*NEW* Blackened Fish Slider – $6.79
with fried green tomato and Cajun rémoulade on a brioche bun

This is a mystery white fish and does taste fishy. But if you like that, this is the perfect slider. The fish is seasoned well with a bit of spice. The fried green tomato is perfectly cooked. The bun is soft and buttery and holds up. Everything is working which is a rarity.

*NEW* Tuna Poke Bowl – $8.79
with edamame, avocado, mango, pickled red onions, seaweed salad, furikake, and umami sauce on a bed of sticky rice

This is great and it’s a real meal-sized portion for a good price. The tuna is soft and fresh. The seaweed salad is on point. And the avocado is perfect.

*NEW* Poke Bowl – $6.29
with edamame, avocado, mango, pickled red onions, seaweed salad, furikake, and umami sauce on a bed of sticky rice (Plant-based) 

This is the same as the above poke bowl just without tuna. If you’d rather get something plant-based, this is just as great.

Rating out of 7: 6

*NEW* Coconut Panna Cotta – $5.79
with a cherry gelée and matcha crumb topped with a citrus cookie, plant-based meringue, and flower confetti (Plant-based)

This is a middle of the road dessert. It mostly tastes of berry with some citrus sour flavors. It’s not too tart. The crumbles give it a nice texture.

Rating out of 7: 4

*NEW* Frozen Island Escape – $4.99
Minute Maid Peach and Mango Smoothie featuring an Outshine Frozen Mini Fruit Pop (Non-alcoholic) 

This is a decent drink although it’s essentially liquid sugar. The popsicle makes it fun. You’ll like it if you like peach and mango and it will especially excite kids.

Sunshine Seasons

Food:

  • *NEW* Mickey-shaped Lemon-Violet Macaron – $6.29

Beverages:

  • Orange Cream Milk Shaketopped with whipped cream, an orange cookie, and a citrus macaron (Non-alcoholic) – $10.99

*NEW* Mickey-shaped Lemon-Violet Macaron – $6.29

This is pretty and has the perfect texture but it’s super tart. The violet and lemon flavors clash, making for a treat that can’t decide what it wants to be. It’s not bad but not everyone will enjoy it.

Rating out of 7: 5

The Citrus Blossom

Food:

  • Orange-Sesame Tempura Shrimp with orange-chile sauce – $7.79
  • Lumpia with plant-based pork, green papaya salad, and yuzu sweet-and-sour (Plant-based) – $6.19
  • *NEW* Cinnamon Beignets tossed in lemon sugar, lemon glaze, and honey mead-blueberry compote  $5.29

  • *NEW* BrewDog Brewing Company Five Limes Cerveza – $6/6 oz or $9.75/12 oz
  • Beverage Flight – $12.75
  • Key Lime Wine Slushy – $13

*NEW* Cinnamon Beignets – $5.29
tossed in lemon sugar, lemon glaze, and honey mead-blueberry compote 

Blueberry does not come through in the honey mead-blueberry compote. It doesn’t add anything to the beignets. The pastries are a bit too dense but still good. The lemon glaze makes them.

Beach Grub

People stand in line at an outdoor food kiosk named "The Donut Box" under a clear sky, enjoying the vibrant ambiance of the Flower & Garden Festival, with lush trees and charming buildings setting a picturesque background.

Food:

  • Grilled Street Corn on the Cob with savory garlic spread featuring Boursin Dairy-Free Garlic & Fine Herbs Cheese (Plant-based) – $5.99
  • *NEW* Orange Cream Bar with vanilla bean-orange mousse covered in a chocolate shell with marshmallow meringue – $5.49

Beverages:

  • *NEW* Strawberry-Basil Lemonade: Minute Maid Premium Lemonade with strawberry-hibiscus syrup garnished with basil (Non-alcoholic) – $4.79
  • *NEW* 3 Daughters Brewing Key Lime Hard Cider – $6 for 6 oz; $9.75 for 12 oz

*NEW* Orange Cream Bar – $5.49
with vanilla bean-orange mousse covered in a chocolate shell with marshmallow meringue 

This is way too sweet. The mousse is moist and fresh, the shell is citrus forward and we love the orange flavor, but it’s otherwise pure sugar.

Rating out of 7: 4

*NEW* Strawberry-Basil Lemonade – $4.79
Minute Maid Premium Lemonade with strawberry-hibiscus syrup garnished with basil (Non-alcoholic)

This has a surprisingly strong basil flavor. It’s thankfully not to sweet. It’s refreshing but basic.

