Gordon Ramsay Rolls Out a Fresh Menu at The Carnaby, Downtown Disney

When you wander through Downtown Disney and spot The Carnaby’s sleek black façade, you might expect the usual tourist fare. Instead, you’ll be greeted by a menu that feels like a short trip across the pond, courtesy of Gordon Ramsay himself.

The centerpiece of the revamp is the West Thames Burger – a hefty beef patty that’s still pink in the middle, topped with sharp cheddar, caramelized onions, and a slather of tangy mustard aioli. It sits on a lightly toasted brioche bun that’s just soft enough to give way without falling apart. Ramsay says the burger was inspired by a late‑night snack he enjoyed back in London, and the result is a bite‑size (well, not that small) homage to his roots.

For those who crave something a bit more classic, the restaurant has polished up its fish‑n‑chips. The cod fillets are coated in a light, seasoned batter and fried to a golden crisp, while the chips are thick‑cut, fluffy on the inside and dusted with sea salt. A side of tartar sauce and a malt‑vinegar drizzle complete the dish, making it feel both nostalgic and surprisingly upscale.

If you’re looking for a lighter bite, try the Fitzroy Chicken Salad. Tender chicken breast, mixed greens, toasted almonds, and a splash of citrus vinaigrette come together in a bowl that’s as colorful as it is tasty. It’s the kind of dish you can eat with a fork or a spoon, depending on your mood.

And because Ramsay never shies away from a bold beverage, The Carnaby now serves a tea‑infused cocktail called the “London Fog Martini.” It mixes Earl Grey‑steeped gin, vanilla‑bean simple syrup, and a splash of cream, then finishes with a dusting of cocoa powder. It’s a playful nod to the British tea culture, but with enough kick to keep the night alive.

Pricing stays in the mid‑range, with the burger hovering around $18 and the fish‑n‑chips at $15. The cocktail is a touch pricier at $12, but it’s presented in a glass that looks as polished as the restaurant’s décor – polished brass fittings, dark wood panels, and a mural that hints at London’s iconic skyline.

Overall, The Carnaby feels like a relaxed lounge where you can still hear the sizzle of a grill and the clink of glasses, but you’re not rushed. It’s a place where families, couples, and solo diners can all find something that feels both familiar and a little adventurous.

Whether you’re a die‑hard Ramsay fan or just in town for a bite after a day at Disneyland, the new menu gives you a reason to linger a little longer – and maybe even plan a second visit.
