California Grill
This restaurant is my number 1 choice for best Disney World date night! The California Grill sits on the top floor of Disney’s Contemporary Resort. The restaurant’s interior is sleek and modern tying into the Contemporary vibe of the hotel. There is an onstage kitchen where world class chefs prepare your meal.
The menu offers something for everyone from Steaks, Seafood, and their famous Sushi.
Not only is the food top-notch but the restaurants views are the best on all of Disney property. Out the massive glass windows framing in the California Grill you get a birds-eye view of the Seven Seas lagoon and the Magic Kingdom Park!
This is also the best place to watch the Magic Kingdom fireworks from one of the 4 rooftop observation decks. If you have dined at the California Grill at any point during a given day you can use your dinner receipt as your ticket for reentry to the restaurant just before fireworks!
Narcoossee’s
Narcoossee’s sits right on the waterfront of the Seven Seas Lagoon at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa. Across the lagoon sits Cinderella’s castle, the perfect atmosphere for the evening. The menu offers everything from steaks, lobster and delicious seafood.
