Don’t be scared — we promise these monsters are friendly! Disney’s Hollywood Studios will soon be home to the lovable monsters from Monsters. Inc.! Humans can visit Monstropolis soon, as the land will open in phases starting in 2027. 

Disney previously shared that this new land will be home to multiple eateries, including the iconic Harryhausen’s from the original movie, along with Archie’s Scare Pig Pizza, but we didn’t have many more details — until now. Disney recently shared a first look at the food coming to these eateries, and let’s just say, the internet had a LOT to say about it!

In a shocking turn of events, most of the feedback about this first look at Monstropolis food was actually pretty positive. Disney Adults can be a passionate bunch, and that often means strong opinions about every single new announcement Disney makes. As it turns out, though, people seem pretty darn excited about the food coming to Harryhausen’s and Archie’s Scare Pig Pizza!

One person on Instagram said, “Not only do I love sushi, but the fun RAMEN looks like it will be soooooo good and creative!!!!!!! ,” and another said, “Omg this looks AMAZING!! Catch me rope dropping all this food.”

Others agreed, saying, “Amazing job, team,” and “Can’t wait to try the Blort!!!”

Another comment said, “Ramen in Hollywood Studios??? YES PLEASE,” while one person said, “The Harryhausen’s references are exactly the kind of detail that makes a land feel like stepping into the movie.”

It definitely seems like people are excited about this land, and now, they’re even more excited about the food!

Of course, there were some negative comments as well. One person said, “Menu looks mid if that’s the whole menu,” while another said, “More trash food.” Pretty strong opinions!

Others lamented that Harryhausen’s doesn’t appear to be a true sushi restaurant like the namesake from the movie, though it’s possible that there still could be sushi on the menu, since the full list hasn’t been revealed yet.

One comment said, “…that food does not look appealing at all. It looks bland just from a photo.”

Disney shared that these restaurants will feature “grossly fun” food: familiar flavors reimagined with monster-inspired twists. At Harryhausen’s, some of the menu items the team is exploring include ramen bowls inspired by traditional Japanese flavors, but with “monster-sized personality.” The dishes will feature familiar, classic ingredients like rich tonkotsu broth and alkaline ramen noodles, plus others with monster twists like fishcake sliced to look like eyeballs and green eggs!

Over at Archie’s Scare Pig Pizza, the vibes are all about Monsters University, and this quick-service restaurant will feel like a beloved pizza spot where generations of monster college students gathered with friends after class.

Not only that, but a staple from the franchise will make its debut at this spot: Blort. Blort is one of the most popular soft drinks in all of Monstropolis, but this will be the first time any human has ever tasted it! Expect to see something like a purple frozen spin on the soda topped with a Scream Apple Foam that’s so tasty, it’s scary.

We’ll be on the lookout for even more updates from Monstropolis at Disney World. In the meantime, make sure you stay tuned to the Disney Food Blog for the latest Disney news, and check out our video on Hollywood Studios below!
