Today I had the chance to make it down to Disney California Adventure to check out the new Paradise Garden Grill and Boardwalk Pizza & Pasta restaurants.
At times it didn't even feel like I was in Disney California Adventure. I am loving the restaurant area. The only down side that I can see is when it rains. There is no indoor restaurant seating. And the covered areas are all towards the front, which means food may get wet when trying to get to a dry area. I wonder if it will be a major problem.
Walking into the new patio section of the restaurants
Looking at the shaded seating area
Looks comfortable
And there is the exit to Goofy's Sky School. It just doesn't belong in the newly furnished patio. If only there were able to dress it up to match in some way
Looking inside what used to be P.T. Fleas Market. Now the structure sits near the restrooms and Paradise Garden Grill. It has yet to be furnished
Looking at the chandelier
And small fans
From the structure, looking back towards the entrance to the patio
Lights hanging from the trees
The lush area hides most of Silly Symphony Swings and some of Mickey's Fun Wheel
There was a performance taking place at the stage
Restrooms
The activity taking place outside the patio section
More patio section
Jumpin' Jellyfish attraction is almost hidden as well
Even with the walls down, it's pretty much almost impossible to get a clear shot of the restaurant title ha ha
Stepping inside
Looking out
To the immediate right of the entrance
To the immediate left
So that's where the idea of the arches came from!
From the Pasta section looking towards Salads
Beautiful!
Do you know what I wished for? I wished that my little Pinocchio might be a real boy
Looking from Salads towards Pasta
Looking at some of the art hanging up

Looking in towards Pizza and Pasta from the Parade Gates
Found a table to sit and eat
Lovely atmosphere entertainment
And then look who walks by! President of Disneyland Resort... George K

Da Plane!
Crazy planes
I don't know if I would want to see any Cast Member enter or exit this while I am ordering
And now some evening shots of the Paradise Pier Restaurants. It has been known that the area was behind schedule and so some of the lighting isn't completed as of these pictures. But I am sure within time, the lighting will be complete
Until next time...
Thanks for the update Mint. Been a while since I've been back here. The page seems much more zippy these days. Whatever changed it's a nice improvement (same computer and browser on my side).
