Strange question about restaurants

[sadiwest]

For our day at HS, I chose 50's PTC (sorry I don't know the abbreviations everyone uses), based on the offerings.

I really don't want two big sit-down meals, but was trying to get a second restaurant booked for dinner, just for the experience. No availability. Would they let us (dh, dd, me) in just to look at it, you think?

What restaurant are you trying to look at?

You can ask to use the restroom and saunter in to grab a peek.

I have never seen or heard anyone doing this but I would hope they do not let people traipse around a restaurant for no reason. Requests to use the bathroom should be directed to the nearest public one

50's is VERY small and tight space. There is just not any room for extra guest to walk around.

If you search YouTube for it, you will find an abundance of videos showing the restaurant. You can tour vicariously.

Many restaurants have bars/lounges so just go in and order a drink or snack. Or just saunter

Assume you're talking about Sci fi? Thr answer is no, but other restaurants maybe.

Sci-Fi...

That's where we're actually eating.

I would keep trying for Sci-Fi and maybe just order dessert at 50's. The food at 50's is pretty bad, IMHO.

Well we don't have a reservation at Sci Fi. We have one at 50's. Food, understandably, is subjective. I've eaten there in the past, many years ago.

50's Prime Time is great and a lot of fun. Make sure to engage with your server and they will engage back. Have fun with it!

Sci-Fi is fun too, but there's not all that much to see. It's just some car-shaped booths and a movie screen. I wouldn't worry that much about it - just consider it for next time.

I don’t think they will. They typically don’t allow that to happen. I tried to see be our guest when I was on a solo trip before I’d dined there and was told no. This is a good reason to come back and try another restaurant. Sc-fi is a cool set up, foods just so so though.

You can often get a booking at Brown Derby when other locations are full.

I though you said you were looking for a reservation for Sci-Fi?

As I understand it, they want to eat a Prime Time (where they already have an ADR), they only want to walk in and look at Sci-Fi (and are wondering if they can do that without purchase with an ADR).

I was but I don't have one.

I tried to get a reservation for Sci Fi...yeah we'd eat there for as late as we could get in, but I've been unable to get a reservation. If we got a reservation, we'd eat. Im not looking to just hog their space.
That being said I was just curious, but like OP said I'll look on YouTube. I guess it was not well looked-upon to think we could check it out in person.
We have a reservation at 50's.

Yeah I understand. Just my (weird) dh loves cars lol and dd (12) would probably think it's cool. I don't even care about the food just wanted to have the experience, but can't get a reservation.
I've been checking twice a day for weeks.
