  The top restaurant in DCA. It is highly recommended to make a reservation ahead of time. The quality of the food, atmosphere, and service are impeccable. I have never had my glass of water refilled so fast, they have servers walking around ready to refill at any moment. The food was perfectly made and presented, everything tasted delicious and had big portions. Wonderfully decorated with lots of seating as well as private dining rooms.

  We had an amazing experience at Carthay Circle Restaurant. From the moment we arrived, the service truly stood out—especially thanks to Allison. She could tell our daughter needed a break from the heat and went out of her way to find us a table, even though we didn’t have a reservation. That level of awareness and kindness immediately set the tone for our visit. What made it even more impressive was how she handled our growing group. It started as just my wife, daughter, and me, but when my brother and his family joined, we assumed they wouldn’t be able to sit with us. Allison stepped in again without hesitation and brought over extra chairs so we could all enjoy the meal together. On top of the exceptional hospitality, the food and cocktails were both fantastic. Overall, it was one of those experiences that really makes a day at Disneyland Resort even more special. Huge thanks to Allison for going above and beyond—we truly felt taken care of.

  Overall wonderful experience at this restaurant! Be sure to reserve as this place is always a favorite. They do change menus so it won't always be the same. Staff here is super friendly & professional, I felt very welcomed. The entire meal was delicious as well. I would only say my cioppino was only a tad bit salty. Otherwise the dinner was very memorable with beautiful decor inside to gaze at.

  Food: 3/5 Service: 3/5 Ambiance: 3.5/5 Portion to Price: 2/5 Overall: Came here for a nice sit down dinner. The extended review... Food: Duck Schnitzel- 3/5 - An interesting dish. Definitely wouldn't have imagined something like this. Since I'm a big fan of duck I went for this dish. Pretty standard fare. Service: 3/5 - Standard service. Ambiance: 3.5/5 - We sat outside on the patio since we didn't have a reservation. The outside wasn't as glamourous but the interior was definitely nice. Portion to Price: 2/5 - Pricing was a little pricier since you are at a sit down restaurant in the park.

  We had a reservation for March 25 at 5:50 p.m. We wound up being bogged down in extreme traffic on the freeway and decided it was best to cancel. We tried to cancel at 3:30 p.m. through the main Disneyland number; we couldn't get through to Carthay Circle. We were informed that we would be charged a fee to cancel because we were too close to the time of our reservation. The time we tried to call, 3:15 or 3:30, was well within the time period. We should have been okay. I don't think this was appropriate. Please reconsider.
