Garden Grill
I've never ate there, but everytime I'm in the Land I tend to stare at it. It looks gross but I seem to hear a lot about it. What's it like? I know it rotates and that the chipmunks and mickey are there. But how's the food? atmosphere?
It's one of the only sit down resturaunts I haven't tried.

Re: Garden Grill
The art, as much as I like retro Epcot. The yellows and greens throw me off.

Re: Garden Grill
Check out the menu and see if the food is to your liking. What one person sees as good can be awful to another.
I view the earth tones as fitting the theme of the restaurant. I wouldn't think the gross colors will ruin the meal for you if you like the style of food.

Re: Garden Grill
It is my favorite place. One of the only places to get fried catfish.

Re: Garden Grill
I did not really care for it. Other than the rotating floor, there's nothing interesting about the place--and if you aren't seated at the rail, the rotating floor doesn't count for much.

Re: Garden Grill
I've never been a big fan the land, until soaring. I think it's more brady bunch colors then warm earth tones. That bugs me.

 Say WHA'??? I never in a million years considered Garden Grill "retro EPCOT!" Sorry, I just thought that was funny to see someone young talk about vintage EPCOT. I agree with you Amanda, it's not as visually appealing as it could be. It rotates and that's cool but I never really thought it was very attractive, all that wood paneling is start to look a little old.

Re: Garden Grill
Well I mean, compared to soaring the land is lacking in modern decor. Or atleast as far as i'm concerned. Even though Garden Grill was updated it still looks uncomfortable to me. I read the menu, doesn't look like anything I'd like :/
Oh well. I still love the land :D
