It’s our favorite time of the year in EPCOT…time to eat around the world!

Well, we suppose you can technically do that any time of the year, but it’s particularly fun during the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival! The festival has returned for 2026 with over 30 food booths, and we’re going to check them all out. Up next? The Gyozas of the Galaxy booth!

Menu

Welcome to Gyozas of the Galaxy, a booth that was new at the Food & Wine Festival in 2025 and was an immediate hit. It’s back for its second year with a few different dumpling options — two new ones and one returning.

There’s also one beverage option, the Willamette Valley Vineyards Pinot Gris. Now that we’ve taken a look at the menu, let’s dive into the food itself!

Eats

The first new item to try is the Basil Pesto Chicken Dumplings. These are Chicken Dumplings with Basil Pesto, Fonduta, Tomato Confit, and Balsamic for $5.99.

The dumplings themselves are firm with a strong bite. The basil pesto gives the chicken dumplings a slight earthy tone and balances out the dish. But it’s the fonduta that really takes this thing away. The dumplings are covered in it, giving the dumplings a rich, cheesy flavor. If you don’t like tomatoes, don’t fear this dish, because we couldn’t taste them. It just adds to the firm texture of the dumplings and gives it a little sweetness.

We also tried out the new Edamame Dumplings, made with Butternut Squash Purée, Caramelized Onions, Sage, and Walnut-Toasted Garlic Aillade. These are plant-based, and they’re $5.29.

The dumplings have a firm crust with a chewy, soft center. These are very earthy, with the squash purée adding sweetness and the caramelized onions adding a little more sweetness and unique flavors.

The one returning food item from last year is the Street Corn-style Dumplings. These are chicken dumplings with tomatillo salsa verde, street corn salad, cotija cheese, lime crema, and cilantro for $5.99. This was our favorite item on the menu last year, packed with filling and basically elote in a dumpling. But how do they taste this year?

The dumplings are soft and firm, requiring a chew, but it’s not excessive. These chicken dumplings are super savory. The cilantro gives it a slight kick, while the corn adds a little sweetness and slight crunch.

And then, there’s just one beverage on the menu.

Drinks

The Willamette Valley Vineyards Pinot Gris is back on the menu in 2026 for $7.50. When we had it last year, it was a lovely dry wine with a little bit of sweetness. It was pretty easy to sip.

So should you go to Gyozas of the Galaxy?

OVERALL

Overall, we really enjoyed Gyozas of the Galaxy’s options for 2026. Whether you’re looking for traditional or adventurous dumplings, you’ll be able to find it here. The Basil Pesto Chicken Dumplings were our standout favorite, but we’d ultimately recommend all of the gyozas here.
