Hidden away in the corner of Fantasyland, you’ll find the Red Rose Taverne. This quaint restaurant boasts a Beauty and the Beast theme that’s nothing short of magical. It’s the perfect place for a fairytale-inspired meal. With ample indoor and outdoor seating, you never have to worry about getting a table. Try the Beast’s Pastrami Burger or the Slow Cooked beef poutine. They also have salads and flatbread pizza. Kids will love the burgers, chicken nuggets, and pizza from the kids menu. Don’t miss the Pommes Frites(garlic fries). They’re incredible! Save room for dessert. You mush try the Grey Stuff(it’s delicious!). White chocolate mousse and red velvet cake with a raspberry center.

The Royal Street Veranda offers delicious soup in a Sourdough Bread Bowl! Enjoy your meal on the patio under a beautiful wrought-iron balcony. You can choose from Clam Chowder, Steak Gumbo(my favorite!), or Vegetable Gumbo. This is a nice place to grab a coffee or hot chocolate on a chilly day. They also have fountain beverages!

This restaurant is out of this world! Be prepared for lots of unfamiliar, but delicious choices! The Smoked Kaadu Pork Ribs are incredible! I also like the Endorian Fried Chicken Tip Yip. They have a plant based option as well as some salad choices. Kids will like the Takodana veggie dippers or the chicken Tip Yip Youngling meal. Check out their array of specialty drinks while you’re there. The Moof Juice is pretty tasty! It’s a great place to eat while embracing your Star Wars side!
7. Bengal Barbeque

Enjoy this old-timey saloon style restaurant that’s been around since the opening day of Disneyland. Enjoy loaded potato skins, Chicken Wings or Pepper Jack Mac.

If you time your meal right, you’ll be able to catch one of the stage shows. They also have tons of seating on the main floor and in the balcony. This is one of the best places to take a break with some delicious food!

4. Plaza Inn
Location: Main Street U.S.A
Food Type: American Cuisine
Mobile Ordering: No
Price: $$ ($15.99 and up per adult)
Homestyle dining in a Victorian setting. Designer Lillian Disney, Walt’s wife, handpicked many of the restaurant’s authentic 19th-century interior furnishings. This was one of Walt’s favorite places to dine. You can eat in the grand dining room or on the spacious patio. If you’re eating here, you really must try the Chicken. This delicious dish features 3 pieces of herb-seasoned fried chicken served with mashed potatoes, mixed vegetables, and a buttermilk biscuit. It’s a park classic!

You’ll feel like you’re enjoying your meal in “The Big Easy” while you’re eating under the shady trees. The signature Po’Boys are tasty and the Gumbo is world famous!

2. Jolly Holiday Bakery Cafe
Location: Main Street U.S.A
Food Type: Bakery Cuisine
Mobile Ordering: Yes
Price: $ ($14.99 and under per adult)
This charming, Mary Poppins themed Cafe is a park favorite! They have delicious bakery items that are to die for! Make sure you visit early. Seasonal favorites and the Matterhorn Macaroon can sell our early in the day. The Jolly Holiday Combo that includes a Toasted Cheese Sandwich with Tomato Basil Soup is my favorite! Kids will love the Turkey Sandwich or Macaroni and Cheese. There is plenty of out door seating, but it does get crowded around lunch time.
1. Rancho Del Zocalo Restaurante
Location: Frontierland
Food Type: Mexican Cuisine
Mobile Ordering: No
Price: $ ($14.99 and under per adult)
Rancho Del Zocalo Restaurante is my favorite quick-service restaurant in Disneyland! So, it snagged the number one spot on the Very Best Disneyland Quick Service Restaurants list. The soothing fountains, adobe archways and hanging plants adorn this peaceful Spanish-style oasis. With plenty of outdoor seating, you never have to fight for a table. In the evening, star-shaped glass lanterns enhance the atmosphere. Not only is the atmosphere incredible, but the food is also great too! I love the Trio of Street Tacos or the Burrito Sonora with Beef. The Crispy Chips con Limon with Salsa is the perfect complement to any meal. Kids will love the Chicken Tacos or the Bean and Cheese Burrito. Make sure you finish your meal with a bag of the Cinnamon Crisps or take a bag to go. They are amazing!
