180518 Kings Island Coney Bar-B-Que

Kings Island’s new executive chef Joseph Perez has quickly taken over the helm of the park and started to help shape the landscape to make the food scene his own.

One of the cool thing Chef Perez has implemented is new monthly specials all around the park. This is so terrific for guests that visit quite often. Some of the menu items could get monotonous and getting the option to try different entrees and sides is a very exciting means of keeping guests returning to the park.

Lets take a look at the July 2023 chef specials.