Food:

  • Soft-serve in a Waffle Cone – $6.29
    • Vanilla
    • Blueberry

*NEW* DOLE Whip Peach Soft-Serve in a Waffle Cone (Plant-based) – $6.29

This is intense and tart. It’s not too sweet although has an artificial flavor. If you like peach, you’ll probably like it.

Trowel & Trellis

Food:

  • *NEW* Miso Cola-glazed Sticky Pork Ribs topped with spicy pickled peppers and peanuts – $7.29

  • Botanical Slush: Twinings Mango & Pineapple Herbal Tea, Minute Maid Passion Fruit Orange Guava Juice, Simply Fruit Punch, and simple syrup with Cruzan Mango Rum – $11.75

*NEW* Miso Cola-glazed Sticky Pork Ribs – $7.29
topped with spicy pickled peppers and peanuts

The meat comes right off the bone, which is a good sign. The ribs are a little dry but saved by everything else. The seasoning and sauce are so good. There’s a bit of a kick. The peanuts pair well.

Rating out of 7: 6

*NEW* Garden Vegetable Flatbread – $5.99
featuring Boursin Crumbles Garlic & Fine Herbs Cheese, topped with roasted vegetables and arugula salad

This is huge but unfortunately isn’t very good. The cheese is congealed and there’s too much, giving a drying effect to the dish. The arugula is also super dry and flavorless. And the flatbread isn’t fresh. It’s a good concept but bad execution.

BRUNCHCOT

A line of people waits outside the Brunchcot food kiosk, their anticipation matching the excitement of the Flower & Garden Festival. The sky is overcast, providing a serene backdrop to the blooming trees in the background.

Food:

  • Avocado Toast with marinated tomatoes featuring Boursin Dairy-Free Garlic & Fine Herbs Cheese on toasted ciabatta (Plant-based) – $6.49
  • *NEW* Shrimp and Grits: Blackened shrimp and cheddar cheese grits with tasso ham gravy, bell peppers, onions, and andouille sausage – $7.79

  • 3 Daughters Brewing Coffee Blonde Ale – $6 for 6 oz; $9.75 for 12 oz
  • Peach Bellini: Sparkling wine and peach purée – $11.75

*NEW* Shrimp and Grits – $7.79
Blackened shrimp and cheddar cheese grits with tasso ham gravy, bell peppers, onions, and andouille sausage

The grits are a solid block. The shrimp is cooked fine but not seasoned or interesting. This is just fine.

Rating out of 7: 3

*NEW* French Toast – $5.29
with cinnamon cereal cream and caramel sauce

This is a bit charred like they tried to give it a crème brûlée finish but it didn’t work. It tastes like a block of burnt cinnamon with a plain piece of bread in the middle. We hoped it would be something special but it was a disappointment.

Refreshment Station hosted by Coca-Cola

Beverages:

  • *NEW* Coca-Cola Cherry Float (Non-alcoholic) – $5.50
  • *NEW* Coca-Cola Cherry Float Zero Sugar (Non-alcoholic) – $5.50

*NEW* Coca-Cola Cherry Float (Non-alcoholic) – $5.50

Firstly, we were disappointed that these “new” items were just bottled Cokes. They both have a cherry-vanilla flavor and are a bit more powerful than a regular cherry float. But it’s nothing spectacular.

Rating out of 7: 2

*NEW* Coca-Cola Cherry Float Zero Sugar (Non-alcoholic)  – $5.50

The Zero Sugar was actually slightly better than the regular Coca-Cola Cherry Float. But only slightly.

Connections Eatery

The entrance to "Connections Eatery" is adorned with vibrant plants and a striking red vending machine, capturing the spirit of the Festival of the Arts under a clear blue sky.

Food:

  • Hot Honey Chicken Sandwich: Southern fried chicken sandwich with hot honey, red cabbage slaw, and pickles on a brioche bun – $13.19
  • *NEW* Pizza Bianca: Two slices of freshly baked pizza topped with roasted wild mushrooms, garlic cream, mozzarella, cheese blend, truffle oil, and thyme – $12.29

Beverages:

  • *NEW* Garden Glimmer: Empress 1908 Gin, DOLE Pineapple Juice, lemon juice, and almond-flavored syrup – $16.50

*NEW* Pizza Bianca – $12.29
Two slices of freshly baked pizza topped with roasted wild mushrooms, garlic cream, mozzarella, cheese blend, truffle oil, and thyme 

This is super greasy but otherwise not bad. The cheese is good. If you’re going to eat at Connections anyway, you might as well get this.

