Suggestions for meals at US/IOA/Citywalk?

[goofyfordisney]

What is your favorite place to eat at US/IOA/City Walk?

My mom likes to eat "healthy" and isn't a big eater. We are looking for somewhere to take a break from our busy 1 day, 2 park schedule...somewhere with a good, relaxed atmosphere...in either park.
Is Mythos a good choice?

For dinner I was thinking that we would do something over at CityWalk. I would love to do Margueritaville...

What would your recommendations be?

Thanks in advance!

Mythos has wonderful food, with some healthy choices, all plated beautifully and a decent value. Margaritaville is fun - be aware that most of the things you order are large enough to share - the nachos are great! Inside is quite noisy - you can also eat out on the porch.

yes the nachos at margaritaville are excellent. when my family go to us/ioa/citywalk we always eat at the Nascar Cafe, NBA City, Hard Rock Cafe, Mel's Diner, and Margaritaville. it sounds like a lot but they are all excellent!!!! definitely worth the raised prices too.

Mythos is outstanding. It is my favorite restaurant in the Universal area.

My allllllll time favorite is Lombard's Landing on the water in the Amity/Jaws section of Universal Studios (across from Earthquake); calming atmosphere; not noisy; I was just there on 10/30; they have very good salads/fabulous crab dip; more of a nice restaurant experience than some of the "faster" service restaurants. I had a grilled Mahi Mahi that was excellent; they had four different selections of fish as "catch of the day" which you could have prepared many different ways, broiled, grilled, etc. My sister had a grilled chicken caesar salad that was also very good.

Depends on what time you are at Citywalk for a relaxed atmosphere; we went to Margaritaville one night and it was VERY loud & crowded. Not sure if children are going to be joining you? Expect more kids at Nascar/NBA and the more themed restaurants. Have a great time!

We will probably want to spend most of our time at Universal Studios so, we probably will be eating lunch there. Lombard's Landing sounds like it might work out best for us.

Thanks for the suggestions!

Lombard's Landing is great. It's so relaxing in there and the food is wonderful. I love their seafood cob salad! Also, any of their grilled fish I've had has been wonderful.

The best food at Citywalk IMO is at Margaritaville. My DSs love the atmosphere as well as the food. The adult portions are quite large so two can split if you are not big eaters at lunch.

We LOVED Emril's in CW, the Hard Rock (between IOA & US) was great, and we had a few hurricanes in Pat O'Brien's in CW as well which were awesome!

Mamma Della's was also very nice in PBH- if you are staying there or have a group- they serve delicious Italian family style- TONS of food!

We had lunch at Emeril's. It was excellent and the food was divine!
