If one is already hot and in a crowded place, burrito isn't the first "refreshing" thing that comes to mind...

Then for god's sake, let's ask them to just serve jello salads and do away with these 'Heavy' options. What, Jello is not enough of a variety you say. Well, serve different flavors at different locations. Jello for one, Jello for all. One thing is for sure, the kids will most likely not complain. Who is with me? Let's start the great Jello Only Kingdom Effort or JOKE for short. I mean really, what is lighter than Jello?

Air. How about the Pecos Bill Mile-Long Vape Bar? We air because we care (and cause less cancer than AstroTurf).

While the menu looks/sounds interesting, the pictures seem to tell a pretty dismal tale. I wouldn't be surprised if attendance drops as a result.

We walked in the day the menu changed. At 12:30 PM there were about 7 people in each line and more were turning around and leaving than were staying and ordering. WE turned around as well, as we were not in the mood for Texmex. Columbia Harbor House was PACKED to the gills. The line was all the way around the corner and there was no seating to be had for 10 minutes after we got our food. We wound up sharing a table with a nice family that had come over from Pecos Bill's as well. Just my take.

I like the Disney Food Blog, but they gush over just about everything Disney does. It's rare to see anything more scathing than a tepid endorsement.

You take anyone's review with a grain of salt. It's all a matter of opinion. I posted the review more for factual information. Someone had said that the decor had changed and the Disney Food Blog confirmed that it did not. Someone else said the guac had disappeared from the toppings bar and the DFB helped dispel that as well.

This doesn't indicate anything. People went there expecting that they would still serve burgers and were not expecting a brand new menu. That's likely why they walked away. It had nothing to do with whether it's a good restaurant or not or even if it would appeal to these same people on a different day when they are prepared to walk in and see Tex Mex.

It was also so soon that those who will go and seek out this restaurant because of the menu change hadn't heard the news yet.

So, we will have to wait until the word gets out and reviews start coming in before we can tell by looking whether this is a popular spot or not.

given that this is fast food...would they take a request for something like no beans extra rice on some of those plates? Everything else looks good but I'm not a Mexican bean guy

You know what's funny?
The next time someone is there, try ordering a bowl with a burrito-sized tortilla on the side...and let me know the results. :D

I, too, am worried that the fickle fast food expectations of the masses will lead to this new menu going the way of Noodle Station. I was a fan of Noodle Station's Asian menu, but it didn't last because the crowds didn't materialize on days when the the other park eateries were packed. Worryingly, I saw some of that when we ate Pecos last week - not as busy here as other places.

The Pecos food quality lives up to the hype; it's almost (not quite) as good as Chipotle. Unlimited guacamole is a major boon and I fret that won't last.

Will we be back to Pecos if the guacamole lasts? Um, every time we're in MK. Might also be our family's preference for Tex-Mex, too.

Sitting by pecos waiting on the parade and I'm surprised by the number of people coming up to the door and not liking the new menu and going somewhere else
