The was my first time in Hollywood Studios and I wanted to do a sit down dining experience. While the theming was pretty interesting and the waitresses were nice, I don’t know if I would come back when there are other places to try. The food was just ok and it took a long time to get our food and eat. I also couldn’t get over the smell in the restaurant. It definitely goes with the theming. It didn’t bother the person I was with but it definitely bothered me. We also didn’t have much acting from our waitress, but maybe we were just really polite.
Pros:
Theming and waitressesCons:
Food isn’t overly amazing, slower service, some waitresses might act more than others.Reviewed by Victoria222 Review Date: 03/01/2021

We were not impressed with this restaurant. The kids were bored and these were the most unhappy and unfriendly cast members we saw our entire trip. The meatloaf was good but the food wasn't amazing.
Pros:

My husband ordered the fried chicken. It was dry and cold, I ordered the pot roast. It looked like no other pot roast I have ever seen on top of mashed potatoes that were out of a box.
The waitstaff was wonderful, be sure to ask for a TV table...
A fun environment for sure, but the food is not the reason to go there!
Pros:
Fun environment!Cons:
Very average food, not prepared with any thought.Reviewed by cathdittr Review Date: 12/23/2020

We loved 50s prime time. emphasis on \\\"love-ed\\\". I am not one to write a negative review, however, we had gone as a party of three to 50s prime time in July of 2020-yes, of course, I need to take covid into consideration. However, the first thing that had happened to us was we were sat in a corner, away from the 50s setting..hmm, weird. Alrighty moving on! Our waitress was at all adhering to the typical 50s prime time environment that we all know and love, and noticeably, neither were any of the other staff members. Service was slow, yet not busy at all. We used to LOVE getting yelled at and treated like a family member. But this time, service was slow, acing was far below normal and the food was just...eh. We did split a PB&J shake as a table though! We were celebrating a birthday, and two of the three members of our party had never been here before. Overall, I was sad with the experience we had and hope that maybe, 50\\'s prime time takes this into consideration.
Pros:
The reservation was on time! That PB&J shake was delish! Family Style food was humbleCons:
no acting whatsoever cold food none of the parties had a waiter or waitress like they used to have- we want that 50s prime time feel BACK! 🙂Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 11/02/2020

We try to dine here every time we visit. This last time (Dec 2019) we were disappointed. Food was just 'so, so' and service was not good! We took a couple new to Disney and we were embarrassed to have gone on about how good it was. It wasn't worth the long wait, even though we had a reservation.

We had lunch here and the food was below average. We also had a big group and they put us in a very small table, it was way to crowed. Our waitress was very average and didn’t really interact with us. It was a big let down bc of all the good reviews we read
Pros:
Theme and decor was neatCons:
Average food and over crowdedReviewed by mcarolla Review Date: 03/31/2020

Not the worst but not the best option either. The theme is really the only reason I would recommend going here. The environment is fun: classic TV shows, hokey kitchens, mean cousins but the food is dreadful. There was absolutely no flavor to the fried chicken I had or the sampler meal my husband got. The veggies tasted straight out of a can without any flavoring on them. Which I guess follows the theme but like come on. It's too much money for bland food.
Pros:
ThemeCons:

My family and I did not have a reservation ahead of time for this restaurant; it was a last minute idea having been here before when I was little. The food was okay, but not my favorite I had while at the parks. The interactions were not what they used to.. I had my elbows on the table and wasn't told to put them down or told to stand up and sing a song. Those kind of interactions are what I remember about eating here and was sad those things no longer happen.
Pros:
Milkshakes were goodCons:
Not enough seating to wait for a table.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 01/08/2020

Food is expensive for very underwhelming Denny’s quality food. Was in an odd number groupand since you sit in cars, someone sits alone and with the movies playing, unless you’re sitting next to someone you can’t hear anyone else. Also the “film” that plays went through twice in the time we were there.
