![]() We use them a lot at home and store a snack in the bottom. It even comes with a small dinosaur toy in the bottom. And whatever you do, do not forget the adorable souvenir cups that are filled with your child’s favorite ICEE flavor. They have Prehistoric Popcorn Shrimp, Jurassic Chicken Tidbits (in dino shape!), Paleo Pizza, and so much more. That’s because almost all of the selections are things that my super picky eaters love. The children’s menu has more choices than most of the other Disney restaurants. One of the reasons our kids love this restaurant is because of the great children’s menu. I’m guessing that if you are reading this review you either have children or you are a kid at heart. If you would like to take a gander at the menu, you can find it HERE. Bring it back, Landry’s!!!! Sorry, I’m still a bit peeved they took off our go-to meal at this place. But sadly, some moron decided to take it off the menu. That bad boy was so big that it literally hung off the edge of the plate and it was so tender, juicy, and perfectly spiced. At one time they offered an amazingly tasty Cretaceous Chicken Fried Steak with white gravy. While the flavors are mild, the dishes do all have cutesy dino-inspired names like Mega-Mes-O-Bones (ribs) and Neanderthal New York Strip. T-Rex is part of the Landry’s group and this means that the menu isn’t very unique. At T-Rex, it also means that you are going to get a lot of food and if you choose wisely, it’s likely to be pretty tasty. It’s themed dining, but themed dining doesn’t just mean cool surroundings. I mean, that is why you read a dining review, right? Ok, so let’s be real. It’s time to get real and talk about the eats. Walking around or visiting the gift shop is always a great way to pass the time with rambunctious children while the grub is prepared. My children love the Triceratops, but T-Rex totally freaks my youngest child out and has since he was a baby. My husband and I actually love to walk around the restaurant and read the plaques about the different dinosaurs with our boys. This restaurant is VERY loud and it can be very overwhelming, but my boys love it now that they are a bit older and overstimulation is not as big an issue. My children love the ice cave area because it is constantly changing colors, however my food always looks a bit off because of the lighting. There is also a forest area, a meteor shower area, and the ice cave area. Watch out for the gigantic octopus that moves above, but check out the beautiful fish tanks nearby too. You can ask for the undersea area which includes the bar area and a stunning salt water tank. There are four themed areas throughout the restaurant. T-Rex is full of some of the coolest dinosaurs in all shapes and sizes that actually move and “talk”. Although Disney doesn’t own T-Rex, this restaurant uses animatronics to make their decor come to life. T-Rex is all about bringing what was once extinct back to life, but not in the way the scary Jurassic Park series did. ![]() However, don’t go looking for a Pterodactyl omelette, because T-Rex has yet to master the art of breakfast. ![]() T-Rex is open for expeditions for lunch and dinner. We prefer to do a late lunch, because the crowds get really crazy if you wait until a typical dinner time. We typically choose to go on arrival day because it gives us time to explore the rest of Disney Springs. ![]() T-Rex is located in Disney Springs near The Lego Store and the newest retail shops. I mean, isn’t that was Disney is all about, making wishes come true? Regardless, eating at this restaurant is one of the few requests he makes each trip, so T-Rex it is. I don’t know if the reason is the interactive theme, fun gift shop, or the lure of the chocolate extinction dessert. T-Rex is my son’s top pick when we are planning a Disney vacation. Are your children obsessed with dinosaurs? If so, let us fill you in on the perfect spot for your next meal in this Video: T-Rex: Dining with Dinosaurs-A Disney Dining Review.
