Carthay Circle Theatre of Hollywood’s Golden Age, where “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs” first premiered in 1937. A nod to the classic film can be seen on the ceiling inside the restaurant.

Menu

Cocktails

Carthay Old Fashioned – $18.50

Woodford Reserve Bourbon with Angostura and Orange Bitters, a Luxardo Gourmet Maraschino Cherry, and served with an Ice Sphere

This is a classic, well-balanced old fashioned. The orange bitters are pretty prominent with the bourbon.

Starters

Yukon Potato Croquettes – $18

Manchego Cheese, Spanish Chorizo, Roasted Garlic Aioli

These are creamy golden potatoes with mashed consistency in a fried, thin, and crunchy exterior.

The creamy aioli adds a lot of flavor, as do the chunks of chorizo. Although, the chorizo isn’t very spicy.

These were delicious.

Sustainable Fish of the Day – $50

Shrimp, Lentils, Charred Orange-Guajillo Chili Vinaigrette

Our fish of the day was halibut. And it was tender and buttery in a well-seasoned vinaigrette that has a Mexican flare.

The shrimp were pleasant and not fishy at all.

The lentils go well with the soup-like sauce that sits underneath.

Overall, this was a very enjoyable dish.

Dessert

Manjari Chocolate Cloud – $15

Chocolate Crumble, Mango Passion Fruit Curd

This Chocolate Cloud is made of rich chocolate with a sweet mango filling.

It is accompanied with a potent and tart raspberry sauce. It’s a winning combination.

This dessert was the “raspberry on top” to a great spring dinner experience.

All in all, we absolutely would return to Carthay Circle Restaurant for this delightful meal, and we highly recommend it to others. Let us know what you think in the comments below!

Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Review Gets Reopening Date

Walt Disney World has just announced that the fan-favorite musical dinner show, Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue, will return this summer to Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground!

Reservations open on May 26th for showtimes beginning on June 23rd.

Below, you’ll find the official details directly from Disney:

The Pioneer Hall Players and cast members will be welcoming back guests to this frontier-style family fun dining experience in Pioneer Hall at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground. First debuting in 1974, Hoop-Dee-Doo will once again offer guests a rousing Wild West performance, singing, zany comedy with lots of laughs and an unforgettable countrified feast full of fried chicken, smoked BBQ ribs, a variety of savory sides and of course, strawberry shortcake, yum! The menu is sure to make your mouth water and have you hollerin’ for seconds (and thirds!). 

Since its opening day almost 50 years ago, this fan-favorite show has continued to surprise and delight our guests, and as Disney grows we look for new ways to elevate and enhance our classic experiences. Hoop-Dee-Doo will return with a few updates to its script and scenery, while staying true to the treasured experience the whole family can enjoy – with the hilarious, high-spirited entertainment that it’s been known for all these years.