Rating out of 7: 4

*NEW* Garden Glimmer – $16.50
Empress 1908 Gin, DOLE Pineapple Juice, lemon juice, and almond-flavored syrup

The pineapple juice overpowers everything else in this drink. We wouldn’t spend money on it in the future.

The Honey Bee-stro

Food:

  • Chicken and Waffles: Crispy chicken and a sweet honey-bacon cornbread waffle with whipped honey butter and orange blossom honey – $6.99
  • *NEW* Honeycomb Bowl with herb quinoa, honey-whipped goat cheese, poached apples, and hot honey cauliflower, topped with a honey tuile – $5.49

  • Frozen Peach Cobbler with blueberry vodka and streusel – $13.25

*NEW* Honeycomb Bowl – $5.49
with herb quinoa, honey-whipped goat cheese, poached apples, and hot honey cauliflower, topped with a honey tuile 

This is spectacular. It’s a light healthy treat — so different from other festival food. There’s a slight burn from the hot honey cauliflower. It’s seasoned well. The honey tuile is cute and technically edible but really just a decoration.

Jardin de Fiestas

Food:

  • *NEW* Chilaquiles con Carne: Corn tortillas tossed in salsa ranchera and Monterey Jack with shaved rib-eye, poblano peppers, onions, queso fresco, and crema Mexicana – $8.50

Beverages:

  • Craft Mexican Draft Beer – $6.25 for 6 oz; $11.50 for 12 oz
  • *NEW* Flower Power Margarita: Dulce Vida Blanco Tequila, orange-pineapple juice, blackcurrant-lavender liqueur, and Empress 1908 Gin with a rose petal flower salt rim – $15
  • *NEW* Spicy Mango Margarita: 100% de agave blanco tequila, reposado mezcal, tamarindo liqueur, mango purée, and lime-jalapeño juice with a chili-lime salt rim – $14.75

*NEW* Chilaquiles con Carne – $8.50
Corn tortillas tossed in salsa ranchera and Monterey Jack with shaved rib-eye, poblano peppers, onions, queso fresco, and crema Mexicana

Mexico booths usually have small portions but this is a good size. It’s a little dry and basic. But anybody can enjoy this.

Rating out of 7: 4

*NEW* Taco de Calamar – $9.00
Flour tortilla filled with crispy calamari, fried garlic, pasilla aïoli, and chives 

The calamari looks like Burger King onion rings but aren’t bad. They have the right amount of crunchiness and just a little bit of fishiness. The tortilla tastes like it’s straight out of a bag cold. The sauce has a good amount of kick.

Rating out of 7: 4

*NEW* Flan de la Abuela – $6.50
Creamy hazelnut-chocolate flan with vanilla crème anglaise

This is nothing crazy but it’s really good. It tastes like a flan version of Nutella. So all the flavors of Nutella, just in a gelatin form.

Rating out of 7: 6

*NEW* Flower Power Margarita – $15
Dulce Vida Blanco Tequila, orange-pineapple juice, blackcurrant-lavender liqueur, and Empress 1908 Gin with a rose petal flower salt rim

This is not the most offensive margarita we’ve had at EPCOT. It’s mild and watery. You can taste the gin but not much else.

Rating out of 7: 2

*NEW* Spicy Mango Margarita – $14.75
100% de agave blanco tequila, reposado mezcal, tamarindo liqueur, mango purée, and lime-jalapeño juice with a chili-lime salt rim

This is also kind of watered down. It’s a bit smoky. The spice of the rim is good up against the tropical juices. But we get the taste of Chloraseptic at the back end.

Lan Yuan

People standing in line at an outdoor food stall named Lan Yuan, adorned with a blue-tiled roof and wooden facade. The vibrant setting is part of the Flower & Garden Festival, adding charm under the cloudy sky.

Food:

*NEW* Sha Cha Beef Bao Bun – $7.75
filled with pan-fried beef, red onion, and jalapeño in Chinese sha cha peanut sauce

The beef is nothing impressive but it’s passable. There are a lot of peppers and that’s the main flavor, you can barely taste the peanut sauce. It’s oily and spicy.

Rating out of 7: 4

*NEW* Tanghulu – $7.25
Skewer of strawberries and grapes coated in candied sugar syrup

This is good but far too expensive for what it is. The coating is hard and crunchy. It’s exactly as described.

