The Turf Club Bar and Grill reopens Wednesday, September 30, at Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa, and Disney has released the full menu for its return. Slow-roasted prime rib stays on as the headliner, joined by new plant-based dishes and a cocktail list built around horse racing.
The restaurant has been closed for refurbishment since late August. Dinner hours are 4:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. The dining room is themed to turn-of-the-century Upstate New York horse racing, with vintage equestrian memorabilia and views of the golf course, Lake Buena Vista and Disney Springs.
Appetizers And Entrees
Appetizers include French onion soup with sherry beef broth, fontina and Gruyère, crispy chicken wings with buffalo or garlic-Parmesan sauce, a wedge salad with bacon and buttermilk-chive ranch, golden-fried calamari with shishito peppers, lemon butter shrimp with feta and capers, and plant-based sweet-and-spicy Brussels sprouts with an agave glaze.
The prime rib comes with a baked potato, seasonal vegetables, au jus and horseradish sauce. The other entrees are a smoked salmon-wrapped halibut over seasonal risotto, braised pork shank with New York cheddar grits and a bacon-bourbon glaze, a char-grilled butcher’s steak with roasted garlic mashed potatoes, a Turf Club burger with applewood-smoked bacon and New York white cheddar, corn flake-breaded fried chicken and waffle with roasted jalapeño maple syrup, pappardelle shrimp pasta with truffle sauce, and a plant-based spinach and mushroom linguini with basil-tofu “ricotta.”
Desserts
Four desserts round out the menu: a chocolate-hazelnut cake with hazelnut mousse and berry sauce, a vanilla bean cheesecake with strawberry sauce and graham crumb, a salted caramel pot de crème with vanilla bean panna cotta and pecan crunch, and a plant-based apple tart with caramel sauce and streusel.
Cocktails With A Racing Theme
The Saratoga Cocktail mixes Michter’s Single Barrel Rye Whiskey, Courvoisier VS Cognac, Carpano Antica sweet vermouth and bitters. The Winner’s Circle Margarita pairs Don Julio Reposado with Grand Marnier, and the Grandstand Martini uses Grey Goose with blue cheese olives. A New York Old Fashioned, New York Sour, Mint Julep, Pineapple Mule, Blood Orange Margarita and a raspberry Piña CoLAVA are also on the list, along with chocolate and espresso martinis for dessert.
Two non-alcoholic specialties are available: the Enchanted Grove Lime Splash with cucumber and mint, and the Enchanting Ember Lemonade with strawberry and hot honey. Coffee is from Joffrey’s, including a Peru press pot.
