Did you know that today is National Burger Day?
Well, it is — and we are all about trying out some good burgers. Now, we have our favorites at Disney World, but for this National Burger Day, we’re spending time at a media event at D-Luxe Burger in Disney Springs trying out some revamped burgers. Oh, yeah, now THAT sounds like fun!
We even heard from the head chef at D-Luxe, who told us about how the restaurant had worked hard on perfecting the nuances for the menu, including perfecting the sauces, as well as having fresher produce and bread.

Technically, this isn’t a NEW menu per se, but a revamp of the existing menu that perfects the flavors. The ultimate goal? To have the best burgers in Orlando.
So how did they do? Well, we tried Classic Cheeseburger ($10.49) to start with — it’s made with Two-pressed Signature-blend Patties topped with Cheddar, 1921 Sauce, Lettuce, Tomato, and Pickle.
We thought it was actually pretty good. Although it has improved, we still found it to be a little dry.
Next up was the Pizza Burger ($13.49), and this one was our favorite of the two. It’s made with Two-pressed Signature Blend Patties topped with Pepperoni, Fried Mozzarella, Lettuce, and Tomato Sauce on a Parmesan-Tomato Herb Bun. A previous version had pomodoro sauce and a sun-dried tomato on it.

This burger was VERY tasty, although the meat was a little dry, but with everything else going on with it, you don’t really notice that as much. Overall, though, we’d say this one has improved a bit — it’s a fun and unique burger option if you’re looking for something different!
We paired our burgers with a Chocolate Gelato Shake ($7.50), which is made with Vanilla Gelato blended with Dark Chocolate Sauce topped with Whipped Cream, Dark Chocolate Drizzle, and a Maraschino Cherry. This baby is RICH, y’all, so it is a shareable item for sure. But it was SO creamy with a slight bite to it, thanks to the dark chocolate.
Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at how these milkshakes are made!

We appreciate when a Disney World restaurant tries to improve upon what it’s doing with its food and we do feel that the new versions of the burgers we tried were an upgrade. It’s the little changes that count!
We’ll continue to try out MORE food at Disney World (food is our middle name, after all), so check back with us for more reviews! Happy National Burger Day, y’all!
