Just wondering if eating at Brown Derby where you can order the "most expensive" item is worth it for the package or Prime Time 50's or Mama Melrose is good enough? We have never tried Brown Derby due to the price but maybe this is the time?
 
That's a personal decision regarding what you want to spend and eat. We always viewed these dining packages as paying $15-$25 to have a reserved section to sit - then the food costs what it costs. You're still going to pay more at Brown Derby - If you're still concerned about the cost, you might try one of the other options. Or maybe it's time to splurge a bit and see if you like it!

That is what we were thinking...maybe time to splurg.

Imo Mama Melrose is a decent “bang for your buck”.

bread service is good - no extra charge
average app is $12 - I get the margherita flatbread -$16-share with the husband and he gets dessert and we share
charred strip entree-$36 or parm
Drink -$4

package is $54 and You can easily ”break even”

the $22 for kids is not too bad either

I don’t love TBD but everyone’s tastes vary. there a couple of menu items I like.
 

Depends on if you would normally order whatever the most expensive item on the menu is if money were no object of if you would just ordering it because you can. Usually the most expensive item is steak, I don't eat steak so, for me, as far as bang your buck, no HBD would not be it. Having said that, of the restaurants offered, I would go to HBD just because I usually eat there anyway and prefer the food there to the other places.
