California Grill

The place and food overall was really good, nice fancy place. The waitress we had was very nice but the food took forever. We were probably there for about 2 hours total which is obnoxious for a place like this and the pricing of the food. We ended up leaving with our dessert because it just took way too long to get the food. I don’t think this is normal for any other night but I’m just sharing me and my s/o experience. We had a party of 4 seated next to us that arrived probably about 30 minutes after us and they ended up getting their main entree and dessert and check before we even got to our own dessert (mind you, it was just me and my s/o so a small party of 2 and we got our food wayyyy after they did). The waitress apologized and gave a discount which was nice but honestly a genuine apology from the chef would’ve been enough for the both of us. Overall this could’ve been a 5/5 experience but the service was a huge inconvenience.

Everything was great

Amazing staff, DELICIOUS food.. amazing view

This restaurant is at the 15th floor of the Disney’s Contemporary Resort. The view of the Magic Kingdom is great! They dimmed the light when the fireworks is on at 8:45. You may also use their balcony to view the fireworks, and I feel it’s a better experience than watching it at the park when it’s jam packed. Reservation is a must! The reservation opens 2 months in advance, and the slots are booked up with a blink of your eye. Food wise… decent, but the service and the atmosphere are definitely amazing. This restaurant is also not included in the Dinner Plans. Menus are set, but they have a variety of options. I highly recommend this restaurant.

I don’t know if I can call this spot a secret gem because I know it’s popular but I don’t know anyone who goes here when they’re in Disney and it confuses me. Maybe it’s the price point or that it’s not as kid friendly as other places, but I genuinely love coming here. The views are great of course, but I do wish they’d work a little harder are asking people not to push past you to take pics at the windows. We had the perfect view, so I get that part, but this woman legit asked us to get up from our food so she could take pictures with the fireworks. Then she acted like when we were rude when we said “oh sorry, we’re eating right now.” If we just had drinks maybe I’d have done it but this isn’t Influencer Grill. It just felt weird having to deal with that. But otherwise the food, service, venue is great.

Went for our 23rd anniversary. The wine pairings were excellent. The dishes were all really good. The steak was prepared medium and done perfectly! The cauliflower puree and grouper were my favorite and the ravioli appetizer was delicious! Love this place!

Regge was a great server. Excellent food.