Rating out of 7: 3

*NEW* First Emperor – $15
Vodka, ginger kombucha, strawberry syrup, and lime juice

You taste the ginger kombucha right away. There’s a bit of sourness from the lime and a strawberry aftertaste. If you like kombucha, you’ll like this. It’s refreshing.

Norway Beer Cart

Food:

  • *NEW* Lemon Bolle: Cardamom bun filled with lemon curd and meringue – $5.49

*NEW* Lemon Bolle$5.49
Cardamom bun filled with lemon curd and meringue

This is a good size for the price. The bun is not as dry as it looks. It’s soft and a little dense. It does taste like it’s straight out of a bag. But the lemon curd is good and if you like that flavor, you’ll like this.

Refreshment Outpost

Food:

  • *NEW* Nigerian Beef Pie with papaya syrup – $6.79
  • Seasonal Fruit Parfait with sweet chili sauce and DOLE Whip Mango (Plant-based) – $6.99

  • *NEW* Ȯlōgy Brewing Co. Passion Fruit Dragon Slushhhhh – $12.50
  • Boyd & Blair Lavender Martini – $12.50

*NEW* Nigerian Beef Pie – $6.79
with Papaya Syrup

This is something you can buy at a corner store in New York. It’s like a Jamaican beef patty but with more African flavors. It’s oily and spicy. We can see potato inside but don’t taste it. We would rather get an empanada.

Sommerfest

Food:

  • *NEW* Zwiebelkuchen mit Spargel: German onion cake with asparagus, caramelized onions, bacon, herbed goat cheese, and a savory custard 

Beverages:

  • *NEW* Blossom Spritz: St. Germain Elderflower Liqueur, Sekt Sparkling Wine, and soda water topped with fresh mint and lime

*NEW* Zwiebelkuchen mit Spargel $9.79
German onion cake with asparagus, caramelized onions, bacon, herbed goat cheese, and a savory custard 

This is not what you want to eat in the Florida hat — and it’s just bad, too. You get the cheese up front but then everything is overwhelmed by onion. It falls flat.

Rating out of 7: 2

*NEW* Blossom Spritz – $13.50
St. Germain Elderflower Liqueur, Sekt Sparkling Wine, and soda water topped with fresh mint and lime 

This is refreshing and light. Nothing is overpowering. It’s not too sweet or too floral. If you like a floral wine, we think you’ll like this.

Primavera Kitchen

People lining up at a food booth labeled "Primavera Kitchen," set against the ornate facade, as vibrant blossoms signal the start of the Flower & Garden Festival.

Food:

  • *NEW* Insalata di Pasta: Penne, apple, raisins, scallions, almonds, honey, and lemon dressing (Served chilled) – $7.50
  • *NEW* Arancini: Risotto, beef ragoût, peas, parmesan, and tomato sauce – $7.75

*NEW* Insalata di Pasta – $7.50
Penne, apple, raisins, scallions, almonds, honey, and lemon dressing (Served chilled)

The infamous Italy booth strikes again. Here, we were actually relieved to see small portions compared to the other booths.

This is a poor pasta salad. All we can taste are the slivered almonds, which aren’t bad but also aren’t supposed to be the dominant flavor. It’s edible, which is something. There’s no reason to spend your money on this.

Rating out of 7: 1

*NEW* Arancini – $7.75
Risotto, beef ragoût, peas, parmesan, and tomato sauce

The tomato sauce is disgustingly sweet. The rice is overcooked. It at least has some flavor but it’s a terrible value.

Rating out of 7: 2

*NEW* Raspberry Swirl Cheesecake – $5.50
with ricotta cheese, raspberries, and sweet whipped cream 

This isn’t amazing and we wouldn’t recommend it but it’s not bad. Because it’s made with ricotta, it has a creamier, more viscous texture than your standard cheesecake. The pastry shell at the bottom is good.

Rating out of 7: 3

*NEW* Elderflower Sparkling Cocktail – $16
Mint-infused elderflower liqueur, prosecco, and blood orange soda

This is tart, bitter, and bubbly. We like the mint flavor. Some people will like this, some won’t.

*NEW* Blackened Shrimp Po’ Boy – $7.49
with lettuce, tomato, and Cajun rémoulade

This is fantastic. The shrimp and Cajun rémoulade have great flavors. The lettuce and tomatoes are crispy. It’s difficult to eat but worth the struggle.

*NEW* Frozen Wildberry Limeade – $6.29
Minute Maid Limeade, Minute Maid Strawberry Smoothie, and wildberry syrup with popping candy (Non-alcoholic) (Spirited version available with Tito’s Handmade Vodka)

You definitely get the pops from the popping candy. We like this a lot. It’s sweet.

