About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Romantic
  • Charming
The Cellar is the perfect setting for an intimate and romantic evening of fine dining. In 1969, artistic craftsmen of Disneyland fame created a romantic rendezvous in the cellar of the old California Hotel. Intimate and cozy, the dining room is elegant amid structured arches and cave-like walls that are deecorated with wine casks and silver lanterns. Culinary excellence abounds with only the finest and freshest foods prepared in a lighter version of classical French cuisine and finely crafted cocktails which set a benchmark for all of Southern California!

If you are unable to obtain a reservation for the evening, please visit our sister restaurant which is located across the courtyard. https://www.opentable.com/r/hidalgo-fullerton

    Very good, accommodating service. Food was very good. We had reserved for 8 with non-refundable prizes fix reservations for Easter and 2 of our party were no shows. Management allowed us to credit our drinks to the no-show reservations, which was decent and the right thing to do, but not guaranteed. We were appreciative. An altogether very nice Easter brunch.

    The staff member that initially greeted us was a little rude, but beyond that once we got our table the service was welcoming. Great experience, will be back again.

    We had an excellent experience thanks to our amazing waitress, Jordan. She was incredibly attentive, explained the menu thoroughly, and provided outstanding service throughout our visit. The lobster bisque was one of the best I’ve ever had, and the bone marrow was, as always, absolutely delicious. Amazing food, great drinks, and truly exceptional service. Thank you again, Jordan!
