Pym's Test Kitchen is usually my go-to for a quick bite and drink in DCA. It did started going downhill recently (2026) compared to 2022-2023. This is the perfect spot for a quick breakfast & lunch in DCA. They're located in Avengers Campus. Pym's Test Lab is the bar with fun alcoholic cocktails. Just like any other quick service, it can get extremely busy so mobile ordering ahead will be helpful. They only offer outdoor seating; no indoor seating. Finding an open seat can be a challenge on peak days. Cast members are quick & efficient, and they're on top of assisting with emptying trays. They offer American dishes that are Ant-Man themed, hence its name. The Calculated Breakfast is my favorite dish before starting the day. The Quantum Pretzel is my favorite thing to share. The Not-so-little Chicken Sandwich is my favorite dish bc the chicken is crispy & seasoned well. They offer seasonal dishes that can be a hit or miss. Skip the Spinach and Artichoke Grilled Cheese. Their seasonal cold brews are sweet. The alcohol at Pym's Test Lab is strong & sweet! I noticed portion sizes have gotten smaller with increased prices. I hate how greedy they've gotten. Smh. The food and drinks do the job. It's quick & efficient.

We've had lunch here multiple times and have always liked our meals, and decided to try breakfast here today. It's odd to me how few food spots serve breakfast (or even open before 10:30am) yet the parks are open so early. My husband had the chilequiles and said it the portion was good for the price, but the chips were a little soggy. The latter part was odd because we waited 5-10 for the food after it was preceded, so I thought we were getting a fresh batch. He paired it with a beermosa, which is what it sounds like. It's served in a plastic cup you can keep if you want to (a measuring cup with a spout, basically). I wasn't a fan of the drink - beer and OJ? Gross, lol. I had the egg/bacon/tots meal and liked everything. It came with this weird mini toast, which just tasted like white bread, yet the red circles in it were slightly sweet. My only critique is that the eggs are served on top of a piece of paper, so you'll want to eat those first or I suspect you'll get paper bits in your bites. With AP discount, everything was $39 after tax, which we thought was a great deal for a meal at the parks with decent portions.

I visited Pym Test Kitchen during LNY celebration at DCA mainly for their Spicy Pork Belly Grilled Cheese. It was my first time and this science lab theme restaurant really impressed me with their ambiance and decoration, love the Marvel and Ant-Man theme so much. I don't see any indoor seating but they do have a spacious patio with tables and chairs. The portion here is enormous, supersized food likes the pretzel or not so little chicken sandwich that is definitely sharable. The line was not so long but I did waited for a good 20 minutes before placing my order with the cast member - who was friendly and efficient but was only by herself at the moment. So, totally recommend place your order ahead of time through the app. Waiting time in line was quite long but my order was ready under 10 minutes, I got Spicy Pork Belly Grilled Cheese with Tator Tots and Proton Potation (Vodka, Lemonade and Grenadine with Cherry-flavored Popping Spheres) for drink. The grilled cheese was pretty good in flavor, it was savory and spicy, loaded with pork belly, but really really oily, I gave up after 2 bites. Meanwhile, the Tator Tots have a really nice crunchy texture to it, very crispy and tasty, I really like it. The Proton Potation was just okay, I personally doesn't feel there is a lot of alcohol in it but the cherry popping boba's taste was artificial. Should have asked for the straw or spoon because I ended up wasting 80% of the popping boba after I finished the drink. Overall, I really like the concept but my experience at Pym Test Kitchen for LNY special food item was just okay. It still a pretty cool spot to check it out and taste test their yummy Tator Tots!

Not so little chicken sandwich
Catherine Z.

We got the chicken sandwich and it was delicious! Definitely smaller than some of the photos we've seen online. Wonderfully seasoned and crispy, and the tater tots were delicious! There was a bit of a wait though so be prepared for that and to share tables with other groups on busy times

Chilaquiles
Kristen B.

