Stopped here for a drink during a fun day at Disneyland. I remember "back in the day" when there…read morewas no alcohol allowed at the park, so it's nice to have the opportunity to have a fun drink. This Caramel Apple Martini was part of their seasonal Signature Cocktail menu -- it was a little on the sweet side, but still tasty. One thing to note is that you must consume the beverage in the Cafe -- cannot walk around the park.

I'm really sad about the current state of carnation cafe. We came through the usual Disney…read morereservation and had fond memories of 2 years ago. However, when we arrived it feels a bit outdated and maybe it was the theming but I was like whoah, this place is old. I think it's fine but what really disappointed me was how the food seemed to match the decor. The service was actually quite good and attentive and everyone was so nice, however it was hard to continue eating and definitely this place is nowhere close to worth the price. We ordered fried pickles, the cheeseburger, the catch of the day (salmon), and baked potato soup. I ordered the caramel apple martini and it just tasted like sugar through and through, almost undrinkable. I think this is the first time I have struggled to make it through an alcoholic drink at Disney. Regarding the food, the only edible thing is the fried pickles. The fries part of the cheeseburger is good but the burger itself tastes like dry cardboard and the cheese had a really suspicious texture. I would liken the cheeseburger to the sad government cheeseburgers you get in public school, just barely edible. The salmon was dry and no amount of sauce could recover the taste of the sad fish. Contrary to the land of happiness I entered, this food just made me feel sad. The baked potato soup was too salty. I feel like the flavoring is targeted towards people who need a lot of flavor in their food to feel something. This is purely for the quality of food and nothing against the service at all. The folks who work here are super attentive and I'm sad that the quality of food couldn't match the supposed quality of the park. Onto the next but at this state I can't recommend ever making a reservation at carnation cafe ever again

We had a pretty good experience at Great Maple overall! We arrived about 30 minutes early for our…read morereservation and were told we would likely be seated earlier, but unfortunately, we ended up waiting past our actual reservation time. They actually sat several walk up guest before us which didn't make me too happy. Communication at the hostess desk could definitely have been better, especially when there were delays. Our food also took longer than expected, which we were told was due to an oven not working. Despite the rough start, the food was definitely worth it! I had the Bacon Scramble with the scallop potatoes, and let me just say the scallops were AMAZING. My MIL had the chilaquiles which were also really good. My baby had the kids' pancakes which were so yummy with a hint of Vanilla and cinnamon in the batter. Hubby had the Hot honey Chicken Sandwich, topped with egg that he enjoyed as well. We also tried the Blood Orange Margarita. It was okay, but honestly pretty basic and nothing too special. Overall, the food was delicious and we really enjoyed our dishes. With better communication at the hostess stand and a smoother experience with the wait times, this would have easily been a 5-star visit. We'd definitely come back to try more of the menu!

Our server Jennifer was AMAZING!! When my dining partner asked if she could just order a couple…read moresides, one of which was not on the menu, Jennifer said absolutely. She was accommodating, attentive and super friendly. We will request her again when we come back. We started with the artichoke hearts. They were delicious and the garlic aoli was perfect. I had a Margharita pizza for one. It was the perfect size and very tasty. No complaints at all. I would order again. My friend ordered a side of mashed potatoes, rice pilaf and grilled veggies. The servings were enormous. Enough for three people to share. We were expecting a serving size equal to what would be served next to a protein on the dinner menu. Needless to say, we did not finish our food. Luckily there are refrigerators in the rooms and microwaves by the ice machines on each floor of the hotel. My friend can always find something that is not right about her food whenever we go out. Not this time. On this occasion she would not shut up about what she ate. She said the veggies are the best she's ever had, and trust me, I've seen her eat just a plate of grilled vegetables numerous times. The mashed potatoes were flavorful and cooked to perfection. As was the rice pilaf. I can't wait to return. You can also find Jennifer behind the bar on occasion. If you do, you will be pleased with any cocktail she makes you. She's made a few for me in the past, and I always love them.

For a hotel restaurant, it was decent service for the two to-go orders I made. Also, they were…read morereally empty. However, the pricing is all over the place. The appetizer portion of the wings was six pretty big wings with two ranch dressing 1/4 cup servings. It included celery and carrots. They were well-cooked and crispy bone-in wings--a good portion for $9.95. However, the French Toast, which included blueberries and strawberries, was $14.95. That was pricey for the portion size. The same dish, minus the berries, is $5.49 across the street at Cocos. However, both were prepared correctly.

The adult drinks were very limited on the menu but still very tasty. I would prefer more than Pinot noir or rose for our only wine choices. We loved the mint Julip with bourbon. But $21 is pretty pricey. I highly recommend the famous gumbo and the braised short rib. It was very good, satisfying and does not taste like theme park food. It is a highly elevated culinary masterful experience. The outdoor shaded patio is one of the best places to people watch in the park a d have a drink as boats pass by.

Really enjoyed our lunch here!…read more We got the pre fixed menu that came with special reserved seating to catch the FANTASMIC SHOW (later that day) The food and the show did not disappoint. The prefixed menu comes with an appetizer, main, and dessert. The mint julep (alcoholic and non alcoholic) is very refreshing, especially on a hot summer day. The chicken cutlet Alfredo pasta was creamy and the chicken had a great breaded crust. The creme brulee was also a very tasty dessert. There are options for each but these were my favorite. Always nice to enjoy a seat/break and good food while a Disneyland.

My son has a shellfish allergy and the wait staff and cook were so aware and attentive to it.

