Summary

The food is fresher and better quality than most other character meals—some is grown right inside the Land Pavilion! Everything is served family-style and is all-you-care-to-eat. The retro-Disney setting is worth experiencing at least once. (Garden Grill has served up breakfast in the past, and it may return in the future if EPCOT opens earlier in the day.)

Setting and Atmosphere

The setting of the Garden Grill is a bit dated, but it's now dated enough that it's become charming again. The floor revolves slowly as you peer down into the unseen side of scenes from Living with the Land, the Land Pavilion’s ride-through attraction. At about the time you finish a meal, you’ve revolved once, past scenes of a desert, a rainforest, and a farm—and an otherwise hidden view of inside the farmhouse. The constant crowing of a “rooster” and dog barks are questionable highlights. Much more exciting for kids are the Disney characters—Mickey, Chip ’n’ Dale, and Pluto make stops at tables for photo ops and greetings, a far easier way for the kids to get photos and autographs than standing in line outside, albeit a more expensive one.

House Specialties

For dinner, beef fillet, turkey breast with stuffing and gravy, and sustainable fish of the day; buttermilk mashed potatoes, veggies, and salads made with ingredients from The Land's greenhouses. Dessert is a seasonal cobbler with vanilla-bean whipped cream The kids' menu includes turkey breast with whole-grain rice pilaf, mac and cheese, chicken drumsticks, sweet potato sticks, and broccoli.
