Chip \u2018N\u2019 Dale\u2019s Harvest Feast at the Garden Grill Restaurant<\/a> is located in Epcot<\/a>\u2019s Future World.\u00a0 The food is served family style, which makes it more relaxing than a buffet.\u00a0 As far as character meals go, I\u2019ve found the Garden Grill to be a favorite with character interaction and food.\u00a0 I chose the Garden Grill for my first solo character dining experience, and I loved it!<\/p>\n

\"Garden<\/p>\n

Atmosphere and Characters<\/h2>\n

The Garden Grill is on the top floor of The Land Pavilion and overlooks part of the Living with the Land<\/a> attraction.\u00a0 The restaurant slowly revolves and that changes scenery throughout the meal for diners.\u00a0 The seating on the lower level is booth seating, and the seating on the upper level is table and chairs.\u00a0 I\u2019ve sat on both levels, and prefer the booths because they are closer to the changing scenes.\u00a0 I had a table for this meal.\u00a0 I was still able to get a peek inside the farmhouse from Living with the Land as the restaurant revolved.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Farmer Mickey, Pluto, and Chip \u2018N\u2019 Dale are the regular characters here.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The characters do not have Cast Members accompanying them, so as a solo diner I asked my server to take one photo and I did selfies for my remaining photos.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I wasn\u2019t sure what to expect as a solo diner, and the character action was incredible!\u00a0 Each character coaxed me to take multiple selfies and visited my table several times.\u00a0 Chip sat down at my table and we shared dessert time together!\u00a0 You\u2019re never too old for fun with characters.\u00a0 Solo character dining was a blast!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n\n

The Food<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Diners are greeted with a Mickey setting on the table, a whimsical touch to the dinner!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Warm rolls were accompanied with a Harvest Inspired Garden Salad.\u00a0 As a solo diner, I quickly noticed that the food portions were huge and asked for smaller entr\u00e9e portions.\u00a0 I was told that this is the standard size of portions and to eat any amount without guilt because Disney is careful with food waste and recycles food into a power source.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The salad had mixed greens, vegetables, an egg, and bacon crumbles.\u00a0 The vinaigrette dressing was tasty, and all ingredients were garden fresh.\u00a0 The restaurant uses some of the produce that is grown in the Living With The Land attraction.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The entr\u00e9e platter consisted of turkey and gravy with stuffing, pot roast, mashed potatoes, sausage with pepper and onions, green beans and cranberry sauce.\u00a0 My favorites were the tender pot roast, mashed potatoes, and green beans.\u00a0 All of it was good and fresh.\u00a0 I was encouraged to ask for seconds of any item, but the platter was more than enough food.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Sweet potato fries and macaroni and cheese rounded off the meal.\u00a0 The fries were nicely done.\u00a0 The macaroni and cheese was the standard version found in many Walt Disney World restaurants, though there were Goldfish crackers sprinkled on top.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

For dessert, sponge cake covered with mixed berries and vanilla flavored whipped cream provided a sweet ending to the meal.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As always, the Garden Grill provided fun character interaction and fresh food.\u00a0 I\u2019d recommend this meal for all ages, whether you\u2019re a party of one or a party of many.\u00a0 You won\u2019t leave hungry, but you will leave with a smile on your face and good memories.<\/p>\n
