T-REX Opens at Downtown Disney
October 16, 2008
One nice thing they added — things to occupy the kids while you wait for a table. They’re not taking reservations until January. Just outside the shop is a fossil dig site, where kids use paintbrushes to uncover dinosaur fossils. Inside, the shop is filled with prehistoric-inspired toys and stuffed animals. Best of all, in the back is a “Build-a-Dino” store by the “Build-a-Bear” people.
An aquarium in the bar (look up to see the enormous, undulating octopus and the colorful jellyfish lights), huge prehistoric insects, and dinosaurs of all types that move and roar captivated our kids (6 and 1 years old). An open kitchen with open flames added drama next to our table, and adjacent was an ice age dining room, lit up blue by a ceiling and walls of ice crystals.
