T-Rex Cafe

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 recommend getting a reservation before or you will have to wait. Also, look into joining the Landry's Club!

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.

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 not hand crafted cocktails they were tasty and fit the theme of the restaurant. Service: Considering how busy these servers are we had great service. I had to flag our server down but she was managing a bunch of tables. Good service when we came. Ambiance: This is the reason you dine at this restaurant. Animatronic dinosaurs and prehistoric mammoths. There is a Jurassic storm that happens every 15 or so minutes. The fun theme makes the experience fun. We ran into probably 7 birthday songs when we were there which is fun for the kids. It is definitely touristy but you are usually a tourist if you are at Disney Springs.

This was one of the best restaurant experiences I’ve had. Food was very good, drinks were amazing and their presentation was like in no other place. The whole interior and the show that goes on every 5-10 minutes were just so great and we were so happy to be there. Our server Millie was very attentive and nice as well. I had the Megasaurus Burger and it was really big and nice, my girlfriend had the Grain Bowl and she liked it a lot too.

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.

T-Rex Cafe in Disney Springs is a fun and immersive experience. The atmosphere is over the top in the best way and instantly brings back memories. The food was good, the service was stellar, and the whole visit felt nostalgic, especially remembering coming here as a kid at the KC location. Since it’s located in Disney Springs, it gets very popular, especially during peak meal times, so reservations are strongly recommended. It’s a great spot if you’re looking for something entertaining and family friendly with solid food and great staff. Definitely worth the visit.

The cafe lived up to both my & my 16yo daughter's expectations! I'd even say T-rex exceeded them. Service was rather quick, very attentive, & they even invited us to explore the restaurant while we waited for our food. My kid LOVES dinosaurs & even though the animatronics were quite outdated, she enjoyed them & thought they were fabulous. The whole place was just enough, decor was thoughtfully placed, & overall made for a lovely, fun, atmospheric dining experience. (The fossil displays in the restroom were also a nice touch.) Highly recommend. 🦕🦖

We attended a birthday party for a child. The children's package included a complete meal and a Build-A-Bear! Very nice restaurant to celebrate and gather with family. Good food and margaritas. The animated Dinosaurs and the decorations were awesome. The service was very good. I did expect quicker service for a birthday reservation but it took awhile for the food to come out. The prices were high in my opinion for a regular burger and fries but I understand you're paying for the experience. I would visit again.

We made a reservation several weeks in advance to take my dinosaur lover here for his birthday. First of all, I made a reservation several weeks in advance, but a few days before our date, when I wanted to alter it, it was pretty much impossible as your reservation only reserves that time for that number of people, any alteration is essentially making a new reservation, and the more people in your party, the more difficult it is to get a reservation. Also, an added gratuity of 18% is automatically added to parties of 6 or more. This place is insanely busy, and pretty hectic. The front entrance is completely swamped with 3 lines, one for checking in, one for reservations and one for walk ins. It is practically impossible to step foot inside without waiting in one of these lines. I'm convinced this practice is in violation of fire codes. It really was incredibly hectic and stressful. I almost had an anxiety attack from the craziness. It also didn't help that it was raining and we were stuck in line, in the rain, with zero overhang or canopy. Once we got in and were seated, the place is amazing. The interior is so well done and incredible. We' were seated at a booth fortunately , with a wall of coral behind us and a fish tank in front. I got my son a dinosaur toy from the gift shop and he happily played with the dinosaur on the table and with the coral on the wall behind us, so this kept him happy and occupied, despite being a moody toddler. The food was much better than I had expected. I expected it to be fairly disappointing but the fish and chips I had were quite good, someone in our party order a margarita and did not like it. I tried it and while it tasted like a typical margarita, it was incredibly weak. I think that was due to it being served in a 12 or 14 oz beer glass, so there was appt more mixture to the alcohol. All in all, our experience was positive and for as excited as the place made my little boy, I gladly come back. However, I really, really don't like Disney springs and the congestion and mass consumerism there so my son's love of dinosaurs is the only thing that would bring me back there.

