I've been to universal studios plenty of times but always missed going to this place. It is a wonderful place to frequent if you have the time and have a season pass like I did. The food ordered were the 1-up green mushroom hot pocket vegetarian. It actually tastes like this hot pocket microwaveable pizzas you would otherwise get at the grocery store. But, the design, look and uniqueness of the food was delicious looking. I also ordered a pretzel with three sauces. This item was their best deal for a snack as it was about $10 and with the discounted season pass about $8 or so. It was cheaper than the mushrooms and drinks here. Also less fattening and less unnatural ingredients. I thought service was average and to be fair, isn't a pleasant job. The ambiance is cute and nice to look at. Great interior and exterior design throughout. The overall appeal and decoration were spectacular more or less. Good meal to have to keep you from getting lightheaded in this heat. For some reason, always crowded with tourists and locals. The lines even on a Friday morning were ridiculous. However, the lines even for this place was sort of okay. I rate the following below: 1-up mushroom 3/5, it was a unique looking hot pocket more or less Pretzel with dipping sauce 4/5, better value better taste simple and came with three decent sauces to overcome this bland taste by itself of a pretzel. There wasn't even salt on the pretzel. It was bready, but the sauces were great. Good comeback to bland. I would come back just to get the pretzel for its value and the three sauces that make up for the blandness the pretzel had anyway. It tasted fine texture wise, not too hard and not too soft.

The decor is so adorable, very British pub feel. The food was delicious - we ordered a kids chicken tenders, bangers and mash, and a Shepards pie. The kids chicken tenders were not as dry as it looked, the fries were tasty. The bangers and mash was yum, I wish the mashed potatoes were hotter... same for the Shepard's pie - the temp was warm vs hot. It came with a salad that was pretty fresh tasting. The waiting line for ordering was long and took probably 30 mins to order food, and it's kind of hunger game style to get a table... I wished the tables were more guided by the employees like the ordering counter so it'll give them time to clean off the table and seat people more orderly... but overall the food was decent and the staff were friendly. Dragon Scale tasted like an amber beer. It was also quite tasty. The pear cider (no alcohol) was a bit sweet, paired better with the water to dilute it a little. Overall surprisingly great food at a theme park, I was impressed!

That burger was so darn good. Very melty and savory. Love the use of cheese. Well done, Mr. Beast.read more

My son, a thirteeen year old, and thus the marketing demographic for MrBeast Burger has been…read morerequesting we order from here for a while. We had to wait until my gluten-free wife had other plans for the evening as they don't offer a gluten-free bun (and though I see some reviews indicating you can lettuce wrap, there is no way to actually order this on their website, app, or 3rd party delivery service menus.) It's an interesting concept, the creator clearly parlaying his success has a social media person into getting his troves of fans to purchase his brand of burgers. I mean you can get a burger anywhere which is just as good, but if you're a fan, it must be MrBeast. First off, 1 star down to any restaurant that either doesn't allow special instructions when you order from their website, or the third party delivery services, AND doesn't allow for sufficient customization. I mean take The Beast Style, for example. It comes with American Cheese, Pickles, Diced White Onion, Mayo, Ketchup, and brown mustard. They offer options to modify, and I can remove cheese and onions (if I wanted) but I can't remove ketchup, mustard, or Mayo. On the Chandler style which comes without these items, I can add them all or remove cheese. So if I wanted a Beast without Mayo I' need to order a Chandler and add all the things back and it ends up costing a few dollars more. That's weird. Why can I remove cheese and onions, but I can't remove the sauces? Again, 1 star off for not allowing special instructions or all the options customizable. Big kudos for offering Impossible Burgers. I'm a vegetarian so I fully appreciate being able to eat here at all because of this offering. I did get a Beast Style Impossible Burger, and then had to call the restaurant to ask them to not put mayonnaise on it. That was a bit of spy-work as there's not phone number and they're actually located within another restaurant (That's their virtual concept) so a lot of weird "Is this Mr. Beast Burger" when another restaurant answers. They were willing to remove the mayonnaise. Praise God. The burger was good. the flavor profile reminded me of what a basic McDonald's Hamburger tasted like...I mean it had the same ingredients so that was to be expected. It only came with 1 patty though...their menu says "Two Smashed crispy Impossible Patties..." Not sure if they were 2 super-thin patties that were just "smashed" together to make it seem like one...but it sure seemed like 1 patty and not like the picture. The fries arrived soggy...we get food delivery a lot and some restaurants know how to properly package items like fries so they arrive still warm and not soggy...others don't. Looks like MrBeast Burger might have some work to do on this, especially since they're a delivery only restaurant. There are many places, even here in the Santa Clarita Valley, where I can get a vegetarian burger, so if I'm going to break own to my teen's influencee preference and order from here again, I hope they start to allow more modifications, allow ordering of gluten-free options (ideally a bun) and figure out how to make french fries arrive at my house still crispy. Last question, MrBeast Burger...Is there a MrsBeast Burger??

On a family of 4, you will be spending 1K just to enter the park. But I have to say the fast pass is worth it. I get to go on all the rides with minimum wait.

