We just got back this evening from a wonderful stay. I just wanted to write a quick review of the Garden Grill. It was really hard to get a reservation here, but I managed to snag one 2 days before we went there.

In all honesty, I just booked this reservation for chip and dale. Looking at their menu on all ears I was not expecting much. Our family is on the picky side and usually like different things so I was not sure how family style was going to go....but my daughter was turning 3 and LOVES chip and dale so we went.

It was amazing. Hands down it was the best meal of the trip. The salad and rolls were wonderful. The rolls were soft and warm and the maple butter was yummy. The salad had all kinds of wonderful things in it such as bacon, hard cooked eggs and a yummy ranch type dressing. A very hearty salad. Next came the main course. We had a turkey breast on mashed potatoes - the turkey was moist and delicious and the mashed potatoes divine. Next to that was the beef. It had a lovely sauce on it and was on some veggies (I'll admit I didn't pay too much attention to those :)) The beef was perfectly cooked and tasted wonderful. Next to that was the fish on top of a rice dish (again I didn't pay too much attention to that - sorry :) I am not a fish eater, but my mom and DH LOVED it. and for my picky DH to like it, it had to be good.

The kids liked their baked mac-n-cheese, but not so much the brocolli :lmao: though I liked it. They also did not like the sweet potato fries - I wish I had ordered them the "other options" on the menu, but it's not that the food for them was bad - it was just them :lol

Next was dessert - the kids had cute little "mickey mousse" sundaes and the adults had peach raspberry cobbler. We tasted it (were wayyyyy to full to appreciate it) and it was wonderful.

The character interaction was great - farmer Mickey is so cute! Chip and Dale were fun, I do wish that they came around together, but it was fine.

We also were lucky to have an awesome server - Cory. He earned a big tip that night - very personable and attentive. Great guy.

All in all - Garden Grill exceeded my expectations and we will definately make it a priority on our next trip.
 
We had lunch there 3 years ago. Sorry they don't do lunch any more. We also loved the food. And the character interaction was above and beyond the normal.
 
How much do they charge per person for adults, and are the soft drinks included? I have the QSDP, but really want to take my daughter and her two best friends here for her 16th birthday at the end of Oct. I just can't seem to find a current price for it. Thanks for any and all help..
 

Okay this excites me! We tried to get in here the last few trips but couldn't and I did manage to get in for our upcoming trip in Nov...I thought the same thing....menu doesn't impress me but we want to try some new places and some old favorites...Now I am looking forward to it! :upsidedow

Thanks!
 
We just ate there last night and I agree...it was fabulous....Chip & Dale are my Mom's favourite characters so a reservationat the Garden Grill is a must on each trip. They did make some changes to the menu (for the better) and we had the best server Kurt. The price was $34.99 per adult and it did include our soft drinks.

Thank you for the information on the price. :woohoo: Looks like we will be having dinner there for my daughter's sweet sixteen.

We too love the Garden Grill. We had dinner there our last nite a few weeks ago. LOVED IT!!! I couldn't get enough of the macaroni & cheese. Loved the character interaction. Our poor server was so busy and rushing so much that she accidentally spilled a glass of water on our daughter .. no big deal ... didn't dampen our meal any.
 
thank you for this review, i get to make my ADR's on Tuesday and have been thinking about making this one our first meal when we arrive.
 
We love the the Garden Grill! Hoping we are able to get a reservation there for our upcoming trip. We get to make reservations on Tuesday!
 
When DW and I were at Garden Grill 2 years ago, we thought that it was just okay. Is the menu different now? Catfish was served then. What fish is served now? How tasty is the food? Which characters were there?
