Who doesn't love Churros, Be Our Guest, or the EPCOT Food and Wine Festival?

50s prime time, for sure. The sci-fi dine in to me felt weird, because everybody’s facing the same direction and you can’t really have dinner time conversation comfortably. Neat concept, just doesn’t work for me. Prime time is so fun though.

I usually prefer Sci-Fi. 50s Primetime is right behind it, though. They're both great but I like restaurants that have that outside inside environment.

I love Prime Time. The CMs make it such a fun experience and the food is great. I really like the stuffed pork chop. The PB&J milkshake is amazing!

We enjoy both but if I had to pick one it would be SciFi. First the atmosphere is truly one of a kind but we also really enjoy their food. Its nothing fancy but I love a great burger and their onion rings and fried pickles are delicious. 50's is good too and the antics a lot of fun but I find their food heavier and best only on cooler park days.

I don't think you can go wrong with either-just really what kind of chow do you want. To me that's the biggest difference

I agree with most post that you can not go wrong with both. Prim Time for me edges out Sci-Fi a bit.

We did both, but prefer 50's diner. We enjoyed the sarcastic humor from our waitress. It was fun!

Definitely Prime Time for me. Sampler plate to try the fried chicken, meatloaf and pot roast! I can never make up my mind which I like more so I have to keep trying :D

Both of them are very unique, each with a different 'flavor'. I love the atmosphere in both, they totally completely immerse you in their themes extravagantly. but when it comes down to it, I prefer the food at 50's prime time better. I love the vintage appeal, including the TVs broadcasting old 50s shows. Plus they're roast beef is really good!

I love PrimeTime's food and Sci-Fis atmosphere better. I don't find SciFi to be anything special food wise.

50's is our first day tradition. We have to get the chocolate shake and onion rings with that amazing horseradish dipping sauce.

Sci-Fi Dine In Theater. We went on my second time to Disney as a young kid, our family loved it, and I have made sure that we hit up that restaurant every time were are there. 50s Prime Time is okay, but the food is rather boring (in my opinion--I know that's not everyone's opinion, and obviously no judgement there), not that the food is over-the-top amazing at Sci-Fi, but I'm huge sci-fi nerd, and grew up going to drive-in theaters, and I have a special soft spot for Sci-Fi Dine In as a result. I just wasn't all that impressed with 50s Prime Time in my experience.
