Biergarten Restaurant - Epcot


At Epcot in the Walt Disney World complex you can enjoy all kinds of authentic food from around the world.  I think all agree the Germans are tremendous cooks and are world renowned for their dishes and desserts.  The Biergarten Restaurant has it all.  Lunch is $21.99 and dinner is $32.99 for all you can eat buffet.

We ate there recently and weren't disappointed.  Like all the Epcot restaurants, Biergarten employs people straight from Germany so you get all the Disney treatment flavored by old European manners and charm.

The menu won't disappoint you.They have every kind of salad for starters and for entrees you can choose from pork, beef, bratwurst and other sausages along with salmon, and some other things I can't remember.


Dessert includes apple strudel, vanilla pudding, fruit, and Bavarian cheesecake.  Needless to say, they serve a wide variety of German beer and you can enjoy a show while you dine.  Seating is at long tables with benches.  Good with kids so you don't have to get up every few minutes.

The atmosphere is typically festive like in Germany and the place is comfortable.  It's clean and the wait staff is very polite and accommodating.  They encourage folks to participate in the singing and dancing and while we were there a lot of folks did just that.

I give it an "A" overall.  It has everything you want in a German restaurant but I thought the desserts could have had more variety.  I also don't care to be seated at a table with other families although many people don't mind that.  It was a totally enjoyable experience and the German folks should be proud of how their country is represented. I hope you visit and like it as much as we did.
