Question I could use some help please.

I won a trip to universal and we will be going Nov 3-6. Then going to Disney from the 6-10. Now my question is do i have to make ADR's for universal also? Food was not included in the trip. I hate having to deal with where I'm going to eat 3 months from now.

Thanks for all the advice.

Oh and we are staying at the Lowes Royal pacific hotel so any suggestions as to where to go eat for breakfast and dinner?

Thanks again!!

The only place that I would make a reservation for would be Mythos or Emeril's. We never make ADRs for Universal, we more play it by ear.

Jennifer just asked about breakfast options in this post - I just answered that, so you can check it out here:

Breakfast options

Honestly, we're not overwhelmed by Universal's dining options. I've heard Mama Della's at Portofino Bay was good, but never tried it. There are several restaurants at CityWalk, so you have a good many choices.

City Walk Restaurants at Universal Orlando Resort

Tchoup Chop is located at the Royal Pacific. I've heard good things about it:

Royal Pacific Resort Restaurants including Emerils Restaurant in Orlando Florida

Good luck!

We like Margaritaville (we have been to City Walk, just never the parks)! Yes, you can get it other places, but not by us. The atmosphere is great and the food is pretty darn good, though it isn't fancy.

Other than Mythos in Islands of Adventure and the restaurants out in CityWalk, I find the counter service to be much better.

If you are going to make a reservation for anything, you would probably need to do it for Mythos (for either meal) and Emerils (dinner especially).

Keep in mind, Universal is not Disney so they do not do "ADR's" and I believe they accept them for a different time frame.

To make a reservation for Finnegan's or Lombard's (the 2 table service places at Universal Studios), call (407) 224-3613 . . . to make reservations for the IOA restaurants (Confisco Grill or Mythos), call (407)224-4012.

The CityWalk restaurants have different phone numbers to call for a Priority Seating. Some you can make reservations at and some don't accept them. The numbers and such are listed here: City Walk Restaurants at Universal Orlando Resort
