Garden Grill for Picky Eaters

[Robmom]

I reserved Garden Grill next month for dinner. Now, I can eat anywhere, but the rest of my group, not so much. My DD and DH are vegetarians, do they offer fish options or any other non-meat foods? Also, my DS is a chicken finger and fries type of kid. I didn't see an option for that on their menu.

it looks like the food is brought to you for lunch and dinner they have mac and cheese and salad out of what they list only three things have meat. On the forums there is a wdw you click on that ten you can find the menu for any wdw restaurant.

all ears has the menu. It looks like it may not be the best choice for your family.

I've read in other threads that they will make vegetarians a separate vegetarian meal but I'm not sure what that currently is. When are you going next month? I will be there on August 23 (and am vegetarian) so can try to report back if no one else chimes in before then.

I would do GG for Lunch or Dinner but I hate Pot Roast & I only eat Turkey for Thanksgiving so it's breakfast or nothing for me. They used to serve fish as part of the skillet but I think they stopped according to the menus I've seen.

I'd skip this with two vegetarians and a kid that only eats chicken fingers and fries.

We have eaten here two years in a row. The main platter of food is served in one giant tray - so the sausage, beef and chicken are served on the same tray as the mashed potatoes and veggies. The fries and mac and cheese are served in separate bowls. So even though there are non-meat options, almost everything is served together. I guess you could request separate trays for meat and non-meat items, but the tables are pretty small and having two big platters of food isn't going to make for a comfortable dining experience.

If you really want a character dining experience. I'd say you're better off with a buffet, given the needs and restrictions of your party.

I would skip it. My kids...not picky...did not enjoy the kids offerings. Chicken legs and sweet potato fries. And, not a whole lot for veg at all.

With vegetarians in tow, I think the best character meal option is Tusker House.

I just found on another site that the vegetarians in their group were recently offered a veggie loaf with tomato sauce, mashed potatoes, rice, fries, Mac and cheese, corn, salad, bread, and a berry shortcake dessert.

I'll be there the same time! I cancelled the reservation, because I don't want to have everyone complaining that there is nothing for them to eat. Thanks!

Thanks everyone for your help! I cancelled the reservation.
