Garden Grill Restaraunt - Disney Dining with "Spin"

I recently had the delightful opportunity to dine at the Garden Grill Restaurant in EPCOT, and it proved to be an extraordinary experience. Every aspect, from the atmosphere to the cuisine, exceeded expectations.

Situated in the Land Pavilion, the restaurant offers a distinctive dining adventure as it gradually rotates, providing diners with a panoramic view of the Living with the Land attraction. The ambiance is charming and welcoming, characterized by warm lighting and rustic decor. While savoring your meal and the scenic views, you can also enjoy visits from beloved characters such as Chip, Dale, Pluto, and Mickey (donned in his farmer's attire).

Let's delve into the culinary delights. The Garden Grill is renowned for its family-style, all-you-care-to-enjoy menu, featuring ingredients sourced from Living with the Land. With a rotating menu, the options are ever-changing, yet the dishes draw inspiration from traditional American cuisine and are served in generous portions.

During our recent visits, we started with the harvest-inspired salad—a medley of fresh greens, tomatoes, olives, pepperoncini, and croutons, topped with a vinaigrette dressing. Complementing this was cornbread served with delectable, sweet honey butter.

The main course presented a platter boasting sliced turkey breast, grilled steak with chimichurri, barbecue chicken, and sides of mashed potatoes, green beans, macaroni and cheese, corn medley, and seasonal vegetables. The turkey breast was succulent and flavorful, adorned with a delightful gravy. The grilled beef exhibited a perfect char on the outside and impeccable cooking. The barbecue chicken, moist and flavorful, was enhanced by a sweet yet savory barbecue sauce.

And let's not overlook dessert! A slice of berry cobbler and apple pie, both accompanied by vanilla ice cream, provided a perfect conclusion to our meal. The cobbler was brimming with fresh berries, and the ice cream was luxuriously creamy.

In summary, our experience at the Garden Grill Restaurant was nothing short of fantastic. The food delighted our taste buds, the service was exceptional, and the atmosphere radiated warmth and charm. I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking a memorable dining experience at EPCOT.
