Where to eat at Universal Orlando including menus

[MyHappiestPlace]

Confisco's has a full gluten free menu. Mythos has gluten free options. Counter service won't have a ton of options but check Thunder Falls Terrace menu because they do have some interesting things.

Thank you very much!!

Is there anywhere to view the current menu's & prices for the restaurants in Universal studio's and IOA?

 

[disneyairforceguy]

When you go to Universals main page, look for the dining link. When you are in that page, scroll down and look for IOA. To get the menus, you have to click each individual restaurant, and scroll down till you see "click here for menu". It takes a while to go through all of them, but you should find exactly what you need.

I'm going to merge this thread into the main food sticky thread.

phew.. what a great thread .. went thru most of it last weekend ..
but I have some questions now..

is the AAA discount used at most of these places .. onsite and in the parks
(TS and CS)/

also buying the refillable mugs at the parks.. are the refills station easy to get to or are they few around. wondering if its worth it to lug the mug around the parks.

I'm considering getting an annual pass for one of the tickets on our trip this summer. The additional discount on the hotel with the release of the summer APH rates will just about cover the extra cost of the pass vs. a four day park hopper ticket.

So, now I'm looking at how much benefit I'll get from it in dining. I understand that the pass will get me a 10% food discount at "most restaraunts". However, I've not been able to find a definitive list of what places to eat are covered by the discount and which are excluded.

Does such a list exist somewhere?

Thanks,

By most, I think there are only one or two that aren't. I've used it at all the park restaurants as well as most hotel restaurants. There are a few hotel restaurants, like Bice, that I've never eaten at so I can't help with that one.

There seems to be some new rule about using the AAA discount, so I'm not sure what the current situation is there. Seems like they are putting a minimum on it. For the refillable mugs...the ones that have free refills are only at select places with the Freestyle coke machines where the mugs with a low refill price are at any counter service restaurant.

We are regular WDW visitors but will be going in May for one day doing both parks. It is my Sister-in-Laws birthday what would be a good place to go for Dinner and can you make reservations ahead. We are a party of 6 with 5 adults and a 12 year old boy.

I would look at the food sticky at the top of the board...However...In the themeparks we Love Mythos at IOA,not really a fan of anything at the studios( we ate at lombards landing ..it was ok , nothing fabulous).At the resorts we like the Kitchen or The Palm over at Hard rock and Mama Dellas over at Portofino Bay.Haven't eaten at Royal Pacific..Most venues take ressies and you can book them at Opentable.com anywhere from 7-90 days depending on the restuarant.Also of note with Mythos.Unless the park is open late, Mythos usually has its latest meal at 3pm ish

 

[macraven]

i vote for Finnegans at the studios!
ressie can be made in advance for this place.


you said you are doing both parks in one day for a group of 6 and ending it with a birthday dinner.


why don't you stay in the parks until they close and then do dinner at City Walk?


that way you will have time to hit the highlights in both parks.


the menu/food sticky has lots of suggestions from other posters on where they felt was the best place for them.

I don't know how to start a new thread lol I have a few questions though I am currently planning a trip to universal for 2014 for 14 days been saving for a while lol

1. Are there other things to do other than sea world discovery cove and wdw we have about three days unscheduled

2. Are there fridges in the rooms for the on site hotels to save some money for lunch meats and etc.

3. I hear a lot about the refillable cups and people saying how much they cost how much are they?

4. Any cost effective meal ideas I would like to stay around the 100.00 range per day for three of us is that unrealistic ?

Just back yesterday !! Starting this past Monday there are changes to AAA discounts !! Only get them on $50 + purchases . We still used the card for dining with 5 of us the $50 limit was usually reached !!But the staff were still a little confused as to how and how much you got in discount but all were sure of the $50 minimum!!

Fridges are available for a fee unless you need them for medicine or babies. Call star services to get one. You can check out the menus on the first page for cost effective meals and refillable cups info.

What are good places at the city walk

Check the first page.

1. check the city's website for other tourist things you can do while on your vacation.

2. a mini dorm style fridge will be in all rooms. it stores the candies, drinks, etc that you can buy, charge on your hotel bill.
it is not usable for the guest's items you mentioned.
if you want to store perishables, buy a styrofoam cooler from publx/walgreens, etc and fill it with ice.
keep the ice chest in the bathroom tub in case it leaks.

3. check the website for current prices on the beverage cup deal.

4. you could get buy for $100 a day if you budget for counter foods.
it might be tight though.
you could also pack snacks, breakfast pastries, to cut back on park snacks.

since you are planning to go a year from now, no idea if prices for hotel, food will increase.
you can get an idea of prices for this year on the food/menu sticky.

Last time we visited (last February) we had breakfast at Three Broomsticks, is this still an option? The website says open for lunch and dinner.

Yes it is open for breakfast too. It used to be that it was only open for people who had packages or were staying onsite, but lately everyone has been welcome.
