Hey there, fellow food adventurers! Today, I’m touching on one of the flavorful wonders of Disney Springs – the popular Taco Cone from the 4 Rivers Cantina Taco Truck, a meal that is as budget-friendly as it is Instagram-worthy.
Nestled amidst the hustle and bustle of Disney Springs, the 4 Rivers Cantina Taco Truck is one of the more budget friendly eats in the area. You can smell the spices in the air from this colorful food truck when you are still half a block away. While the smell of taco truck is enough to sell me on most foods (tacos are my weakness, I confess), it’s the sight of their signature Taco Cone that truly steals the show.
Let’s talk about this Taco Cone. Featuring tender, succulent barbacoa beef nestled in a crispy cone shell, topped with fresh pico de gallo, tangy queso fresco, and a drizzle of creamy cilantro-lime crema, this thing is AWESOME.
While you DO need a fork to mix it up a bit (unless you want a huge bite of just guac or sour cream), its not as unwieldy as it seems at first glance. I tore off sides of the cone to dip into the contents like nachos, then I mixed it up with a fork and dug in. My husband was a bit more barbaric and just tore into it like it was a turkey leg. But regardless of technique, we both agreed that each bite was flavorful, perfectly balanced and utterly irresistible. It’s a handheld masterpiece that combines convenience with culinary craftsmanship.
Disney dining can sometimes put a strain on the wallet, but this Taco Cone offers a budget-friendly option without compromising on taste or quality. Priced just right (only $12.50 at the time of this writing!), it’s a satisfying meal that won’t break the bank.
Again, the real appeal of this meal is it’s overwhelming Instagram factor! We live in an age where every meal is a photo op (especially at Disney!) and the Taco Cone is absolutely photo-worthy. Its vibrant colors and artful presentation make it a prime candidate for your social media feed.
Disney Springs offers a TON of picturesque spots to eat your Taco Cone. Whether you choose to perch at one of the stand-up tables around the waterfront (there aren’t very many, and if you go on a night where there’s a drone show… well, good luck!), so plan to eat your Taco Cone while soaking in the ambiance at the waterfront stage, or simply strolling along the charming shops. Personally, I love finding a cozy spot by the water, where I can watch the world go by while visiting with my hubby and chowing down. (That’s what my husband did this last visit when we snuck away from the kiddos for a quick date!)
The Taco Cone from 4 Rivers Cantina Taco Truck is a must-try for any Disney foodie. With its irresistible flavors, budget-friendly price point, and Instagram-worthy appeal, it’s a culinary adventure that’s sure to delight. So next time you find yourself wandering Disney Springs, be sure to make a pit stop at the 4 Rivers Cantina Taco Truck. Your taste buds will thank you, and your Instagram feed will never look better!
Bon appétit,
