Disneyland’s award-winning Napa Rose will need to spend a little longer in the oven before the “luxurious transformation” of the wine country-themed fine dining restaurant with an exhibition kitchen and chef’s counter is ready to be served to diners next year.
Disneyland has delayed the reopening of the Napa Rose at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel in Anaheim until early 2026, according to the Disney Parks Blog.

Napa Rose temporarily closed in April for a major refurbishment that was initially announced to stretch through fall 2025.
“To deliver the highest quality experience possible, the restaurant is now slated to reopen in early 2026,” according to the Disney Parks Blog. “More details will be announced at a later date.”
The Napa Rose transformation will extend to the menu while maintaining the 1,500-label wine collection.

Through the years, Napa Rose has picked up numerous honors — receiving the AAA Four Diamond award many times over and making Gayot’s short list of Best California Cuisine restaurants in Orange County. The Zagat Guide once rated Napa Rose second in the state behind only the French Laundry in Yountville. The Forbes Travel Guide awarded the restaurant four stars in 2024.

From its earliest days, the wine-obsessed Napa Rose encouraged every staffer — from the hostesses and bussers to the cooks and food runners — to take sommelier training.
The former dinner menu included Peking Partridge, Braised Wild Boar, Winter Goose Pot Pie and Colorado Lamb Loin. The fan-favorite Smiling Tiger Salad will remain after the menu makeover.
The Vintner’s Table six-course prix fixe menu paired with a wine flight used to set you back $293 before the restaurant closed for renovations.
