Wow so cool haha :wave:
Pot roast comes with mashed potatoes, carrots and celery. Makes me hungry just thinking about it!
Love it here, our "Aunt Melody" was hilarious last month. Kept telling us stories about when we were little :lol: My friend got in trouble for having his elbows on the table and she made him hold a sugar packet against the wall with his head while he said "I will not put my elbows on the table" three times. She signed the sugar packet for him to keep.
And here she is feeding him his veggies
It's not for everyone but it's one of the highlights of DHS for me.
Haha :ROFLOL: so brilliant :ROFLOL:
I cannot wait to go here, im DEF doin this place :sohappy:

I'm not sure if they cook the carrots/celery with the pot roast but you could probably ask for no veggies on it at all if they do.
I love carroys, but hate celery :hurl:

Tough, I cooked it for you, now you eat it. Or else you can just go to bed hungry.
Let's take the themeing as far as we can folks. In fact, you should not even get to order off the menu. You get what I serve you. If you don't like it, then you don't eat.

50's Prime never dissapoints. The food is great, atmosphere is great, and it is a great place to sit down and relax after walking around for several hours. The "themeing" really depends on which server you get. We have had some who don't really do anything and others who give you a really hard time. We have started saying it is our first time every time we go, they put on a better show if you do. Regardless, it is a great place to eat. Good home style food.

This is a must do for us every trip, mainly because I love it, everyone else just humors me. I love the theming, the 50's era just seems so neat. The wait staff is very funny, we always enjoy ourselves with them. I love plain comfort food, I usually get the meatloaf and it's always been good. And I really love the smores. They are quite delicious. Add a drink from dad's liquor cabinet and you've got a great time.

The quality of your waiter/waitress makes a big impact no matter what restaurant you go to, but that's even more important at this one. Our first - and only - trip to Prime Time was last year and we got a very no-personality of a waiter. My travel buddy even put her elbows on the table deliberately to try and get a rise out him, but nothing. Very ho-hum.

Nah, no anger.
In fact, what I like best about the Prime Time is the way they act towards you. I had people from other tables in my section involved. We were writing "notes" about the waitress and telling her the other table wrote them. We would throw things like napkins behind her back and then get caught. She told me she wanted a clean plate, so after I ate, I took some napkins and water and put a shine on it. It was a lot of fun.
Other times, not so much fun. It all depends on your wait person and the people around you.
However, a 'fun' atmosphere cannot make up for food that is mediocre at best. In the past, if you were in the mood for fun, then you went. If not, you went somewhere else. But now with 180 day bookings, I have no idea if I am going to be in the mood for getting yelled at, or if maybe I just had a long day in a hot park, with long lines, and now I want to sit and relax.
Thats pretty much why the Prime Time gets a pass from me.

We ate here during our trip in Nov. 2009. I have to say i have mixed reviews about 50's Prime Time.
The food was good but the service was aweful. Our waitress did not even interact with us, when we arrived to be seated she saw my BDay button and said Hppy Bday. I said thank you, went through the process of placing our order. Our order arrived by someone else, at some point we needed drink refills we still had not seen our waitress, we stopped the waitress to the table next to us and asked her if she could find our waitress to get refills, this waitress ended up getting our drinks and some point our waitress did show to ask if we wanted dessert, my husband did, I & my daughter passed and then she brought the check. We were on the DDP and we left her a $20.00 cash tip for a 90.00 ( we usually round up on tips) bill all of a sudden she got very friendly with us and said oh I forgot its your bday lets have everyone sing.
The following day we had the express check out and I noticed a 27.00 gratutity charge on the bill from 50's I went to the front desk and spoke with management and all they were willing to do was credit me back $10.00. So needless to say that was a $30.00 tip, was very disappointed to see that some of the places in Disney try to get away w/ more than %18 gratuity.

Give them another shot, dave. You're missing out on a good desert. Call them by some creative French name if that helps.
Hate is a strong word for a poor, innocent vegetable. How can anyone not like celery. Celery is your friend. It takes more calories to chew it than it has.
And how do you ever celebrate Thanksgiving Day in Ireland without celery and Philadelphia cream cheese?
:lol:

I have had them twice. Thats enough shots for me
Really, its just a mass of sugar and gelatin on top of store bought graham crackers with chocolate 'flavored' syrup over it.
I would put it on the menu as
désordre sucré méchant
MMMmmmmmmm, good eatin'

I never order the s'mores. I can make them at home with no effort and a fraction of the price.
My wife loves ordering them. Get them every time. And she can never eat them all, so I always wind up eating s'mores anyway. I like them, but I can't justify the price.
The same is true of the Dad's sundae. If I want to, I can make it at home. But that's true of any sundae. Heck, it's true of most desserts at sit-down restaurants. So, I can rationalize that one a little better.
