Just became a Universal Annual Passholder today, and wanted to say thanks again for all the info, it's been really helpful! We haven't dined at Citywalk yet, but because of this video we stopped by to check our the menu at Cowfish --- looks great!! May I ask what your favorite park snacks are :)? I'm hoping to try a Pumpkin Pasty on my next visit. (Got to ride Hagrid's Motorbike for the first time today... WOW!!) Thanks again, and have a good one!

Jenn L that’s an amazing video idea that we might have to do in the future! We are so glad that the videos have been helpful.

Thanks for watching.

On our first trip we were so focused on exploring every shop, show, and ride in the park we didn't have time for sit down restaurants, we only ate at the smaller themed places in the parks. Our next trip coming up we'll actually have time to sit down and enjoy CityWalk. We will definitely try these three restaurants first they sound amazing!

I read several reviews of restaurants in City Walk and decided to try CowFish. It will be on my list every trip! I got the bento box and it was so yummy! My hubby got a burger and loved the truffle fries. Honestly, that was the best service I have gotten in any restaurant anywhere I’ve ever eaten. Just exceptional service. 10 out of 10 would recommend.

Just found your channel today, really enjoying! It's nice to find people with the same love of Universal. Of the City walk restaurants we have been to Antojitos is number one. We were really impressed. 2 would be Margaritaville JUST for the volcano nachos. Then NBC, we had the pretzel and it's good but Auntie Anne's right outside still tastes better imo. Haven't been to Cowfish yet. We love sushi tho and to be honest I'm usually disappointed in all sushi but the local place I get it, I'm scared to try! We have given Toothsome a couple goes on regular food and just don't care for it but the desserts are obviously amazing. The wife ate at the Bob Marley place and she liked it. If I could only eat at one place tho it would be Voodoo Donuts 😁

Hi Anna & Tyler, Thanks for sharing you top restaurants in CityWalk. I agree with most of what you said, but were like to hear your opinions of Hard Rock Cafe. I have to be honest, it is my favorite. Especially when they have live music on the patio. Also, I will add that at of all the restaurants, they have the best service, everyone is always hustling. I also wonder, do you ever venture out of Universal and ever visit any of the local restaurants in the area. There are several excellent ones that I visit often. Ken

Hi Ken! We have actually only eaten at the HR cafe once or twice in CityWalk. We typically try to eat at restaurants that are exclusive to CityWalk when we go there! We’ve eaten at several HR cafes before! Now that we’ve moved down here, we’re starting to branch out and there’s SO much good food!!

@ThePughTwo 3 жыл бұрын
You CAN walk in, however when it is really busy at the parks, they will often run out of tables very early and be booked the rest of the night! We always recommend booking reservations especially if there is somewhere you are wanting to eat!

Hi, we are going to HHN for first time next month. We are going to plan to leave to get some chicken Parm at Vivos...my 13 year old is picky and chicken Parm is something he consistently likes. First, I don't want my own meal because I don't want to carry leftovers. Would it be terrible if I order a salad and eat a little of his food so we finish it all? Is there anywhere else in the park or on city walk that we can get chicken Parm where it won't look so tacky to share a meal (so maybe not table service)? Appreciate any suggestions!
@ThePughTwo Жыл бұрын
Hi there! That's a great question, and I'm not sure if there's anywhere in the parks that have chicken parm. You could check the menus online, my best suggestion would be Lombards in Universal Studios. And I don't think sharing would look tacky at all!

You don't have to have valid park admission to enter CityWalk. All you have to do is park in the parking deck and pay the fee, then go through security. Just fyi. ;) Also, I don't recommend this, as you will see rides and get super forlorn that you cannot enter both parks in addition to CityWalk haha.
