There’s something new on the menu at Napa Rose, and it’s good news for Disneyland Resort guests who want a little more flexibility when planning a special dinner. The signature restaurant at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa has introduced a new seasonal à la carte menu, giving diners the option to choose individual dishes rather than committing to a full prix fixe experience.
The new offerings are available alongside Napa Rose’s existing seasonal prix fixe menu, with dishes inspired by California wine country and ingredients that highlight the flavors of fall.
What’s New on the Napa Rose Menu?
The fall menu features a variety of appetizers, entrées, and desserts, including some interesting combinations that go well beyond traditional California cuisine.
First-course options include diver scallops with red grapes and an applewood-smoked bacon emulsion, along with an autumn pear and goat cheese tart finished with tangerine and local honey.
For the second course, guests can choose from dishes such as truffle potato gnocchi with delicata squash and wild mushrooms or Orvia Duck “Crisp Cannolo” with citrus-mascarpone, fig, and apricot.
The entrée selections include hazelnut-crusted Kurobuta pork loin, Creekstone Farms filet mignon with braised short rib, and saddle of Colorado lamb served with butternut squash and medjool date mole. There’s also an oak-roasted poblano chili relleno filled with mozzarella and lentils.
For those celebrating something special or simply looking for a memorable meal, Napa Rose offers tableside presentations featuring a 32-ounce Black Angus Prime tomahawk ribeye or roasted whole Mediterranean sea bream with green Thai curry.
And don’t forget dessert! The seasonal selections include an heirloom pumpkin dessert with fromage blanc crémeux and molasses crumble, an Apple Orchard dessert featuring brown butter croissant and cold-smoked vanilla ice cream, and a Valrhona chocolate bar with hazelnut praline.
The Napa Rose Bar and Lounge Offers More Casual Dining
One of the nice things about Napa Rose is that you don’t necessarily need to plan an elaborate dinner to enjoy its food.
The restaurant’s bar and lounge welcomes walk-in guests, subject to availability, and offers a separate à la carte menu with smaller bites and substantial dishes.
Some highlights include the Laughing Tiger, featuring tamari-glazed prime beef, crispy shrimp fritter, and green papaya salad, along with Hawaiian ahi tuna tataki served with cashew-chili crunch and yuzu ponzu.
Other choices include Burgundy truffle Orvia duck melt with Comté cheese and duck fat-roasted potatoes, roasted heirloom half chicken, and a 32-ounce tomahawk ribeye that’s perfect for sharing.
The lounge also serves specialty cocktails, wines from Napa Rose’s extensive collection, and selections from the whiskey library.
Reservations and Dining Options
Guests can still enjoy the seasonal prix fixe menu in the main dining room and expanded outdoor terrace. Napa Rose also offers Chef’s Counter experiences and private dining options.
Advance reservations are strongly recommended for the main dining room and terrace and can be made through NapaRose.com. Same-day reservations may be available, depending on availability.
With the addition of the à la carte menu, guests have more ways to experience one of Disneyland Resort’s signature restaurants, whether they’re planning a special occasion or simply want to enjoy a favorite dish without ordering a full multi-course meal.
