We have only had breakfast at GG, and always love it, but I agree with you totally. If we all pay the same price, we should all get the same experience. No excuses! Also, for 60+ dollars, food should be correctly prepared, hot and tasty. Good honest review.

Character dining is such an experience we pay a lot and it’s so varied. I did Cinderella’s royal table and it felt super rushed too… whereas the Tusker House and Akershus were much nicer experiences… This should be a reviewed process for them cause Character Dining needs to be worth the while

It's wonderful that your viewers can rely on you to share honest reviews. So many Disney content creators suck up to Disney instead of acting with integrity.

I've always liked the Garden Grill breakfast way better than the dinner. I'm sad the stuffing is gone, that was my favourite. I'll have to talk to the hubs and see if we can switch our dinner for breakfast on our summer trip.

We had lunch there in Dec and really enjoyed it. Did you end up having to ask for the dessert? Seems like they were either having an off day or like you said, 7:55 is not the reservation to make. Sorry it wasn’t a better experience.

Sup Demi! Garden Grill: Disney rotation dining…on The Land. Sorry🤣 I’ve never dined here, but after seeing this, I think I would have to pass. Even though the characters here are incredibly cute, the food quality and the fact that the characters leave before the restaurants closes is a big turn off. In my opinion, there are much better options for character dining. Those desserts looked good though.

We've had the last reservation at Topolino's and they made sure that every character came by at least once so that is a good option for a late breakfast reservation and still getting the character time.

I’ve been watching your footage on all the parks and it’s super helpful I think I’ll definitely avoid the Garden Grill 🤔. If you have any advice or tips and tricks to make our trip easier or more economical it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again 😊 0:15

Sad that it's a skip because Chip & Dale are my favorites. But have had similar disappointment with the food and service. Same where they brought the entree two minutes after the salad. Our server brought the salad before we could ask for dressing on the side- only way my kid will eat salad. She actually said no, it comes from the kitchen that way. I responded that salad doesn't arrive in the kitchen with dressing- the cooks mix it in, and asked again if we could have one with dressing on the side. She said no, brought our meal two minutes later, and then we didn't see her again until we'd been done eating for over 30 minutes- had to ask someone to get her, so we could ask for dessert. Then another 30 minutes before we saw her again, to ask for the check. So our meal took way too long, used up so much park time, because she was MIA. Sad because I want to like it, for the characters. But for the price, and to not love the food, and have bad service, I really can't again.

Just came back from WDW and was looking forward to our dinner there. Soooo disappointed !! We didnt get the veggies and dip, our mac and cheese came in a bowl so it was cold. The skillet was not as full so we had to order more food. The apple pie was half the size of youra and cold. In Canadian dollars it was a 200 dollar meal . Please avoid at all costs, Our server was great as the characters were but NOT worth it!! Get a sandwich and dessert in France world showcase!!! No excuse Disney😡

I have never been and never will be a fan of all you can enjoy skillet meals. My family is picky, but in different ways - including me - I hate skillet meals, not enough variety. A la carte is my preference but at least a buffet ensures everyone has something they want to eat.
