50's Prime Time Café 351 South Studio Drive, Lake Buena Vista, FL 32830

"The 50's Prime Time Café is one of the most unique dining experiences you can have! The mid-century decor, vintage television shows playing everywhere, and gingham checked, quick-wit waitstaff will take you back in time! Menu is classic American comfort food...not fancy, but wonderfully prepared and delicious! Don't be surprised if you are "scolded" for cellphone use, elbows on the table, or not pushing in your chair. Reservations are a must! Don't miss this place! Highly recommended!"

"So to be honest I had no interest of eating here. Went with friends and this was recommended and chosen. Let me tell you I was shocked by the deliciousness of the simple “comfort” foods. The food was extremely delicious. I got the platter and so did the other adults. Rave reviews by all. The kids got chicken and they loved it as well! Some of the best and juiciest friend chicken I’ve ever had and the pot roast was delicious!! Would definitely come back again! The turn back in time was lovely and I wish my house had some of these retro elements! The staff was great too!"

"October 2023: This was our first time dining at 50’s Prime Time Cafe where reservations are required. I made a “Fantasmic! Dining Package” lunch reservation about a week and half before arriving at WDW. This allowed us to not enjoy a delicious meal with passes for VIP seating at Fantasmic!. The outside had that Midcentury-Modern architecture and as you walk inside you are transformed to the 1950s. While being escorted to our table we walked by little rooms reflecting my grandmother’s kitchen. It was pretty cool how they did it where our 50’s decor was impressive with the furniture, small black & white TV (clips of classic sitcom shows on it), and classic table setting. The cast members are also in character to transform you back in time when food had no preservatives, television was in its Golden Age, and innocence was profound. It was a fun atmosphere. We ordered the Aunt Liz's Golden Fried Chicken and Caesar Salad with Chicken. It was a lot of chicken where it was four huge pieces and I had to help my wife eat it. The chicken was really good with tremendous flavor. The Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes with it was just as good. The salad was not bad either with fresh greens and soft cut chicken breast strips. Overall it was another great meal at a WDW restaurant."

"The food is pretty decent, if you want classic American home style cooking at Disney prices, this is the place for you. I first visited quite a few years ago, and had a long hair in my food, so I didn't go back for 7 years. I finally returned, and had a much better experience with the food. I had the chicken pot pie, which was more of a creamy chicken stew with a puff pastry on top, sadly not what I was expecting, but nonetheless tasty. My friends got the meatloaf and mashed potatoes, which was ok, not as good as my dad's meatloaf. Another friend ordered the pot roast, which was tasty and had a plentiful amount of gravy. I also ordered a wedge salad, which had cherry tomatoes, rice paper "bacon", and vegan ranch dressing. The dressing was fantastic, and overall a good salad, just not worth $11. Our server, cousin Kim, was lots of fun, and made the entire experience way more fun. She was also attentive and knowledgeable."

"Excellent fried chicken, deviled eggs and shrimp and grits. You have to try the fried cheese. Our server was phenomenal and we love the vintage themed atmosphere. Definitely a great spot for family dining and some laughs. Keep your elbows off the table and eat all your veggies."
