House of Blues

It seems like a remember that this was closing in DtD but it is still on the Disneyland site so is it closed or did I make that up

It's moving to the GardenWalk. No date has been set yet.

I saw on Facebook that their last day in DTD is May 31st.

I saw the same date in this article from the OC Register:

No opening date for GardenWalk was announced (other than "later this summer"), but I imagine they'd want to open over there as soon as possible.

Ok thanks! We are going the middle of June and I thought that would be a good place for Fathers Day...guess I will come up with something else!!

Is River Belle Terrace good? He is sort of picky, he eats burgers he does like things like ribs, he won't eat seafood or steak im not so sure he will even like the cajun food....if it isn't that great does anyone have any other suggestions?

I liked River Belle Terrace; the ribs were very good (very similar to the ones that they used have at the Big Thunder BBQ). I posted my photos and mini-review in the dining thread:

I also really like Carnation Cafe.

Are you open to leaving Disney property? Look at Slater's 50/50 for burgers. Also, Morton's by the Convention Center has burgers for lunch and sliders on the bar menu. There are also several places in GardenWalk you could look at.

I was going to say Carnation Cafe, too! It has a good menu that covers all the basics and gets consistently good reviews, which I think says a lot. The Main Street ambiance is fun, too, especially if you sit outside on the patio. I had the chicken fried chicken and it was tender and flavorful. My picky husband had the bacon sourdough melt and thought it was kind of greasy, but tasted good. I like that the menu is big enough to have a few choices that sound good! Most Disney menus seem so small and limited.

In DTD, maybe ESPN Zone? The menu is full of ribs and burgers and pork sandwiches that sound like they'd work for him. But I don't know if I'd ever personally head in there because the ambience and theme is NOT my thing! And oddly, no one seems to mention it on Disboards... Could it be worse than Rainforest Cafe?? Maybe it's just waiting to be discovered!

We ate ESPN our first trip and we liked it and the kids liked the arcade area

You would need to drive to Slater's 50/50.

Anyone know what's going to take the place of House of Blues in DTD?

Yes, it's kind of an exciting prospect to see what goes in. Hopefully it will be a great, unique restaurant.
