Disney California Adventure Lucky Fortune Cookery Review

Lucky Fortune Cookery is a quick service restaurant in Disney California Adventure, which is a part of Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California. In this post we’ll take a look at this dining location’s menu which is inspired by Big Hero 6 and features Asian fast food staples such as rice bowls, udon, karaage chicken, and boba drinks.

Noodles, boba, and a dessert. Now that’s a balanced meal.

Starting off with the San Fransokyo Noodle Stir-fry with Karaage-inspired Crispy Chicken, which includes fried tofu, broccoli, mushrooms, sesame oil and soy sauce. This item replaced a similar entree that included delicious udon noodles. Unfortunately the current version is a bit of a downgrade, but it’s still decent.  The downside of this dish? It’s an eye-watering $18.99. That’s a lot for a quick service meal. You can get this dish without the chicken for “only” $14.99.

Another entree available with the same karaage chicken from the udon is this Karaage-inspired Crispy Chicken Sandwich ($15.79). It’s served with with slaw, togarashi mayonnaise on a potato bun, and served with garlic chips. The highlight of this entree is the togarashi mayonnaise, which was delicious. If you’re not aware, togarashi is a Japanese mixed chili pepper condiment that you’ll find on the table at many Japanese restaurants. If that sounds too exotic for you I advise you to try it! It’s not that different from many spices we use here in the USA, and you may find something new you like. This karaage chicken sandwich is vastly better than any other chicken sandwich you’ll find in Disneyland Resort.

Here’s the Beef Birria Ramen for $15.99. I know this dish has its fans but there’s so much good ramen in LA and Orange County that it’s hard to recommended it. I’m not a ramen snob by any means, but I found the noodles to be quite rubbery. The birria is good, but the serving of it is too small for the asking price.

The other item on the menu which are not pictured in this article is Teriyaki Chicken with sautéed vegetables and steamed rice for $12.99. it’s totally fine but a bit on the boring side.

For dessert there’s this adorable Matcha-Raspberry Baymax Macaron for $7.79. It’s filled with raspberry gelée and matcha buttercream and is decent in size. I’d recommend passing on this one since there are much more exciting desserts in DCA, such as the ice cream creations at Clarabelle’s or the seasonal bread pudding at Aunt Cass Cafe.

I’m happy to report that Disneyland Resort has finally figured out a way to make a excellent boba drink. In the past Disney’s boba drinks have been either too sweet with not enough flavor, or have included some of the worst boba balls on earth. Not anymore, the boba in the Thai Tea with Sea Salt Cream and Brown Sugar Boba is soft and perfectly chewy. I’m a bit of a boba fanatic and I indulge in a cup at least once a week, so to finally have a delicious boba drink in the park is great news. The price is a bit high at $8.29.

Seating is available in an outdoor area in front of and around the restaurant. San Fransokyo Square is a popular dining area of the park so seating can get snapped up quick during prime dining hours.

Overall we enjoy some of the items on the menu at Lucky Fortune Cookery. If you’re in the mood for Asian-inspired dishes then you can’t go wrong here.
