Where to eat at Universal Orlando including menus

[Metro West]

In case anyone is interested in the Dining Plan....

This is for counter service...

 

[Lynne G]

Thanks for the flyer Metro. I wonder if an AP discount applies. I may get 2 deals to share with my 2 kids. I like that it includes many restaurants.

 

[macraven]

No ap discounts.

We bought 3 of the dining cards this week.

Do the math at the counter places to see if you will come out ahead w/ this plan.

Thanks Mac! So with tax, what was the total per deal? Where are you using them? I may still buy. I was looking at the stickie and Thunder Falls and Potter food sound like a good use of the counter credit, as long as we can use it on a combo entree. With the heat we will most likely like the extra drink and snack, like ice cream.

Who has the best chicken ceasar salad?

 

[Vegan]

I know this thread is old but I came across it before my trip to Universal and now want to review some vegan choices I found there:

City Walk-

Moe's - It is a chain of Mexican food restaurants that has GREAT vegan choices. I ordered one of their salads with tofu, beans, guacamole, and lots of veggies. it was BIG and for under $10 a good deal considering the prices at Universal

Starbucks - This was great for oatmeal in the morning.

Lowe's Pacific Resort Hotel-
This is the hotel I stayed at. Pool side you can order an organic tofu salad that was not bad.

Islands of Adventure
Three Broomsticks- Located in the Harry Potter section. In the morning I had oatmeal there. There is a meal called the "porridge breakfast" or something. It comes with oatmeal, fruit, and a buttered croissant. It costs $15 but I ordered just a side of oatmeal and it cost me only $4.

Universal Studios
Beverly Hills Boulangerie - Has a veggie sandwich that I believe is vegan. Has sprouts, avocado, and other veggies on it. Also has vegan side salad and fruit.

Hope that helps SOMEONE out there. The best thing I did was to bring LOTS of snacks with me. I had my oatmeal in the morning, scavenged what I could while in the park and supplemented with my snacks for lunch, and ate a big salad for dinner at Moe's.

I'm going to merge this thread into the food sticky...which should have been done long before now.

at the 3 B's, son ordered the chicken/ribs combo.
think that it was $15.99 + tax.
he bought the dp and besides the meal, he received a beverage with this entree
.
that left him with a beverage and snack credit to be used within the next 14 days.
next day he used the snack credit for frozen butterbeer which would have been about $5.
used the beverage credit when we went to louie's for pizza.

bought 2 of the dining plans at the simpsons food section.
the fish combo was about $15, so again we came out ahead.

i used it at simpsons also on a meal that would have been $15.

we used the snack credit at boulangerie for the cheesecakes a couple of days later.
beverages at another counter place were used when we ordered so we only paid for the sandwiches there.

we checked the prices out for snacks before going to the darkside.
we used the snack credit for anything that was listed at around $5.
we used the beverage credit when we did lunches.

you have 14 days from when you purchase this dp before it expires.

at louies, we would have come out at a loss if we used the dp there.
same at boulangerie and some others.

i used the AP for the discounts at other times which brought food costs down.

you can't use the ap and the dp at the same time.
can't use the ap to buy the dp.

 

[Lynne G]

Thanks Mac! I will probably do like you. AP discount when we buy less priced entree and use dp when buying combo entree. Mmmm cheesecake. That may be my use of a snack credit too. I like that we can break up the credits and use them over the 4 days we will be in the parks. DS would like the fish you mentioned, so I will keep that in mind when we are at the Studios.

Mythos' is pretty good!

 

[TinkerbellsMagic]

Mythos' is pretty good!

Thank you for your reply. I have my eye on the beef medallions there. May have to visit Mythos twice!

 

[momofboyz3]

Do all of the major TS restaurants (Mythos, Bubba Gumps, Lombards) accept the Universal Studios Gift Cards? I looked it up & it says "most" restaurants accept it. TIA

 

[macraven]

those accept it.

i can't think of any that don't take the gift cards.

we used gc for quite a few places in CW.

 

[macraven]

the food places at citywalk that accepts the ap for the discount, usually accept gift cards.

OOOOH MY MACRAVEN! ThankYou so much for the detailed response.. I really did try searching for it and your more detailed than anything I find in my searches
I love the idea of just having a bunch of GC to pay for dining (almost like my own dining plan... If that makes sense) thanks again!

Many people have reported that they were offered it at the quick service restaurants.

 

[macraven]

at every counter place we ordered, we were asked if we wanted the meal plan.
they will show the advertisement for it and explain it, answer questions.

Thank you damo and macraven.
