FULL REVIEW: 2 EPCOT Food & Wine Festival Booths Are Now Open (And You Don't Want To Miss Them)

The 2025 EPCOT Food & Wine Festival may have kicked off back in August, but TWO booths only just recently opened!

That’s right — a brand-new booth, Gyozas of the Galaxy, and the returning Coastal Eats booth were late to the party this year, but that doesn’t mean we aren’t stoked to check them out. We’re bringing you our full reviews of these booths below — so let’s do it!

TWO Marketplace Food Booths recently opened at the 2025 EPCOT Food & Wine Festival, and we’re bringing you our full reviews below! And, if you haven’t already seen it — check out our massive review of every single food booth at this year’s festival here.

Gyozas of the Galaxy (NEW!) — 4.5/5

This BRAND-NEW booth just opened for the very first time, so you know we were excited to check it out. First up, we tried the Buffalo-style Dumplings: Chicken dumplings with buffalo sauce, celery root purée, blue cheese cream, crumbled blue cheese, shaved carrot, and micro celery for $6.00. These had a nice low Buffalo heat to them, and we enjoyed the blue cheese flavor, and the vegetables also worked well together. They weren’t our favorite, but we appreciated them.

Next up, we had the French Onion Soup-style Dumplings. These are pork and beef soup dumplings with caramelized onions, sherry-beef broth, onion and Gruyère soubise, Parmesan cracker, and micro chives. Get them for $6.00. We were so impressed by these! It’s quite literally French onion soup in dumpling form, and we almost couldn’t believe it. It was nice and brothy, thick and cheesy, and all the best parts of French onion soup. If you know that’s a flavor profile you like, you’ve gotta try these!

The Street Corn-style Dumplings are chicken dumplings with tomatillo salsa verde, street corn salad, cotija cheese, lime crema, and cilantro for $6.00. We loved the taste of these and the tomatillo flavor that you’d find in an enchilada. They’re filled to the max, the street corn is nice and toasted, and the crema sauce and cotija cheese are fantastic additions. We’d get these again, no questions asked!

To drink, we had the Pineapple Colada made with white rum, DOLE Pineapple Juice, and sweetened coconut milk for $12.00. This honestly tasted like someone had opened a can of DOLE Pineapple juice and poured rum into it, then just handed it to us. We wished it tasted more like a colada to us, or maybe it was frozen, but we understand that we grabbed this on day one, so we’re willing to give it another shot, once the booth has been open for a bit.

We also picked up the Willamette Valley Vineyards Pinot Gris, which was $6.50. This is nice and sweet, but also dry. It was a quick and easy sip of wine that we had zero complaints about!

We thought Gyozas of the Galaxy is a really solid booth, especially if you’re craving some dumplings or a great glass of wine. What an incredible debut year for this new addition! Watch out, because we have a feeling the lines are going to be LONG for this booth, but it’ll be worth it.

Coastal Eats — 4.5/5

This returning booth was also late to open this year, and we’ve been excited to check out the new offerings here. We grabbed the returning Lump Crab Cake with cajun-spiced vinegar slaw and rémoulade for $7.50.

This is a little on the greasy side, but the flavor is oh so good, especially with that cajun-spiced vinegar slaw. It’s crisp on the outside but juicy and soft on the inside. We were very impressed with this, and if you’re a fan of crab cakes at all, this is a must-grab!

Next up was the new Peruvian Ceviche with mahi mahi, shrimp, sweet potato, chulpe, choclo, and leche de tigre. This is available for $7.50. The seafood itself here was fine, but we would have liked a little more lime flavor. This wasn’t anything that blew us away, but we did enjoy the mix of seafood with hearty vegetables. The presentation is really what’s going to catch your eye here, so talk about Instagrammable!

The Seaside Pot Pie is also new, and it’s made with shrimp, scallops, crawfish tails, and lobster bisque topped with puff pastry. This one will run you $7.50. While we were bummed at first that the lobster tail was no longer available here, this was THE BEST thing that could have replaced it.

This is a super buttery lobster bisque, so it has a more yellow color rather than an orange one, and we loved that it was essentially like taking these pieces of seafood, dipping them in butter, and then putting them in a pot pie form. The puff pastry was beautifully flaky, and we loved that we could take the sides of it and then dip it into the lobster bisque. The crawfish tails and shrimp were briny with the slightest bit of chew in the best way, and we will absolutely be back to get this one!

The Boyd & Blair Pomegranate Codder is returning from last year and is $12.50. This one was great with lots of pomegranate flavor, but you’ll definitely want to stir it up. The codder itself has a burn, sort of like a tequila, and the base of it tastes similar to an Arnold Palmer, which we really enjoyed!

You can also pick up the Rileys Lookout Sauvignon Blanc (New) for $6.50. This was on the sweeter and drier side, but it also has a bit of a sour taste, reminiscent of a true green grape kind of wine. However, we don’t think it’s totally something that will knock your socks off, but if you know you like this flavor profile, it’s a refreshing sip!
