Back from 10 days of Free Dining.
We are DH, Me, DD11, DS8, (plus MIL54, FIL55, BIL26, SIL25)
Here is the TS we ate at at MGM:
SCI-FI
We got in within 5 minutes for a 12:30 ressie.
DH had Mushroom Burger, chocolate shake, coke and onion rings
DS8 had Cheeseburger, fruit and cheese appetizer, kids ice cream dessert
DD11 and I shared Ribs, onion rings, coke, and chocolate sundae
DH liked it, and DS liked his.
DD and I did not like the ribs, found them very very salty. There was 6 ribs on the plate, so we had enough, though I only ate 2 because I didn't like them. The onion rings were okay, but very greasy, and I didn't love the beer batter on them. Our server brought us out 2 glasses of coke, and even had split our meal onto two plates. (she also did that to MIL and SIL who shared a bbq chicken sandwich)
The ambience was cute, but it is very dark in there! And amazingly quiet!
We give it an average of 3.25 out of 5.
Would we go again? Yes, if it was free!
HOLLYWOOD AND VINE
We had the buffet of course, since that is all that is offered! We had to wait about 35 minutes for our table, didn't like that too much!! Ressie was for 5:50. Saw them turn away about 20 people who tried to walk up.
We liked it here! The food was good. We really liked the garlic mashed potatoes. The kids meatballs and chicken were very good. FIL loved the shrimp. We only saw our server once, so was hard getting refills on soda! Kids liked it here, there was lots of choices for the eight of us. The brownies tasted old and freezer burnt. Though the fruit desserts were good. We had the Fantasmic package, but we didn't even sit in that section. Did like the back walkway though to avoid the lineup at the Fantasmic gate.
Price would have been $84.00
We give it an average of 3.5.
Would we go again? Yes, if it was free!
50'S PRIME-TIME CAFE
Had a lunch ressie for 12:15, got in within 10 minutes.
It is so cute in there! MIL liked it alot!
We had Mikey for our server, he was too funny. He picked on me the most. When I went to the bathroom, when I came back he asked me what color the soap was. I said pink or blue? He was yelling, well, which one was it? Then he yelled at another server lady that I didn't wash my hands. Too funny. When I would ask a question, he was like "Didn't I just tell you that, duh!" He called DD sis all the time, she thought it was funny. He was snarky, brother-like, teased us, it was great!
DH and DS shared the Fried Chicken, with fries and that green stuff
DD and I shared the Fried Chicken, with mashed potatoes and corn (I asked for corn!) You get 4 pieces of chicken, more than enough to share!
BIL had the PotPie and said it was great. SIL had the pot roast and loved it too.
Appetizers we had salad, didn't care for it. DS also had a smoothie. We all had milkshakes, because we ordered them before we decided to share. We didn't get charged, though we should have for one extra smoothie and one extra milkshake. The shakes were very good!
I didn't finish my corn. He told me I had to. He came back a few minutes later and I still wasn't done it. He said fine and took my plate. A few minutes later he came back with 'dessert' for me. It was whipped cream with sprinkles on top!! And---corn underneath!! Too funny! Kids loved it there. Fun for all ages!
The Brownie sundae was awesome!
Price would have been $73.92 (for only 2 meals, with app., drink and dessert)
We gave it a 4.5 out of 5.
Would we eat there again, YES!!
That was our MGM experience, with Prime Time being the clear winner!

That's funny about the "green stuff". I was raised eating collard greens, turnip greens. So when others don't know what they are it kind shocks me. Dh had never had them till he moved down "south" and now he loves them. Also he found he loves friend okra and sweet tea.