From the moment we walked in until we left... we couldn't have asked for a better experience.

Update 6/30/2026: - Rewards became even less efficient than…read moresince my last visit in 2022. Now when you join their membership, gotta visit 8 times to redeem the nice offer. Used to be that you get a nice gift right upon joining. - Parking at Anaheim Gardenwalk is $4/hr, 1st hr's free. This restaurant's validation only grants you one extra hr. After validation, I still had to pay $8, which is a lil expensive considering the numerous amount of open parking spots there were, but I guess that's downtown for ya. - And the parking validation still needs something like a stamp. Some tangible indicator that our parking slip has been validated. - The cook didn't do any spatula tricks. + More seafood variety now. - Staff attentiveness is okay. I noticed whenever the waitress(es) stopped by to check up on us, 90% of the time she only looks at my guest, kinda like she just cares about her wellbeing, not his. We had: $54 2-dinner (all day) + $4 coke + tax = $63 Prev review: 6/19/2022 tl,dr: Fantastic specialized AYCE! Better than regular buffets cuz of the variety of sauces and a focused cooking style. The parking business is a downside though. Tips: . As you're grabbing food, use the tongs to press the food down in your bowl. You'll find you can add more per trip, since the bowl is small. . Get less carbs (noodles or pasta) so you can save stomach space and make the most of your money on meats and veggies. Likes: + This place honors the reservation system. Within a few min of us walking in, they were able to quickly seat us, even during a crowded Father's Day lunch hour. Though their website does not allow reserving for 3 ppl, thankfully they let me reserve over the phone. + Variety of food and sauces! + They keep a box of gloves at the front of the self-serve bar. + The grill chefs are very adept and attentive, and pretty nice. + The chefs put on quite a show when they cook. If you're lucky, you'll even catch them flipping their spatulas. + The cook was willing to cook the two fried eggs I asked for. + The lunchtime desserts include blackberries and yogurt. Yum! Non-likes: - Redeeming a discount here used to be efficient, but now it takes at least a few days to enable one. Try signing up for a discount via their website and you'll know what I mean. - Their website should allow reserving for 3 ppl. - Lacking in seafood variety though. - Chefs don't wear masks. - As you wait for your food to get cooked, you're standing shoulder to shoulder with a bunch of strangers. - They should post a few more informative signs. One could say what ingredients we can ask for at the grill that aren't available at the self-serve counter, such as eggs. Another sign could say what time they're putting away the lunch hour foods and what time they're bringing out the dinner hour foods. - They remove the fruits and yogurt around 3pm. But I heard they have soup instead for dinner hour. - I asked the waiter to validate my parking. When he returned the ticket to me, he said I'm all set. But when I went to pay my parking, I had to pay $6. It's $3/hr, and we parked 3 hr. Since the first hr is already free, shouldn't I only have to pay $3? I've been hoodwinked.

Open from 7 am to 10 pm, located at the Disney Hotel, anyone can visit, no need to be a hotel guest or have park passes. There's a patio, indoor seating, and a bar set in a tropical setting, and the hotel pools provide a relaxing atmosphere. We had a pleasant experience recently during early dinner. We spent most of the day in the parks and wanted to get the new Dole Whip POG with a 15th Anniv. souvenir cup, grab a couple of specialty drinks, and order some food. We found a table inside and ordered food by mobile. We went to the bar to get the Dole Whip and cocktails. We didn't wait too long in line before placing our orders with the bartender. I got the Hippopotomaitai without the souvenir cup. It was refreshing and hit the spot. My BIL got the Uh Oa!, without the souvenir cup, and it was a two-person cocktail. No wonder it was $29. The Dole Whip POG (Pineapple, Orange, and Guava juice) was an instant classic. Always a good time for a Dole Whip. For food, we shared the Tempura-battered Green Beans, which were delicious and came with a Togarashi Aïoli to dip. I ordered the Angus Hawaiian Cheeseburger (without the cheese) with sweet potato fries. The burger was great, with thick bacon and a well-seasoned, well-cooked beef patty. A very flavorful burger overall. The sweet potatoes were average, but the portions were generous. You can grab additional condiments at the counter, including ranch. The service and staff were kind. Magic Key discounts also apply here. Unfortunately, they don't validate parking for Downtown Disney (Simba Parking Lot). Doesn't hurt to ask the cast members if the rule has changed. You can also walk from the Mickey and Friends parking structure to the hotel. We tried breakfast a couple of years ago. My last review reflected that experience, but we may have to give it another morning visit after the recent positive experience. I saw a few new breakfast items that sound interesting.

While the ambiance was great being nestled outdoor alongside the fun architecture of the hotel, the food and service fell flat. We had to ask for water to begin with, and had to ask for refills afterwards. Our French toast was so flat it didn't task like anything more than stale bread even after dousing it with the syrup provided. Despite finishing my $6 orange juice early into our meal, the waiter went to fill it up with water when we first initially asked for water, stopped realizing it wasn't a water cup, and never proceeded to inquire about whether I wanted any more orange juice. The bacon, eggs, and potatoes were saving graces for our meal which I ended up sharing with my wife. $57 before tip for these two plates, an OJ, and cup of black coffee. Yikes.

I think they had put our food on hold to bring everything out at the same time, but that resulted in some food being warm and others cold like it had been sitting out. We were too tired to complain and just ate everything as is. I got the Caesar salad and goodness gracious that was a waste of money. It was lettuce, 2 small pieces of anchovy, like 2 small Cherry tomatoes cut in half, cheese and dressing.
