We explained that we wanted to eat in the lounge and waited for an escort up in the private elevator for the California Grill.\u00a0 When we arrived on the 15<sup>th<\/sup> floor we were amazed by the wall-size wine cooler filled with over 300 different types of wines, mostly from California.<\/p>\n<p>Since we arrived pretty early, between 5 &amp; 5:30 pm, we got a prime seat by the window with an awesome view of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.themagicforless.com\/disney-vacations\/walt-disney-world\/magic-kingdom-park\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Magic Kingdom<\/a> and Seven Seas Lagoon\u00a0with the surrounding resorts.\u00a0\u00a0 Our server, Rachel, came over to take our drink orders \u2013 I ordered a glass of Riff pinot grigio and my husband Jared had a Orange Ave Wit.\u00a0 We also ordered 2 sushi rolls, the Dragon Roll &amp; California Combination roll.\u00a0 Both were outstanding.\u00a0 Another favorite is the Spicy Kazan roll, it definitely has a kick to it but it\u2019s really delicious!! \u00a0All items on the regular menu can be ordered while dining in the lounge.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_9506\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9506\"
