“ This is the best food at the resort available to the public. It was all very delicious. You should expect to spend a few hours here, the food comes out a little at a time. All of my meats were cooked to perfection. Our server was also very nice and knowledgeable of the menu. ”

“ Thank you Wonderful Wendy! You made our evening with your smiles and humor. You chose the right wine for my dinner. Sorry I added tequila to the mix, as I was a little chilly from the breeze coming from the side room. We tried out three cocktails. The Napa Rose we sent back because it was so sweet tasting like a pixie stick candy. The Bitter Storm was a better drink with warm flavors. I loved the Abeja Asesina with Mezcal and Bourbon as the flavors were bright and refreshing. Tiger Prawn Salad was flavorful. The Frog Legs were better than I expected and nicely plated. The tender Black Angus filet mignon with the shredded smoky oxtail was amazing. The Herb Roasted duck breast was tender and lightly seasoned. The buttery mushroom soup was warming and lovely as a dipping sauce for the sweet potato bread. Dessert was apple stuffed French toast. That was lightly sweet and not like a typical toast bread. The atmosphere was relaxing with warm wood colors. We sat facing the open kitchen which was great for me because I work at a fine dining open kitchen. We listen in on the executive chef calling out the orders. The GM visited us twice and I watched as the floor managers made sure to touch the tables to check on guests. They even served dishes and poured wine. I have to say that this is top quality service I would expect from this establishment. ”

“ What an incredible time with family, both the food and wine were delicious. The service was above and beyond any expectations. Our server Cresslyn was fantastic and host Jess made our evening truly memorable with a kitchen tour and head chef introduction. A total first class experience !!! ”

“ Napa Rose will always be a favorite for us. In 2016 we rented the private dining room and patio for our wedding reception. Ever since, many staff members recognize and greet us by name. The food and drinks are exceptional, and the vibe is relaxing and fun. My all time favorites are the Smiling Tiger Salad and the Mushroom Cappuccino. Their Old Fashioned and Provence Sour are the perfect prelude to the amazing food. I highly suggest booking the Chef’s counter. The counter top looks directly at the kitchen and you get to witness the action of the culinary team. At the counter there is no menu, you simply chat with the chef and they make you an array of dishes. It’s easy to forget you’re at Disney Ca Adventure, until you see a pair of Mickey Ears bobbing through the dining room. Luckily they have a relaxed dress code for those visiting after the theme park. ”

“ What an exceptional experience. For starters our server Brett had outstanding knowledge of the menu the wines and the overall fine dining experiences in the area even outside of the local restaurants. The food was an unconventional mix of amazing flavors and spices to create one of the greatest restaurant experiences I can remember. I wanted to take more photos but I couldn't help but enjoy the food and wine despite it's hefty price, which I must say is very well worth it. I will definitely return to this place in the future, one of the best restaurants in Los Angeles or Orange County in my opinion ”

“ We had a phenomenal experience here after a long day at the parks. Very upscale Californian cuisine. The staff is well educated, patient, and courteous. The head chef does a good job of securing local ingredients and the management creates a peaceful atmosphere. The food is great, and they validate parking at the Californian! Can’t wait to come here again our next trip to Disneyland! ”

“ Service - The best part of our night was the service. Michael did an excellent job, we had one of the last time slots and I was surprised he still had the energy at the end of the day to be friendly and make jokes when checking in on us. We didn’t end up trying wines since we are not wine people and he gave no judgment for it and happily showed us the cocktail menu. The staff in general was great too - checking in on us and making sure to take away plates when we were done eating, refilling water, moving the courses along at our pace. Food - The food was great too. We tried the fixed price menu. The flavor was there for all the dishes - though some lacked the visually appealing element. I would give this part a 4/5. The wild boar dish was too heavy and it was visually the least appealing - there was a frothy thing on it and maybe I am no culinary expert - but it was weird. The fish of the day entree was great in flavor - though my fish was a little greasier than I would want. My husband’s filet mignon was cooked perfectly. The dessert was fantastic- truly no notes. Atmosphere - I would give this a 4/5. The restaurant felt a little dated. However, it did fit into the vibe I was expecting so not the worse thing. We were not sat near the open kitchen, so we didn’t get to see any of the chefs cooking - though this was more of a plus since it was a little more quiet and we enjoyed our chat more. ”

“ If you’re looking for fine-dining at its finest, there’s no need to traverse the globe. The Napa Rose at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel is without a doubt in the top five restaurants I’ve eaten at in the world. Having dined there three nights in a row during my stay at the hotel, and having worked my way across the menu during that time, I can honestly say that the chefs and kitchen team here have a unique kind of magic all their own. I’m talking the freshest seasonal ingredients, amazing counterbalances of flavors and textures, stunning presentation, and creativity combined with execution at the absolute highest level. If you’re a fan of luxurious, unique, deeply flavorful food, you simply must make the journey here. Just as one would pair the perfect wine with an excellent entree, the Napa Rose also pairs exceptional cuisine with a sensational staff. To start with, the management is incredible. I cannot say enough fantastic things about Jess, and Jacob is very nice as well. As far as servers go, two very special standouts at the restaurant are Julio and David. They know every inch of the Napa Rose menu, and that expertise on the chef’s creations, pairings, and flavors allows them to speak with confidence and clarity about every item offered. Their attentiveness and amazing attitudes paired with the truly unbelievable food always make my whole Napa Rose experience unforgettable. The restaurant is also truly lucky to have Christina, Roberto, Rodrigo, Hugo, Irvin, Victor, and both Michaels. They are exceptional, friendly, attentive, knowledgable, and delightful. And at the front you have to love the great service provided by Natalia, Mika, Gene, and Dee. The whole team's warmth rivals the hot food coming out of the stellar kitchen full of talented chefs and creative leadership. And their efficiency in terms of speed and keeping the flow of dinner going rivals the smoothest flow of the most well-oiled ride at either theme park. I look forward to enjoying more of the chef’s immaculate, unrivaled culinary triumphs in the future. ”
