REVIEW: We Tried NEW Menu Items at Disney’s Updated Restaurant — Aunt Cass Café

A new land has opened in Disney’s California Adventure!

It’s officially open!

We popped in to check out San Fransokyo Square and try the new eats that popped up. We’re here to give you a review on a few menu items at one restaurant in the square!

San Fransokyo is the town in the movie Big Hero 6 and Aunt Cass is Hiro’s, the main character’s, guardian. In the movie, Aunt Cass owns a bakery and coffee shop. Now in San Fransokyo Square in Disney’s California Adventure, Aunt Cass has a Café. We tried out a few items from Aunt Cass Café and wanted to let you know what we thought!

Aunt Cass Cafe

We tried out two main meals and a specialty drink. First was the Shrimp Katsu Sandwich. This sandwich is served with a panko-breaded shrimp patty with cabbage slaw, spicy mayo, and katsu sauce all on a potato bun. It is served with garlic chips. We liked that the slaw paired nicely with the spicy mayo because the spicy mayo did add a kick!

We noticed that the shimp patty was very similar to a crab cake texture and it wasn’t a super strong shrimp flavor. Overall, we thought the shrimp could have actually been a bit more flavorful and a bit less salty. But if you like shrimp, then you would probably really enjoy this sandwich! If you don’t like shrimp, you’ll probably want to pass. You can get this for $14.99.

The next meal we tried was the Curry Beef. This was made up of beef, carrots, potatoes, and onions all cooking in a classic curry and topped with rice, pickled ginger, and green onions. It’s then served in a bread bowl.

There was a bit of a mild spice, but it didn’t overpower the curry flavor. And the curry was a good, classic curry broth with the pickled ginger shining through. If you’re not a fan of spice or curry, this might not be the dish for you. But if you enjoy curry, ginger, a bit of spice, and bread bowls you should give it a try! It’s $12.49.

The last item we tried was the Specialty Caramel Cream Cold Brew. It’s made with Joffrey’s Coffee™ Caramel Mudslide Cold Brew and topped with house-made sea salt caramel whipped cream. And of course, it was served in an adorable Baymax cup!

It’s Baymax!

We really enjoyed the sea salt caramel the best! The sea salt wasn’t overpowering and it had a yummy, sweet caramel flavor. However, we weren’t the biggest fans of the cold brew itself. We didn’t notice a whole lot of caramel flavor. It seemed to be mostly just a typical cold brew coffee with a hint of caramel. If you prefer to have caramel with a hint of coffee, this probably isn’t the right drink for you. However, if you like the taste of coffee and just a tad sweet, you would probably like this cold brew drink. Grab one for $6.79.

Overall, we really enjoyed Aunt Cass Café. If you like to try new foods and flavors we would recommend giving this a try! The menu has a fun combination of flavors that we think you would enjoy. Aunt Cass Café is a quick service restaurant, and you can use Mobile Order to skip the line!
