My husband and I went to California Grill during our trip this past November, we did not enjoy the food or atmosphere. We wanted a night to get away from the 6 other people/kids we were there with and have a nice quiet dinner. We were told to dress nice since it is an upscale restaurant. We left Animal Kingdom early so we would have time to shower and get dressed. We were very disappointed in the food and atmosphere. The food issue is our fault, we should have looked at the menu but the atmosphere we could not change. It was very crowded, many people were coming in straight from the parks with their cargo shots, flip flops, and back packs. It was very noisy, didn't expect a lot of kids there because of the prices but boy were we wrong. It's not the fact that there were kids there, it's the fact that the kids were loud and disruptive, the adults never said anything. It may not always be like that, maybe we were there on a bad night. Lesson learned, we paid $200 for a meal we were not impressed with and did not enjoy the atmosphere one bit. It also rained that night so the fireworks were canceled, lol. From now on we will look at the menu first, we usually do that but since so many people suggested it to us I guess we just went with it.
We are going back to Disney the first week of December this year and are looking forward to trying Narcoossee.
