Uva Bar & Cafe is always busy and for good reason! The food, drinks, and ambiance are so much fun in Downtown Disney. It's a great place to get sit down service, delicious food like burgers, salads, and more and for fun drinks, especially if you're not planning on going into Disneyland or DCA for the day. Joe III, the manager, stopped by our table to say hi and was so kind.

We usually get the carne asada fries and arepas great options especially paired with beer!! We had the pleasure to meet Joe the 3rd tonight. And Rene and Alex have been taking care of use for 10YR!! They always make our experience a wonderful one and because of that we continue our tradition to either start or end our night here, no matter what the occasion! Thank you for being so wonderful to us all of these years!! We truly appreciate you !!!

Food - I ordered the California fish tacos and it comes with a side of sweet potato fries.Sadly, I was a bit disappointed because the restaurant itself has good reviews. It was a good sized plate and fish was a good size and nice and soft. Batter was thin and crispy. So we're the fries. A bit too crispy for my liking though. Overall, the food was just very bland. There was a drizzle of sauce but that barely touched the surface. Just not a pleasant lunch. Loved the outdoor patio though especially with a nice California sun and wind. Staff was good and quick and checked up on me a couple of times. May be good to try other entrees.

This place lived up to the good things I've read! The calamari is a must! We ordered the fish tacos and impossible burger, they were so tasty and cooked perfectly! Service was fast and the inside of the restaurant is very clean and well kept. We would love to return to try other things on the menu!

The food and ambiance is great. We were blown away by CeCe's service. Even though we ordered a small amount of food, she still continued to provide fabulous service, and extremely hospitable.

Visiting Disney and stopped here for lunch. Didn't want to pay the park prices for lunch. Food was amazing, reasonably priced and service by Cece was extremely helpful.

I'm rating this place solely on their drinks, since I didn't have any food this time around. I ordered an old fashion as that's my go to drink unless a specialty drink catches my eye. The bartender as great and quick service but the old fashion was a miss for me. Definitely overpriced as I can find a better old fashion within downtown Disney for the same price. The reason I'm giving it 4 stars is because the service and location and its surroundings are unbeatable. This is the place to chill and relax after a long day at the parks or just to catch a quick breather

The circular bar and outdoor patio bar sits in the middle of downtown Disney. It's conveniently located if you want a quick drink or snack to eat. Service was very good and welcoming. We ordered the arapes corn tortilla with pork. It's like mini sopes or thick tostada. It was very tasty and flavorful with four arapes. We also ordered the grill cheese and soup. The sandwich could use a bit more cheese but overall it's a great dish especially in cold weather. Overall the patio restaurant is a great place to relax and fill up.

Definitely a nice people watching spot. We tried the holiday drinks which were not very good. Not sure about the food but definitely just go for your usual cocktail or take advantage of the happyHours. Stray away from the specialty cocktails.
We were a party of ten, at two tables, and our waiter managed it all perfectly. Lots of burgers and sandwiches, all excellent.

We had a great brunch at Uva! The location is perfect for people watching and the festive Disney-esque music put us in a cheerful mood. Our server was as warm & helpful as could be, and our food was delicious.I had the manchego salad with dates, apple, spiced nuts and a rich toasted walnut vinaigrette - outstanding! The hummus appetizer was super tasty, and the winter cocktail Santa and the Beach was strong and excellent: a coconut margarita with pretty holiday garnish.

Best bar for cocktails in the LA Disneyland properties, and the food was pretty good too. Wait times can be long, and the food service was a bit slow when they were busy.They had fun Halloween themed drinks, I’d recommend!

Went for brunch at 10:30am with family. Great location but service was terribly slow - I had to ask repeatedly for water and refills for my kids' drinks. Server at other tables seemed to be much quicker, so might have just been bad luck. Very limited selection with some decent offerings, but the basic breakfast food took 30 minutes to get to us, and they ran out of my daughter's selection - which we only found out about when they came to our table missing a plate of food. Comped us her last minute meal which was appreciated, but she definitely would have preferred the only-non egg kids choice on the limited menu. Had a wonderful experience everywhere else while visiting Disney, so not sure what the issue was, but would recommend a hotel breakfast or something in the parks over this option.

This is a great location for anyone whose looking for a lunch break near the park. It was an easy place to find, and relatively quick wait to sit down time. The Beer-cheese burger was my choice as the burger of the month, and was accompanied nicely with truffle fries. The burger was also highlighted with sauerkraut which is some of my favorite food. The staff was kind and I look forward to coming back!