*NEW* Bananas Foster Funnel Cake – $12.50
Funnel cake with banana-chocolate chip ice cream and powdered sugar, topped with whipped cream, rum-caramel sauce, and a banana-cinnamon sugar dusting

Heavenly. The chocolate chips aren’t obvious but that’s fine because they don’t necessarily belong. If you like bananas foster or just banana flavor, you’ll love this.

*NEW* Japanese Curry Bread – $6.75
Golden, crispy fried bread filled with a fragrant Japanese vegetable curry

The curry is excellent. It’s spiced well. The bread is crispy. It’s a little small for the price but it’s an actual Japanese food item.

Rating out of 7: 7

*NEW* Lavender Lemonade  – $8
Sake with lavender and Minute Maid Premium Lemonade

This smells like an air freshener. Taste-wise, it’s a little medicinal. You get the lavender and the lemonade but the sake pulls the flavors down.

Rating out of 7: 2

*NEW* Peach Momo Plum Wine – $9.75

This burns. You can taste the alcohol. It’s not too sweet and it’s delightfully peachy. It’s a little small for the price.

Rating out of 7: 5

*NEW* Sakura Beauty Sake – $11.75

We don’t taste any sakura. It’s light, watered-down sake. There’s plenty of sake options at the Japan pavilion so don’t bother with this.

*NEW* Ceviche – $7.49
Shrimp with mango, avocado, cucumber, lime, cilantro, tomato, and jalapeño served with plantain chips

This comes in a coconut bowl which we love. It’s a nice flavorful mixture but maybe has a bit too much cilantro. The shrimp is cooked well. The plantain chips are nice and salty. This is fresh, light, and delicious.

Pulled duck confit with rosemary-mushroom sauce and herbed polenta corn cake

The polenta is a little dry but the mushroom sauce helps with that. The duck is tender and not greasy. The sauce is pleasant. All the flavors are good.

*NEW* Tarte Aux Oignons Caramelises – $8.25
Caramelized onions on a flaky pastry crust, topped with bacon

This is much better than it looks. We like the flaky and crunchy texture. It tastes like French onion soup on a tart. It’s buttery with a good saltiness from the bacon.

  • *NEW* Blueberry-Ginger Smash: Canadian Club Whisky, blueberry, lemon, and ginger – $14.50

*NEW* Blueberry-Ginger Smash – $14.50
Canadian Club Whisky, blueberry, lemon, and ginger 

The ginger gives this a bit of carbonation. Canadian Club is a tremendous mixer. The whisky is evened out nicely although you’ll definitely feel it. It’s a nice smooth drink.

Yorkshire County Fish and Chips

*NEW* English Garden – $17.50
Fords Gin, St-Germain Elderflower Liqueur, Minute Maid Premium Lemonade, Minute Maid Apple Juice, and lemon juice, topped with a cucumber

This isn’t worth the high price. It’s too tart. The juicy flavors cancel out the flavor. There are plenty of other alcoholic options at the U.K. pavilion.

(Spirited version available with Kahlúa Coffee Liqueur)

We got the version with Kahlúa Coffee Liqueur for $15.99. It’s hard for anything to be unenjoyable with Kahlúa. We definitely taste the pistachio and a bit of mocha. They make for a great combination. We’re sure it’s good without the liqueur, too. It’s one of the better frozen Joffrey’s drinks.

*NEW* Very Berry Matcha Latte – $7.19
Milk, strawberry syrup, and matcha topped with whipped cream (Non-alcoholic)
(Spirited version available with Baileys Original Irish Cream Liqueur)

We got this with Bailey’s, which is interesting with the matcha. There are a lot of different flavors that you wouldn’t expect to work together but they do. The strawberry syrup is buried at the bottom and we wish there was more. It tastes like a matcha dessert.

*NEW* Cascara Lemonade – $6.49
Frozen Lemonade with Cascara Syrup (non-alcoholic)

The lemonade is so sweet, we barely taste anything else. It was a little bit like the kombucha from Lan Yuan. It’s a hard pass.

*NEW* Garden Bloom Latte – $7.19
Espresso, milk, and lavender and vanilla syrups topped with whipped cream (non-alcoholic)
(Spirited version available with Kahlúa Coffee Liqueur)

We also got this latte with Kahlúa. We don’t like it as much as the Dubai Chocolate Frozen Cappuccino but it’s still enjoyable. It mostly tastes like espresso with light floral notes. The vanilla and lavender make for a good flavor.
