Dining at USF

[Coach81]

Ok.. I know about:

1. Margaritaville
2. Bubba Gump Shrimp
3. Mythos (never tried it.. always thought it was too expensive for us)
4. Nascar
5. NBA City
6. Hard Rock Cafe

Are there any other really good places to eat that I'm missing??? My oldest wants to go check out Bob Marley's.. can you even eat there??

Other suggestions for eating please... thanks in advance..

Emeril's Tchoup Chop, at Royal Pacific, is the best restaurant on property. At USF, I like Lombard's Landing. CityWalk also has Pat O'Briens, Pastamore & Latin Quarter. And yes, Marley's is a restaurant.

I second the vote for Tchoup Chop, excellent choice.

We also like Bice and Mama Della's at Portofino.

The food at Bob Marley's is not really all that authentic but it's good for what it is.

The Kitchen in the HRH, very under rated. The Palm is nice if a little pricey.

We've eaten at Bob Marley's. The hubby liked it but the kids and I left unimpressed. Then again, the kids and I don't much care for spice.

Didn't like The Palm at all, IMO I thought it was very expensive, I had chicken parmasen, very dull. Atmosphere too stuffy for me plus I didn't like painted faces on the walls.

Its no more expensive than the California Grill which is probably the level Id compare it with. I cant say I found it stuffy, and Im a yob :animwink:

Islands at Royal Pacific is excellent for breakfast.

Louie's Italian Restaurant has some great pizza. It's located in the NY section of Universal Studios.

Just avoid fast food burgers. They're always cold at the theme parks. Fries are good though.

and proud of it I bet! :lol: Never eaten at CG so can't compare, I didn't like the vibe, what can I say! The food was not worth the money. I like places like the Hard Rock cafe where I can blend in with the crowd, with a bit of noise around me, maybe we were there on a quiet night! On our next trip we will be trying The Kitchen instead, sounds like more my thing! :slurp:

The only time Ive seen the Kitchen truly busy was Thanks Giving night. I love the breakfasts, but you could argue you get similar fayre at the Ponderossa for $10 less. But theres fewer obnoxious British brats running wild in the Kitchen.

I'm no food snob so Ponderossa style is good for me, the lack of obnoxious British brats has definiately made me decide to dine at the Kitchen! Thanks!

Thanks for the suggestions.. I've seen the menu for Bob Marley's.. as bad as my oldest wants to visit it.. he is a bit of a picky eater.. I'm not sure he will find anything to eat there..

Also good to know that the kitchen is solid.. we'll be at the HRH..thanks for Emerald's and the rest.. taking notes...
