REVIEW: We Love Disney Chicken Tenders With a Passion… But These Were Interesting

[Charlie]

Sometimes, it’s the classic snacks that reign supreme. Yes, we love fancy dishes with perfect presentation, but sometimes a traditional cheeseburger is all you need during a day at Disneyland.

Chicken tender time!


We’re heading to Galactic Grill in Disneyland to get our hands on some chicken tenders!

​

We tried the Hawaiian Chicken Tenders & Fries for $14.49. These chicken tenders are tossed in a tangy Hawaiian-inspired BBQ sauce, garnished with green onions and served with fries.

Hawaiian Chicken Tenders And Fries


The smell of these was incredible! It reminded us of sweet Hawaiian teriyaki, but those flavors didn’t quite carry through to the taste. The sauce was on the salty side, and we were craving some sweetness.

Easy lunch


There was also a LOT of sauce. We think next time, we would ask for it on the side and dip it how we like. If you’re planning on Mobile Ordering like we did, you can’t get the sauce on the side, but you might be able to ask at the counter, and it can be up to the Cast Member’s discretion.

Inside


We’re not sure we would get these again, which really disappointed us! We love our fancy chicken tenders (okay, and basic chicken tenders, too), but the sauce just wasn’t where we hoped it would be. The tenders are the traditional tenders you can find all over Disneyland and Disney World, along with the classic fries. If you’re up for a more savory take, you might really enjoy this, but just note that it’s probably not as sweet as you might be looking for.
