Hi Buzz --

Yes, it is being built at DTD, and here is a link to construction pics:
T-REX Restaurant Downtown Disney

I have heard it is going to be similar to Rainforest Cafe, but with dinosaur theming.

It is in Downtown Disney next to the McDonald's. It is a sister restaurant concept to Rainforest Cafe. Here is a link to its website.

It's not far along, so I would guess it won;t be open too soon. But hey, maybe WDW has mystical construction crews that appear overnight and wave magic wands over the work site, or something like that... LOL

Re: TRex?

I thought I saw a sign when we were there last month. I seem to recall Fall 2008, but I'm not certain.

Walls were up, but I don't think they were working on a roof yet 3 weeks ago.
Based on delays at both Yak and Yeti and Japan, I'd give them a good month's buffer from the expected opening to the actual opening.

I hope when they say Fall 2008 that it is before I go in October. It looks like a cool place to go. I like the menu.

Re: TRex?

Yep, I was at DtD this evening, sorry my camera battery died. The sign definitely says Fall 2008. It doesn't look like much at the moment.
