Plaza de Coco Menu on Disney Treasure: Full La Familia Dinner Menu

Plaza de Coco is one of the signature rotational dining experiences aboard the Disney Treasure, bringing the world of Disney and Pixar’s Coco to life through Mexican-inspired food, colorful theming, music, and live entertainment. Unlike a traditional cruise ship dining room, Plaza de Coco combines dinner with an original theatrical experience centered around Miguel and the Rivera family.

Disney Cruise Line offers two distinct Plaza de Coco dining experiences aboard Disney Treasure. The menu shown in the photos below is the La Familia menu, featuring a wide selection of small plates, entrées, lighter options, and desserts.

What Is Plaza de Coco on Disney Treasure?

Plaza de Coco is a main rotational dining restaurant exclusive to the Disney Treasure. It is Disney Cruise Line’s first theatrical dining experience inspired by Coco.

The restaurant is designed around the fictional Mexican town of Santa Cecilia. Guests enter through an environment inspired by the Rivera family’s shoemaking history before reaching a colorful dining space centered around Mariachi Plaza.

The experience goes beyond restaurant theming. Live performers, music, and characters are incorporated into dinner, with the story continuing beyond the events of the Coco film.

Because Disney Treasure uses rotational dining, guests rotate among the ship’s main dining restaurants while their assigned serving team travels with them from restaurant to restaurant. Plaza de Coco is one of those included main dining experiences.

Two Different Plaza de Coco Experiences

One important thing to know when researching the Disney Treasure restaurants is that Plaza de Coco has two distinct evenings of entertainment rather than simply repeating the same experience.

The first experience celebrates the Rivera family and its musical heritage in Mariachi Plaza. The second is centered around Día de los Muertos and features a different storyline.

The photos in this guide show the La Familia menu. Since the second Plaza de Coco experience has a different menu, cruisers should not assume that these dishes represent everything served during both visits.

Plaza de Coco Small Plates

The first interior page of the menu is presented as the Rivera Family Tree, with the small plates arranged like branches of the family.

The small-plate selections shown on this menu are:

• Goat Cheese, Yellow and Red Beet Tower – Almond crumble and chive-honey dressing.
• Elena Rivera’s Shrimp Diabla – Sautéed garlic shrimp, sliced fingerling potatoes, mild chili-chipotle sauce, cilantro, pickled red onion, and toasted birotes.
• Toasted Pumpkin Seed, Garbanzo Bean Hummus – Pumpkin seed, garbanzo bean, orange, lime, roasted garlic, cucumber, jicama, and bolillos.
• Chorizo Street Croquettes – Chili-lime crema, roasted corn, cotija cheese, and cilantro.
• Red and Green Lentil Soup – Paprika-spiced sausage, carrots, and fire-roasted tomatoes.
• Chicken Tortilla Soup – Pulled red chili chicken, cut corn, black beans, red bell pepper, cilantro, queso fresco, and crisp spinach tortilla.
• Baby Gem Salad – Little gem lettuce, cherry tomatoes, roasted corn, lime pepitas, cotija cheese, and creamy cumin-avocado dressing.
• Cucumber and Queso Fresco Salad – Pickled red onions, serrano chili, lime, cilantro, baby oakleaf, and lollo rosso.
• Fried Tortillas and Salsa Roja.

There is quite a bit of variety before you even reach the main course. Guests looking for something lighter have salads and vegetable-focused choices, while the shrimp diabla, chorizo croquettes, lentil soup, and chicken tortilla soup offer heartier options.

The menu also identifies several dietary designations. Disney notes directly on the menu that guests with allergies or intolerances should speak with a member of the serving team.

Plaza de Coco Entrées

The main entrée page continues the Rivera family-tree presentation.

The entrées pictured on this Plaza de Coco menu are:

• Gemelli Pasta – Roasted sun-dried tomato, baby spinach, rigged basil, lemon zest, black pepper, burrata cheese, and olive oil.
• Red Capsicum and Green Parsley Grilled Snapper – Fried yucca, refried beans, spinach, and pico de gallo.
• Tía Rosita’s Pollo Asado – Michoacán citrus-spiced roasted chicken, cilantro rice, toasted serrano-tomatillo salsa.
• Pasilla-Brown Sugar Rubbed Roasted Pork Tenderloin – Whipped boniato, chard, crisp taco chips, and pasilla-maple jus.
• Grilled Grain-Fed Sirloin Steak – Oven-baked potato and asparagus.
• Butternut Squash Enchilada – Pinto bean, baby spinach, Chihuahua cheese, roasted corn, and red guajillo chile sauce.
• Tía Victoria’s Plant-Based Tacos – Wild mushrooms, chiles toreados, apple-chayote slaw, cashew crema, pico de gallo, and soft corn tortillas.
• Julio’s Port Wine-Braised Center Cut Beef Short Rib – Cheddar cheese, green onion red skin mash, long green beans, and crisp shallots.
• Mesquite-Spiced Salmon Salad – Iceberg, radicchio, arugula, roasted corn, grape tomatoes, cucumber, crisp tortilla, goat cheese, avocado, black beans, and lime-cilantro ranch dressing.

