3 tasting terraces: how are they different; the same?

[julesann]

I just realized that there are 3 tasting terraces in DCA: Alfresco, Mendocino and Sonoma. I thought there was only one. When I look at the map it looks like they are all in the same general vicinity. What are the differences between them and which one do you prefer--I am not sure which one I have visited now.

Hi! I found this explanation on the Disneyland site:
Alfresco Tasting Terrace - Enjoy your favorite wines along with small Italian-inspired appetizers on the second-floor terrace overlooking Cars Land's Ornament Valley.

Mendocino Terrace – Wine sampling that’s overseen by a wine expert. You can buy wine by the glass or bottle, and enjoy your selection at the counter or under the shady trees of the plaza. The experts are there to answer your questions about the products offered.

Sonoma Terrrace - Sample of diverse selection of craft beer, plus enjoy gourmet meat and cheese plates.

I love the Alfresco Terrace. It's small and has a nice view out over Radiator Springs etc. They have a limited menu of appetizers but it's one of our favorite spots to hang out. As I recall, it isn't open in winter.

Thank you so much Dizme! The pictures are a great help as are the descriptions. I see I've only been to the Mendocino Terrace--time to try the Alfresco!

My wife and I like the Alfresco Terrace too. It’s really nice at night, and is more quiet and relaxing. Plus the appetizers are really good.
