We went to T-Rex Cafe on our recent vacation and it did not disappoint! When dining, you will either be seated in the dinosaur section or the ocean section. There are fish tanks in the restraunt to view and animatronics everywhere! Every 15 or so minutes, there is a meteor shower where the restraunt really comes to life. It is very cool, but can also be loud or overstimulating for some. The food was pretty good too! We ordered the cheese sticks to begin. They were super fresh and had great cheese pulls. The creole chicken and shrimp ravioli was very good and had a slight kick to it. The colosso beef nachos were a huge portion and definitely can be split between two or more people. Our waitress Oskarely checked in on us regularly and provided us with everything we needed. I would highly
We had a wonderful experience at the restaurant. Our server Sean was great and very attentive , he made sure to check on us with food and if we needed anything during our dinner. It’s a theme restaurant so there was lot of noise and the dinosaurs along with other fishes were a great experience for the kids and adults. We made reservation online so definitely recommend doing so as there is a huge wait for walk in. Kids enjoyed Jurassic chicken tidbits and Rocky’s pasta. We had the sampler for appetizer and burger. Food portion is great and enough to share. Kids portion would be good for one kid. Overall great experience at the T -Rex Cafe.
Seeing all the other good reviews, we decided to give this a try. I would say this is a place to try if you have kids just for the atmosphere. Your kids will love it here with all the dinosaurs theme item along with a store right at the entrance. As for the food, it's pretty bad. We ordered the sampler for appetizers and seafood trinity for entry to share as this was lunch. Got the dino nuggets for the kid. The sampler was decent in size but let me tell you, nothing is really good on there except for the meatballs. Everything else were pretty cold. Not want but cold. Chips were and the bread was chewy. The seafood trinity was slightly better as they were at least all warm. Crab and shrimp gratin was the best thing by far cos it was actually hot. Price was pretty crazy as well, one large ap
The Baseline: For a sit down semi-casual restaurant is the quality of the food, existence of any unique offerings, quality of the service, and value of the overall dining experience. Food: The food is pretty decent/good and overall is not amazing but you are really coming here for experience over food. We got the nachos, Prehistoric Pasta, and the Brontosaurus burger. The nachos were big and would service a group well but are comparable to bar/casual restaurant nachos. The pasta is the same that it is comparable to what you would get at a casual restaurant but the portion size was a good size. The burger was better than average and was a double patty. The fries that came with the burger were “bag fries” but were well cooked. The drinks were really nice though even though they were
This was a really fun experience. Reservations are a must! No matter where you’re seated, you’ll have a great view as the entire restaurant is full of life-sized dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals. The meteor shower is really cool and happens every 20 minutes or so. There’s a build-a-Dino workshop at the entrance of the restaurant, and a fossil dig outside.
