Traveling to Anaheim next week for a meeting and will have time for one dinner with business associates. Can someone recommend an upscale spot? Price is not a concern, but it must have a good wine list and must be in Anaheim.

Thanks.

Napa Rose in the Grand Californian hotel in Disneyland. Superb. Also Catal in Downtown Disney. Haven't been in 35 years or more but Mr Stox used to be good.

If you are traveling via LAX, I recommend a visit to Encounter. Obviously not for your business meeting, just for a fun meal.

Where did you end up? Napa Rose and Catal in Downtown Disney are both very good, my favorite is Napa Rose. :)

A great place that I found in Anaheim thanks to Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives is called Mama Cozza's. It's an old-school family-style Italian restaurant where just about everything is good. They also have a few house sauces that use the house red sauce as a base. The best one is their spiced up baby clam red sauce. It has additions of raw minced garlic and sauteed Italian sausage to give it a nice kick. I think they even have a private room in the back if you want some privacy for your meeting.