We stopped at Pym Test Kitchen for breakfast while visiting Disney California Adventure. We tried the chilaquiles and the Calculated Breakfast. The chilaquiles were just okay. The chips were a bit soggy, which took away from the dish, although I did expect it wouldn't be super authentic. The eggs were good, and the pickled onions on top were actually really tasty and added nice flavor. The bacon was very thin and a little greasy. The Calculated Breakfast was good and we enjoyed it, but it wasn't anything overly exciting. Overall though, the service was nice and the ambiance is always fun and themed really well. We still love visiting California Adventure, and Pym Test Kitchen is a convenient and interesting place to stop while exploring the park.

Food: 3/5 Service: 3/5 Ambiance: 3/5 Portion to Price: 3/5 Overall: Pretty standard fare. The extended review... Food: Pork Belly Grilled Cheese : 3/5 - So this was a Lunar New Year special. I felt like the ratio of cheese to meat was off. It was more meat so the grill cheese feel wasn't there. I should be happy that I'm getting more meat for once but I wasn't cause it felt more like a meat sandwich as opposed to a grilled cheese. Service: 3/5 - Standard service. Mobile ordered! Ambiance: 3/5 - Good outdoor seating area. Portion to Price: 3/5 - Pricing was standard fair for park food.

Patio
Rue K.

Watched a show at the patio!! Yay. So awesome. The Korean spicy pork grill cheese sandwich is yummy but a bit salty. It rained and Disneyland is less crowded. But 1/4 of the patio is wet. Space is not usable. Luckily we found a table which is impossible when it usually doesn't rain. Staff wiped the water off the tables mostly but still wet. Get some paper towels yourself.

Spicy Pork Belly Grilled Cheese with Potatoe Bites
John D.

Not a healthy option for eating in California Adventure or at least the food we ordered weren't healthy. Had the Quantum Pretzel, obviously lots of carbs but there was also lots of salts so we were thirsty all day at the park. For the size of the pretzel, the Sharp Cheddar Cheese-Beer Sauce was not enough. Need to fill the cheese to the rim of the cup, it was not even half filled. Tried the Spicy Pork Belly Grilled Cheese since it is for a limited time celebrating Lunar New Year. It was delicious but it was also extra greasy to the touch. Surprisingly, Pym still has tots, those were good. The line was long on a Saturday afternoon. It started at the door and took a little over 30 minutes to arrive at the cashier. Seatings are outside and there are a lot of spaces, but it was full. Took awhile to find a spot. Get someone to hunt for a spot and save it while another person wait in line to order, many people were saving spots.

Chocolate Smash candy bar.  Aka yummy.  Aka giant snickers
Sajeet S.

If you're gonna come to California adventure, this is definitely a place you have to come to. If you'd like a Snickers bar and you'd like to be fun and creative this is the best dessert that I think that was present at Disneyland California adventure. It's big and whimsical and tasty and sweet. It tastes fresh. It has all the characteristics of a giant Snickers bar as it should. The service is fine. Your order on the mobile app and Waze. The audience is clean. The children like to watch the pretzel along the conveyor belt

pasta
Anjii S.

Pym Test Kitchen was a letdown. The "giant taco" isn't really a taco at all, it's basically a cold, bland salad awkwardly folded and mislabeled. No salsa. The pasta was equally bland, no flavor payoff at all. On top of that, there's very limited shade, most of those seats are occupied by exhausted guests, not diners which makes an already disappointing meal even less enjoyable. Overall, it just wasn't a pleasant or relaxing experience. Definitely not something I'd go out of my way for again.

