Chomp on croco-licious dishes sure to tame ferocious appetites! Enjoy our lip-smacking menu items, including Pulled Pork Cheese Arepa with Plantain Chips, and cold beverages.
Perfect quick service stop for food in animal kingdom! Pork and chicken tacos were delicious, as well as tortilla chips. We also split an island sunrise which was refreshing and not too sweet! Great stop for food not far from the tree of life!

✨Fast & Delicious✨
I didn’t know how to use the virtual wait line for a lunch reservation so when we were walking around we stumbled upon this place in Animal Kingdom - and it was such a pleasant surprise!
✨Food - we ordered the pulled port street tacos ($9.99), street corn tacos ($9.99), and 2 drinks! I was confused why the tacos with meat and without meat were the same price. The flavors were really good though! The corn tortillas didn’t fall apart, so they seemed fresh. Each of our meals came with chips and salsa. The chips were crispy and the salsa was delicious!
✨Service - the woman who took our order was friendly and answered our questions. The line did take about 20min to get through 3 people in front of us, so we felt like that was reasonable.
✨Hours - they are only open 11:00AM-3PM

Great eating option in Animal Kingdom.
There are many options to eat at Animal Kingdom. The Flame Tree Barbecue, Harambe Market, Pandora Canteen and on and on. Many of these places now require you to make reservations or complete the mobile order before arriving or entering their locations. This location is an excellent option that does not require any of that. It is a small stand-alone building located outside of Dino-Land, just toward the Asia part of the park along the walkway next to the FlameTree Barbeque eating area. You walk up to the window, choose your selection and order what you want. You pay right there. It is prepared as you wait and you receive it at the other window. The menu is very simple. There are 3 main items of which we tried 2 of them and they were both excellent. Each entrée was about $10 but worth it. Additionally, they come with chips and salsa and chips very filling. The staff was very friendly and efficient. Once you are done, there are numerous places to find a table and eat. We used the area right behind the small shop that is a rather large area with numerous pavilions and tables situated along the lake. We also got the added benefit of seeing a new show with Jet Ski’s along the lake. Very cool.
