Bright suns! We’re back at Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge for some new eats!
Earlier today, we learned that Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo unveiled new menu items, so we hopped over to Disney’s Hollywood Studios to try them out for ourselves!
Since it first opened in 2019, Docking Bay 7 has been known for unique, “out of this world” dishes, and this new lineup of entrees (plus one dessert) lived up to that reputation! But are these items worth ordering on your next visit? Let’s dive right in!
First up is the Batuuan Beef and Crispy Topato Stir-fry. This dish is Smoky Braised Beef glazed in Tamarind Sauce and served with Stir-fried Vegetables, Crispy Herbed Yucca, Pickled Onions, and Cilantro.
The Herbed Yucca were nice and crunchy, but the other veggies weren’t as memorable.
We think the Batuuan Beef may pair better with other sides from Docking Bay 7…and we put that theory to the test!

The macaroni and cheese is a GREAT side dish for any entree at Docking Bay 7, so if veggies aren’t your thing (we totally understand), you can request the mac & cheese instead! Regardless of which side you choose, the Batuuan Beef costs $19.99.
Next up is the Pirjanad Hot Chicken Tip Yip! This spicier dish is Crispy Chicken (think their Fried Endorian Chicken) glazed in a Spicy Chipotle Sauce and served with White Rice and a Relish of Sweet Corn, Shishito Peppers, Jicama, Plantains, and Cilantro.
We were actually surprised at how much heat this dish had! Typically, Disney World’s “spicier” dishes aren’t that spicy at all, but this one definitely had a decent kick to it!
The Blueberry Corn Muffin pairs wonderfully with the spiciness of the Hot Chicken!

We also ordered the Roasted Endorian Chicken Salad.
If you’re looking for something on the lighter side, this dish comes with Marinated Chicken, Mixed Greens, Shaved Onion and Radish, Grapes, Tomato, and Cucumber in a Lemon-Pomegranate Vinaigrette with Spiced Yogurt Drizzle.

If you’re looking for more options that are on the lighter side, you can try the Peka Tuna Poke!
This dish is Raw Tuna tossed in a Spicy Sriracha Dressing and served with Green Papaya Salad, Pickled Mushrooms, Fresh Herbs, and Crispy Garlic.
It almost goes without saying, but if you aren’t a tuna fan, you’ll want to steer clear of this dish. That said, this dish, like the Hot Chicken, has a decent amount of heat to it, so if you’re a spicy foods fan and you’re into raw fish, you may really enjoy the Poke! We had a hard time locating the garlic flavor in this dish, unfortunately. The Poke costs $17.99.

The dessert was actually our least favorite dish of the ones we ordered today! We found our pastry to be a bit on the stale side, but we enjoyed the other components of this dish.
