Disney4me Posted October 31 Report Share Posted October 31 We are obsessed with Disney food here at Disney Food Blog. We love it so much it is literally the name of our blog. So, when we see that new menu items have arrived at a Disney World restaurant, you know we HAVE to stop by and check them out! Pizzafari This time we are at Pizzafari in Disney’s Animal Kingdom to try out not one, but TWO new items that just debuted on the menu. We have been a bit disappointed in some new arrivals recently, but we have also found some new favorites, so we are here to give these new items a chance! Pizzafari is located in the Discovery Island area of Disney’s Animal Kingdom. The quick service restaurant offers a menu of Italian-American dishes for both lunch and dinner. This restaurant has a casual themed environment, and it does not lack in the color department. From the moment you walk inside you will be amazed by the colorful murals on the walls! New items have arrived! We are stopping by to try out TWO new menu items: Chicken Parmesan with Marinara Pasta and Creamy Pesto Chicken Pesto. We weren’t off to a good start based on looks, but as they always say, you can’t judge a book by its cover. The meals look like something you might get in a school cafeteria, but the true test will be how they taste! Let’s dive in First off, we are starting with the Chicken Parmesan with Marinara Pasta for $13.29. This dish is served with a slice of garlic bread. Chicken Parmesan with Marinara Pasta Like we said, first impressions aren’t exactly making our mouth water. We are getting microwavable meal vibes with this one. Unfortunately, it tasted just as bad as it looked. Everything is the dish was dull, and it severely lacked in the flavor department. Chicken Parmesan with Marinara Pasta There wasn’t anything in this dish that had good flavor. The breading on the chicken was not good, and the cheese and sauce had a terrible aftertaste. The garlic bread is the same Texas Toast you can get at the grocery store. While tasty bread, we were hoping for so much more for $13.29. We weren’t able to eat much of this meal, but here’s to hoping that the second dish is a bit better. Chicken Parmesan with Marinara Pasta Next up we tried the Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta which also costs $13.29. It is also served with the same grocery store garlic bread. Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta This one doesn’t look very appetizing either, but it is time to dive in regardless! We are happy to report that we enjoyed this dish much better than the Chicken Parmesan one. The chicken tasted the complete opposite of the Chicken Parmesan. It was fresh and it had a light chicken taste. Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta We also liked the sauce that came with it. A lot of it was hidden on the bottom, but we enjoyed the creaminess. The sauce is more comparable to an alfredo sauce. We didn’t taste any pesto in it, but if you are looking for a creamy alfredo sauce this would be a good choice. This dish would be great for picky eaters as it is a plain, but comforting flavor. If you are wanting a more adventurous or flavorful dish, you would not like this very much. Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta Overall, the Creamy Pesto Chicken Pasta was our favorite of the two, but it won’t be the most memorable dish you can find at Disney World. We were not fans of the Chicken Parmesan with Marinara Pasta and would recommend you choose something else on the menu. While these new menu items may not have received raving reviews, we are here to tell you that there is SO much good food at Disney World.
