Bengal Barbecue is a great spot to stop for a snack for a few reasons:
Their pork belly skewer is BOMB! And you can make it a meal by ordering the Bengal Rice Plate which comes with jasmine rice, slaw, pickled veggies and your choice of 2 skewers. (*We usually get this plate with 2 pork belly skewers, then we split it) It's delicious!
Don't pass on the bacon and asparagus Safari Skewer - they are so good! Sometimes we'll even just order one to snack on if we're walking past Bengal BBQ.
They have a great covered dining area to eat in - the challenge usually is finding a table - but we've always been pretty lucky and have gotten a table. And they have a couple of cast members walking around cleaning tables when they become available, which is real nice.
If you need to charge your phone or electronics, they have an available electrical plug -- we noticed people are very aware of this outlet because they would bop in to plug in their phones.
I ordered their Jungle Julep which was a fruity slush. In my opinion, it was just OK. The slush was a little too chunky for me - it's not like a slurpee - the ice bits are bigger. I probably wouldn't order this one again. Maybe next time I'll get a Dole whip float or maybe check out some of the cold drinks at The Tropical Hideaway.
I definitely recommend that you try the pork belly skewer and the bacon...
Read moreHands-down my favorite place to eat in Disneyland is The Bengal Barbecue, located in Adventureland, across from the Indiana Jones Adventure!
Disneyland calls it a "quick-service eatery," however it's anything but. The lines here have always been crazy long, so preordering on the app is highly recommended for this place.
There's also no seating, unless you count the few tables in which you stand under an umbrella to eat. We got a nice, shaded table in front of the Rivers of America, around where the Haunted Mansion is.
Presentation on some of the items leaves a lot to be desired. 😂 But trust— they're all delicious regardless of plating!
I have a bit of a sweet tooth, so the Chieftain Chicken is my go-to every time. You can order the skewers a la carte or as a Bengal Rice Plate. The rice plate will come your choice of two skewers, a scoop a Jasmine rice and a side of Citrus-Miso Coleslaw.
I consider these single portions more snack-sized than a meal, so if you're looking to be full, order a little more. Better to be safe than sorry as you don't want to get caught up having to wait in...

If you are familiar with Bengal, couple of new menu items... They now have a a Korean BBQ pork belly skewer. I liked it, but the sauce was a little bit sweet side so maybe get that on the side. Also a new berry smoothy. Didn't try that but on a hot day would be great.
They have also created new air conditioned seating for Bengal, having repurposed some of the retail space that used to be on the right as you are facing the restaurant. Very welcome addition as seating had been a challenge up until now.
One final tip... Ask for wetnaps, eating Bengal can be a a...
