Palm Breeze Bar — Restaurant in Anaheim

Racism is alive at the Palm Breeze bar.

Came here with staff and I walked away for a moment and the African members of the staff were asked what they’re doing there (my woman with red puffy hair) then the manager came over and told us that there is a 90 minute time limit on tables which not posted at any of the websites or reservations sites. The manager was very pleasant and I let him know he needs to contact upper management about posting those policies because that has to be posted legally.

Kind of a strange juxtaposition until you remember you are still at the Disney Hotel. The prices here are expensive but in-line with what you expect at a resort restaurant.

Shhh… This is our new favorite hideaway a Disney. Don’t tell...

The Baseline: For a in hotel restaurant lounge it must have a good drink menu, excellent appetizers, and a stellar staff to bring out the experience.

Food: The food was really good here. We had the Ahi Tuna Tataki, cheese fry poutine, and cocktail chicken wings. The ahi tuna had a great outer spice rub, the wings were cooked properly, and the poutine was well prepared (even though they a bag fries).

Drinks were great! Orange Bourbon Punch was delicious, Tropical Shandy was fruity, and the Chili Mango was a great alcohol slushy.

Service: Awesome Disney Service! Carmen was a great waitress and the water glasses were always full.

Ambiance: This is an outside bar with a Palm Desert feel. There was space heaters and had a great...
