Abaco Taco is the latest complimentary dining option added to Great Stirrup Cay-the private island for Norwegian cruisers. I was really excited to try this new island spot as it is a unique option to the buffet lunch Norwegian provides. Situated just a short walk from the tequila bar Abaco Taco was open 11:30-2:15. The options for taco types were chicken, beef and fish. The tacos were soft shelled and prepared ahead of time in paper serving vessels- sans toppings. There is a topping bar to fill your soft tortilla taco up as much as you'd like! The meat in all three variations was on the spicier side-but I really enjoyed toning it down with toppings of guacamole and sour cream. For those of you who are non meat eaters have no fear- I asked the staff what a vegetarian guest would do. They informed me that anyone can ask for a plain flour tortilla and fill it up with toppings-which are hearty in nature. Those folks who are gluten free just need to ask for a bowl of their desired protein and they can top their meat or fish! Here is the beef taco option-
Here is the chicken taco option-
And here is the fish taco option-
The meats/fish are cooked in a sauce, so the taco is rather wet inside. The toppings bar consists of lettuce, onions, a yummy corn salsa that is filling and tasty, jalapeno peppers, red cabbage slaw (for the fish tacos), sour cream, salsa and guacamole.Here is a photo-
The only odd thing about the topping bar was there was no cheese! I asked and was told there was not a cheese option but many cruisers had inquired on past visits to GSC. It was certainly delicious without the cheese but the lack of it is surprising.
Drinks were offered as well-sodas, beer, wine and water-which were all part of the UBP package. Bottled drinks such as Powerade could be purchased with your sign and sail card as well.
The addition of this small but flavorful lunch spot is a wonderful addition to the food on GSC. The island is beautiful like always and has been receiving lots of upgrades-like Abaco Taco! 😃🌮 Enjoy these tacos on your next visit to Great Stirrup Cay!