Will start by saying our server was excellent. Helpful, friendly and exactly what we want in a server. The food was absolutely awful. We ordered burgers and my sons burger off the kids meal was clearly a frozen burger and had a weird coloring. Don't blame him for not taking more than 2 bites. The apples literally looked like they had been gnawed on before. Gross. My husband and I both ordered burgers that tasted like they were cooked last week. The rolls were stale. $20 a burger was astronomical already- and awful food didn't help. 2 stars bc the ambiance was cute for my kiddo

This place is super fun, super loud and super crowded. The prices are outrageous. I understand that this place caters to the tourists that come from disney springs, but this plate of salmon was over $40.00 and I just have a very hard time accepting that price, especially when I paid $5.00 for a glass of coca cola and $15.00 for six cheese sticks that tasted like the $3.00 ones from walmart's frozen section. Service isn't the best because the place is super busy, but that's expected of a giant restaurant like this.

I feel like the food is a THREE but the service made this place a four. The hostess helped three of our reservations sit together it was a crowd of twenty! The kids got a table and the adults got a table. Our waiter got drinks out quickly and food as reasonable of a timing as possible. Every thirty minutes the restaraunt has a light "show" -room gets dark and lights flash and sounds happen. Dinosaurs move a little bit. Like I said. Food is mediocre and pricey. But our kids LOVED it. They also have a sandy rocky area that they can dig up and reveal dinosaur fossils.

Time for an update because it's been 8 years! We had reservations and we got sat right away. The restaurant itself is interesting and you would never get bored looking or walking around. Food is pricey but that's standard. I got the nachos and it was a very generous portion. It was my daughter's birthday and they sang to her and gave her a little dessert which was cute. I would definitely come back here again especially since it's family friendly.

We came here for lunch honestly not know what this place was. Well, if you have kids and they love dinosaurs, this is your stop. The restaurant alone is pretty massive with none other than the Dino theme. They have shoes every half hour or so, the structure moves and lights go along with it. But it a good little break during your meal for the little one. Some of the sections are dark so heads up. There's also a gift shop attached to the restaurant in the front. Menu wise, they do catered to everyone. Meats and veggies if you're looking for that. Also a good kid's selection as they do caters to loads of them. Location is great, right in the heart of Disney Springs. A nice fun family restaurant that offers everything for everyone.

Out of all the times I been in disney springs, I never tried this restaurant. Definitely a good place for families, especially the little kids to look at the dinosaurs. It is a bit noisy due to the dinosaurs making noises and a pretend meteor hitting. We went for my grandma's birthday and it was pretty good! Our waitress was nice and helpful! I ordered the Buffalo chicken dip and that was surprisingly good. A bit salty but nothing crazy! Then I ordered the triassic trio that came with shrimp skewers, crab and shrimp gratin, steak, green beans and rice. This dish was so delicious. I do feel like the gratin would be good with bread!! My family enjoyed their meal as well. Their portions were big and definitely took food home! We appreciate our server getting a manager to talk with my grandma about her cocoa allergy. Just to make sure that the vanilla cupcake would be fine for her to get and no cross contamination. I do recommend this place if you are in the area. Yet, make reservations cause it gets packed easily!

My friend and I came here after completing the Dopey Challenge during the Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend. We didn't have a reservation, but we were able to get a couple of seats at the bar without having to wait. I ordered their New York Strip. It came with mashed potatoes and green beans as the seasonal vegetables. It was a decent steak. Not bad. As to be expected, the prices were on the higher side, but still pretty reasonable. The ambiance was definitely geared towards kids. While we were there, there must have been at least 10 birthdays. All of the employees would clap really loud as they paraded around the restaurant over to the birthday table. That got really annoying after about the 3rd one.

