The information below is provided for historical reference.
Location
Disney's Contemporary Resort, on the ground floor near the check-in desk.
Summary
It will be transformed into a new restaurant called Steakhouse 71.
Through September 10, The Wave's breakfast menu is being served at California Grill on the top floor of the Contemporary.
Setting and Atmosphere
On the first floor of the Contemporary just past the front desk, you walk into The Wave’s lounge, with the dining room to the left—the lounge is usually packed after 5 p.m., and it’s hard to snag a seat. The adjoining dining room has the feel of an upscale coffee shop, with wooden tables and white-linen napkins.
House Specialties
The Seared Gnocchi with forest mushrooms, sweet potatoes, rainbow swiss chard, and brown butter parmesan-sage cream, this dish is rich and full of comforting flavors. For dessert the Chocolate Flight (with Chocolate Croissant Bread Pudding, Brownie Creme Brulee, and German Chocolate Cake) is irresistible.
Other Recommendations
Pork belly with local eggs, charcuterie board, nosugar- added crème brûlée.
