Dined here with 2 toddlers and 1 baby. The booths were comfy and the restaurant is spinning while you eat, very cool! Our server was really attentive and the food was delicious, especially in contrast to all of the fast food options in the parks.Our kids were very unsure of the characters, but Pluto, Mickey, and Chip&Dale came around multiple times throughout our meal. They eventually warmed up to them which was awesome.This is our second favorite dining option at Disney! The first is the Sci-Fi Dine-In at Hollywood Studios. **if you can keep your kids under control **

The food is amazing, the character interactions are fun, the service has been good each time we’ve come. The turning restaurant adds more fun to the experience getting to see part of the living on the land ride. We’ll definitely be back for more!

We ate there last October, and I haven’t stopped thinking about it since. The food was SO tasty, like a home cooked meal made with love. Seriously it’s so good. Characters spend a lot of time with you. Pluto letting me pet his snoot, like he knew I was missing my dogs back home. Seeing Living with the Land as you slowly turn. Just everything about this place is spot on. I’m mad at myself for not trying it sooner.Vegetarian options: There’s mac & cheese, carrots, green beans, corn bread, salad, mash potatoes.

This was the worst possible dinner we have ever had. In Epcot ctr.. I mean ever. The Disney characters were avoiding our table and when we asked for a pic each of them said just a minute. All 4 of them did that. I mean come on. We paid 200$ for this meal and it was awful. The food was bland it was all slopped together in a cast iron pan that you put biscuits in and it was the worst. I couldn't believe it. If you've made reservations cancel them now. Go to italy and have pizza. And there are characters all over the park. Trust me your not missing anything at the roundabout restaurant. And they were slow. When i complained about the food. There was no consideration or compensation, nor apology for the horrible food. His response. Well I'll pass it on.. I just couldn't believe it. Never again.

This is one of our favorite character dining experiences! Such a fun location, where the restaurant slowly rotates with views of the Land exhibit. Visits from Chip and Dale, Micky and Pluto. We went for lunch, the food was brought to the table and served family style. Everything was fresh and well made. We'd definitely do this one again.

Garden Grill is a character dining experience in the Land Pavilion in Epcot.The restaurant actually rotates and gives you a great view of parts of the Living with the Land ride.The menu is a served family style and is all you care to eat. The meal includes cornbread with butter, green beans, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, chimichurri steak, and turkey with gravy.All of the food was good, but the highlights for us were the turkey, mashed potatoes and cornbread.For dessert there is a seasonal pie, in our case it was apple pie topped with vanilla ice cream. This was also very good.We aren’t really character people, but if you are, you will have plenty of opportunities to see chip and dale and Mickey.The big draw for us was being able to see the Living with the Land ride.Service was very good also.Overall this is a great place to have a meal. The prices as of February 2024 were around $62 a person, so not cheap, but it’s still worth it for the good food and atmosphere.

Time : BreakfastFood: simple and delicious!They start you with MonkeyBread (Cinnamon Pull Apart Bread), a fruit (we had watermelon this time- not sure if that's an all the time option or not) and your choice of drink. Then before you know it they bring out this big ol skillet full of food! It has like 5 or something Mickey Waffles, scrambled eggs, bacon, flank steak, and hashbrown casserole! If it's not enough- you can request more.Service : I mean oof. Amazing. First we made a mistake with our party sizes and the front staff accommodated is without any issues. They were able to get all of our parties as close together as possible, which made for awesome pictures. Jeanie was our server and she was on top of everything making sure we were ok and had everything we needed. She was friendly and personable.Atmosphere: the room rotates at a snails pace, enough to enjoy the scenery of the attraction below the restaurant but not enough to notice any substantial motion. AND OF COURSE - the characters. We had Mickey in his cute little farmer fit, Pluto, Chip and Dale, all of whom were fun to interact with!Kid-friendliness: Character meet and greets during the meal

Food was delicious. You are able to ask for more of anything you liked. We were party of two so we had a booth with another family. All the characters come to your table and interact with you and you can take pictures with them. The restaurant is constantly moving so you get a new scenery throughout your dinner. The one thing I was disappointed with was that they did not give us the postcard with all the characters autographs. With the price tag it would have been appropriated.

Made a reservation for 9.50am. When we got there we were told we had to wait while they cleared a table which was fine. After 40 MINUTES we still didn't have a table and the staff couldn't give me a reason for why. We then had to leave as our group was called up for the Guardians so we didnt even get inside the restaurant or eat any of the food.Don’t understand the point of making a reservation if you don’t get a table for when you booked for. Waste of our time.

This is a family style restaurant inside the land pavilion in Epcot and has character dining. The theme of the food is definitely centered around fresh produce and fairly simple dishes. That said, the food we had was good. Since it's all you can eat, you can also ask for more of any specific items that you want. Aside from the food, I think the character experience was the real highlight of this restaurant. Most character dining experiences feel very limited and rushed. Dining here was very different, we had each of the characters stop by our table several times throughout our meal and we weren't even there that long. It definitely made it feel more worth the money it costs for character dining. If you're interested in a meal with a lot of character interaction I would definitely suggest looking here.

It was nice but I had a 10:10 reservation and I didn’t get to eat till 10:30. It was cool because they had some characters there and we got to take pictures. The floor spin’s and there is cool scenery. The food was nice but it was not worth 50 bucks per person.