I been walking by this place for over 16 years and I finally decided to try it out. My little one loves Dinosaurs so I figured why not! This restaurant is located in Disney Springs and the Lime ‍ parking deck would be the closest to park at. The front of the restaurant was amazing as it had a T-Rex fossil outside and huge Brontosaurus fossil outside as well. This place is really for kids. If you look to your right, there is a dinosaur toy store and there is also a place for kids/toddlers to dig in a fossil uncovering sand pit. There is so many dinosaurs inside the restaurant with some of them moving. There is also a meteor shower every 20 minutes which the lighting inside gets darker and you see asteroids fkying around. I highly recommend you make reservations from the Disney app. The front was super busy with a super long line. You can make reservations or join an online wait list but you only can do it if your close by to the restaurant. There is stroller parking outside to the left of the restaurant. I would highly recommend not leaving any valuables inside the stroller as nobody is watching it. The food is definitely on the pricey side but I get it because it's more so of the overall dining experience. I ordered the Colosso Beef Nachos appetizer which included: Peppers, onions, black bean chili, Monterey Jack cheese, cheddar cheese, Chili Con Queso, green onions, sour cream, pico de gallo, and salsa. The portion was huge. I was very happy with the flavor and taste of it. Only thing missing was some jalapenos. It definitely was worth the $22. As far as the entree, I went big with the New York Strip Steak Char-grilled, topped with steak butter, red skinned mashed potatoes, and seasonal vegetables. I will say it was pretty good. I ordered it "medium." The flavor was good and steak wasn't dry and just right. The mashed potatoes and green beans was very tasty. My better half had the Creole Chicken & Shrimp Ravioli (Spicy) Shrimp, sautéed chicken, bell peppers, onions, tomatoes, andouille sausage, hot & spicy Cajun sauce, and four cheese ravioli. I tried some and was very pleased with the Cajun flavor a long with the garlic bread. It was awesome. For drinks, I went with the Strawberry Lenonade which came with awesome led glowing cups that we got to bring home with us. It had a cool projector shining a T Rex cafe logo. Dinner was amazing and I had so much food leftover that I brought home enough leftovers for breakfast tomorrow at the hotel! I highly recommend this place if you like dinosaurs or have little ones that love dinosaurs. Just make sure you got some deep pockets. I can't wait to come back again. I will definitely make some reservations a few days out this time.

What an experience! This restaurant offered an amazing experience with prehistoric atmospheres by the stone ages! It has dinosaurs that moved and a meteor shower every ten minutes. They also had different rooms with different experiences which was cool! The food was pretty good considering the expectations of it being for an experience. They also have a build a dino experience which was really cool!

I'm sure I'm going to echo a lot of what others have said about T-rex in my review. T-rex is a sister restaurant to Rainforest cafe, but what T-rex has that Rainforest doesn't is, well beyond that it's dinosaur themed; that this is the only location in the US if not anywhere else. The food is reasonable for what I would want out of a chain restaurant that focuses on theming. I'm sure grown ups would find other restaurants that they would prefer nearby, but its decent for going with your kids or a dinosaur fan. Service was outstanding during the two times we have been here, with 5 years in between. Pro tip; you can make a reservation in the Disney world app; or as well there are perks with being a part of the Landry's club. Landy's owns a number of chain restaurants that pop up at a lot of touristy areas like Rainforest, Bubba Gump, etc. So earn some points, use some birthday rewards, etc.

Tuscan chicken. The actual plate was hot but unfortunately the food was cold. Server/ bar tender was apologetic and when we got another plate the food was just warm. Both plates had a couple burnt potatoes. Tomato salad it came with had too much garlic. Seasonal vegetables were disappointing. It was just green beans. The photos were very misleading showing a variety of vegetables. Dino rice is a rice pilaf. Good, decent portion. Excellent atmosphere. Great bartender.