I love to see the decorations, the animations, the simulations they put in. Also the thrill of fast speed and small drops. Picture with characters is a must. You can see the characters timetable on the app. The app also allows you to track the wait time, order food ahead and make reservations. Staff are friendly. Bathrooms are clean. The whole park is clean. Merchandise is good. I had a great time. I wish they have more mist fans along the park to cool down visitors.

Ten years ago, when I was working in the travel industry, I visited Universal Studios Hollywood…read moremore than 20 times a year. Because of that, I've always had a special connection with this place and many great memories here. Compared with Disneyland, I've always preferred Universal Studios a little more. While many amusement parks focus heavily on roller coasters and intense rides that can leave you dizzy, Universal Studios offers more attractions built around movie themes, including immersive 3D and 4D experiences. Personally, I feel this style of entertainment is more enjoyable for adults. This year, I finally came back again, and I was surprised by how much has changed over the past few years. The new Fast & Furious roller coaster has just been completed and is currently undergoing testing. Watching all those crazy twists, turns, drops, combined with the G-forces and centrifugal force... I personally decided that I'm definitely NOT brave enough to ride it. Haha! Then there's SUPER NINTENDO WORLD, which opened a few years ago. I highly recommend getting the Power-Up Band. It lets you interact with different activities and challenges throughout the park and basically doubles the fun of the entire experience. Mario Kart has also taken the theme-park experience to another level. It feels almost like playing a real-life video game, complete with challenges, scoring, and leaderboards showing the highest scores of the day and month. It definitely gives people a reason to come back and keep trying to beat their previous scores. In the past, whenever I brought guests here, I would simply accompany them around the park and enjoy the attractions with them. This time, however, I decided to buy a VIP Experience ticket. It costs about two to three times more than a regular ticket, but personally, I think it was absolutely worth it. Our English-speaking tour guide took us around on a private tour vehicle and explained everything in great detail. We were also able to get off the vehicle and actually walk through areas of the working studio lot. We even had the opportunity to visit the prop department. Seeing all those familiar items from older movies brought back so many memories. The VIP pass also allows you to skip the regular lines for attractions, which makes a huge difference. Whenever you get thirsty, you can return to the VIP dining area to grab some water. The VIP restrooms are also very clean and private. On top of that, the package includes brunch and complimentary valet parking. For me, the VIP Experience was absolutely worth the extra cost. I had previously bought a Harry Potter robe, but unfortunately, my cat managed to destroy it. So this time, I bought another one--and went a step further by having my own name embroidered on the robe. I also bought myself Dumbledore's Elder Wand. The wand isn't just something nice to display. You can actually use it to perform interactive spells throughout the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. Knowing that I can use these interactive wands at Harry Potter attractions around the world suddenly gave me the urge to visit every Universal Studios park worldwide someday. Overall, I know Universal Studios Hollywood has been around for a long time, but somehow I still discover something new every time I visit. Even though I used to come here constantly, returning after all these years still brought back so many wonderful memories while giving me completely new experiences at the same time. Five stars from me--not only for the park that continues to create dreams and bring movies to life, but also for all the friendly, enthusiastic, and hardworking employees who make the experience so memorable. 十年前，我在做旅遊的時候，基本上是每一年超過20次以上去參觀洛杉磯的環球影城，所以我對這個地方有很不錯的感覺。比起迪士尼，我一直更喜歡這裏多一些，比起很多遊樂園幾乎都是雲霄飛車和讓人頭暈目眩的設施，影城更多是契合電影主題的3D或是4D電影設施，我感覺這裡的玩法更適合成人。 所以今年我重新再去一次，突然發現這幾年有很多的改變，包括速度與激情的雲霄飛車剛做好正開放試車，超級誇張的旋轉、跳躍、加上重力加速度和離心力，本人選擇不敢搭。哈！還有前幾年完工的超級瑪莉園區，強推一定要買他的腕帶，然後在公園裡破功，娛樂型加倍；還有馬力歐賽車升級版，不僅像是打遊戲一樣的通關設定，更有排行榜產生單日和單月最高分，讓遊客更想回頭一直玩。 以前每一次帶客人去，我都是陪著玩，這次我買了VIP門票，比平常的門票貴了兩到三倍，但是我個人感覺值得。講英文的導遊細細的帶著我們坐著導覽車，並且可以步行在拍片的區域，甚至讓我們去參觀道具部門，滿滿的老片回憶湧上心頭。拿著VIP通行，不僅是所有的遊樂設施都能插隊，更多時候，要是口渴隨時可以回到VIP午餐區拿水，VIP的廁所也非常乾淨和隱私，加上VIP還提供早午餐和免費代客停車的服務。非常值得。 我個人之前買過一次哈利波特的長袍，但是被我家貓咪給抓壞了，這次不僅重買一套，還繡了自己的名字在袍上，也給自己買了一把鄧不力多的接龍骨魔杖。這魔杖不光是好看而已，還能在全世界的哈利波特園區玩魔法咒語闖關。讓我突發了去全世界每一個環球影城的衝動。 總之，我知道這是一個老牌的遊樂園了，每一次來，我都有不錯的收穫。即使以前我常常來，這次故地重遊依然是滿滿的好回憶，我願意給五星好評價，給整個創造夢想的樂園，和所有用心親切工作的熱心員工。
