Narcoosee’s Reopening April 1

[Richie248]

WOW! Shocked it's opening April 1st and even more shocked it's not going the prix fixe route! Menu looks pretty good to me! I'll be making reservations for my May trip!

I wouldn't recommend switching. Citricos is generally considered superior.

I like Citricos’ menu....but I really love Narcoossee’s; already there are several items I know I would order. If I do switch plans, I would definitely try Citricos next time - and since I’m an AP holder, it won‘t be all that far down the line.

The menu looks great. I’ve only been there once and it was my favorite Disney meal ever. We were planning to try Citricos but now I’m not sure. Maybe both? The Citricos entrees aren’t as appealing to me so maybe we’ll try Citricos lounge.

The menu was good before and still looks very good. I am surprised that it didn't come back as a Prix-Fixe menu. Probably because people go there to dine and not to watch fireworks.

I'm also surprised, but very relieved, that it doesn't appear to be going the Prix Fixe route. To me, that's just Disney's way to get you to spend more money for your meal, if you're the type of person who has a small appetite. If DH and I really want to go to a restaurant that's prix fixe, we have to pay for a big meal and eat about half our food. Gone are the days of ordering an appetizer or two, maybe dessert. Hopefully, this doesn't mean we say "Goodbye" to Narcoose's.

Not sure how I feel about our favorite restaurant. My one thing that was always a go to, was the delicious filet mignon. But, I hate lobster. And I don't want a NY sirloin to substitute. I'm anxious to find out if you can just get a nice size filet like before, without lobster (and not that hefty $87 price tag wow). I'll wait for the reviews.

I have an 8:10 p.m. ADR for Citricos that I want to move to around 7:00 p.m., so I’m hoping some people cancel Citricos to grab Narcoosee’s!

 

[Ralph&Pam]

We’re pleasantly surprised that it’s not going prix fixe. We much prefer al a carte menus due to a food allergy. Waiting to see availability for a later April date for which we currently have a Citricos ADR. We had a wonderful dinner at Citricos last month (DW claims it was the best filet she’s ever had, including meals at WDW, aboard cruise ships, and at our local Morton’s steakhouse), but we are always interested in trying new or renovated restaurants at least once. We always enjoyed Narcoossee’s in the pre-Covid days.

According to Blog Mickey -

Disney said that they aren’t done with construction in the space yet, and that “there may be select days in May and June where reservations are unavailable”.

I think it looks great! Love the booths w/ a view! Moderna Nautical! Can't wait to dine here in May!

Agreed. I think it’s beautiful.

When you go in May, could you please ask if its possible to get the Filet Mignon without the lobster for the past price? I know, its a stretch, but I hate lobster.

There are basically no dates in April or May so not sure what they are doing. Its popular but not popular to the point every date is sold out. A few random dates with 8:00pm time slots showed up last week but since then, nothing

Just read on Disney Parks Blog:
"Please note, because we are still putting finishing touches on Narcoossee’s, there may be select days in May and June where reservations are unavailable for this venue."

I guess that's playing a role in lack of avail however I wonder if those dates were already blocked out, or if they have to re-accommodate people?

 

[DisneyMountainWoman]

Ohh this looks good. I looved Narcoossee's, it needed a little TLC. I am honestly just loving the apps and soups. I could do a whole meal with apps, soups and dessert with the new menu.

 

[Betsyp]

Wow, absolutely gorgeous ..love LOVE the blue banquettes and the windows looking out to the Iagoon

I have a reservation on 5/5 - I haven’t heard anything..

 

[Sweettears]

I was able to get reservations for my trip end of May.

Hard to tell but looks like the bar seating is still there. Earlier rumors were that it was being removed.

We have an adr for next Friday, my DH will only want the fillet. I’ll try to remember to post if they let him just order that. If not, I guess I’ll be having lobster tail, lol.


Also, the room looks nice, but we’re always a party of 2, looks like those tables are now all in the middle & back, near the bar. Not the best location IMO. We’ve been seated along the windows & in other tables over the years. Hopefully we still will be.