Giving it 4 stars only because our server went above and beyond for us. Excellent customer service! I'm talking about this gentleman loves what he does so he made it a great experience! The food was okay. I wouldn't be back just for the food, maybe just for the experience. I really don't like dining in dark places, I like to see what I am eating.. so I didn't fully enjoy my meal. Only came here because our kids wanted to give it a try. It's a big place and did notice that their restrooms were clean regardless. Which is a plus! We walked around Disney Springs after our dinner and passed by about an hour later and the line was to get in was HUGE!! I'm talking about maybe over 20-30 ppl waiting around diner time 5-6pm ish. In my experience, I think this was a one time experience, don't think I'll be back again.

We just happened to be by the entrance at 11am when they opened so we were able to easily get seated but most people seemed to have reservations. The restaurant was huge! We wandered around because each area was unique. There's even a large aquarium by the bar. The animatronics are amazing for the kids (my 2 year old was fascinated by the dinos- same with the table of grown men behind us lol) The food was expensive. Like it surprised me that some entrees, at a restaurant called T-Rex, were $40+ lol The servings were large, which also surprised me! The food was pretty good too. It did take longer than I expected to get our food, so don't expect this to get out quickly. (I'm thinking this was more on our server because all of our plates were extremely hot, like they'd been under the warmer for quite some time.) Kids meal options were also great. SO if you have a family member that loves dinosaurs, this place is awesome. If they're just mildly interested - probably too expensive.

Atmosphere/Decor is fun especially for little kids. Otherwise it's just an overpriced "chain restaurant" in terms of food quality. Was especially put off by the kids "burgers". Pretty clearly a frozen beef patty that appeared/tasted a step below even fast food burgers. The adult burger was fine, but would like to see some better quality for the kids. It was fun, mostly just because of the decorations... but would probably not return.

The food is garbage. big garbage. Bigger than all the fancy props in the joint. Nothing in the menu says mmmmmm so good. Matter of fact don't ever eat from t-Rex you better going to Mexican restaurant

Cute spot for a family dinner! The whole T-Rex, nature design was stunning and they did a great job crafting the statues for the animals. We sat in the underwater section, with sea creatures on the walls and the blue wavy sky. I also know there's also a forest section with dark lighting but I'm glad we sat here. They also do meteor showers a few times each hour, which makes a big noise and has lights changing throughout the restaurant. All in all, the ambiance is what makes eating here worth it. We ordered the chickpea crusted salmon, megasaurus burger, branzino, and the seafood shrimp platter. Everything tasted great!! I was served a big piece of salmon that was not dry, crunchy, and came with tomatoes, spinach, and lots of orzo. It was very good and I ate the whole thing! The megasaurus burger was huge and came with a bed of fries, but a pretty average burger I heard. The branzino was ginormous (and with a big price tag as well), but seasoned very well and pretty soft. Lastly, the shrimp trio came with fried coconut shrimp, grilled shrimp on a skewer, and buttery garlic shrimp with a side of fried veggie rice. All delicious. Eating in a jungle-like restaurant with live fish in aquariums and fantastic design and sound is an experience that makes this place special. Will recommend if the wait times are short and you're in Disney Springs!

My family and I have always wanted to eat at T-Rex because of how much our daughters love Rainforest Cafe. But between you and I, I think this restaurant is better by a long shot. We came in for my daughter's sweet 16 and the staff taking care of us couldn't have been nicer and more attentive than they were. The restaurant itself is detailed and the dinosaurs just make you feel a certain way, almost child like. The food was delicious in my opinion. I decided to get the meatloaf with mashed potatoes which was exactly what I wanted! My wife got the BBQ ribs which were definitely taken back to the room at the resort to finish off after a day at the park. I cannot thank the staff for giving helping us out and giving my daughter a sweet 16 she deserves. Can't wait to come back to give my other daughter her sweet 16 in a few years!

