Garden Grove at the Walt Disney World Swan was a pleasant surprise and a great way to start our day. The atmosphere is what really sets it apart — the large dome ceiling and central tree make the dining room feel whimsical and bright, almost like eating in an indoor garden. Even without the character dining that sometimes happens here, it still feels fun and unique, especially for families. The food was good and well-prepared. My daughter absolutely loved her Mickey waffles, which were perfectly golden and came with all the classic toppings. My husband ordered the eggs Benedict and was really impressed — the eggs were poached just right, and the hollandaise was creamy without being heavy. I tried the avocado toast and pancakes, both of which were pretty good. The avocado toast was fresh a

Great experience at the Garden Grove restaurant this morning. Our server Karen was beyond friendly and caring. Although I did not specify that I had a gluten allergy, she was able to sense that by the way I ordered I either had a gluten sensitivity or an allergy and decided to take it upon herself to have my potatoes made without flour. Well, I did not ask for this the fact that she was able to sense that something was different about my order and to bring me out separate potatoes that would not made with gluten was amazing. This server was beyond friendly, caring, and dedicated quite frankly she was one of the nicest people we encountered during our stay at Disney hats off to Karen and the great food at the Garden Grove restaurant.

My wife and I visited this restaurant on the last day of our trip to the Walt Disney World Dolphin and Swan. We had originally planned on attempting to go on a weekend since the breakfast buffet features characters but we ended up going on a Monday morning around 10:30am. The restaurant was not busy at all. In fact, I would say there were no more than ten tables of Guests at that time of day. The atmosphere inside has all the tables circling a large tree with flickering lanterns in the middle of the room while the buffet was in a small area on the outer wall. As for the selections available I must say that it was lacking compared to what other buffets have offered in hotels such as Hampton Inn and the like. We were surprised when our server told us that if we wanted toast we had to as

Garden Grove is a restaurant located in the Dolphin hotel. The dining area is circular in shape and is centered around a large tree. During this visit my wife and I each ordered the biscuits and gravy. It also comes with home fries and eggs any style. I chose scrambled eggs and it was a very healthy portion. The home fries were also seasoned well and had a nice crispiness to them. The biscuits and gravy were also good. Overall I would recommend visiting Garden Grove for breakfast.

My husband and I got breakfast here and were really impressed. The omelet and pancakes are so good. Our server was attentive and fast. Walking by the pastry kitchen added a little sweetness.
