Thank you, Erica, Ryno & Craig! This will probably be one of my fave dining reviews you all have done. I was so bummed after getting up at the crack of dawn for 60 days’ ADR to not be able to get 1 at SciFi; but maybe next time. I’m Vegan, so I’m so happy Erica liked her Impossible burger, fries & Vegan shake. 🎉That is so cool that Adam, the CM, was so outstanding. I could watch classic SciFi for hours, too, Craig.

What I love about SciFi the most? The cars force the restaurant to give you the proper amount of space to enjoy the meal. In so many spots at WDW, it’s hard to eat without servers bumping into my elbows or back, and I’m not a very big person.

This place is a favorite of ours. Lots of nostalgia and that’s just ours (been dining at Sci Fi since 1992). The comment about cast member Adam is something that is definitely not as common as it used to be. We used to have actual friends among the staff at the parks and resorts and this was before we moved to Orlando. We used to visit twice a year up until we moved to Orlando (we had at least twice weekly visits while living there and no blackouts as our annual passes were purchased while still living in NY). We developed relationships with cast members we would see frequently, especially at the resorts. We kept in touch while away from Disney World, even exchanged gifts and phone numbers. When visiting, we would often go out to dinner together (always off property as to not appear inappropriate). We would sometimes receive perks that weren’t advertised, but still available upon request…we just never had to request them. Those are things that make us want to return to Disney so often. We don’t get that kind of treatment at other resorts or other theme parks. In recent years though, it appeared that even Disney was losing people that made a difference. This post prices that wrong. Looking forward to our next visit.

I went with my family in December and was lucky to get a Dining Reservation for 2 at the 60 days out, but we had 3 when we got there. When I told the CM we wanted to add another, they said sure but instead of giving us our own car they crammed us into the back seat of one car. We barely had enough room to eat but we managed. The food itself was ok, and I'm glad we got to experience the theming, but we won't go back again.

As for the server…if I remember correctly, when we would use the dining plan the servers would ask for your whole order at once. Maybe they are just trying to get into the habit of asking being the DP is coming back? With that being said…I hated when they would ask for your whole order at the beginning and it also seemed all the courses would come out very quickly one after another! 😤

I sat there the whole ride trying to figure out her name to say hi and couldn’t think of it 😅 I’m super introverted and she appeared to be as well so I just told my hubby I “know” her from KZfaq.

Not sure if nostalgia got the better of the Dis Unplugged crew or if they really enjoyed the experience. We dined there on June 1st and it was not very good. Great AC, dark and quiet but the cast members rushed our experience and then took for ever to cash out the bill. We were not given any of the extra care they experienced. Over all I give the restaurant a C+.

We have eaten there two times. We love the theme. Both times, the service was horrible. They took way too long to order and receive the food. Even getting the check was a hassle. When we expressed our concern over how long it took, the supervisor told us that the "experience" is expected to take a few hours. What???? Food is subpar. On the second visit, I actually broke my tooth on the pimento cheese hamburger. The server told us that sometimes there's small bones in the meat. I was offered a fast pass for the trouble. They didn't even want to refund my dining credit back. This was pre pandemic. While the look of the restaurant is really cool I will not go back. I'd rather go to the Backlot.

Even though I love sci fi, I actually prefer the other 'gimmick' restaurant (50's Prime Time) because the food is just better and more varied. $140 for 3 for basically a 'burger joint' is just too steep IMO. I did really love the ambience the few times I've been there but Prime Time is just as fun (if not more so if you enjoy interacting with the cast members).

I love seeing Sci Fi. TY. I’m sorry your waitress did not meet with your expectations. Perhaps she was not feeling her best n had to come in as she did not have paid sick time. Or perhaps she is covering more tables than her normal shift due to someone else not coming in. Course, not everyone is an extrovert n feels comfortable interacting n entertaining guests. Some people have that gift naturally n some have to learn it n it takes time. Be kind - always - not everyone has reached their best level yet and are a work in progress
