I ate at Roundup Rodeo BBQ, located in Toy Story Land at Disney's Hollywood Studios.
Although the base price of the meal is $45, I spent $58 on my dinner after tax and tip.

Once we arrived at our table, our server explained the menu.

The plates were glass, but they were made to look like paper picnic plates.

For my drink, I tried a sweet tea, which was included in the price of the meal.

We started off our meal with the Prospector's homemade cheddar biscuits with sweet-pepper jelly.

Out of all of the sides, the fried pickles were my favorite by far.

My favorite was the large statue of Bo Peep.
