Disneyland’s award-winning Napa Rose will soon swing open its doors following a 10-month renovation that retained the California Craftsman design and rustic elegance while completely reimagining the 25-year-old wine country-themed fine dining restaurant.
Napa Rose hosted a media preview on Tuesday, Feb. 3 ahead of the grand reopening on Friday, Feb. 6 at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel.

Napa Rose closed in April 2025 for a “luxurious transformation” that took longer than expected — with the initial return date delayed from fall 2025 to early 2026.