Such a cool and fun place for families! My daughter loves dinosaurs and this was such a fun place to watch her smiles unfold from eating to playing and shopping ! The food was really good and seasoned well. We all ordered a different entree and the kids as well. There were no left overs ! Birthday cake and ice cream weee so so good!!! Brownie with cookie middle and ice cream for the whole table I love that there was also a covered play area for the kids while we waited to be seated and also after dinner. We are definitely coming back again and again !

Lauren H was an amazing server! We arrived at just the right time, did not have to wait at all. We shared the carnivore delight with chicken minus the fried goat cheese to ensure that it was gluten-free. The chef came out to meet, and talk about options. The salad was large enough for two people to share for lunch - and both leave extremely happy. Portions of chicken, fresh berries, crisp, lettuce, and very yummy apple cider vinaigrette were enough to make us happy! Lauren insured that my glass of tea remained full! The inside is decorated in dinosaur motif. It is extremely loud. It also has flashing lights, I guess as if you were in a rainforest with dinosaurs. We knew what we were in for, so no complaints here. However, if you're looking for a quiet spot to have a conversation this is not it. Prices are insanely high, just as you would expect anywhere near a theme park. However, sharing that very generous salad and a drink cost roughly $36 total! Not bad for two people to share a delicious lunch.

First time guest and we first stopped at the bar for a drink before our reservation. The bar is cute and our bartender was super friendly. My glass of Sauvignon Blanc was a decent pour and good. I don't think I have ever seen so many kids in a restaurant in my life. Once the "dinosaur show" started, I totally understand the kids interest. Very cute concept and a great idea for kids. The menu has a variety of items, all interesting. I settled on the ribs which came with fries and coleslaw. Our food arrived quickly and was nice and hot. The ribs were super tender and tasty. I liked the coleslaw, which surprised me as I'm not usually a fan. The fries were the bottom of the bag, so just little bits and pieces. Service was good our entire visit.

I really enjoyed the food with the ambience the food a little better than rainforest cafe if you want to compare . Yes I would come back here the waiters are friendly and attentive.

Ambiance is the only thing to come here for in my opinion. It's very similar to the rainforest Cafe, but Dino's, lower quality in food. First, we checked in the front for our reservation at 1:25 for our 1:45 reservation. 1:55 goes by, and I haven't received a text. I went on the WDW app, and checked in there.. then I got the check in text. I went to the other check in desk inside of the restaurant, and they said we never checked in until I did it online. We didn't get seated until about 2:15. We got seated, and ordered drinks right away. 5 waters, 1 glass of wine, and 1 frozen cocktail. Took about 10 minutes or so. We ordered our food: 2 meatball appetizers, 1 side of mashed potato's, 1 salad, 1 Chicken sandwich, and 1 meatball entree. We asked for onion rings, ranch, and jalapeños- which they forgot all three, and forgot to mention that they actually don't have onion rings. (To be fair, it or super loud in the restaurant so she heard onion strings.) The salad was eh, 5/10. Meatloaf was 7.5/10. Meatballs were 5/10. The chicken sandwich was honestly 5/10. It was cold as well as my fries. Tasted like it was old and sitting out for an hour 1/10. The potato side was eh. Cold and bland. The service was slow for all of it as well sadly, server seemed very disconnected. But friendly-ish vibes. Prices aren't too too bad relatively speaking But I probably wouldn't go back- maybe just to walk around.

Atmosphere - Very Good! The obvious theme is dinosaurs and the restaurant lives up to the hype. The place is loud, but fun. The appeal is to families with little children. Service - Very Good. Our server was attentive and helpful. Food - Very Good. I had the lemon chicken and sweet sausage with rigatoni in a cream sauce. The sauce was delicious and the chicken tender. The sausage was did have a bit of a bite to it. Overall Value - Very Good. The portion size was generous and the entree delicious. All for a reasonable price. Especially given the location.

Our server, Jeremy, was excellent! He recommended the buffalo chicken dip: ON POINT! He was attentive and friendly! It was our first time there, and won't be our last! We had the Triassic Trio: I wish I had taken pictures of the food! The ambiance, service, and food were all amazing!

