Ever wonder what Ronto meat tastes like?
Then you’re in the right place at Ronto Roasters in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge!
You may smell Ronto Roasters before you see it, as the spot lures marketplace visitors in Black Spire Outpost with the fragrance of grilled meat.
Atmosphere
As you follow your nose, you’ll find it leads you through the marketplace towards Ronto Roasters. Then it’s time to take in some truly interesting sights!
You’ll find your eyes are greeted by a podracer engine directly in the center hanging above a grilling pit filled with meats. The next treats are for your ears: be sure to listen as you may hear a bit of crackling and revving while everything is being cooked up!
The entire contraption is run by a pitmaster droid, turning the mechanical spit. What’s he grilling? Why, it’s a side of Ronto — a beast native to Luke Skywalker’s home planet of Tatooine.
Eats
The Ronto Wrap is the specialty of the house! But there’s more to the menu here…
…so let’s check it out.
Breakfast
Breakfast options include the Ronto Morning Wrap ($12.49) which is filled with scrambled eggs, grilled pork sausage, shredded cheddar, and peppercorn sauce, all wrapped in pita and
the Rising Moons Overnight Oats ($6.99). This is a mixture of oats, dragon fruit, yogurt, and seasonal fruits topped with a piece of kiwi. The presentation is gorgeous.
Lunch and Dinner
The Nuna Turkey Jerkey ($7.49, and also available for breakfast) comes in both sweet and spicy choices. We decided to try the sweet option, though we think that calling it “sweet” really just meant that it wasn’t spicy.
Overall this jerky was very salty and savory. The consistency was thin and crunchy, unlike the chewy jerky we were expecting. I’m not the biggest jerky fan, so this wasn’t my favorite thing on the menu. But, it is a great keto dining option.
How about a Ronto Wrap ($12.99)? This surprisingly is one of the better food items in ALL of Galaxy’s Edge. The wrap is filled with roasted pork, grilled pork sausage, peppercorn sauce, and a tangy slaw. Like the breakfast wrap, it’s all wrapped up in a pita.
The pork sausage was SUPER flavorful and delicious, but it was quite skinny and way too small for the piece of bread. Therefore, we ended up having a TON of bread in the bite and not enough meat. The grilled pork slices helped a bit, but again, there simply wasn’t enough. The coleslaw and peppercorn sauce complimented the wrap well. And when it came to the pita, it seemed much closer to naan bread, actually. Overall, we enjoyed the dish and its components very much; we’re just bummed that the proportions were so off and hope for better in the future.
Specialty Drinks
The are three Specialty Beverages of the house.
They are Meiloorun Juice (Barrilitos® Aguas Frescas Pineapple, Simply Lemonade® with blueberry, white cranberry juice, lemon juice, and desert pear), the Sour Sarlac (Minute Maid® Limeade drink with raspberry and spicy mango flavors), and the Tatooine Sunset (Gold Peak® Unsweetened Tea and Odwalla® Lemonade with melon and blueberry flavors).
The location also serves fountain beverages and you have GOT to check out the soda fountains with drink names in Aurebesh like the exclusive to Galaxy’s Edge Coca-Cola bottles!
We’ll be seeing you back here from Ronto Roasters again soon!

CJ says
Hmm, quite odd they have no vegetarian options outside of the overnight oats?
I’m sad. A veggie ronto wrap would be great
DFB Sarah says
CJ, we’ll keep watching the menus and asking about options. As of now, that appears to be correct at Ronto. Docking Bay does have two vegan options for lunch/dinner, but breakfast has the oats and a breakfast platter (sub out the sausage for more potatoes or possibly another Mustafarian Lava Roll if they’ll allow!). We’ll update as we find out more!
BT says
Apparently vegetarian and vegan food is not popular in a galaxy far far away. Come on Batuu get it together!!!!! I can’t live on granola and blue milk!!!!
Ugh!
Arlene says
Can you tell me where we can get the specially themed cans of Coca-Cola from? Are they here at this location?
DFB Sarah says
Arlene, we found the Galaxy’s Edge Coke product bottles at carts in various locations and at Kat Saka’s Kettle.
DFB Sarah says
BT, Docking Bay has two good vegan dishes — one at lunch and one at dinner.

That Rising Moon Oats look beautiful and I can’t wait to try it. (I think it’s kiwi on top and not star fruit.)
Not so much on the bread to sausage ratio on the Ronto Wrap or maybe I’d try to get rid of some of the pita.
Jayna says
What do they have for kids? This all looks very “grown up” type food.
DFB Sarah says
Jayna, that’s accurate. There aren’t even kids’ items listed.

I agree with what you said about the Ronto Wrap! My husband and I ordered a 2nd one and it had less than the first. The flavors were so good. We can’t wait to go back in September! I am going to try to make my own version this week. We’ll see how it turns out. I would the love recipe…lol…

We thought the leather looking stuff in the display case was just a prop, but unfortunately no. The sweet turkey jerky was inedible so we returned it for a refund. I’ve had good turkey jerky (if you’ve had fresh Perky Jerky brand, you know what I mean), but Ronto Roasters’ version was dry and hard. Maybe it’s because it was late in the day, but if that’s the case, I’d prefer they say they’re out instead of serving something that wasn’t good.
We thought the Ronto Wrap was OK, but just seemed like a slightly fancy hot dog.
The Tatooine Sunset was a nice combination of flavors, but the Sour Sarlacc left an odd numb feeling in the backs of our throats – I guess maybe it was the ‘spicy mango’?
It seems Ronto Roasters continues the tradition of Studios not being the best Disney Park for food. (now back to Food and Wine to get some good stuff 🙂
