Magnolia Terrace Menu & Review (2023 Epcot Flower & Garden Festival)

If you find yourself in the America pavilion, aka The American Adventure, you’ll see the Magnolia Terrace booth.

This outdoor kitchen focuses on serving dishes inspired by the bayou and classic comfort food of the American Gulf Coast.

There are several new food options here, along with the return of the Spicy Chicken Gumbo with Andouille sausage and BEN’S ORIGINAL Long Grain & Wild Rice.

Most of the cocktails were available during last year’s festival, as well, including the Bayou Cocktail with Bayou Spiced Rum, Coconut Rum, Fruit Punch and Orange Juice.

Photos & Reviews

Muffuletta Panini

A muffuletta panini with ham, salami, mortadella, provolone, and Swiss with olive salad. This is a new festival item for 2023.

Muffuletta Magnolia Terrace
  • Price: $6.00
  • Special Diets: N/A
  • Rating: 4.7/5

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Nice portion, good flavors. Slightly salty.
Heather: So very good. Love the olives. Great flavor – nice portion size
Felicia: Huge portion, so much delicious melty cheese, salty olive salad complements that complements the sandwich well. The bread on the muffuletta is crispy and great.

Spicy Chicken Gumbo

Spicy chicken gumbo with andouille sausage and BEN’S ORIGINAL™ Long Grain & Wild Rice.

Gumbo Magnolia Terrace
  • Price: $6.25
  • Special Diets: N/A
  • Rating: 2.7/5

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Generous portion but tastes like spicy, salty brown gravy. No thanks.
Heather: TOO SPICY for my delicate, soft, sensitive mouth but I think if I push through the pain there is good flavor.
Felicia: This is spicy and salty and has a decent flavor. The chicken texture is kind of gross. Just okay.

Crawfish Pie

A crawfish pie topped with a flaky crust. This is a new festival item for 2023.

Crawfish Pie Magnolia Terrace
  • Price: $6.75
  • Special Diets: N/A
  • Rating: 2.0/5

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Awkward to cut into, very fishy flavor.
Felicia: Fishy and creamy and gross. I think it’s fine probably if this is your sort of food, but I didn’t care for it.

Banana Foster Bread Pudding

A bananas foster bread pudding. This is a new festival item for 2023.

Banana Fosters Bread Pudding Magnolia Terrace
  • Price: $4.75
  • Special Diets: Kid-Friendly
  • Rating: 3.3/5

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Slightly sweet. Great flavors. Nice balance to the other items at this booth.
Heather: Very moist and honestly not too sweet. The bread is nicely done, caramel tastes yummy.
Felicia: A little too mushy but the flavors are great. Nice spice to it, the sauce is delicious and the bananas are cooked well.
Allyson: I’m not a huge bread pudding person and this just proves why. The mushy texture is unappealing especially in the heat.

Bayou Cocktail

Bayou Cocktail, which is Bayou Spiced Rum, coconut rum, fruit punch, and Minute Maid Orange Juice.

Bayou Cocktail Magnolia Terrace
  • Price: $12.00
  • Made with alcohol? Yes
  • Rating: 3.3/5

Our Thoughts

Shannon: Hard to go wrong with rum and fruit punch. Delicious. Decent portion.
Heather: I really like it but coconut in the USA is confusing to my brain.
Felicia: This is super sweet and the coconut flavor is pretty strong. Slight fruit punch flavor.
Allyson: This tastes much better than last year and not overly sweet. Good for a hot day.

Central 28 Beer Co. Pretty Things Ale

  • Made with alcohol? Yes
  • Rating: 3.3/5

Our Thoughts

Shannon: One of the best light and refreshing beers I’ve had. Would order full sized.
Heather: Honestly not a lot of flavor. Good to wash the spicy I’m on down or as part of a flight, but not special enough to order a full size of.
Felicia: Loved this. Like but with big flavor. Not hoppy or bitter.
Allyson: It’s an ok lighter beer. Not a standout.

Our Thoughts

Heather: Double IPAs are the jam. They give you flavor without tasting pretentious.
