Sci-Fi Dine In (L)
This was my second time going to Sci-Fi. I love it for lunch! I like that it's dark and cool and a great break from the heat! I know the food is never anything stellar (it gets lukewarm reviews on here), but if you stick to the sandwiches and shakes, you are in for a good meal!
Drinks
We called today the DAY O'MILKSHAKE because we went to both Sci-Fi and 50's Primetime Cafe and both of those have milkshakes on the
DDP! Now today was a SCORCHING day, so a milkshake was DIVINE!
My Oreo Milkshake
I tried to bring the straw out so you could see how THICK this was. It was like spoonable milkshake (which was so what I wanted!) This was just awesome and I ate the whole thing!
Appetizers
DBFF's BLT Soup - A creamy tomato basil soup, topped with herb crouton, shredded lettuce and bacon $6.99
She thought this was good, because it was basically tomato soup with bacon and lettuce! She loved that this had lettuce in it. I think it's weird but, to each his own! I didn't try this so, judge for yourself if this looks good!
My Crispy Onion Rings - with horseradish dipping sauce $8.49
For me, I am either in the mood for onion rings or I'm not. Today, I was in the mood! I took one bite of these and was like OKAY and ate the whole thing! These were just crunchy and hot. Also, the batter wasn't too thick and the onion didn't slide out! A great choice if you like onion rings!
Entrees
DBFF's Angus Chuck Burger - flame broiled beef patty topped with cheddar or Swiss cheese, sauteed mushrooms, and crispy bacon, lettuce and vine-ripened tomatoes, served with a choice of cucumber salad or french fries $14.99
Unfortunately, DBFF asked for this with no mushrooms (which they said they could do), and it came with a pile of mushrooms on it! She decided not to send it back, but just scraped them off but lost most of the her cheese. She liked it otherwise. Here's the thing, when you're on the DxDP, you know there's always more food, so if you're not crazy about something, just move on and wait for the next course!
My Grilled Chicken Sandwich - With watercress, vine-ripened tomatoes, mayonnaise, and drizzled with balsamic vinegar on a caraway salted bun, served with a choice of cucumber salad or fries $14.99 (No MAYO)
Juicy, tender, nice toppings, yummy! The balsamic gave it a little punch of flavor and it was a great choice for me. But HUGE! It started falling apart, so once you put it down, prepare for it to collapse!
Desserts
DBFF's Apple Crumble $7.99
She took a bite and said "MMM!" We had just had MASSIVE cupcakes at Starring Rolls not long before this meal, so we had done the whole red velvet cake cheesecake deal and chocolate cake. So she was happy to get this for a change. She ate the whole thing!
My Hot Fudge Sundae - vanilla ice cream with hot fudge, whipped cream and a cherry $6.99
Okay, so I know you might be thinking, Oreo milkshake then an ICE CREAM SUNDAE? It's insane, I know, but it was so great to eat ice cream on that hot day! Plus, I split it with DBFF who wanted both the apple crumble and the ice cream so I got this to share. I didn't finish it, but I love hot fudge so I was glad to get a few bites of that.