I must say I'm super disappointed I thought this place was gonna be awesome I think maybe the worst restaurant I've ever been to the food tasted like microwave n wasn't even hot our drinks stayed empty the waiter seemed frustrated my kids Mac n cheese had no taste I mean 0 I was amazed not worth the money the hype of this place is deff not in the food or service green beans was like rubber n chicken was cold when arrived for this big of a restaurant I can't tell you how upset n disappointment I left in

We recently stopped at T-Rex in Disney Springs, during our recent vacation. We have a Landry's club membership so my wife saved her birthday reward for us to get to stop here for our kiddos meal pick. T-Rex is pretty much the same concept as rain forest cafe; but dinosaurs! This is the only Dino themed one they have; so if you're picking between the two for a themed restaurant ... I would go with this one. Especially if you go anywhere that has a rainforest cafe closer to home. We had excellent service. Food wasn't stand out; but it wasn't bad either ...standard fair for what you would would get at a chain restaurant. So I would suggest it if you have a Dinosaur fan, and are hitting the more kid friendly spots on a springs day. Otherwise, hit up another one of the restaurants in the springs.

Had reservation. Was seated in advance of our time. Great service. The ambiance was great for the kids. The servers were great. The huge let down was the actual food. Had to send the chips back because they were very stale. The chicken was extremely tough. Everything else was okay, but not great. You are paying for the atmosphere.

Our recent visit was absolutely 5 stars. When a friend invited us for dinner, we were excited to return for a second visit since we had a few ups and downs on our first experience. I want to start off saying the service was absolutely a knock out. Hanoum is an absolute gem. She knew all the ins and outs of the menu and was willing to take pics for us and generally went above and beyond for us. I ordered the app sampler, the same thing I ordered my first visit, and it's just a great variety of items. I had also ordered a watermelon cocktail, though I forget the name, it was wonderful. We will continue to look forward to our next visit here.

So, definitely a kids' restaurant but the ambience of this place is really cool. They decked it out to the max and you feel like you've stepped back in time a few millennia as you dine with dinosaurs that roar and move. Most kids will love it, but more sensitive and younger kids might get scared by the intermittent "storms" and roars. During peak season, make sure you get a reservation or you're not getting in. My husband tried to book our res over a month ago, and within seconds it sold out. We still got lucky with a 5pm Friday reservation but even with a reservation there was a 10-15 minute wait time as staff processed the sheer scope of people wanting to experience T Rex. Once we were seated, our server Shanice greeted us a with a smile and took our drink (and kid meal) orders which came quickly. My only major critique was our meals took over 45 minutes to arrive, but given the sheer scope of people dining inside, we could hardly be upset. The kids tucked into their meals and enjoyed every bite - standard kid friendly fare (Mac n cheese, pizza etc). I did like they offered fruit and vegetable sides - though I acquiesced to apple sauce since it's the last night of vacation. When it did arrive our food was good. My husband likes the coconut shrimp. My in laws liked their salads. I was very pleased with the vegan grain bowl and noticed they offered two other veggie/plant based burgers and a nice salad option for non meat eaters like myself. The price point was about what you would expect being so close to Disney, BUT unlike some of the other restaurants we dined in at Disney Springs, we were satisfied: the portion sizes were good, the food was hot and tasty, the ambience fun and family friendly, and the service was rendered with a smile.

