    Second time getting a meal for one of my teens. The Hungry Bear has a great theme. It's got a great view of the river. There's so much seating. But the food leaves something to be desired. The presentation is awful. The portions are small. They do have barbecue sauce to hide the bland food. Overall this is not my favorite place at Disneyland to eat.

    Wonderful place to recharge and rest. Lots of tables and chairs with "Fixin's" located throughout the outdoor restaurant. Restrooms are on the lower level. Upper Level has the counters. Use Mobile Ordering ahead of time. Food is typical Disneyland fare. On Star Wars Nite the pork belly sandwich was a hit with my daughter. Definitely a return visit call!!!

    I love BBQ so we had to try this place. It was packed and the line was long. They had mobile ordering so I had my wife do the ordering and i Looked for a table to sit at. I found one down the way and in the shade. I waisted for my wife to bring the food. The place was really clean and had several staff going around cleaning the tables. Really friendly and nice. The wife was taking awhile so I called her. The mobile app would of been great and I had hoped it would skip the line but those orders would of been if we had planned ahead. The food would be ready in 20 minutes or longer so she had to get in the long line to order from the counter. The staff moved the line pretty fast. I got the combo plate which had brisket and pork ribs. It came with fries and some pickled veggies. The fries had some spices on it and were nice and crunchy. I enjoyed it a lot. the brisket was juicy and flavorful. The pork had great flavor and off the bone quick. I loved it all. I would get it all again.

    One of the best places to dine at Disneyland. Tucked away near Tiana's bayou and the Pooh ride is the Hungry Bear. Portions are always good and super flavorful. Ordered the BBQ combo with Fries, Coleslaw, Brisket, and Pulled pork. Portion was plentiful and food was on point. I do think this is one of the restaurants I go to the most at DLR. Platter and Burgers are usually fantastic. There's a lot of seating available which is nice and cast members are super sweet, keeping the area super clean and well maintained. Fast service so once you order, you just walk up to the counter and then you'll get your food. Definitely a recommended place to try.

    The Baseline: For a sit down Dining experience establishment the food flavors must represent the theme of the environment, there must be unique offerings to the restaurant based on the theme, and the experience must be immersive to the theme park experience. Food: We had the BBQ pulled pork sandwich which was great if you go to the bbq service stand to get the variety of sauces. I also love the corn rib platter that has the awesome corn goodness. Seasonal Snickerdoodle cold brew is really good and almost as good as the Black Caff from Docking Bay. Great dining experience for Disneyland. Service: Disneyland Cast equals great service. Atmosphere: I have a great view of Rovers of America. Great feeling and atmosphere for a bbq place at Disneyland.

    I was super hungry by this point. I only had junk all morning and afternoon. I like how there's a bathroom underneath the patio. I got the salad and it was the perfect amount of food. I enjoyed it! It wasn't filled with too much sauce. I also added the spicy barbecue sauce which made it even better. I just wish it had more corn. The service was super friendly. I sat on the balcony overlooking water. Tons of seating here it wasn't super packed at the time.

    Barbecue Pulled Pork Sandwich and Brisket Salad
    Dallas A.

    I've eaten at Hungry Bear a couple of times while visiting Disneyland now -- while it's on the expensive side considering all of the food options in the park, I would also argue that the portions of BBQ make up for that a bit, as I've left both times with my appetite satisfied. The BBQ pulled pork sandwich is a classic and hits the spot, especially when you can dip it in several different BBQ sauce flavors. The brisket is hit-or-miss -- I've had one experience where it was juicy and delectable, but on my latest salad, it was bit dry and extremely fatty. I also tried the peach cobbler funnel fries last time, and they were a highlight of my Disneyland trip; I'd highly recommend the funnel cake fries!

