Sci Fi VS 50's - Page 2

palmickey · 05-11-2008

We love both of them. Sci-Fi has, in my opinion, the best burger hands down. 50's is also great, I had the meatloaf and Brenda had the roast beef I believe. We would go to both of them anytime. I just wish you could get the Fantasmic dinner package at both of them. I do not care for Hollywood & Vine and Mama's is OK but not for every trip!

We were not fond of 50's Prime time. the food was o.k., but the atmosphere was not to our liking. we do not like being disturbed while eating, which was a constant. Sci-Fi is a tradition for us for lunch. The film clip should be updated, as we know the clips by heart, but the atmosphere is cool, and brings us back to the days if drive in theaters. The food is o.k. Our only complaint is that ti is hard to read the menu and the check in the car with the lighting.

If your friend has never been to Sci-Fi that would be my choice since it is so unique.
I love the food there and haven't herd as many bad reviews as of late.

I am so glad you asked this question because I have been going back and forth with the two of them myself. I have never been to either one.

That's okay. But do yourself a favor. If you do go to 50's PT AVOID THE SHRIMP COCKTAIL.

You'd think that being in Florida they would have seafood caught in this century, but the skanky stuff we had disproves that notion.

My husband loves Sci-Fi. It is a must for us everytime we go.They have great milkshakes and the BLT soup is awesome.PLus you can get a vanilla coke (which I just love) They used to have this amazing steak sandwich but took it of the menu a couple years back. I have only to been to 50's PT a couple of times, and I enjoyed both visits, but I would say a visit to that restaurant depends on your willingness to participate in some pretty silly stuff. If your friend doesn't mind being told to eat her veggies or "no elbows on the table", it's a great place to go. The last time we went it was with a large party and we had a blast. Honestly we had so much fun, I really remember that more than I do the food. Tough choice. They are both fun places with decent food IMO. I think both are more about atmosphere than food. I will be interested to see what you pick and how you like it.

I really disliked sci-fi's food and the service was terrible.I personally like 50's PT better.
