Dreams do come true in Disneyland’s New Orleans Square! Tiana from Disney’s The Princess and the Frog is getting a new restaurant at Disneyland Park. The park’s current French Market Restaurant will be reimagined into Tiana’s Palace, like the Princess’ restaurant from the 2009 Walt Disney Animation Studios film.
The menu at the quick-service style restaurant in Anaheim, California will “feature authentic New Orleans flavors inspired by Tiana’s friends and adventures.”

The French Market Restaurant, as well as the Mint Julep Bar, will be closed starting February 17, 2023 to begin work on Tiana’s Palace, which is scheduled to open later this year alongside the Mint Julep Bar.

Splash Mountain at both Disneyland Park and the Magic Kingdom Park in Florida will be transformed into Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. The new ride inspired by The Princess and the Frog will take guests “on a journey inspired by the story and characters from the hit film, picking up where that story left off.”