    One of my personal favorite places to dine at Disneyland! Great options for BBQ lovers and pretty good portion sizes for the price, especially at an amusement park. Service was okay; I placed a mobile order but half of my order was not ready when I arrived to pick it up. They were very quick to rectify this which I appreciated. It definitely has a very country vibe with great scenery and seating by the Rivers of America. I took away one star as sometimes the quality of the food can be inconsistent, specifically with the brisket being tough and chewy.

    Classic Cheeseburger
    Wesley W.

    Located in Frontier Land, this BBQ eatery is worth giving a try. It's order and pick up. The BBQ meats are decent, tender and tasty. The service was very good. There was an error in my order and Ivan who takes your receipt and organize your order quickly corrected it without question. Classic cheeseburger- 3.5/5 A nice burger to get if you're not in the mood for BBQ. The burger patty was tender, not over cooked or dry. You get a slice of American cheese, some chards of lettuce in a regular hamburger bun. It would be so much better if they added a slice of two tomatoes, and maybe some pickles. BBQ salad - 4.5/5 This was an excellent selection. You get to choose your meat (we selected brisket), with fresh lettuce, carrots and cucumbers. The dressing was spicy, but you can get ranch from the condiments kiosk instead. Overall, we would revisit Hungry Bear BBQ in the near future.

    Smoked Angus Beef Burger with Pulled Pork
    Vivi V.

    This has been my husband's favorite value restaurant at Disneyland CA for half decade now. They've been reliable with easy to find seating, mobile order/quick lines and large portion sizes, and hot food. Recently they're revamped the menu to add BBQ items and more BBQ flavor sauces. We had the Smoked Beef Brisket Sandwich and Smoked Angus Beef Burger with Pulled Pork and enjoyed both. Is it the best BBQ? No, but it's hot and tastes nice. The thick fries are crispy and nice. A solid choice for meals at Disneyland.

    Decent place to grab a bite, and the only fast casual with ample seating in that area (you either have to go back to New Orleans Square/Frontierland/Adventureland or make the trek into Star Wars land). There used to be some BBQ place but I guess they closed it awhile ago. I think it was called Big Thunder Ranch BBQ. I miss that. The options are fine, standard American BBQ fare. Very easy to get the things you need, condiments are plentiful, seating is too, bathrooms are conveniently downstairs.

    Kiddies' mom preordered on her Disney App. While she stood in line to pick up the order, the kiddies and I saved 2 tables in the far back corner of the eatery. When the food came my eyes deceived me. It looked small but it was just enough. The food tasted good. Usually I like Cole slaw but I offered it to hubs but he declined.

    Barbecue Salad, Smoked Barbecue Combo Platter, Banana Pudding
    Sammy B.

    This was our first time eating here since the menu changed to being more BBQ forward. I would say that the smoke BBQ combo platter is the best option because you get two choices of protein and then two sides, white bread, and pickles. I had the pulled pork and beef brisket + coleslaw and baked beans. I would give this platter a 4/5 for theme park food but it was veryyy expensive for the amount of food you get - $23 before your pass discount. My mom got the barbecue salad with beef brisket and a corn rib...she said she would not get this again. What I would 100% get again is the banana pudding! It was small and expensive but delicious. As always, cast member service is amazing and there was ample seating. Just don't know if the food is worth the price, there are other spots in Disney I would go to first!

    Do they have the churro funnel cakes? Which season do they have the churro funnel cakes?

    Unfortunately no. The churro funnel cake was a staple for awhile and was always served just like the traditional churro funnel cake when there isn't a seasonal special funnel cake.

    Is there free parking?

    It's inside Disneyland park so you have to pay for parking and a ticket to the park in order to eat here.