Pimp's test kitchen is an awesome place in the Marvel area of Disneyland and the best part about eating in this area is that you get a show with your meal there's always Marvel characters flying around great great themes, movie score scores playing it's awesome. Their service is really good. You know they greet you. They're super nice. The menu is right there. It's easy to see what you want and order. The pork belly grilled cheese sandwich is so delicious consistency flavor oh my God the pork belly was so juicy flavorful every bite felt important and special and so so delicious. The cheese was nice and melted it enhanced. The experience of the pork belly worked so well in combination with each other if you go to Disneyland because I believe this is limited time you have to try this. This is top two things I've ever ate at Disney and the tater tots nice crunchy nothing special about the tater tots but the sandwich oh my God. The chicken sandwich was very mid is the best way to describe it like it was just a chicken sandwich. There wasn't anything special about it. With this being top two things I ate at Disney this place gets automatic five stars. You have to go try the sandwich. It could possibly be number one.

Butter noodles and yogurt with a side of potato bites
LaChell S.

I love theme park food that actually delivers. Especially a place that my picky kids and food loving adults can enjoy. The spinach and artichoke grilled cheese is one of my new park favorites. It's creamy on the inside and crispy on the outside. Of course we had to try the vegan option and the neutron nachos didn't disappoint. The kids actually helped us finish them off. The Humongous taco salad was loaded and filling. The kids had butter noodles and yogurt with a side of potato bites. The potato bites were their favorite. It was easy to find seating outside and it was enough shade to escape the sun. Pym kitchen checked all our boxes, kid, vegan and foodie friendly. We'll be back again.

What other better place to celebrate our friend reunion at a place called "Reunion"? ;)…read more We were looking for a good brunch place to try out and found this place near Corona. Parking: I had no problem finding parking spot as the lot is huge and shared with many other businesses. Interior: We were seated right away without any wait time as we arrived when they just opened. We were seated in a dark area of the restaurant (think bar vibe) so I was a little not sure at first. Most brunch places I went to were always filled with sunlight and bright colorful interiors. This place embraced a classic, quiet feel, something like a Steak House would have. Service: Our server's name was Susan I believe, who was nice and attentive through the whole meal, despite the crowd slowly built up and filled the restaurant. She never failed to check back on us, not just once but twice and refilled our water. She probably isn't as familiar with the brunch menu favorites but seem to know more about the Main menu. The General Manager came out and greeted us because most of their customers are regulars and it's uncommon to have first timers like us visiting. This nice hospitality made us feel very warmly welcomed and impressed. Food: I couldn't decide whether to go with the Slow braised beef on the brunch menu (braised beef benedict) or the main menu but ended up going with the Main menu to get a good portion size. It was a perfect choice because the beef is just amazing. It was cooked to a soft perfection, well seasoned, the roasted vegetable was also cooked just right and not super raw/ crunchy like other places. Then the star of the show arrived - the butter cake. As Susan suggested, this is their most popular dessert and I can see why. The butter cake comes piping hot with the ice cream on top. There's a nice sugar crunchy feel near the bottom of the cake. It's so delicious that I want to come back just to eat this cake. We had a great time overall and would love to come back.

It has this dark but classy aesthetic and I was not prepared for that (in a good way). This restaurant has been here for about 2 years with different ownership and menu so I was excited to see what they had to offer. Hugo helped us with our order and he was very friendly and professional. We went ahead and ordered the ahi tuna taco, pork belly bao, garlic fries, the margharita pizza, the yuzu lobster pasta, and for drinks I got the virgin burning thyme. My friend got that and other drinks as well. Ahi tuna taco - 5/5 probably the best food item for the evening. The tuna was fresh, perfect amount of kick in its sauce, and the outter shell was perfectly crunchy. I think them replacing the shell with wonton was exceptional with the texture. Every bite was extremely satisfying. Pork Belly bao - 4/5 everything was delicious. The bow itself is bouncy and moist. There wasn't anything special about the sauce inside with the pork belly, but I would definitely give it a try at least once. A great portion with your friends or family as an appetizer. Garlic fries - 3/5 It was a bit underwhelming, but nothing horrible. I could not taste the garlic at all, but the fries itself was cooked to perfection with the outer being pretty crispy and inside being soft. Margharita pizza - 4/5 I really like the crust and the breading of this pizza. It was crispy and the pepperoni was cooked to perfection. I really like the small pepperoni because it gives an immense amount of flavor in each bite. The cheese and the tomato sauce was fine, but nothing special. Yuzu lobster pasta - 4/5 I wish I was able to taste more of the Yuzu since that's in the name of the dish, but I could not. If it was just called the lobster pasta I would say it's amazing. The tomatoes were perfect to lighten the entire dish with the heavy sauce and the pasta. The lobster was cooked fine. Other than that it was fine, but I would say either enhance the Yuzu flavor or remove it in the name of the dish. Burning thyme - 4.5/5 I really like the acid and the balance of sweetness and sour in this drink. Usually, I get skeptical when I make an alcoholic drink version because the bartender tends to over sweeten the drink, but this was not the case, and I enjoyed it a lot with our food.

