Frontera Cocina To Go Counter -- Dinner -- Quick Service -- Disney Springs

*This dining experience took place in July 2016.Frontera Cocina To Go MenuFrontera Cocina is one of Disney Springs newest restaurant offerings, and while I love this table service restaurant, I absolutely love that they have a to go counter. I'm such a huge Mexican food lover that getting tacos to go is pretty much my favorite thing ever.I previously stopped by the to go counter and grabbed chips and guacamole along with margaritas with my friend Ron, and on this visit, I knew I wanted to grab dinner. Thankfully, everything at Frontera Cocina is marked with allergens, so I knew that I was in good shape for getting a great gluten free and dairy free meal.Conchinita Pibil Tacos at Frontera CocinaI decided to order the Cochinita Pibil Tacos, which is made up of achiote braised pork shoulder, pickled red onions, and served with habanero salsa. I confirmed with the culinary team that this was both gluten free & dairy free upon ordering.I have to say that I really enjoyed these tacos -- so much so that I basically scarfed them down in half the time it took Brandon to eat his poutine from the Daily Poutine.I love the warm corn tortillas and the braised pork was slow roasted and tender. The pickled red onion was a highlight adding a bit of a tangy and tart flavor to the dish, along with some texture. Fresh cilantro was perfect on top.As a salsa warning, I was asked if I wanted the habanero salsa and was told it was VERY spicy. I opted for the chipotle salsa, which I was told was milder but still quite spicy. I love spice, and the chipotle was well beyond my spice level. I dipped a small bit of my taco into and had to drink a ton of water after eating it. Brandon even said my face was bright red. So as far as spice, proceed with caution on the salsa! The taco itself wasn't very spicy, but very flavorful.Overall, I loved these tacos, and I can't wait to go back again. I love that I can grab these for a tasty and quick dinner and that everything is so gluten free friendly. Frontera Cocina is definitely high on my quick service list now at Disney Springs!Have you been to Frontera Cocina? What did you enjoy when you visited there?
