Try the party melt at Carnation. The burger place at DTD isn’t bad either after you send it back and they recook it right haha.

I’ve had some amazing this-can’t-be-theme-park-food quick burgers at Dollywood and IoA (Wimpy’s). It can be done!I wouldn't expect anything different than a standard theme park burger in a theme park quick service burger location, even at Disneyland.

I stand corrected. I didn’t think of the patty melt (I somehow missed your post) at Carnation — it’s not bad. And my burger at Black Tap was excellent, despite the questionable vibe in the outdoor seating area.
More accurately, I’ll say this: I’ve never had a decent quick-service burger at the Disneyland resort.

Having worked quick service at one point during my days at an amusement park, I know its possible. But its also pretty standard given the cooking methods for mass produced food for it to be fairly standard tasting across the board.I’ve had some amazing this-can’t-be-theme-park-food quick burgers at Dollywood and IoA (Wimpy’s).

Yeah those are the only two burgers I’d have confidence in recommending at the resort. I can’t assume someone will be in the same mood as me or set expectations accordingly and enjoy the galactic grill burger

I guess it depends on how you like your burger, personally I like mine more medium-rare/medium myself which is harder in a theme park setting.
Yeah haha that’s not happening at any quick service theme park restaurant.

Even most sit down places don't really want to do medium-rare these days, for fear of food poisoning. So it ends up coming out more medium almost medium-well.
Some food at DLR that I think exceeds typical theme park food expectations…
That new garlic cheesy bread
Patty Melt at Carnation
Plaza Inn fried chicken
Egg rolls at Tropical Hideaway (RIP)
Bengal BBQ - sometimes. Beef is hit and miss chewy.
Most everything at Cafe Orleans especially gumbo
Seasonal Fried fish sandwich at Hungry Bear
Ronto Wraps and Vegan Ronto wraps - can be hit n miss though.
Corn Dogs- Also hit n miss - batter is too spongey and not crunchy sometimes
Birria Tacos at DCA
Sweet n Spicy seasonal Halloween tenders at Flo’s
Steak Fries at Flo’s
Just a few off the top of my head. There’s more.

I always seem to hear this place is a favorite, but on the odd occasion I go it doesn't do much for me. I'm suspicious I've missed something. What should I be ordering there?

Karaage Fried Chicken Sandwich & Beef Bulgogi were both excellent at Lucky Fortune Cookery.
Probably not. It smells better than it tastes. Rarely get the beef as it’s chewier more often than it’s good. The chicken skewers are consistent though. I think in the 80s/90s Bengal BBQ was a real novelty in the theme park space and has held a special place in our hearts since. Again, the aroma is great as is its location which I’m sure has a lot to do with it.

I had the burger at Centrico in August, it was delicious. It came with a truffle sauce that was so good.

I had the steak burrito at Tiendita in June, it was fantastic!

I was personally quite obsessed with the bao buns at Tropical Hideaway. I had several throughout my trip.

Oh, are they actually going to finally do this, or just speculation … ?

I don't think so. This short from Fresh Baked has a view from the AstroOrbiter. It looks like the "forever walls" at the TL entrance area are separate from the Pixie Hollow walls. Man, I hope I'm wrong.

The pond looks drained, so maybe that's the focus of the work.
