16 Best & Worst Dining Choices for Large Groups at Disney World

4 – WORST – Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater @ Hollywood Studios

Perhaps the most unique of the full service dining locations found in Disney World’s Hollywood Studios is the Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant. The location brings guests into a wonderful dining room which is themed to feel like a drive-in theater. Guests are seated in classic cars where they can then look up at the stars and watch sci-fi clips and commercials on the big screen. The experience is definitely one of the most unique in Walt Disney World and is very popular with guests making it necessary to book reservations in advance. Guests who dine at the Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater Restaurant for lunch and dinner can enjoy delicious menu options like Grilled Chicken BLT Sandwich, House-Smoked St. Louis-Style Pork Ribs, Southwest Vegetarian Burger, Fame-Broiled New York Strip Steak, Build-Your-Own Angus Burger, Vegetarian Shepard’s Pie, Grilled Marinated Salmon Salad, and Smoked Turkey Sandwich. With a totally unique atmosphere and delicious food, guests should definitely enjoy dining at the Sci-Fi Dine-In Restaurant in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. However, the restaurant poses a challenge for large groups. We have seen groups make it work as they pile into Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater. Keep in mind that this isn’t a great place for a group to carry on a conversation or to be seated together. Typically seated in the back, groups can plan to be in different “cars” and spread out as needed to dine.
