Garden of Allah Villas? Cafe La Bamba?

[Starwarsfan13]

That does look tasty.

Agreed.

As I stated the other day, food was very good. I also found the prices very reasonable for theme park food.

After talking with the manager I found out some unfortunate news. It's very possible that after New Years day Cafe La Bamba may no longer be open for lunch or dinner. Instead, it would once again only be open for the character breakfast.

A few shots of the interior . . .

I'm pretty sure it'll close again once Starbot Café and the Fast Food District of Springfield open.

I'm sure it will be pressed into service during mardigras untill they finnish all of their projects... it gets too busy to NOT have an extra restaurant open during those nights.

Especially if the do not have the food tents. They did not have them for the Holidays :fist: but did for HHNs. Go figure. The manager was not sure about Mardi Gras but was almost positive that it would close at least temporarily after January 1st.

So it's a pop-up restaurant? That's too bad. I liked the menu. Maybe they're testing some of these items for one of the Simpsons eateries.

 

[Gambit]

Such a shame because it's one of the most beautiful restaurants in the park.

 

[Octobers Fade]

Oh well its not much furhter to go to Moes.

 

[Starwarsfan13]

Maybe they will close it after NYD, and then reopen it when Monster's go down. (Then go down again when the others reopen...)

 

[ThemeParks4Life]

USF should make this permanent, but I still suggest Universal teams up with AMC again to make Los Pollos Hermanos from Breaking Bad. You have the Mexican food plus the chicken everyone wants. It's a win-win.

 

[Disneyhead]

I also feel that it will become a permanent option after the Potter 2.0 hordes invade the park.

 

[SweeneysGalMegz]

I agree with Disneyhead, though I probably wouldn't eat there despite how nice it looks. Not a huge fan of that type of food. But any crowd eater is a good one once the Potter crowds are back.

Gah! I wish they would keep this open for lunch! I ate there for the first time the other day and it was fantastic. Had a burrito with the side of chips and salsa. Mmmm mmmm good :thumbs:

 

[King_K.]

I think they'd do fantastic business if they re-branded the burritos as a "Chipotle-style" build your own. With several selections of rice, beans, meats.

I agree! I had the burrito there and wish I could have chosen what went on it and actually saw them prepare it.

I would love it to become permanent, but if there will be some downtime for it, they should definitely refurb the tiles outside of the restaurant. Horribly maintained, dirty and just bad show honestly.

This restaurant is beautiful. Hopefully it will be open for a while.

Shame that there is no veggie options.

seconded. its such an easy place to make vegetarian as well.

USF dosen't really have vegetarian options, only Louie's and Finnegan's. Assuming the menu stays the same, Starbot Cafe will have no veggie options, and The Simpsons restaurants probably won't have them either. I'm not a vegetarian/vegan, but this is your typical theme park food fare.

For sure! It looks like such a pretty place to eat too. I don't see how hard it would be to add a few vegan/vegetarian options to the menu. And not some salad, because that is not a meal.

Lombard's has a few options. I ate there in November and got this really good ravioli that could be prepared vegan.
