We’ve done quite a few character meals over the years, but never lunch at Garden Grill or Tusker House. We are going to have lunch at one of these two on our next visit.

Which one do you like better? I am leaning towards Garden Grill because we will have a 5, 3 and 1 year old with us - family style is so much easier logistically than a buffet. I have also heard great reviews of Tusker House’s food/character interactions, though, so I’m considering it even though it’s a buffet.

Thoughts?
 
You can get good character interaction at both for sure......but I suggest Garden Grill. We LOVED the characters there and (as you pointed out) family style brought to the table makes for an easier meal with the little ones (as long as the menu is reasonably appealing to you).

1, 3 & 5 y.o......Garden Grill.

Your concern about buffet with small children is mine too.
 

We have done both and liked both, but the family style service at GG is more convenient, for sure. I think you’d enjoy either one, though.
 
Another vote for GG, though we've done both. I had a hard time leaving GG to start trying other ADR's at EP, it used to be an every trip tradition.
 
Garden Grill is super fun! Lots of good family-style food and character interaction. Plus, your kids may get a kick out of being able to watch Living with The Land go by while they eat.
