    Oh no...has the menu been changed recently? The menu here says they have BBQ ribs, pork medallions, salmon, and steak. The Disney website only lists burgers and some pasta. My DS13 and DH was sooo looking forward to the BBQ ribs.

    I also prefer SciFi to H&V.

    Menus are subject to change on a moment's notice, but the most recent should be posted on the Disney site.

    Have a great trip!

    I wouldn't say that SciFi has great food compared to H&V, but the ambience is excellent. I'd say you made a good choice.

    If you go with expectations of having a nice burger and a shake you won't be disappointed...but if you go expecting fine dining your at the wrong place. Its a fun place to eat basic food.

    I can't be 100% sure, but I think it was grizzle and fat in the shape of a NY Strip.

    Stick to burgers and shakes and you'll be ok. Hope you don't get the server that never shut up like we did. Oh is there something on the movie screen? Is there sound? I wouldn't know because Slappy here is in love with his voice.

    Sci-Fi has great atmosphere and the food is pretty good. One of my "must dos" on each trip

    Go to Sci Fi for the atmosphere. I agree with other posters that their burgers and malts are better than the steaks and ribs! We just really like the atmosphere. The desserts were pretty good!

    "It's snowing still," said Eeyore gloomily.
    "So it is."
    "And freezing."
    "Is it?"
    "Yes," said Eeyore. "However," he said, brightening up a little, "we haven't had an earthquake lately."

    I really enjoyed Hollywood and Vine when I ate there last year! However, my son and I ate for the first time at Sci-Fi in May and had a good time (it would have been more enjoyable if we hadn't of been rushing to make our FP return time at Toy Story Mania, but that's another story). Service was prompt and friendly and the theming is unique, to be sure. I think the food was fine--not anything special, but as someone mentioned previously, you go there for the atmosphere more than the food. I got the veggie burger, which was good but falling apart a bit. My son got the shrimp pasta which he enjoyed but the portion was surprisingly small.

    Just an FYI--because of the way the "cars" are configured, if your party is 2 or 3 people, you will most likely be seated with another group. But they will be either in front or behind you and we didn't find this awkward at all. Since you are still seated in a row with your own party, there is no sense that you have to interact with the other group unless you wish to.

    We're a party of 5, so hopefully we will get the whole car to ourselves. I showed the kids the pics of Sci-Fi and they are really pumped to eat there now. Burgers and shakes sound good to me. We'll have to make sure we eat something else for lunch so we're not sick of burgers by supper time.

    DSs and I love Sci Fi. DH banned it this trip since he is not a burger fan and prefers more exotic choices.

    DSs love eating in the cars.

    They have great sandwiches and burgers at Sci Fi and my MIL really like the dish with the Tofu.

    Maybe I'm the crazy one, or it's just been a while and I had freak experiences, but IMHO H&V blew Sci-Fi out of the water! It would be so disappointing to me if it has changed since because I remember LOVING H&V when I was younger!

    Sad day. :/