Looks like I was late to the game because they have been famous with articles from Eaters Magazine LA and The New York Times about Chef Winnie Yee, the Pit Madam. I think this is a new location they expanded to in the Cottage Industries newly developed area in Garden Grove. There is a small private lot off 9th street, but it's usually full, so you can find additional parking off 8th or 7th street nearby. I was helped by Swarna and she was so friendly, courteous and helpful. My boyfriend and I wanted to try a little bit of everything so we ordered 1/2 lb Brisket ($19), 1/2 lb Siu Yuk ($16), 1 Green Curry Sausage ($9), Mac and Cheese ($8), Tallow Fries ($8), and a Regular Fountain Drink ($3.50). We took the food togo, but everything tastes fresh and delicious. It did not affect the quality of the food. The one feedback I would like to give the restaurant is that it seems a bit stingy to only give us only one of each sauce when we ordered 3 meats. I didn't see this until we got home or I would have asked for more. It's hard to say which one was my favorite because both the brisket and the siu yuk were good. It was not only the flavor but the quality of the protein. The green sausage was a really nice fusion execution of a traditional American barbecue item. The sides were less exciting. I ate them and they were average but I don't feel like they live up to how great the proteins were. I would definitely order different sides the next time I come back. A great execution from Chef Winnie's Asian background in perfect harmony with American barbecue. I'll definitely be back!

It's part of what seems to be a growing entertainment/retail complex, with a boba shop already there and some other cool businesses forthcoming. There's also a massive outdoor patio with tons of seating and play areas, which makes this a great spot if you have kids. I appreciate that the meat comes without BBQ sauce. You can grab whatever sauces you want from the condiment station and add them yourself, which I much prefer over having the meat arrive drenched in sauce. Brisket -- 7/10 Unfortunately, my brisket that day was a little tougher than I would've liked. Maybe I just got a leaner cut and should've asked for something fattier? I'm not entirely sure, because I've seen their brisket on TikTok and the pieces literally look like they're falling apart. Green Curry Sausage -- 9/10 Phenomenal. Super flavourful and incredibly unique. The green curry flavour works surprisingly well with the sausage, and I wish I'd ordered another link. Beef Bone -- 8/10 I'll admit, I was gawking a little bit at the price when I ordered this. Then it came out and I immediately understood why. This thing is massive. The meat was really well cooked, flavourful, and had an excellent ratio of fat to actual meat. Beef Tallow Fries -- 9/10 Crinkle-cut fries with a noticeable beef tallow flavour. They had the perfect amount of crispiness without being greasy, and they were a fantastic addition to the meal. Sesame Slaw -- 9/10 Honestly, one of the better coleslaws I've had. Refreshing, acidic, savoury, and umami. It hits a lot of different notes and was actually a really nice contrast to all the rich BBQ.

Rarely checked on us throughout the meal, our grill was changed once, and never came by to offer drink refills. The food quality has also gone downhill. The rice cup portions are drastically smaller than they used to be, and the meat quality was poor. It feels like the restaurant's overall operation and standards have really declined. For the price, this experience was unacceptable, and unfortunately we won't be returning. I don't recommend it at all!!!!!!

    * Who: partner & I * What: random late lunch…read more* When: Saturday a little past noon * Why: hungry after apartment touring * Space/Decor: in a small plaza that had plenty of parking when we arrived. Average space in the sense it's rectangular & like any mom/pop hole in the wall. You step in, tables to your right going all the way back, & left front side has cash register, sweets display, & water dispenser while the rest of the left was the kitchen. Menu was straightforward but could benefit from having a description in case you're not familiar (like my BF). * Service: the reason I'm docking by 1 star. The lady was nice, but not very attentive, & it wasn't like it was busy. We needed to ask or follow up on 2-3 things. My BF was eyeing some dessert when we were first ordering but she didn't try to sell it to us ‍ * Food: surprisingly good as it was both our first time there. He got the adobo bowl & the chicken was tender/juicy & pretty much fell off the bone. I got the tocino plate & the meat was flavorful with just the right amount of garlic in the rice. We also got one chicken skewer & one pork skewer, which was a bit smaller than I'm used to but the smoky flavor & tenderness was spot on. My only issue was the portion compared to the price. * Final Thoughts: mom/pop Filipino food that is great on flavor but leaves something to be desired with customer service. Would recommend & will return again for the food. * Final Grade: B+ or 8.5/10
