Ever wondered if Disney’s California Grill is actually worth the hype? Real life MouseDining user, Ashley recently used MouseDining to score a prime time dining reservation to enjoy the special 50th Anniversary 3-course tasting menu and fireworks show with a friend. And lucky for you, she gave us a play-by-play of her experience!
Here’s what Ashley of Pixie & Magic had to say about her experience dining at Disney’s California Grill restaurant:
“Now my experience at California Grill was absolutely amazing! For this being my first time it definitely gave me a good impression! The service from the Cast Members were exceptional! Our waiter, Walter, was so much fun and helped us picked some yummy dishes! Right now they have a 3-Course Meal to celebrate the 50th Celebration! From the drinks to the main course and ending with dessert everything was to perfection! And it didn’t hurt that you saw Space Mountain (my fave) and Cinderella’s Castle as your view.”
Ashley ordered the Rainbow Roll (Tuna, Salmon, Hamachi, Avocado, Mango, Pickled Watermelon Radish) for her California Grill appetizer:
For her main course, she ordered the Cast Iron-grilled Pork Tenderloin (Goat Cheese Polenta, Forest Mushrooms, Lacquered Pork Belly, Root Spinach, Corn, Zinfandel Glaze):
For dessert, she enjoyed the California Grill’s Meyer Lemon Chiffon Cake (Chevre Whip, Meringue, Blueberry Foam, Blueberry Gel):
Here’s a quick rundown of the California Grill restaurant highlights:
This restaurant is located in Walt Disney World at Disney’s Contemporary Resort.
On the 15th floor of the hotel, guests enjoy a view of the Seven Seas Lagoon and Magic Kingdom park while they dine. This dining experience is known as one of the best for catching the Magic Kingdom fireworks display.
Only dinner reservations are available at California Grill.
The dress code for the California Grill restaurant is described by Disney as, “Sophisticated and upscale aesthetic. Clothing should be clean, neat and in good condition. Please no swimwear.”
The 3-Course Tasting Menu at California Grill is $89 for adults and $39 for children.
Ashley said that using MouseDining has transformed her Disney planning experience into a more peaceful one.
She said, “I was finally able to mark California Grill off of my Disney Dining Bucket List all thanks to my beautiful friends over at MouseDining. They are an online service that set alerts for when when certain dining, tours, special events are available for the time & date that you want! Especially for the rare places we want to try; once it’s available MouseDining will send you that alert immediately and you’ll be able to book. No need to pound the app (which I used to do in the past a lot). Now this has me covered & I can book in peace.”

Oh boy! The time is nearly here to welcome back Mickey’s Toontown to Disneyland Resort. On March 19, 2023, you’ll be able to once again step foot inside this reimagined, vibrant, and exciting world of Mickey Mouse and his pals. And as part of this reimagining, you know there’s going to be some tasty new treats coming your way!
We’ve got your first look at the delicious snacks and sips you can enjoy come March 19 when Mickey’s Toontown reopens. There will be two new locations for you to explore – Café Daisyand Good Boy! Grocers. With tasty treats and novelties unlike any you’ve seen before, you’ll be counting down the days until you can get your hands – and taste buds – on these items.
Let’s jump into the details, shall we?
First up, let’s take a closer look at Café Daisy, a new eatery where Daisy Duck will be showing off her expert culinary skills with the help of our talented Disney culinary teams. Whether utilizing mobile order or deciding once you arrive at the location, there are options for you!
For the grown-ups, there are quite a few dishes Daisy has put together for you. The Daisy’s Dressed-up Dog features an all-beef foot-long hot dog, chili-cheese sauce, mac & cheese, and parmesan potato crispies with house-made chips. For those looking for a simpler hot dog, The Daisy Dog is an all-beef foot-long hot dog with house-made chips and gives you the option of adding on some chili-cheese sauce.
If you’re a pizza lover, there are two options for you too! The Cheesy Pizza Flop-Over features mozzarella and provolone with tomato sauce while the Pepperoni Pizza Flop-Over has pepperoni, mozzarella, and provolone with tomato sauce. Allergy-friendly offerings are available too – just ask at the location!
If you’re looking for a plant-based offering, we’ve got one for you too – the Spring Garden Wrap. This dish combines romaine and quinoa into a wrap with a creamy lemon dressing and toasted pumpkin seeds accompanied with house-made chips. Yum!
The little ones can enjoy the Cheese Please! Pizza with cheese and tomato sauce or the Pepperoni Please! Pizza with pepperoni, cheese, and tomato sauce. But that’s not all – there’s the bite-size Minnie’s Mini Corn Dogs and the tasty Mini Mac and Cheesy.
No matter your age, you can snag a side of Toontown ‘Tater Chips – house-made chips with chili-cheese sauce – to add on to your meal. And what meal is complete without my personal favorite – dessert! The Daisy’s Goody-Goody Donuts with cinnamon sugar are not to be missed and are the perfect sweet finish to your dining experience.
In addition to these dishes, there are some specialty sips available too. The Picnic Time Watermelon Lemonade is a refreshing choice with Minute Maid Zero Sugar Lemonade, watermelon premium syrup, and watermelon gummies. Coffee connoisseurs will be pleased with the Specialty Cold Brrr-ew made up of Caramel Mudslide Cold Brew from Joffrey’s Coffee & Tea Co. with sea salt and whipped topping. Now those are some yummy beverages!
Next, let’s venture over to the Toontown Farmers Market where you’ll find Good Boy! Grocers. This friendly roadside stand has grab-and-go drinks and tasty treats for you to enjoy, and some new novelties to go along with them.
Some of the snack-sized items you can pick up include pickles, Mini Babybel snack cheese, Coca-Cola beverages, waters, Topo Chico Sparkling Mineral Water, gluten-allergy-friendly cookies, fruit bars, and whole fruit. Grab as many as you’d like to complete your own picnic outing in Mickey’s Toontown!
If you’re interested in the Perfect Picnic Basket novelty item, I’ve got some important info to share. After picking up your basket, you can choose three – yes, three – snack-sized items such as Cuties Mandarin Orange, yogurt smoothie, applesauce, granola bar, gluten-allergy-friendly fig bar and more. You’ll also be able to choose between a small DASANI water or Minute Maid Juice Box. It’s the ideal way to have a perfect picnic! And if you want to enhance your outing even more, you can also get a Perfect Picnic Blanket to go with your basket!
I hope you’re as excited as I am for the return of Mickey’s Toontown. This new reimagining is just one of many can’t-miss adventures you can have at Disney Parks!
Happy Women’s History Month! Here at Disney Parks, we are surrounded by talented women chefs, mixologists, pastry chefs, and more creating culinary works of art for you to enjoy daily. We are always amazed by the talent of these individuals and love to see what they bring to the plate and the glass.
