Hey Guys I haven't been to Disney for years, and ever since my gf told me she never went before, now I have to take her. My plan is to take her to the park in the morning at around 11-12 ish. and leave at about 11-12 ish at night. Could you guys recommend me any great restaurants found in the park, and when/or if i should make reservations for them. Also it would be awesome if you guys gave me a plan or a way to navigate the park to enjoy it to the max. Price doesn't matter (This isn't something we do every day and her happiness is important to me.) My Girlfriend likes casual, fancy, and fun dining. Thanks :) p.s. can someone please also explain to me about the fast passes and which rides I should get them for? thank you very much. I'll rate as high as possible and it helps to be as through as you can.

There are some good restaurants at Disneyland. i would recommend the Blue Bayou restaurant, it's really famous and it has a view of the Pirates of the Caribean ride, it's themed to New Orleans and you must make reservations in advance. A good touring plan is to get there early, the park opens usually at 8, make sure to visit all the lands, Disneyland is one big circle with a hub in the middle, surrounding the hub are the lands of Disneyland and there are major attractions that you must not miss, the Jungle Cruise, indiana Jones, Pirates of the Caribean, Haunted Mansion, Splash Mountain, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, Sleeping Beauty castle walk through yes you can go inside the castle and to your left right after you go through the castle is an entrance to a walk through in the castle, don't miss it, also there's Dumbo, Peter Pan's ride, Alice in Wonderland, Matterhorn, it's a small World, Roger Rabbit Car Toon spin, Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage, Buzzlightyear astro blasters, Star Tours, Captain EO and Space Mountain an must do!!! The only three shows you must not miss are: the parade which happens twice a day, the fireworks at night, and the Fantasmic show which is at night and there are usually two shows, recommend seeing the later show and is a must see!!!!! As for the Fastpasses, which are free, use them for attractions that have waiting time that is over half an hour, the attractions with the longest lines are Indiana Jones ride, Roger Rabbit, and Space mountain, and i would definetly recommend you to use them.
Why spend money getting into Disneyland just to go to a nice restaurant? There are far better restaurants outside Disneyland than inside. When you go to Disneyland, go on the rides, see the shows and parades, etc., and just grab a bite to eat for lunch at one of the counters inside. Go to a restaurant some other time.
You can get a lot of helpful information from the official Disney website.
