This is definitely my go to for food!! Good price and the best chicken tenders I’ve ever had!! During my very hot summer trip, Cosmic Rays was my biggest craving.. still craving it, haha. I recommend the kids menu. You still get a lot of food with an amazing price!
Pros:
Is say the chicken and amazing ambience!Cons:

Terrible food and service
Pros:

Food was awful. Ordered plant based burger with vegan cheese. The cheese was not even melted on top. Mobile order was super slow and took over 15 minutes. Avoid!Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 02/12/2023

We did not enjoy the chicken strips here. The chicken was sliding out of the breading and tasted like sub-par cafeteria food. I have heard that the burgers are decent here, but we did not try them. After those chicken fingers, we wish we did. Regretting our decisions and wishing we did not pay Disney dollars for disappointment.
Pros:
We met a very kind server and experienced generally good service. Relatively clean atmosphere.Cons:
Below average food. Some of the worst chicken tenders we have ever had. Even bad by theme park standards.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 09/13/2022

Our cashier was the worst. We asked for simple menu questions and she replied with rude comments or ignore us. She made this experience not pleasant at all.

Ah...Cosmic Ray's...I think back fondly to the days where each of the food court style "Bays" where you placed your order had different types of cuisine to choose from. It's much simplified now with each Bay offering the same typical American theme park food - hot dogs, hamburgers, chicken strips, and those delicious Disney French fries. Nothing stellar about the food, and picky eaters will be happy, but what gives this restaurant a bit of an edge is the legendary Sonny Eclipse animatronic who serenades you while you dine. If you are an old school Disney or animatronic fan, definitely hit this place up for some chili-cheese-fries and one of Sonny's sets. Great way to cool off!
Pros:
SONNY ECLIPSE! Picky eater haven. Lots of seating with air conditioning.Cons:
Unremarkable menu, quality is cafeteria style (which honestly, is totally fine).Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 06/10/2022

Best hot dog ever, Walt chili dog and fries was a hit. Very popular spot at dinner time. Hard to find seating due to Pride days. Mobile order took quite a while

Starlight Cafe is exactly as advertised. It is quick theme park fare. Which, I do wholeheartedly believe has its purpose. Its not bad- its just meh. However, they do make great french fries and this is our go to spot mid afternoon when we need to sit, get some AC, fill up our water bottle, get a quick and tasty pick me up and, as my husband likes to say, listen to the singing frog (Sunny Eclipse).
Pros:
Lots of tables, AC and quick food The singing frog!Cons:
Not the most exciting fair Can be pretty loud insideReviewed by ktkueb80 Review Date: 02/28/2022

DH, DS (age 8) and I had lunch here on 2/20/22. We placed a mobile order and found a seat fairly easily. I had the mission to mars which was a burger topped with mac and cheese and bacon, and the roll and crushed cheetos. It was as disgustingly delicious as it sounds. My husband had the boring old burger and fries and my DS had chicken tenders, a cutie and fries. We were all happy with our meals.
Pros:
the creativity with my burger, I will dream about itCons:

Disclaimer: I'll start this off by saying that I do love hot dogs! So based on that, I did enjoy the food here! The hot dog was absolutely ginormous, and the fries were thin and crispy. I've only been to MK once in my life (so far), so I don't think I'd eat here again on my next trip. Just want to try out other things! If you are in the market for a good hot dog, come here! I can't say much about his experience, but my boyfriend loved the chicken caesar salad.
