New Disney Springs Restaurant Openings Delayed

Disney Springs Restaurant Openings, Planet Hollywood Observatory Reservations

Planet Hollywood Observatory Outside

What’s going on with Paddlefish and Planet Hollywood Observatory?  When will the new Disney Springs restaurants open?  That’s the question everyone wants to know.  On the first of the year they both will have been closed for 1 year.  It was looking promising for a while that they would be able to meet their optimistic opening dates of Fall 2016, Now it’s clear that won’t be happening and the new Disney Springs restaurant openings have been delayed.

How long though?

The Orlando Sentinel is saying Paddlefish won’t be until at least January 2017 and Planet Hollywood Observatory won’t make its date of Christmas like it hoped.

While they won’t be open this year, when they do however they both look amazing!!  Paddlefish is a completely redesigned version of the old Fulton’s Crab house and everything is getting an upgrade: the interior, the menu and even the Boat itself!  Check out some of the delicious menu offerings coming to Paddlefish!

Planet Hollywood is also getting a complete makeover with a new exterior, a brand new Stargazers Lounge and a total menu overhaul as well.  Everything looks awesome, especially the Bacon Mac n’ Cheese Burger! Mmmmm

I’ll let you know when the opening dates are as soon as I hear!

Yeah I know, me too!! You'll love Morimoto's, I just went there recently, I'm working on a review at the moment so watch for it soon. You'll have to tell me how the new Flying Fish is since I still haven't been. The others you'll love as they are all great!
