The Cilantro Urban Eatery food truck has returned to Disney Springs for daily operation, replacing Disney’s mac and cheese food truck.
Summer House on the Lake was announced in the summer of 2022, taking over the space formerly planned for Beatrix Restaurant. Disney and Lettuce Entertain You had previously announced that Beatrix was merely “on hold,” but it seems they decided not to go forward with that particular project. Lettuce Entertain You is the owner of both Beatrix and Summer House Santa Monica, which are both considered Chicago staples. Gray brickwork was recently installed during construction.
