This is the best quick-service restaurant in the park, especially for families with kids, because there is something for everyone.

Nice area with enough seating outside to make it a decent enough stop for lunch. Had the Cuban sandwich meal along with the wookie oatmeal cookie, and the seasonal salted caramel frozen hot chocolate.
Pros:
The burgers and other sandwiches, while typical for theme park fare, were actually better than I expected and I very much enjoyed it. The frozen hot chocolate was MMMMMMMM!Cons:
The wookie cookie was just okay. Would not get again.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 11/12/2020

We eat here every visit as we can always count on the food being good. Our recent trip to the Backlot was no different on Sept 23. Food choices were good. Mobil ordering was quick and easy and the atmosphere was good. We got there at a good time as the crowd was lower so have ample seating choices. While not top notch food, it is good with many selections. Dark Side chicken and waffles were one of my choices but went with burger. Wife had the capresse sandwich. All was good as well as the drinks. Can't miss here again.
Pros:

Went in with low expectations with the state of Hollywood Studios currently. We were pleasantly surprised. The Dark Side chicken and waffles were filling and fairly tasty. The kids meal version is a good value as compared to the adult portion.
Pros:
Decent food fastCons:

We ate here twice on our recent visit. One time had a kids meal with two fruit sides; the next, the salad with chicken with avocado-cilantro dressing. This comes with a very thin wheat tortilla printed with R2D2 icons (cute). The salad was of high quality. My wife had the Dark Side chicken and waffles. The waffles were standard Mickey waffles but the fried boneless chicken consisted of white breast meat--significantly better than typical nuggets. An added bonus is the refillable soda which is a Godsend on hot days.
Pros:
Cool, quiet, good selectionCons:

We tend to always end up at Backlot Express when we are at Hollywood Studios. We really like the burgers. It can get busy, but we didn't have any trouble finding a table. Since we are always using the dining plan, I like that you can get the seasonal cupcake as a desert instead of the usual pre-packaged cakes.
The only negative we experienced was that several of the sodas in the machine nearest our table were out of syrup. I told a CM working and she said she would take care of it. We ate our entire meal and went to get soda refills and they still had not been changed.
