Our
favorite pavilion in World Showcase (though Norway runs a close second). The
scenery inside is fantastic featuring Mayan pyramids with volcanoes oozing
lava off in the distance. Best of all, you can enjoy a meal here while
soaking in the atmosphere as
ride boats gently float by on a moonlight Mexican night. For Disney World
buffs, the ride offers a few sequences similar to those used in Tomorrowland's gone, but
not forgotten "If You Had Wings" and "Dreamflight."
Dining
There are four options for food and drink located in Mexico. Inside, you
will find San Angel Inn, a
full
service restaurant at under the stars along the waterway. Authentic Mexican
fare is offered in this quiet, romantic setting. Also inside, La Cava del
Tequila is a bar that serves tequila as you like it, straight up or mixed
into some truly unique margarita options. Outside, La Hacienda de San Angel
is open for dinner only, serving up Mexican favorites inspired by fresh
ingredients. This spot at the water's edge is a great place to watch
Illuminations from, if you time your reservation right. At lunch, La
Hacienda de San Angel provides additional seating indoors for the adjacent
La Cantina de San Angel, a counter service spot offering tacos, nachos, and
combination plates. Click for menus below!
Gran
Fiesta Tour Starring The Three Caballeros (replacing "El Rio Del
Tiempo") debuted in
April 2007, with a new storyline and film featuring Donald Duck, José
Carioca (the parrot), and Panchito (the Mexican charro rooster) from the
1944 Disney film "The Three Caballeros." The "Gran Fiesta Tour" film
features an animated overlay of the caballeros being reunited for a grand
performance in Mexico City. Along the way, Donald disappears to take in the
sights of the country, leaving José and Panchito to search for their missing
friend. In addition to the new film, the boat ride's props, set facades and
sound system have been refurbished and enhanced. This slow moving boat ride
is fun for all ages.
