Be Our Guest Restaurant – Menu Released, Opening Date Still Fuzzy

11 Shares

The Disney Parks Blog released information today about the menu for the Be Our Guest Restaurant, coming to the Fantasyland Expansion sometime this Fall (the announcement still says vaguely that they will begin taking ADRs in late August for a “holiday season” opening). The restaurant will be the first hybrid restaurant at Walt Disney World – Quick Service at lunch, and Table Service for dinner. But even the Quick Service lunch will be a cut above. Guests will order either from an electronic ordering kiosk or the ordering window, and then find a seat. Meals will be delivered to guests at their tables, on real plates to be eaten with real silverware – no paper goods. We already know that the restaurant will be beautiful. The Parks Blog has posted concept art, photographs, and even a short video of the inside of the restaurant, but now we have an idea of what in store food-wise. The menu has a distinctly French flair, as expected.

Lunch offerings include:
Tuna Niçoise salad
Croque Monsieur sandwich with carved ham, Gruyere cheese, béchamel and pommes frites (French fries)
Carved turkey on a warm baguette with Dijon mayonnaise
Grilled steak sandwich with garlic butter spread
Braised pork
Vegetable quiche
Quinoa, shallot and chive salad.

Children’s Lunch Menu
Carved turkey sandwich
Roasted pulled pork
Mickey meatloaf
Seared mahi mahi
Whole-grain macaroni topped with marinara and mozzarella

At dinner, the menu will feature:
Appetizers
Charcuterie plate with cured meats and sausages, mussels steamed in white wine
French onion soup
Potato leek soup
Salad with champagne vinaigrette
Salad trio with three mini tastes of roasted beet, raisins and orange; green beans, tomatoes and roasted shallots; and watermelon, radish and mint.

Entrées
Thyme-scented pork rack chop with au gratin pasta
Rotisserie rock hen with roasted fingerling potatoes
Pan-seared salmon in leek fondue
Grilled strip steak with pommes frites
Sautéed shrimp and scallops with veggies in puff pastry with creamy lobster sauce
Oven-baked ratatouille

Dessert
Strawberry cream cheese cupcake
Triple chocolate cupcake
Chocolate cream puff
Passion fruit cream puff

Children’s Dinner Menu
Grilled steak
Grilled fish of the day
Whole-grain macaroni

What do you think of the menu? Will Be Our Guest Restaurant be on your family’s must-do list?

Where’s the Gray Stuff? I hear it’s delicious.

This could go either way. I’ve never had real “French” food before (And I’ve been told French Fries don’t count.) I’m sure it will be very tasty, but I’m concerned about the price point. My rule of thumb – the longer it takes to say the name of the dish, the more expensive it will be. Are they trying to match Cinderella’s Royal Table here, price wise? Are they shooting for another signature restaurant?

That shrimp and scallop puff pastry sounds tasty. Someone get me one ASAP.

Barry – I don’t know about the French food thing either. Unless French Toast counts. I’m excited to see the new restaurant though and I fully intend to try both the lunch and dinner options this December if we can get an ADR. I will definitely share my 100% completely biased “I like red meat and potatoes, you can keep that fancy stuff” opinion of the food.

I hope they’re not going to try to price it like CRT though… hadn’t even thought about the pricing angle yet. I guess that announcement is still to come.
