Trying Food and Drinks at Universal’s First Epic Universe Hotel

[@mattrrissman]

Quietly advertised perk of staying in a Universal hotel: you can request an amenity key for any of the other Universal hotels by visiting the destination hotel front desk and showing the room key for your hotel. The amenity key can then be used to access fitness center and pool etc at that other hotel. So if you want to do a pool day at a different hotel than you are staying at, you can! Thanks for this review. ❤

That only applies to certain hotels. Endless summer and most likely this property as well cannot use a higher level hotel amenities.

[@mattrrissman]

@ I’ve never had any issue staying at cabana bay or aventura and using amenities at the top tier hotels. Maybe they have changed that now due to restratifying the hotels, if so that would be very recent

[@petochok1]

@@mattrrissman if you're staying at cabana, Aventura, sapphire falls, or the 3 deluxe properties you can use the amenities between them all. If you're at endless summer or Stella Nova you cannot.

The hotel really feels like they put all their eggs in the “men in black international” reboot basket and left the hotel styled as MiB even after it flopped.

I love your food reviews, cracks me up every time.

"TOM HATES UNIVERSAL!" (Then he proceeds to compliment the first two items he eats.) And ALWAYS wonderful to see Miss Allison!

[@Audrey.SmilingSticks]

Always enjoy when Alison joins you for a review!

That Nebula sounds a lot like a lemon drop where it masks the actual alcohol and you end up paying for it later. 😅 I'm not a drinker, but i could probably put away 3 of those and not realize I'm about to have a rough morning.

I agree 💯 about Bayliner Diner...best quick service food of all the resorts❤ but excited to try Cosmos Cafe in two days when I arrive

[@archfox949]

knew this would be stellar.

[@toddcribbs6844]

Tom your the best 👌 your entertaining and your awesome 👌

[@jgkidd82]

Glad to see Miss Alison with you for the dinner review. I do think they should have more vegan options but the Mac and cheese looks really good.

[@Project-Jaden]

They need a space age sit down restaurant so badly Almost would want to go to space 220 for dinner if I stayed here

[@megmcguigan3857]

That would be so cool, they should do that. Something space retro would be very peachy keen.

[@jgkidd82]

I wanted to add I can't drink alcohol due to my psych meds but I would try that non alcoholic drink just out of curiosity.

[@miracostaresort]

If CommuniCore Hall was a hotel

[@Tara321-r3l]

No way, not even close. This blows anything Disney value out of the water.

[@UPNT]

I wouldn’t go that far…

Tom busting out the Norwegian storm jacket. It’s a bueatiful hotel. Makes me sad for the GSC.

Tossed salad means something totally different where i am from

[@Courtesy-flush8888]

Overall, which property do you like better island Tower, or still nova

[@UPNT]

That’s a little unfair as one as built at a 50 year old classic hotel and the other built on a dirt patch lol. Rooms are way nicer at Poly, exterior nicer here (which does little for you as a guest)

[@Ziemziems]

Tom your teeth are looking very nice !!

[@chrisvanderloop]

Rehire Annie

[@karebear3152]

yes eggs are vegetarian. chickens lay eggs regularly, regardless of if a rooster is around or not. They're more likely to be unfertilized than fertilized so they're not considered a direct product, but like milk, a by product that doesn't harm the animal to obtain.

[@christinemartin5095]

That Chicken Parm sandwich looked pathetic. I could tell it was going to be terrible.

[@tiffanydeangelo8575]

A lot of people are vegan. They need to get with it and do much better. There are so many easy options these days for vegan proteins.

[@loristevens5876]

I never seen some so blah lol
