Atmosphere
Carthay Circle Restaurant is located on the second floor of the iconic reproduction of the Carthay Circle Theatre. The original Carthay Circle Theatre played a very significant role in the life of Walt Disney; it was the location where his first feature-length film, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, premiered in 1937. The décor of Carthay Circle Restaurant reflects the romance and refinement of Hollywood's Golden Age, including references to the accomplishments of Walt Disney and his original animators.
Seating is available in the main dining room, 2 open-air terraces and the Premiere Room, a private dining room that can accommodate parties of up to 12 people.
Lounge
The first floor of the Carthay Circle Theatre features the Carthay Circle Lounge, which serves appetizers, tapas and desserts, plus craft beer, California wines, seltzer sodas and specialty cocktails. Each cocktail is given exceptional attention to detail — including unique glassware and drink-specific ice.
