We attended the star wars breakfast, and was VERY dissappointed.
Being a party of 2 we where once again "hitch hikers". And placed in back seat with a family in front of us.
The Character's had no idea that our party was not the entire car and we where skipped by several character's who took pictures with kids from 1st row and then left. We had to track down a character handler and explain this.
It was sooooooooooo dark in the theater that sis almost ate the chocholate on the danishes and she is allergic. We could not see it. Food was warm but lack luster and since so where character's I would not do this again.
We really looked forward to this event and where very dissappointed.

The food was just average, but you don’t go here for the food you go for the atmosphere. It’s a pretty cool feeling to be able to sit in a Drive In movie theater from the 50‘s. They don’t have that many where I live anymore. Plus there’s no chance of being rained on in this one because it’s in a huge soundstage.
The cartoon and b-movie Sci-fi clips are hilarious, like "The Cat that hated People". I enjoy the regular tables in the middle the most, they seat 4 or more. The cars are cool looking, but the light inside them seems too bright. Plus last time I went the speaker just outside the vehicle was really messed up.
It was a really fun time though.

I ate a late lunch here by myself on May 2, 2014. I had the Vegetarian Shepards Pie. It was great. I love eating here. I like the atmosphere and everything about the place. This time however, I felt that I was rushed because I was not a "big" spender and they wanted the table for someone else.

We really enjoyed the drive in feel and the food was pretty good. Seemed like there could be a little more selections on the menu but everyone found something to like.

This was our first time to eat here and all I can say is thet we loved it. This place is really cool. We sat in a car and it really is like you are at a drive in. The food was great! This is now one of my favorite places to eat at Disney.

Have eaten here twice, both times for dinner. Had the pasta the first time and the burger the second time. Burger was a much better choice. Food could be better, but nothing beats eating your dinner in a drive in car! The dim lighting and "stars" make you feel relaxed. I will likely return but i'm going to try some other eateries before I go back again.

Cool atmosphere!Cons:

My family and I always enjoy the Sci Fi. I would give the restaurant a "10" for atmosphere, but only a "6" for food which is why I gave it an "8" rating. We love sitting in a classic car and watching 1950's trailers. I had a chesseburger which was fine and DS had a turkey sandwich that was okay. Our waitress was very nice and attentive. I would think families with children would love the restaurant because the atmosphere would keep the children occupied until their food arrived. Overall, we would eat here again.
Pros:
Great atmosphere, average foodCons:

I booked this restaurant for my grandniece and my trip. Since it was the two of us, I looked for places she had never been and that I thought was surprising, since you can not tell what is inside the building and it is so different then other food places I thought she would like it.
When we arrived, we were seated right away. Since there was the two of us, we were the hitchhikers at the back of our cars. My niece had a balloon and the wait staff put it at the front to the side of the screen so it was not in anyone's view of the movie screen. It upset her at first but she got it back after so be warned if you have little ones.
The server we had was wonderful. My niece wanted a milkshake and it was no problem on the dining plan so I did not have to pay extra even though I would have. The food was very good and plentiful, I could not eat it all.
My niece said this was the best place to eat! She loved it. Since she has never been to the drive in, the whole concept was new. Even the old movie clips where new to her and she loved them. I found it a great place to unwind from the park the dark cool vibe was wonderful after the park and we had the best conversation something that is hard to do with kids in the time of iPods and cell phones. It was a nice step back in time.

This is a restaurant you visit for the atmosphere and not the food. The food is just OK but sitting in the cars is neat. The service during our visit was awful. I finally raised my hand to get our waitress to come over and greet us to take our drink order. She could have turned our table over twice if she had just been more timely with order taking and bringing our check.
