Changes

The restaurant dining locale that is currently known as The Garden Grill Restaurant had its genesis early on in the development of [[The Land ]] pavilion. Long before EPCOT Center would open, Tony Baxter's plans for the pavilion called for a rotating treetop restaurant <ref> http://www.martinsvids.net/?p=652 </ref>. Although the pavilion that opened with the rest of EPCOT Center was drastically different then than Baxter's planned pavilion, the rotating restaurant idea stuck, and on October 1, 1982 , the Good Turn Restaurant opened to guests <ref> https://d23.com/a-to-z/good-turn-restaurant-the/ </ref>. The name of the dining location came from the fact that the restaurant rotated, allowing guests to look down into various scenes in [[Listen to the Land]] <ref>http://waltdatedworld.com/id112.htm </ref>.  In May 1986, The Good Turn Restaurant was rechristened The Land Grille Room <ref> https://d23.com/a-to-z/good-turn-restaurant-the/ </ref>. The Land Grille Room operated from May 14, 1986 to October 4, 1993 <ref> https://d23.com/a-to-z/land-grille-room-the/ </ref>. At this time, the restaurant closed as part of the larger refurbishment of [[The Land]]that happened in conjunction with Nestle assuming sponsorship of the pavilion. On on November 15, 1993 , the restaurant reopened as The Garden Grill Restaurant <ref> https://d23.com/a-to-z/garden-grill-restaurant/ </ref>.  Beginning on November 8, 2015, The Garden Grill Restaurant began serving breakfast and lunch <ref> http://www.wdwmagic.com/dining/garden-grill-restaurant/news/28jul2015-epcots-garden-grill-to-expand-operating-hours-to-breakfast-and-lunch.htm </ref>.
