On this early (but undated) menu posted on the Disney fan blog Magic Feather Memories, there are items like Crevettes Bayou, which were “Petite Bayou Shrimps with pineapple in cream sauce” for 85 cents and Seafood Creole (“King crab meat, Bayou shrimps and whitefish in a Cajun sauce of green peppers, tomatoes and celery on rice pilaf” for $3.25). What you would have seen on that menu would be similar to a fine dining restaurant in New Orleans.

The restaurant isn’t just themed like Pirates of the Caribbean, or nearby to the attraction. To start, it’s the finest dining in Disneyland Park (outside of Club 33, the private club above New Orleans Square that costs $33,000 in initiation fees and requires a multi-year purgatory on a waiting list to be considered for membership).īut the other part of what makes Blue Bayou so special is that it’s the only place in Disneyland where you can sit down for a nice meal and still feel like you’re on a ride. But part of Blue Bayou’s massive appeal is the restaurant itself. Part of the problem, to be sure, is Disneyland’s ongoing staffing problem, which is limiting dining capacity in restaurants and therefore slimming down reservation availability.
