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.

Shin-Sen-Gumi Yakitori@Gardena ★★

My Go-To Restaurant for Yakitori. Authentic Food and Reasonable Price. Tried their Agedashi Eggplant and loved it. Yakitori quality could be a bit inconsistent, depending on the Yakitori Chef on duty. Don't forget to ask for their cabbage – $1 during lunch and free w/ unlimited refill during dinner. Best to pair the Yakitori with Draft Beer to balance out the heat and dryness. $3 reward for every $50 spent plus $5 birthday reward if you join their loyalty program. Walk in only. Arrive early to write down your name on the list. No wait around 3-5pm on a Saturday or 3pm on a Sunday. Best seating is at the bar, where the food comes out right fresh from the grill to your plate. Hot Tea $1. Free parking in lot.
