I highly recommend the salmon and beef tips from Northern Bloom in Canada. Both dishes were incredible with great flavors and the portions were worth the price. Pro tip - take your food up into the Canada pavilion and sit by the waterfall in the back!

Pros:

Excellent quality food & good portions.

Cons:

The price of alcoholic drinks are too high for the amount you get.

I really enjoyed the 2019 festival and it's offerings. Particularly good were the scallops in Canada, the goat cheese tart in France, the pizza in Italy,the red green tomatoes and blue crab at the Arbor and especially the lobster tail at The Citrus Blossom. Best drinks were the Italian Lemoncello Margarita, the French Kir Framboise, the Moroccan Desert Rose and the UK English Rose.

Pros:

Nice food and drink selection this year. Last year's festival winners were the desserts.

Cons:

Too many good things to choose from!

May 2019 was my first Flower & Garden Festival with the Outdoor Kitchens. I LOVE food and trying all kinds of things (especially on vacation) but I was underwhelmed by the food quality. It seems like the focus is on quantity, which rarely leads to great results and I wish the booths didn’t detract from the wonderful World Showcase. I’ve had many great visits to EPCOT in the past and loved the experience of perusing the countries’ books and crannies, but the Outdoor Kitchens take away from the transportive feeling of visiting the countries. I think it’d be great if there were fewer Outdoor Kitchens and options and they focused more on quality than massive quantity and variety. I know I’m in the minority, but I’d rather visit during a non-festival time.

Pros:

Creates draw to EPCOT—can’t hate that!

Cons:

Quantity and variety trump quality and it takes away from the charm of the World Showcase.

We had to try the non-alchohol slushes when we were last there for this event. The Violet lemonade one was the must have from my oldest and promptly was posted on her Instagram. I wasn't in love with it though so I got a Cucumber Melon one at another stand and even she agreed that she liked it much better (that went on her Instagram as well.) There were many others to try and all kinds of food offerings. My kids are under 21 so we did not try any of the alcoholic offerings. Everything is small portions and it does add up to try a bit of this and that.

Pros:

Such yummy fresh flavors!

Cons:

Can't afford to try it all. Some will want a much larger portion for the price.

I am a fan of the Food and Wine Festival so when the Flower and Garden Festival began offering food booths, I was thrilled. This year's Festival winners, in my book were: the onion tart and Kir Pomegranate in France, sparkling Key Lime wine,
Bush Berry shrimp from Australia, warm fruit buckle with pepperberry gelato and the Limoncello margarita in Italy. I was disappointed with the spicy chicken lettuce leaves in China. The chicken was rather dry. I think the pineapple whip with rum was the most overpriced item. For $10.25, it was a $4.75 cup of pineapple whip with a shot of rum. I think an $8 would have been fair. Granted, it was tasty!!
I was happy to see three concerts with Peter Noone and Herman's Hermits on three different days and he varied each show which was nice. I thought many of the flower and topiary exhibits were dull (color-wise) this year but the topiaries in front of Spaceship Earth were delightful. All in all, it was a fun festival.

Pros:

Fun offerings

Cons:

Some overpriced

We had a wonderful time dining around the world showcase. It is so fun to try new foods and explore the world showcase pavilions. We enjoyed most of the foods we sampled, but felt that they were overpriced for the serving size.

Pros:

Eating around the world

Cons:

prices

My wife & I experienced the F&W fest on our first trip to Disney back in '99. We've been lucky enough to get back a few times since and it seems this event just gets better & better. The food and wine, the music, the presentations. Something for everyone.
Now we're back with our 14 yr old twins and the family loves the idea of purchasing smaller plates that we can all share. If we find something one of us really enjoys, we grab another little taste.
We were in Epcot on 4/3/15 and we came with some friends who now live in the area with their two daughters. We had carne asada tacos from the Mexico booth. We always go to the China booth to get those candied strawberries. We loved the chicken buns and spring rolls they had this year. I think we went back to get 2 extra orders of those buns. Delish! Manicotti from the Italy booth, burnt ends hash from one of the bbq booths. Everything was excellent.
Food, wine, music, family & Disney. Does life get any better? I only wish we could go every year.

Pros:

Variety of foods; tapas sized servings

Cons:

none
