Brian's Review

This fast food restaurant is themed to resemble the dormitory of the archaeology students that are ostensibly digging Dinoland USA for fossils.  The themeing is handled well.  I've never experienced the character breakfast here, but I've had lunch here many times.  The first several times, the service at the counter was terribly slow.  On my most recent visit, in the Spring of 2001, things had improved to the point of being more like a typical counter service restaurant.  I'm glad things are better now.  I'd highly recommend that you read some of the guest reviews below for more information on the character breakfast that is served here.

Restaurantosaurus is unique in that it serves McDonald's fries and chicken McNuggets, but all other food is non-McDonalds. 

Donald's Breakfastosaurus, the character breakfast buffet held at Restaurantosaurus, serves a meal that includes visits to your table by Donald and other character favorites.

One thing to point out, is this is the only place within any of the Walt Disney World parks where you can purchase a McDonald's happy meal (with McNuggets and fries) with special dinosaur toys.  The last time my family had a meal there, the toy was squirt guns in the shape of one of several dinos (T-Rex, Triceratops, etc.).
