I have -- you take a ``space ship'' ride to the restuarant, and its all dark and whirly lights and aliens inside. Fun for kids, but the food is below mediocre, on the scale of pizza from a microwave.

Even for kids you can do much better - there have been several complaints of unclenliness - besides how awful the food is. Ellen's Stardus Diner has reasonable diner food (so kids should find something to eat) and the singing wait staff provide the entertainment. then you can take the kids to an arcade if you want.

Great for kids especially boys aged 9/10/11 that are Trekkies/ Star Wars/Space enthusiasts. Staff will pose for photos with the kids. Food below par but kids enjoy it. Recommend sharing a pizza and moving on quickly for dessert elsewhere!

Kids loved it.

Skip it. My kids weren't that impressed, and you can do much better.

The worst meal I've ever had in my life. No other restaurant is even close. My freinds and I still joke about it (took a friend's child there and even he wouldn't eat the food).
