I will say Disney is doing a great job in keeping the cuisine side of things updated very well.

Maybe if Everest cost an extra $39.95 per person they'd bother fixing it.

Good. The restaurant has been outdated for years, looking like a 90's Wolfgang Puck restaurant.

It's actually $89 plus tax. Isn't that the only reason people go to AK?

I keed, I keed.

Any movement on this refurb yet? What can we expect?

 

[Skipper Justin]

Well the longtime sushi chef that worked there has retired, so I wonder if they will keep the sushi or just change it up.

It was open when we went for our 10th anniversary this past Friday, but oir server mentioned she was excited she was transferring to the resort her husband works at this week.

No movement on the refurb yet. My roomate who works at The Contemporary as a food handler told me last night that the shipments to California Grill have slowed to almost nothing. Expect the restaurant to,be closing for it's remodel very soon :look:

My neighbor is one of the high up managers at that restaurant and I have known about this for awhile. He is really excited about it and I believe he said January, so it should be soon.

I've never had the pleasure of eating at California Grill. I've barely seen pictures of the place. However, this does look nice and, as it should be, very contemporary. After seeing what has been happening to WDW menus though lately, i'm not that optimistic that they won't try and really scale things down for the DDP.

Cali grill holds so many special memories for me and my family, I love the restaurant the way it was so any thing they do will have to be special. Whilst the photos look nice it will be the ambieance which will sells it, so I guess we will wait and see.Should all be done by the time of my next trip but getting a tablecould be a tough call. Thanks for posting the photos

We always eat at Cali Grill when we visit ( 10 years) We won't get the chance this year but I think the new look is great , was a long time coming and welcome it. We will have something to look forward to for our DD's graduation vacation V&A as well.
