Dining At Lamplight Lounge in Disney California Adventure

Dining At Lamplight Lounge in Disney California Adventure
Although the Lamplight Lounge has been opened for a while, timing had not been right for me to visit. We have been looking for reservations to eat there, but everything had been booked on all the dates we wanted to visit. Believe me, you might need to try to get your reservations at least 90 days before your trip. It is worth it.
The Lamplight Lounge is located in Pixar Pier. It is the restaurant that replaced out beloved Cove Bar and Ariel's Grotto.  One of the few places where you can find adult beverages at the park and a great dinning experience for foodies.

Make a reservation so you can get a seat in downstairs  lounge

I would recommend that you make a reservation. They are booked almost three months in advance. They do have same day seating, however the line can be long and you will be seated up-stairs, missing all the cute Pixar decor and the new vibes of the restaurant. The second floor also  a limited menu. The ambiance downstairs is great. You can see hand drawn art  from the many Pixar movies, and the decorations are super cute.

They offer the following menus
  • Bites (Upper and Lower Level)
  • Bigger Bites (Lower Level Only)

Crab and Tuna Roll:  ​Stone Crab with Avocado, Jicama, Yellowfin Tuna, and Fireball-Yuzu Sauce.  $19.00
The fireball-yuzu sauce was spicy, but not too hot to handle.  This didn't disappoint.

Salmon PLT: Grilled Salmon with crispy Pancetta, Romaine Lettuce, Roasted Plum Tomato, Lemon-Bacon Aïoli, and Toasted Focaccia served with Malted Fries.  $23.00
The crisp pancetta really provided a nice level of  flavor to the sandwich. The 
Aïoli sauce was perfect.

Overall I think that the Lamplight Lounge is a great addition to Disney California Adventure. I was really sad when the Cove Bar was closing, but I am pleased with the replacement. If you loved the lobster nachos, you can still get them here as well as some of the old menu drinks. We will be back to try more drinks and food for sure.

We are going next February. We don't see a place to make reservations then. Is it on the website or the application?
