Beatrix will be built on the land vacated by Bongo's.
Beatrix will occupy an all new building as the former Bongo's site is cleared.
The restaurant owned by Gloria and Emilio Estefan will end operations this week at Disney Springs.
One of the longest serving restaurants at Disney Springs will be moving to a new venue outside of Disney later this year.
We began our family vacation at Bongo's in 2012 and it was great! My parents, wife, and two children arrived to a restaurant that was packed due to Valentine's Day.

The restaurant was lively and later had a band playing. Our waitress was friendly and knowledgeable. My wife and mother had the seafood platter which was tremendous and highly recommended! My father and I ordered the beef platter which was not as great. Overall, it was a great experience with great food and atmosphere! Strongly recommended! [Read less]
I wanted to love this place, as a spanish food lover, however, from the moment we walked in, we were rushed. I had not even taken off my jacket before being asked what starters I wanted...

It was so bland... I was not happy. However, the very large specialty drink eased my feelings :) I will maybe give Bongo's another shot in a few years but their Service sucks! [Read less]
the waiters might not always be the best. But, I think the food is fantastic. It always hits the spot.
