California Grill
In July we will be celebrating my DS 16th birthday. I let him pick the restaurant and he picked California Grill. How's the food? What is the dress code?

Re: California Grill
Dress code is slacks, dress shorts, and collared shirt for men, dress, dress shorts, pants (easier to say what you can't wear - tank tops, graphic tees, cut-off shorts, or swimwear) for ladies. I don't believe they're very strict on the dress code, but I'd suggest meeting it.

Re: California Grill
Actually, the code has been "relaxed" from "resort casual" which was collared or golf shirts for men to include solid colored tee shirts, although often times you will see many diners at Cali Grill and Narc's wearing sport jackets and Dockers type slacks for men and casual and even less formal cocktail dresses for women.
What is allowable is cargo or pocket shorts like Columbia Sportswear. Cut off shorts and sleeveless shirts (for men) are not allowed at all and of course, no bare feet. The food is excellent. I should know, I've eaten up there 6 times and will be there again on my birthday.

Re: California Grill
The food is wonderful. Whenever I get to pick a special place to eat, Cali Grill is my choice. The view is awesome!! If you'll be having dinner around Wishes time, make sure you go out on the balcony to enjoy the show with music!

Re: California Grill
So cargo shorts and collared shirts for the teen boys will be fine?

Re: California Grill
Thank you all for your input. I am looking forward to our dinner. There will be eight of us celebrating DS 16th. I hope they make it special for him.

Re: California Grill
Definitely. But have him ditch the flip-flops/tennis shoes and go for something like Sperry Topsiders.

Re: California Grill
Make sure that his "celebration" is noted on your ADR. And just to make sure, when you check in at the podium, make sure they have it noted as well. It is a very nice place for a celebration, he is showing good taste at such an early age!!
