Nascar Cafe?

Any reviews, input, or opinions? We are thinking of trying it out. By the way DH and DS love Nascar.

I'd say reviews are positive. If you stick with simple stuff, you can't go wrong. It's when people order sea food, or the most expensive steak that problems happen. They get a super high expectation, and are let down. Stick with burger/fries, a sampler, or a chicken salad.

If they're Nascar fans, they'll love it. Each booth has a TV screen. There's a huge bar in the middle, and more TVs on the wall.

The only restaurants you need reservations in advance are Emiril's and Tchop Chop. For the other restaurants, you can make a reservation at the stand located at the entrance of City walk. I have a picture of it at the bottom of my page. Go there the day you plan to visit, say you want to make a reservation, and they'll give you a card. For all restaurants, the most crowded time is 8pm. If you are staying onsite, your room key will move you up the list. Otherwise, it's best to get there between 5-6pm, or go for lunch at 11:30am.

If you want a party type atmosphere and don't mind hanging out at the bar or walking around City walk for half an hour, go at 8pm. At Margaritaville, it's a party like you wouldn't believe and the wait is 1 hour to get in. Stilt walkers go thru the crowd, people singing, volcano going off.

Everyone basically does the same thing, they visit the parks, go back to the hotel and rest, then decide to go eat at 6pm. By the time they get out of their hotel room, and make it over to Citywalk, it's 8pm and the place is packed. Go early than this, unless you want the party atmosphere.

Those menu pictures are great Robvia! I didn't notice a kids menu for NASCAR Cafe. Do you know if they have a special kids menu? thanks.

yes they have a kid menu and steaks and sea food are high but when we were there on the 4th we tried it cause it had been 2 years since we were there and me and my wife had the brickyard burgers and my two boys had the luckydog which was a footlong hotdog with chili and cheese and the spinch dip with tortia chips and with tip it was almost 60.00 but jimmy bufetts was higher and the burgers there were awful but at nascar they were great.
By the way its Nascar grille now and not cafe and don't know what the big deal with that was but someone from the park got upset when I called it cafe.
