But luckily, the chicken was particularly good and not overcooked at all. The only thing she didn’t like was that she never found any blue cheese crumbles in the salad, unfortunately. She found the Cobb salad to be excellent. It also comes with balsamic vinaigrette dressing, but she requested blue cheese dressing instead. My mother chose the Cobb salad, which comes with rotisserie chicken, tomatoes, chopped egg, blue cheese crumbles, and bacon. And the sauce was creamy without being too heavy. Luckily, the main part of the meal, the fettuccine, did not disappoint. The flavors were too strong and overpowered the bread taste. Unfortunately, the bread was actually TOO garlicky. We could have added mushrooms (for free), chicken (for $4 extra), or shrimp (for $5 extra), but none of us opted for that. This dish consists of alfredo sauce and fettuccine pasta with a piece of garlic bread. Instead, some of us went with the Prehistoric Pasta.

While the burgers (like the Bronto Burger, with American cheese on a brioche bun, or the Mushroom and Swiss Burger) sounded appealing, we’d had burgers earlier that day at Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe in the Magic Kingdom. Luckily, we were all able to find entrees that sounded good. The T Rex Cafe menu had changed since the last time we’d been there.

Overall, service was fairly quick inside the restaurant and very friendly.īut I’m sure you want to know about the food! After all, if the dinosaurs are great but the food is awful, that doesn’t make for a good overall experience, right? T Rex Restaurant Food

I love being able to have new and different experiences each time I visit a place. This was something that I had never noticed before, which was neat. We were seated in the part of the restaurant where you can actually see the meteor effects above you during the meteor showers. It ended up being just an 8 minute wait! And you get a text when your table is ready, which means you can visit some of the stores nearby (like World of Disney) and go shopping while you wait. We were told it would be a 35 minute wait but could be shorter. (You can sign up online or buy a Landry’s Select Club card at a restaurant, but if you buy it in person you’ll still need to register online.) So basically, make sure you register at least 24 hours before you plan on going to T-Rex – you’ll get your money back and get priority seating!Īnyway, because we were Landry’s Select Club members, we were able to go to the top of the wait list. It costs $25 to join the Landry’s Select Club, but you then receive a $25 welcome reward within 24 hours of registering online. I highly recommend that you join, if you’re not already a member. A couple of us are Landry’s Select Club members, which gives you priority seating, even without a reservation. Now, you can get a reservation for T-Rex beforehand, but we did not. It’s a fun and relaxing boat ride, though I do recommend bringing a jacket as it can get a little chilly at night on the water. We were able to take a boat from our hotel, Disney’s Old Key West Resort. So now that you have an idea of what the restaurant is like, let’s talk about the experience my family had when we had dinner there earlier this month. There’s also a Build-A-Dino (think Build-A-Bear, only with dinosaurs) where you can create your own Friend-a-saur. There are a lot of fun dinosaur themed souvenirs in the gift shop. Check out the animals’ reactions, and look to the ceiling – you can see the meteors in the sky.Īnother fun thing to do during your visit is to check out the gift shop. That being said, it’s quite impressive to see. So, keep this in mind if you’re wondering if T-Rex is a good fit for your family or group of friends. Now, this involves things like lighting effects and loud noises, which can be frightening for some children (and disturbing for anyone who is sensitive to those types of sensory experiences). The most eye catching to me is the ice cavern, which actually changes colors during your meal.Ī few times during your meal (depending on how long you’re in the restaurant), you’ll experience a meteor shower. The restaurant is divided into themed rooms or sections.