This visit, the food fell a little short of the usual standard. The fries weren't very crispy, although the sides were still delicious. My Delmonico, which is normally super juicy and tender, came out closer to medium instead of medium rare and was also a touch cold. That said, The Ranch is still one of my favorite spots in OC. If the kitchen can consistently match the high standards and execution that the servers provide, this place will easily stay at the top as one of the best steakhouse experiences in Orange County.

We attended a special Chartreuse tasting event at Strong Water which was being held in honor of…read moreChartreuse week and Chartreuse Day 1605 (May 16), the annual celebration of Chartreuse's origins and history. The tasting featured a great lineup of green and yellow Chartreuse paired with small bites. It concluded with a complementary Chartreuse-based cocktail from one of five recipes. Brand ambassador Taylor guided the event and began by telling us about the unique history of Chartreuse. The tasting started out with a small spoonful of Vegetal Elixir Chartreuse to warm up the palate. This is the base spirit of both green and yellow Chartreuse and clocks in at 138 proof. It was surprisingly not harsh, but immediately kicked my salivary glands into overdrive. I didn't even know that vintages of Chartreuse was a thing, but Taylor walked us through tasting three different vintages of both yellow and green Chartreuse, and it was surprising how different they were. The lineup concluded with more rare varietals of the green elixir 1605 and yellow cuvee. Great job, thanks Taylor! Chef Kling presented each small bite which included a crispy Icelandic cod, a roasted beet crostino, and a lamb slider. All of them had a five star list of ingredients and were delicious. Strong Water is known for their excellent cocktails, but their food is also great. For my cocktail at the end of the event, I had the Bar Flower (Green Chartreuse, Crème de Cacao, Pineapple, Lime). This was so good, with the herbal and chocolate flavors perfectly balanced. It was served with a flaming lime half. This was such a great event! Chartreuse retails for around $100 a bottle, and the higher-end varieties cost even more. At just $45 per person, this event was an amazing bargain. Strong Water frequently hosts great events, so keep an eye on their social media for upcoming dates. I really love Chartreuse, so I went back a few days later on the last day of Chartreuse week to try a few of the other limited time cocktails. I started out with their twist on a Grasshopper (Chartreuse, Crème de Menthe, Chili Liqueur, Crème de Cacao, Cream, Cane, $22). This was a great classic Grasshopper, but the Chartreuse added a herbal complexity, and there is a dash of heat on the finish from the chili liqueur. Next I had the Flare Gun (Yellow Chartreuse, Overproof Rum, Italian Bitter, Lime, Cane, $20). The yellow Chartreuse definitely comes through, but it's softer and has a light sweetness, unlike the green variety. Even though it contains overproof rum, it is perfectly balanced and not boozy at all. I usually don't like bitter drinks, but the bitterness was at a perfect light level. I finished off with the Tales from the Black Lagoon which is my favorite drink here, and it's also a favorite of many of the bartenders. All three cocktails were a home run. Chartreuse is an expensive spirit, so those drinks cost a little more than average. Shout out to Karen, Joey, Edgar, Jordan, and Ying for excellent hospitality, as always. Strong Water is our favorite place. We can't wait to go back!