Food was great. My Megasaurus burger came with three patties. Cool meteor show every 20 minutes. Lots of Dino's to take pics of. Collectable cups for the kids were a blast. Great atmosphere. Family friendly. Go check out the ice caves

I booked reservations for lunch here because I heard it was always packed. I also read the food wasn't the greatest, so I didn't have high expectations, but actually came out of the restaurant really enjoying the food! Came on a Wednesday afternoon at 1pm and it was not that busy. We left our stroller outside and walked in with the kids. Every 15 minutes they would have a 'show' with the dinosaurs moving and the ceiling lit up like there are asteroids coming down. It was pretty cool, my kids didn't seem to want to walk around to look at the other dinosaurs which is okay. We ordered a kids meal, I order the trio with the shrimp, steak, creamy sauce with scallops and shrimps which was amazing! I dipped everything in that sauce. Raptor rice. My hubby got the ribs and half roast chicken (Dino buffet?) it was a lot of food and the ribs were good, the chicken was juicy. To top it off, our server was amazing. She was on top of things, getting our water filled constantly. She made our meal pleasant and we tipped her more because her service was that good. Would come back here again if we come back.

I brought my daughter here to celebrate her 5th birthday over the weekend, and unfortunately, I left feeling quite disappointed. I was aware beforehand that the food might be average and priced on the higher side, but I had anticipated that the elaborate ambiance would make up for it. However, that's where my disappointment set in. The restaurant promised a thrilling experience with a simulated thunderstorm, complete with dimmed lights, animal noises, and moving dinosaurs every 15-20 minutes. Unfortunately, none of these elements lived up to our expectations. I even went as far as to walk around and check if the dinosaurs were working properly, but to my dismay, they weren't. Having spent $160 on the meal (including tip) for a steak dinner, an old-fashioned cocktail, a flatbread appetizer, a side Caesar salad, 2 soft drinks, and a kid's meal, the overall experience just didn't feel worth it. I had hoped for the joy of witnessing the dinosaurs in action, but it was a letdown.

Stunning theme restaurant with three distinct areas: deep ocean, glacier, and dinosaur forest. We sat in the latter, and within a few minutes, the lights dimmed, thunder roared, and the robot dinosaurs began to move. Whether you're a child, a teenager, or an adult, you'll be amazed. While the food is standard Disney American fare, the portions are quite large, compensating for the lack of creativity in the menu. Our server was super friendly and polite, ensuring we felt welcomed in the magical Disney world.

This is one fantastic, exciting place. The Dinosaur, Underwater and Glacier themes are mesmerizing and fun. We have eaten here the last three years in a row on vacation from Michigan. Well worth the visit. Great food and our waitress (ILI) was so friendly and always visited our table. This place deserves a 10 star rating!!

Omg where to start from. This place is Fire. Look at the beautiful ambiance, a huge portion of delicious food and top-notch service. This is our first time in this location, and we loved it, especially our 5 year old Dino fan.

Went with my kids here since I heard kids normally really liked the atmosphere here-- and they are right!!! Cool Trex and giant octopus as well as cute aquarium-- it's definitely a destination restaurant for us. Food is just ordinary Americanized food but the service is great!!! Will come back again for the experience but not so much for the food.

We had a really good experience here. Our food was really good and the service was even better. Our waitress Jessica was one of the best we have had in a while. My 2.5 year old loved the dinosaur theme. My shrimp Caesar salad was really good and my husbands salmon was excellent. We will definitely come back next time we are in Orlando.

Awesome to say the least , my grandson celebrated his 4th bday here to see the excitement on his face was priceless, it is very loud and a little to dark but the animatronic dinosaurs and colored lights the kids absolutely loved, I got the pot roast pie it was out of this world, GOOD! Don't leave without a bubble Dino wand, the are spectacular

The T-Rex Cafe is a blast! The dinosaur-themed atmosphere is super fun, with animatronic dinos and interactive displays that keep everyone entertained. The food is tasty, and the kids absolutely loved it.

Super cute Cafe in the heart of Downtown Disney! The drinks and food were yummy. Every twenty minutes the entire restaurant gets dark and there's like a thunder sound that plays... the waiter was very nice and the food came out super fast. Definitely recommend this restaurant.

