Napa Rose@Disneyland Resort ★★★

Fantastic Chef's Counter. Very difficult to book. Napa Rose may not be consistent with its quality, but this time was the best. Great service. The Chefs definitely brought up the quality of the food to another level in fine dining. 8-course Chef's Counter Tasting Menu is $200 per person. Took 3 hours. Have to call 2 months in advance to book (no more e-mails) Chef's Counter. For July reservations, you will have to leave a voice message on May 1st at 12:00am. Corkage fee is now $50. Regular reservations are made on the Disneyland App, but it gets filled very quickly as well. Complimentary validated 5 hours parking at the Grand Californian Hotel.

Victoria & Albert's@Disney World ★★★

Best Fine Dining Restaurant in Disney. Excellent tasting menu. Located at Disney's Grand Floridian Resort. Amazing Zero Proof (non-alcoholic beverage) pairing by the talented & friendly Chef Gabriella from Norway. She knew that we were coming, so she personally came to our table to introduce one of her creations to us. Such a lovely treat. Her world traveling adventures (as seen on her IG stories) inspired her to create an international palette. Love the story behind her creations like the Cherry Cola. She grew up in the mountains. Her parents were reindeer farmers, and she would always have Cola. Pastry Chef Kristine Farmer. Our server Christopher was nice. $375 (Chef's Dégustation Menu with Spanish Carabinero Prawn & A5 Miyazaki Wagyu)/$295 Dining Room Menu per person. White Truffles supplement $85. Zero Proof pairing $145.
