Discover the New Dining Options at Downtown Disney District
Exciting news for foodies and entertainment enthusiasts! Downtown Disney District at the Disneyland Resort is expanding its offerings with new dining and entertainment options. The district already has a lot to offer, and there's even more to come. Let's take a look at what's new.
First up, there's the Parkside Market, a new collection of diverse culinary concepts that are set to open soon. The market will feature four unique offerings under one roof, brought to life by Levy.

Among them are Seoul Sister, a fast-casual Korean eatery that will serve Korean rice bowls with California twist;

Sip & Sonder, a Black women-owned café serving signature lattes, fresh treats, frozen drinks, and Caribbean-inspired bites;

and GG's Chicken Shop, which will offer a family-friendly menu of chicken sandwiches, salads, and classic dinner table sides.
There will also be a second-story bar that will offer great views and refreshing drinks, including signature craft cocktails and mocktails.

In addition to the Parkside Market, Downtown Disney is also getting a new stage and lawn, which will be perfect for special events, activities, and musical entertainment.
Looking ahead, there are even more exciting plans for the district. Din Tai Fung, a world-renowned Chinese restaurant known for its soup dumplings and noodles, is set to open soon. Additionally, Michelin-starred Chef Carlos Gaytán will bring his masterful Mexican cuisine to the district with Paseo and Céntrico. And last but not least, Porto's Bakery and Cafe will offer popular California-Cuban cheese rolls and pastries.
These new offerings and expansions demonstrate Downtown Disney's commitment to providing fresh and innovative experiences and making every visit special. So, get ready to indulge in some great food, enjoy some fantastic entertainment, and have a great time at Downtown Disney District.
