Where to eat at Universal Orlando including menus

We enjoyed both Mythos and the Confisco Grille this trip and I'm hard pressed to say which one we liked more. The Confisco Grille seems to be getting better and better.

I appreciate this list. It still helps a lot.
 
The Hard Rock Hotel at Universal just posted on their Facebook page that if you can finish the Kitchen Sink Cake (7 layers) and a Kitchen Burger in under 30 minutes you get it free. I think I may have to step up to the plate on that one next month!
 

My husband and I are planning our first trip in October and want to make the best of it. Do any of these restaurants offer buffets?

The Wantilan Luau also serves food buffett style but I'm not sure if the buffett remains open during the show.

Wantilan - Luau

Let us know how that goes! I'd also love to hear how the food at The Kitchen was.
 
Some food questions for my next months trip!!When you buy the souvenir cup does it come with Pop for the 6.99 or do you pay for a refill then.?Would my DD group be able to buy the kids package breakfast at RPR?and finally can you use the refillcups at BK in Citywalk??
 
No problem on pics and review of food from the Kitchen.

It's now become a DEFINITE and maybe the thing I'm looking forward to the most of my upcoming trip (and this includes our first ever stay at Art of Animation, one room at Lion King, one room at Mermaid). I'll be with a vegetarian and the Hard Rock said the contest allows you to substitute the regular burger for a veggie burger. So two of us will be taking the challenge. We're three weeks away now and really looking forward to it.

The Hard Rock Hotel also sells a GIGANTIC DONUT in one of their stores. I noticed it the last time I was there in April but not until after I had already bought something to eat. If they are there again we are gonna get one of those as well. I think we've been inspired by shows like Man vs. Food! I joke with my girlfriend that this is my chance to see if I have what it takes to make it on the competitive food eating circuit. She's going to be rooting for the house to win on the challenge! ;)

Sharing this from Hard Rock Hotel -

LIKE a challenge? Then try The Kitchen Sink Cake – standing seven layers high and weighing in at over two pounds – it’s pure confectionary nirvana! Finish this bad boy along with The Kitchen Burger, on your own in 30 minutes or less, and it’s on us!

Yes, the cups come filled when you buy them and they can only be used in the parks. You can't refill them in Citywalk or the hotels.


Which kids package breakfast at RPR are you referring to? Is it at the Islands? If it is at a sit down restaurant, then probably not. You can order a kids breakfast through room service though.
 
englishrose, aren't your "kids" adults?

the trip i'm thinking of is where you are the chaperone.

Pastamore market has the cups and refills on their menu :confused3, I did know not at Resorts and obviuosly sit down restaurants anywhere , but as Pastaore had the I wondered if BK did too

Yes the are adults, it was just that the kids breakfast package wa a juice, pastry and yoghurt or fruirt while the adult included coffe and not all of them drink coffe , I was just wondering . Can always do the ala carte too !! Will need a quick on the go first full day so we can make the early entry for WHOP :banana:

since you are staying at rph, why don't you use the orchard court lounge for breakfast?
it is located in the lobby of the hotel.



it opens at 6:00 am and is ala cart.
you'll have plenty of time to eat and get to the park before opening.
