Hi all! This is my MGM dining review!
Everything is rated out of 5 *'s (1 being bad 5 being fabulous!)
50's PrimeTime Cafe:
Star rating:***
Service: was wonderful! Drink refills came often and the food was served hot!
Food: DH and i both ordered the meatloaf and though it was served hot it was just okay..we have had much better. DD seemes to really like it though
Ambiance: Now this is obviously what you pay for!! haha it was fun and inviting and the bathrooms were clean and stocked with TP!
Value: you are definately paying more for where you are than the food and it just wasn't worth it THAT much...
We probably would eat here again when we ran out of other places to try, but it is not on our top ten list.
Meal Served: Lunch and the wait time was about 5 minutes with no ADR
Sci-Fi Dine-In:
Star Rating: *****
Service: The service was fantastic with Drinks and food, but not very personable..which was too bad.
Food: We both had hamburgers and both were cooked to perfection and the fries were YUMMY! It came very fast and was hot hot hot! DD loved her french fry! The burgers were not as good as beachs n cream, but were still delish!
Ambiance: WE LOVE IT HERE! we always insist we will try a new restaurant but of course we had to come here! it is too great!! we sat in the tables in the back cause DD needed a highchair and we wanted to also bring the stroller in. It was still fun! Didn't get a chance to try out the bathrooms though
Value: Okay yes this place is expensive if you go just for the food, bu i think the ambiance is what makes up for it! we have been here plenty of times before and will most likely keep on going! it's too fun and good to pass up.
Meal Served: Dinner. quoted a 30minute wait time but only waited about 10 (which we almost missed since we ran next door to the Book Store to buy: The Quotable Walt Disney!!)
MAMA Melrose's Ristorante Italiano:
Star Rating ***
Service: The service is what gets this place the three stars! we had a fabulous waiter at one point i had two full glasses of Sprite at my table because i was dying of thirst in the heat and i kept on drinking them down!! The food was served HOT and he even talked to our DD who is only 9months and not really interested in much! haha.. We had ADRS for 1230 but arrived early and sat on the bench outside at 1130 and i started getting sick (pregnant+heat+no food= very sick woman) and was sweating and had to find a bathroom to get sick in (the hostess must of overheard cause she opened the door and let my DH and DD sit inside in the AC and helped me get to the bathroom (i didn't eat breakfast cause i didn't want to be to full for lunch). She changed our ADR to 12 (when they opened) and got me a glass os Sprite and a pice of bread until they could seat us!! A+ service all the way!
Food:
Appetizer: Tomatoes and Mozzerella--THIS WAS DIVINE! everything was sooo fresh and delicious it was about 100times better than what i've had at my FILs place (100% Italian family). DD LOVED the tomatoes!
Main Course: Chicken Bruschetta Now this is what i ordered and i loved it MINUS the greens and vinagrette they served it with, i was not a fan of that stuff. DH had the Sicilian Sausage and he must have finished it in record timing AND he was FULL!>!?!?! (my husband is one of those guys that NEVER gets full so this was amazing!)
Could not make it towards dessert so it ends here!
Ambiance: Ehh..nothing too creative, but the restrooms were clean and the tables were spaced far enough apart that i didn't accidently put my fork into the neighboring tables meal!!
Value: In MPO i find the $$ to be too much for what was served. Even though the service was good! However the menu also needed to be more abundant. There wasn't much of a selection. We will probably never go here again, unless they get more items on it.
Meal Served: Lunch. Already explained wait time above.
