Which Restaurant?

Were trying to decide between Garden Grill and Liberty Tree Tavern. We've never been to either. The kids would love to do both, but I think we'll try to not totally overdo character meals. :)
Which one would you suggest and why? TIA!

Re: Which Restaurant?

We always do Garden Grill, but I have a DS who is a Chip & Dale fanatic, so he loves seeing them there. We enjoyed the food at Garden Grill, and we like the atmosphere with the rotating restaurant overlooking Living With the Land. I know a lot of people love LTT, but we prefer Garden Grill!

I'm glad I'm not the only one having a tough time deciding! I'd love to do both, but there are so many others that we want to go to that we probably should choose between the two.

This will be our third time at GG so if I had to pick just one I guess it would be that

Re: Which Restaurant?

I have never been to Liberty Tree and I can say that Garden Grill is over-rated. By far the best part is the characters, the food was not all that good. If you have never been to the Crystal Palace, I would vote for that.

ho ho ho which one to goto i have never done Garden Grill but it looks good.

we went to Liberty Tree Tavern with the kids last year and they did not like the food, the restaurant or the service.

i think its down to personal choice when it comes to food.

the kids loved crystal palace and Cinderella's royal table especially after been to Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique if you have a princess.



merry Christmas to all

Re: Which Restaurant?

I like GG because it is different. I love how it spins around. But I like the food better at LTT. lol Sorry I don't think I helped any.

Re: Which Restaurant?

Slightly OT - but does the GG still rotate? We've never done it, but are scheduled for the March 08.

We like LTT for the special events: Christmas Party, etc - but otherwise we don't usually do TS at MK (which I never really noticed until now. ).

Re: Which Restaurant?

I've never been to the Garden Grill but my family loves Liberty Tree for dinner. The characters (usually Minnie, Goofy, Pluto, Chip and Dale) usually come around a couple of times to each table. We've always had alot of fun here.

Re: Which Restaurant?

Those are my two favorite character meals. Both have good food, fun characters, and great atmosphere. The spinning of the Garden Grill might draw more interest or whatever from your kids. It's a little more... intriguing? I dunno. If you're a Chip and Dale fan, do GG... Minnie Mouse then LTT.

We've done CP twice with them now. I didn't enjoy the food as much last time as I normally do. I think if we go there again we will try breakfast. I haven't done that in years.
We Did Cindy's Table our last trip just for the girls and DD and I had a wonderful time! We went to BBB right after and it was a very awesome girls day out for us! :) I expect we will probably do it again too!

Oh, man.... I am going to get talked into both. My kids love Chip and Dale, we watch rescue rangers atleast once a week. But DD would love to see Minnie at LTT... hmm.

Re: Which Restaurant?

LTT is in such a perfect location... the thought of walking out of that building and being right there in the middle of everything is so tempting!
