Lunch at Lamplight Lounge at DCA
During our day at Disney California Adventure, we had lunch at Lamplight Lounge. I made reservations in advance and we were lucky to get one. This restaurant, located on Pixar Pier, is probably the most popular spot in eat in DCA. This is a sit-down restaurant, serving gastropub and creative cocktails. The theme is Pixar Animation. We loved the Pixar pictures on the wall and the other fun theming around the restaurant. The view though, was my favorite part. There's a beautiful view of the Incredicoaster and Mickey's Fun Wheel on Pixar Pier. After you enter the lobby, you'll be led down a circular staircase into the dining room and bar area. Don't miss the display of the striking Luxo Balls (the iconic yellow Pixar Balls).
Another fun part of Lamplight Lounge is their secret drink menu! We tried a Fun Wheel and a Sea Witch. My Fun Wheel had Vodka, Gin, Light Rum, X-Fusion Passion fruit Liqueur, Blue Curacao, Sweet and Sour, and soda water. The drink was gorgeous with four layers of colors you mix up yourself. The drink was strong and refreshing, too. My husband's Sea Witch had Raspberry Vodka, Blue Curacao, Peach Schnapps, Cranberry juice, and soda water.
To eat, I had the popular Nachos, but with chicken instead of lobster. The nachos were huge and probably for two people, but I was hungry from walking and I ate most of them. My husband had the Salmon Poke, which had a pretty presentation and he thought tasted really fresh. They have a kid's menu with a couple of choices. My sons ate the Grilled Chicken Tenders with Fries and the Mac and Cheese and Fries.
We were seated at a table for four in the center of the dining room. The most coveted spots have views of Pixar Pier. Lamplight Lounge was a nice spot to eat, hang out, and sip a cocktail during our day at DCA!
