Quesabirrias
Disneyland’s own page names Chef Gaytán’s quesabirrias ($24) first among Centrico’s highlights. On Google, fish tacos are the most-mentioned dish (39 reviews), followed by carne asada tacos (22).
RV tip: Anaheim Harbor RV Park is about 1.6 miles away. Bring the tow vehicle to the Downtown Disney lot rather than paying $45 to park the rig at Toy Story.

Why go
A chef’s cantina outside the park gates
Centrico opened in spring 2024 on the west end of Downtown Disney, in the former Catal and Uva Bar space. It’s run by Chef Carlos Gaytán, the first Mexican-born chef to earn a Michelin star, for his Chicago restaurant.
It has 4.5 stars from more than 2,500 Yelp reviews and 4.7 on Tripadvisor; Google is cooler at 4.0. Diners love the open-air courtyard and the tacos; the main downside is that every seat is outdoors.
Downtown Disney is outside the theme parks, so no ticket is needed. For RVers it’s about 5 minutes from Anaheim Harbor RV Park.

For RVers
Taking the rig to Centrico
The practical stuff we wished someone had told us before we pulled in.
Leave the rig at the park
Oversized vehicles and motor homes can only park in Disney’s Toy Story lot, for $45. Bring the tow vehicle to the Downtown Disney Simba lot instead.
Get your parking validated
The Simba lot charges $10 for the first hour. Downtown Disney table-service restaurants can validate up to 5 more hours; ask your server.
Dress for the weather
All the seating is outdoors in the courtyard, so bring a layer on cool evenings and check the forecast for rain.
Book ahead on busy nights
Reservations open on OpenTable, and walk-up seating is available when there’s room.
