We went here after a long day in Hollywood Studios. Our waiter was great, very sassy. He had my niece set the table and chastised those that could not finish their adult beverages. He forgot my coke and when I pointed it out to him he brought me 4 cokes! The food was outstanding. We all ordered the fried chicken and it is a HUGE serving, seriously...like 5 or 6 pieces of chicken plus two sides, easily shareable. The fried chicken is so delicious. We enjoyed the atmosphere as well, feels like a small place with the seating and the tvs. Will definitely go back.
Pros:
Excellent food and a good time interacting with the wait staff. Cool atmosphere as well.Cons:
If you aren't into sassy waiters or getting picked on this might not be for you. It is definitely a little pricey.Reviewed by LikeWonderland Review Date: 12/20/2021

Great food, amazing service, well priced, fun atmosphere. We loved our experience here! My wife and I both got the sampler with pot roast, meatloaf, fried chicken, and sides. It was a good amount of food for the price! We also shared a slice of chocolate peanut butter cake, which was huge! and delicious! We honestly can't wait to go back again on our next trip!

We had dinner here, but it could be a little heavy for lunch.Reviewed by Summertime3218 Review Date: 12/14/2021

When my husband and I visited Hollywood studios this past October, our original plan was to not get a reservation and just snack around the park. About halfway through our day, due to the good experiences we had at the other parks on our trip, we decided to end up getting a reservation. While reservations for 50s prime time are hard to come by, even 60 days out, we got very lucky and were able to get on the walk up list. Even better, after we joined the walk up list, we had about an hour to kill, so we were able to finish up our time in Galaxy’s edge, and leisurely make our way to the restaurant. So that was wonderful in and of itself.
Now for the ‘beef’ (pun intended) of the review, first off - Cousin Luis did absolutely right by us. He was funny, had some great jokes, and we truly felt like we were family! If you go, and he is your server, you are going to be treated right! He also had some great recommendations, and overall was a 10/10 server.
For drinks, I ordered the Cherry sprite, and my hubs ordered a root beer. Both were delicious, and Luis made sure we didn’t go thirsty while we waited for our food, which was also top-of-the-line divine. We ordered the Onion Rings as an appetizer, they were crispy, delicious, and the onions inside the batter were actually tasty!
Then the main course, husband got Fried Chicken, and I originally got the pot roast. After we had ordered, my stomach politely reminded me that eating a heavy pot roast was probably a bad idea, so I asked Luis to change my order to the Caesar salad with Salmon. He teased me about it, but still (while being very busy) managed to change my order quickly and brought it out at the same time as my husbands!
I did sneak some of the fried chicken of hubs plate, but almost got my hand bitten. The fried chicken was better than any I have ever tasted, that’s for sure. My salad was also amazing! The salmon was perfectly seasoned, there was a good amount of dressing, and overall was absolutely wonderful. I absolutely will come eat here again when we come back!
Pros:
Great food, cousins make you feel at home, Cherry sprite is fantastic, decor is LEGENDARY.Cons:

Great 50’s atmosphere, fantastic food and beverages. The peanut butter and jelly milkshake is amazing!! The fried chicken is my absolute favorite. Interactive waiters/waitresses and a very fun place to dine. Just reserve ahead of time, walk ups are difficult to get at this place.

Good food, great atmosphere and fun staff.Cons:

This was my favorite place I dined when visiting Disney World! While the food itself is nothing special, it's still really delicious. The atmosphere is so fun, themeing is spot on. If you and your family want somewhere fun to dine that all the kids will probably love, this is for you.

This is one of my favorite restaurants in all of Walt Disney World! I love the theming! It’s like being transported back to the 50s. I love that they treat you like family and they make you eat your vegetables lol. The wait staff is always great. The food is so delicious and filling. I love this place and I always make sure to make a reservation here whenever I’m at Hollywood Studios.
Pros:
Theming, food, waitstaff...everything!Cons:

I absolutely love this restaurant. It’s one of my family’s favorites, and we never miss going here on our trips. The food is fantastic. My husband loves the fried chicken while I love the old-fashioned pot roast. Milkshakes and desserts are delicious. The theming is spot-on and nostalgic. This a definite must-do. Ask for a table with a tv. The wait staff will try to tease you about not eating your vegetables or putting your elbows on the table.
Pros:
Food. Theming.Cons:

First time eating here on my last visit in September 2020. Loved the atmosphere. I have a very good meal which was the sampler platter as there were too many good options. I ate it all. Loved watching the little TV at my table.
