Did we have to eat a three-course dinner and meet four characters to try this dessert? Yes, we did, but we’ll always take an excuse to see our best pal, Mickey!

Over at Garden Grill, the dessert changed to an all-new Strawberry Shortcake with whipped cream, which we had to try.

Strawberry Shortcake

We dug right into the cake and made sure to get strawberries and cake onto our spoons to try it all at once. The cake was denser than it looked, but it held up nicely on our spoons. While the strawberries were a bit too big to stay on our spoons, we liked the challenge of trying to get them all in one bite.

Grab a bite!

The flavors of this strawberry shortcake are precisely what you’d expect in the most classic way possible. It was a lightly sweetened yellow cake and had a strawberry sauce on top, too. The mountain of whipped cream on top was calling our name!

While the flavors were top notch, the texture wasn’t quite what we’d prefer. For strawberry shortcake, we prefer a lighter version that’s a bit fluffier, like the one at Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue.

Garden Grill is served family style, so even if you’re the only one at the table, you get served a huge skillet of cake. When ordering, you’ll choose which Harvest Feast platter you’d like, one of which is plant-based and the other is not. You’ll then get salad, bread, sides, a very full platter of your main course with different offerings, and dessert.

For kiddos, Farmer Mickey Cupcake is available, which is a chocolate cake with buttercream, and cookies and cream crumbs. It’s $62 per adult and $42 per child for those aged 3-9. Did we mention all the characters you get to meet?

Pluto!

Chip, Dale, Mickey Mouse, and usually Pluto will walk around to tables to take photos and sign autograph books while you enjoy your meal. It’s a great way to get more character interactions without having to worry about long waits — they come straight to you!

Mickey!

The entire Garden Grill restaurant rotates throughout your meal at a very slow pace, so you can take in different views around you. You might look into the Living with the Land ride, or see the beautiful mosaics on the wall. This is one of our top restaurants for the atmosphere alone!
