Question About 50's PT Portions

[FayeW]

The home style food looks very good on the 50's PT menu. Would the adult portion of the pot roast or meatloaf be big enough to split between 2 children? I like the idea of giving them some good, nutritious food instead of fried "everything".

I'm sure it would be. My DH and I are big eaters and we split the pot roast for lunch. It was perfect. Even split in half, both get a decent amount of food, but not overwhelming

My family loves the 50's. I would definitely think 1 adult lunch is more than enough for 2 kids. Your family will love this restaurant. The servers are
hillarious. Just made reservations 20 minutes ago for my family to have lunch there, again, for our trip this November. Have fun.

We ate at the 50 cafe, just got back from our trip last week, the meatloaf is plenty big to share, there were 5 of us and we each got our own meal, and we all wished we had shared, there was so much wasted food, and we are Big people, and can really eat, didn't think this would happen to us, I got the chicken , three big pieces of that, just too much, and I tryed the meatloaf it was so good, I say share so you don't have so much wasted food ! If I knew how to do a picture I would post the meatloaf my dd had that, and didn't eat but half.

Thank you so much for the replies! I have just made 2 ADR's for 50's PTC, one for an early dinner for our family of 4 after a day at TL, and one for a late lunch (3:55) for our group of 8. We wanted late lunch/early dinner because we want to line up for Fantasmic as well (decided against the FDP). On the late lunch day, I also made an early lunch (11:05) for our group of 8 for Sci-Fi Dine In. None of us have been to MGM before, and even if we just go in and have onion rings or a dessert, it will give the kids a chance to experience the ambiance of the Dine In. and tide us over to the big meal at 50's later.

I would consider the portions plenty big enough to split between two children. The Fried Chicken dinner comes with 3 pieces of chicken.

During our visit there two weeks ago both my DH and 14 y.o. son had the Pot Roast and it was so fatty they could barely eat it. They should've sent it back, but we didn't want to spoil what was otherwise a very fun time there.

We'll still be faithful 50's Prime Time Cafe fans, they just might order something different next time.
