How Is The 50 Prime Time Cafe For Dinner?

[BABYJOSIE98]

It will just be me and my DD (7) and Nephew (10) at MGM that day and I was trying to find somewhere for us to eat around 5:30 to escape the heat. We will be there at the end of May.
Do you think they would like it?? Can you get a simple burger and fries??

Any suggestions??

We are staying at BWV...I was even thinking of grabbing something to eat at the Boardwalk before heading back to the studios for the evening???

It is so hard to make ADR this far ahead of time. I have already changed things around 5 times. I bet the cast members are loving this!

We loved Prime Time. Had a great time, the food was good and we loved the atmosphere of the place. Don't believe they have burgers. If you want burgers, I think Sci-Fi would be the place to go, or like you mentioned, try ESPN club on the Boardwalk - great burgers!

I really like 50's Prime Time Cafe! Their fried chicken is excellent!

Awesome fried chicken, killer smores desert and the best electric blue lemonade ever

I enjoyed the Dads pot roast when i was there last summer. I had the onion rings as an app and apple cobler for dessert!

 

[DJBounce]

The Pot Roast was fantastic, we fought over the smores dessert and Dad's super sundae was outstanding!! The atmosphere is fun, too!!

 

[Thinktinknpixiedust]

Its worth stopping in for the smores!! and yes the chicken is delicious!!

We love 50's Prime Time and try to eat there on every trip.

In September my DH wasn't too pleased with his entree, he ordered the Pot Roast and it was extremely fatty. He should've sent it back, but didn't. Usually we all have a very good meal and a great time with the interraction from the wait staff.

The 50's Prime Time is a MUST on every trip for us. Great atmosphere and really good food with large portions. I really don't think they get enough credit for their food.
You should love the place.

ps.....if you don't want to participate in the "fun" don't worry......most of the servers can sense who to play with and who to leave alone..

 

[BABYJOSIE98]

I thought it might be kind of fun....We would participate!

I will keep the ADR that I have set up. We might need a break and too sit for an hour or so.

I made the ADR for 5:30 and then I saw the Parade is at 5:30 also??? hmmm we may just skip that parade???


Thanks so much!

The fried boursin cheese and the seafood (well, really trout dip) are very good.

And Dad's super sundae is enormous!

We love 50's Primetime. I'm sure the kids will love it too. There Fried Chicken is fantastic. We eat at 50's on every trip.

'50s is a must-do for us.
We love it. The food is always good as are the adult beverages and the desserts.
You gotta try the s'mores.
