- More restaurants reopening at Disney World
- Citricos will reopen July 15 with new theme, menu
- Trail's End will reopen July 17 with family-style menu
Citricos at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, Casey’s Corner at Magic Kingdom, and a few other restaurants that have been closed since March 2020, now have reopening dates.
Citricos will reopen July 15 with a few changes, including a new theme and a new menu. The theme, which diners will notice in the dining room, is inspired by the Disney live-action film, “Mary Poppins Returns.”
“Taking subtle cues from the movie’s animated sequence, the dining room brings guests into a fanciful garden setting where you can ‘trip a little light fantastic’ as you experience the restaurant surrounded by the glow from decorative lamps and chandeliers,” according to a post on the Disney Parks Blog.
The menu, crafted by Chef Andres Mendoza, will feature starters such as sweet corn bisque and strawberry salad, along with entrees such as butter-poached Florida cobia and guava barbequed short ribs. And for dessert, there will be warm apple rose and chocolate torte.
Over at The Campsites at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort, Trail’s End will reopen July 17 with a family-style menu for breakfast and dinner. For breakfast, diners will be served skillets with smoked brisket, eggs, bacon, sausage, cheesy potato casserole and Mickey waffles. For dinner, the family-style skillet comes with pecan-smoked brisket, rotisserie chicken, andouille sausage, fingerlings potatoes, green beans and buttered corn on the cob. Disney says pork spare ribs, peel n’ eat shrimp and cornbread-crusted salmon will be available as add-ons.