T-Rex Cafe is just like Rainforest Cafe! You dine here and are immersed into this Jurassic World with dinosaurs and extinct animals. It's so fun! There's lots of sounds and lights. This is not the place to have a nice, quiet, intimate conversation lol It is loud and there's a lot of stimulation. This place is like every adhd kids dream lol There's so much to pay attention to and multiple things to hold your attention. The food is just okay. You are paying for the atmosphere and overall vibe. The food is just there- it's nothing special. I ordered the coconut shrimp and it was just alright. The mozzarella sticks were decent though in ranch. Overall, fun experience! :)

The T-Rex Restaurant in Orlando is an absolute must-visit if you're looking for a fun, one-of-a-kind dining experience! While the food leaves a lot to be desired--it's a bit bland and overpriced--the atmosphere is what truly makes this place special. The dinosaur-themed décor is incredibly immersive, with life-sized animatronic dinosaurs and even "thunderstorms" that add a thrilling touch to your meal. It's an exciting place for kids and adults alike, offering a playful and unique environment that you won't find anywhere else. If you're in the area and want a memorable experience, T-Rex Restaurant is worth checking out, even if it's just for the novelty.

This restaurant was absolutely amazing, a super good place to take your kids, some thing to look at and see every direction the whole time you're there. Generally very busy, drinks were average, food was average to slightly above average, but come on you're really there for the awesome atmosphere!

This was my second visit to this restaurant. My first was in 2020 and my second visit being this past weekend. This time around we reserved it about a month ahead of time and we snagged a reservation at 9:45pm on Saturday night. Checking in was easy and we were told to head on inside to check in with the hostess. Once here, she grabbed menus and walked us to our table. The server then came and she was very friendly and took care of us right away. Our orders consisted of: One meatloaf with vegetables and mashed potatoes One trio entrée that came with: Steak, Scallops, and Shrimp (mashed potatoes and vegetables) Two chicken pesto sandwiches with fries There was 4 of us dining together and we all got one alcoholic drink. The food didn't take too long and we began to eat. Everything tasted good. My trio entrée was delicious and very filling. I had so much food left over. The meatloaf was another hit and it was huge!! It looked like a big dinosaur egg, lol. The chicken pesto sandwiches were also a hit. The chicken was cooked perfectly and it was pretty big and crispy! Service was great and our server was friendly the entire time. Every so often an "asteroid" hits the dining room and the walls / celling go HAM. Its pretty cool. The gift shop is interesting and they even have a "build your own dino" which I thought was cute. Super fun, great food, and such a unique experience!

You really won't get in without an advanced reservation, of course, since it's Disney. But this is a super fun and surprisingly fairly tasty option in Disney Springs. Honestly, it's my first pick for restaurant choices in D.S., and even though it's similar to a Rainforest cafe I think the food AND the animatronics are way, way better.

We went in July. First time at this restaurant. The food is delicious. The restaurant is pretty cool. They have a show that goes on maybe every 10 to 15 minutes. Staff is friendly.

Ambience is 105% - - picture this: At the entrance there is a mobile T Rex, two stories tall. He regularly bows his head down, opens his massive jaws and bares his huge teeth to welcome the terrified five year olds. While my wife and I waited to be summoned to our table, a young mother, her back to the entrance, knelt before her 5-yr-old daughter to convince her that this would all be great fun. Unseen by Mom, her seven year old son had scooped up his Little Brother and was bringing this offering to the waiting jaws of the T Rex. Little Brother, flailing arms and legs, screamed for his mother, but his cries were lost amid the roars of other carnivores inside the cavern. Other children inched along the wall past T Rex, offering prayers to the gods that it would be Little Brother who would sate T Rex's appetite and not them. It was clearly thumbs down by the crowd for Little Brother.

Ratings is specific to service and for quality. Service was ok and could be better. We noticed another table who had a server who was really into the theme of the place and was very active with the kids. We didn't quite get that experience with our server and barely saw her during our dining. Food was ok for the price but it's what's expected. Would come back more for the atmosphere of the inside and all the amazing decor for Dinosaur lovers!
