T-rex cafe

[3goofyboys]

You can call the restaurant directly to make a priority seating, and you can do it more than 90 days out that way. I called more like 93 days out and had my pick of any time I wanted, even for a Saturday.

This is what I did. I called T-Rex directly and booked 180 days out. I recently had to change my time because our flight comes in later than I had originally thought and I called the restaurant directly at 105 days out and had no trouble getting the new time.

Just booked our ADR for T-Rex for 30th July at 8pm using the online reservation system through disney - worked great! Can't wait to try it out along with my other ADR's - all firsts! Crystal Palace and 1900 Park Fayre!

I just had to share about our experience with T-Rex Cafe, it was out of this world wonderful. I can't wait to go back.

We had an 8pm ressie on Saturday June 6th and were seated promptly at 8pm (we tried to get in earlier but couldn't). We had the best waiter, Jason, he was so nice and very attentive. We sat next to the big Triceratops, which was soooo cute. It was a bit loud, but not as loud as and fussy as RFC and the food was much better and didn't taste like processed food products. I ventured out on the wild side and ordered the Triceratop Filet, which was perfectly cooked and cut like hot butter, it was well worth $30. Dh had the Stegosaurus Steak and Cheese sandwich, which looked equally delicious. We couldn't have asked for better service and Jason even surprised me with a birthday dessert and sang to me.

Did I mention that I can't wait to go back? I think I will book an ADR for our September and December trips.

BTW, I was also able to use my Safari Card from RFC to get the 10% discount

I booked directly with T-Rex for august 22 at 8pm. Much quicker than going through Disney dining. I am glad for the good reviews.

It is a savings plan/discount card for Rainforest Cafe has. You have to sign up at the restaurant, although if you call them you may be able to get info. Right now they are offering it for $10 to join and it is good for life and no need to pay the fee again unless you go more than 1 year with inactivity. You can get e-mails for discounts and other different offers (think I got one for a free dessert on my birthday ). It is really worth it. I was not happy at first because the food at RFC has gone down in quality, but T-rex renewed my faith. You have a choice of a free appitizer (managers 3 choices) or 10% off which is what we choose because an appetizer is just too much food.

It is only if you purchase the Premium or Platinum packages.

We love T-Rex!! We live in Orlando so when it first opened we went after a movie one afternoon and thought we'd give it a try because it was 2PM and there was no line. We had low expectations on the food we just wanted to see the decor and dinosaurs and experience it we figured we wouldn't be back in a hurry boy were we wrong the food was outstanding! Our first visit we got the fried cheese appetizer and I got the chicken sandwich and DH got ribs Fantastic! The next time again we went at 2 or 3PM so we walked right in without ADRs I had the Guac-asaurous burger and DH got the fish & chips and we got the nachos for appetizer. Holy cow the nachos were amazing but they were so so filling and my burger was amazing! DH enjoyed the fish & chips as well - he likes Raglan Roads better but he thought T-Rex's were very yummy! Then this past Saturday after picking my grandmother up from the airport we thought we'd take her somewhere fun. It was a little more crowded this time but we only had to wait for a table for 10 minutes I got the chicken sandwich again, grandma got the fish sandwich we she absolutely loved and DH got the chicken salad sandwich which he loved as well and then for dessert we shared the Chocolate Extinction and it was HEAVEN but we were so full after!! 6 people could easily share that dessert!!
