We wil be visiting WDW this fall, and we will be using the MYW Dining plan. DH, DD7, and I have decided on all of our TS restaurant choices except dinner at MGM.

We aren't really the "play along" types- so we are leaning away from 50's Primetime Cafe- but we are at a loss as to what else we want to try. Sci Fi sounds fun, but it gets such bad reviews! How are Mama Melrose and Hollywood & Vine?

I'd appreciate your opinions and suggestions- thanks!
 
Well, I've eaten at all of them, and my recomendations would be first choice, Sci Fi and second Hollywood and Vine.

VERY controverial, as you will get many people who LOVE, the Brown Derby, but we had 4 bad meals there. No one cared for any of them. The service was terrible.

Mama Melrose was very crowded and two of us did not like our meals. We REALLY are NOT picky eaters!!!

We like the atmosphere at Sci Fi. We've always found the food to be good, although we've mostly ordered sandwiches. Large portions and we love the shakes and malts. This is my first choice at MGM.

I always use Hollywood and Vine for the Fantasmic package, if you want a typical buffet, this is the place. Good service and good buffet type food.

The last time we ate at Mama Melrose's we had a great waitress and our food was fine. The meal at Hollywood & Vine was "all you can eat," and we all enjoyed it as well. I hope our luck holds because we're eating at the Sci-Fi in nine days.:cloud9:

Take your pick and have fun.
 

We are all about hollywood and vine. Every trip. Great buffet, real meats and vegetables, not cheap carb filled buffett. great kid selections, great desserts. a must do every time we are at MGM! Have fun :flower:
 
Our favorite is Sci-Fi...never had any trouble and all the food has been good. We love all the campy sci-fi movies! :)

Why not hop on the boat and ride over to either Boardwalk or Yacht Club. It's a nice relaxing boat ride and it opens up your options tremendously. Spoodles and Flying Fish are both at Boardwalk while Yacht Club has Yachtsman Steakhouse. All three restaurants get high reviews.
You can even skip the boat ride back to MGM and take a leisurely walk back and work off the dessert. The walk back from Boardwalk is only 10 to 15 minutes.
 
The only two we have eaten at there are 50's and Mama Melrose. I would eat at Mama Melrose again. We ate there late in April, and were pleasantly surprised!
 
We didnt care for Sci Fi and Primetime wasnt our style either.
That being said, we have enjoyed a meal at Mama Melrose the last 3 trips and we also enjoyed Hollywood and Vine. Would choose MM over H &V though.
Good luck deciding! :)
 
We love Sci-Fi for lunch. Great burgers! We didn't care for H&V, but liked Mama Melrose's and loved Hollywood Brown Derby. Have fun choosing.
 
We liked Sci-Fi for the atmosphere. The food is just so-so but we will go back there again and again. If you haven't done it before, I would not skip it. DH and I were pretty impressed. I did just read a review in which they said the steak was actually pretty good. We have also eaten at Brown Derby and Hollywood and Vine. I can't remember much about Brown Derby though everyone seems to like it. Hollywood and Vine has a diner setting but the food was great. It's buffet style and there were many choices to choose from. Sci-Fi would get me vote though. It's just a unique experience and not just another restaurant. HTH! :flower:
 
We really enjoyed our meal at H&V !!! We were suprised by the selection of the buffet !
 
What did they have on the buffet?? I am having a hard time deciding on a MGM meal too.