The selection covers seafood, beef, pork, chicken, pasta, and plant-based dishes, making Plaza de Coco considerably broader than a restaurant focused on only a few Mexican-inspired staples.

For cruisers researching Disney Treasure dining before sailing, the menu also shows that guests who prefer a relatively straightforward steak can choose the grilled sirloin rather than one of the more elaborate themed entrées.

Vegetarian and Plant-Based Choices

There are several meat-free options visible on the menu.

The Toasted Pumpkin Seed, Garbanzo Bean Hummus and Baby Gem Salad are marked as made without animal meat, dairy, eggs, and honey. The Tía Victoria’s Plant-Based Tacos carry the same designation.

Vegetarian symbols also appear beside several dishes, including the Goat Cheese, Yellow and Red Beet Tower, Cucumber and Queso Fresco Salad, Butternut Squash Enchilada, and Gemelli Pasta.

Anyone traveling with dietary restrictions should still confirm current ingredients and preparation procedures with Disney Cruise Line onboard, particularly because menus and preparation methods can change.

Plaza de Coco Desserts

Dessert continues the family-inspired presentation, with five choices visible on this menu:

• Margarita Lime Cheesecake – Sea salt shortbread and raspberry-agave margarita coulis.
• Warm Coconut Tres Leches – Three milk-soaked coconut cake, caramel sauce, and dulce de leche ice cream.
• Mexican Chocolate Tart – Spiced chocolate crème, caramel pecan nuts, and chocolate glaze.
• Miguel’s “Remember Me” Sundae – Cookies ’n cream ice cream, chocolate sandwich cookies, chocolate fudge sauce, and whipped cream.
• No Sugar Added Mamá Coco’s Coffee Crème – Ladyfingers, Kahlua espresso, and mascarpone cheese.

The dessert section continues the Coco references without limiting every choice to character theming. Guests can choose among cheesecake, cake, chocolate, ice cream, and a no-sugar-added coffee dessert.

The Warm Coconut Tres Leches is particularly representative of the Mexican-inspired direction of the menu, while Miguel’s “Remember Me” Sundae is the most immediately recognizable character-themed option shown.

How Plaza de Coco Fits Into Disney Treasure Rotational Dining

Plaza de Coco is part of Disney Cruise Line’s rotational dining system on Disney Treasure.

Instead of choosing a different main dining restaurant and making a reservation every night, guests receive a dining rotation. Your serving team follows your party throughout the rotation, so you keep the same servers even as the restaurant changes.

That makes Plaza de Coco part restaurant and part scheduled onboard entertainment. It is worth checking the Disney Cruise Line Navigator app and your dining schedule once onboard so you know which restaurant is assigned each evening.

For anyone building a Disney Treasure daily program or trying to coordinate onboard activities, entertainment, and dinner, your assigned dining time is an important part of the evening schedule.

Is Plaza de Coco Included in the Cruise Fare?

Plaza de Coco is one of Disney Treasure’s main rotational dining restaurants, so the standard dining experience is included with the cruise.

Certain beverages and other separately priced items may carry an additional charge. Always check the current onboard menu for pricing before ordering anything not included with standard rotational dining.

Tips for Dining at Plaza de Coco

Plaza de Coco is designed as an entertainment experience as well as a meal, so it is worth treating the evening differently from a quick dinner elsewhere on the ship.

• Arrive on time so you do not miss the beginning of the entertainment.
• Check your dining assignment in the Disney Cruise Line Navigator app.
• Remember that Plaza de Coco has two distinct dining experiences, so your second visit may not have the same menu or entertainment.
• Tell your serving team about food allergies or dietary restrictions rather than relying only on menu symbols.
• Give yourself time to look around the restaurant, since the design contains references to Coco and the Rivera family.
• If there is a particular dish you want to try, check the current onboard menu because cruise ship menus can change.

Final Thoughts on the Plaza de Coco Menu

Plaza de Coco is much more than a themed dining room on Disney Treasure. Disney has built the restaurant around the Rivera family, Mexican-inspired cuisine, live music, and an ongoing story that makes dinner part of the ship’s entertainment.

The La Familia menu shown here offers an unusually broad range of choices. There are adventurous dishes such as shrimp diabla and mesquite-spiced salmon salad alongside familiar options such as grilled sirloin steak, pasta, chicken, and an ice cream sundae. Vegetarian and plant-based selections are also clearly represented.

For anyone planning a Disney Treasure cruise and researching restaurants before sailing, Plaza de Coco is one dining experience worth understanding in advance. Check your rotational dining schedule once onboard, arrive in time for the entertainment, and remember that this menu represents only one of the restaurant’s two distinct experiences.

With the combination of food, storytelling, music, and detailed Coco theming, Plaza de Coco turns one of the standard dinners included with a Disney Treasure cruise into a full evening experience.
