Travelers seeking holiday dining in Downtown Disney District can visit Patina Restaurant Group’s popular venues: Naples Ristorante E Bar and the new Paseo and Céntrico, two Mexican dining concepts led by Michelin-starred Chef Carlos Gaytán. Each offers seasonal events, holiday cocktails, and festive dishes for a memorable dining experience.
Naples Ristorante E Bar:
From Thanksgiving to Christmas, Naples offers “Breakfast with Santa,” where guests can meet Santa, enjoy a holiday breakfast, and participate in seasonal activities. Families with children under ten receive a stuffed animal and personalized stocking to take home.
Naples’ holiday drink specials include “Santa’s Margarita,” a festive mix with Asombroso Tequila, Chambord, peach schnapps, and cranberry juice; “Christmas Colada,” a tropical holiday drink with a candy cane rim; and the non-alcoholic “Sparkling Apple Cider Mocktail,” made with pomegranate juice and lemon. Seasonal dessert options include a Gingerbread Cannoli filled with gingerbread cream.
Paseo:
On December 5, 12, 19, and 26, Paseo hosts “Paseo Navidad: A Celebration of Holiday Flavors,” featuring a culinary demonstration and stories of traditional Mexican holiday foods, including tamales, Ponche Navideño (Mexican Christmas punch), and a seasonal dessert.
Throughout the season, Paseo serves Ponche Navideño, a classic Mexican punch. Guests can enjoy a three-course meal on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with a main course of Cornish game hen. Seasonal cocktails at Paseo include “Nieve Margarita,” crafted with Olmeca Altos and Alma Finca, and “Café Invierno,” a Mexican take on Irish coffee.
Céntrico:
At Céntrico, Chef Gaytán’s casual Mexican restaurant in the Downtown Disney District, guests can enjoy seasonal drinks like “Cancun Vacación,” a tropical-inspired cocktail with pineapple and passionfruit; “Chili Chada,” a spiked horchata; and a non-alcoholic Mexican Hot Chocolate.
With holiday-themed dining options, cocktails, and special events, Naples, Paseo, and Céntrico offer festive dining experiences in the Downtown Disney District.
