We had the pleasure of enjoying delicious and fresh Greek food from Mythos courtesy of a sales rep.
Other restaurants have usurped this #1 status in recent years, but Mythos is still a good place to go if you are looking for quality theme park food or hoping to celebrate a special occasion. It is definitely the closest thing to fine dining at Universal's Islands of Adventure. Don’t worry about dressing up, though; there is no dress code. Mythos Restaurant LocationMythos Restaurant is located in Lost Continent in. Look for the towering rock formations and waterfalls - you really can’t miss it. ThemingMythos is a term used to describe a body of mythology, and that theme is certainly evident in Mythos Restaurant. The restaurant's designer, Jordan Mozer, based the theme primarily on two stories: the epic of Perseus (one of the most celebrated heroes of Greek mythology) and the story of Bellerophon (a hero whose greatest feat was slaying the Chimera).The exterior walls are designed to look like ancient rocks.
Greek gods and heroes are carved into the exterior of the restaurant. Lavish waterfalls pour down the craggy rock face. There are also pools of water at the foundation.The interior is equally impressive. This cavernous space also looks like it was carved out of rock. Representations of the Chimera, water nymphs, and the three brother kings of the seas (Phorcys, Nereus, and Thamus) are present in the restaurant.The River Styx also runs through the middle of Mythos. In Greek mythology, this river served as the boundary between Earth and the Underworld (Hades).
Perseus crossed this river in his quest.The back of the restaurant has really tall windows that look out onto the interior lagoon of Islands of Adventure. From these windows, you get a good view of other areas of the park, including and the rest of Marvel Superhero Island. Mythos also has an outdoor patio with beautiful views of the park. Mythos Review and Food RecommendationsWe enjoy dining at Mythos Restaurant. The food here is a bit better than the food in many of the quick service restaurants in Islands of Adventure. The menu isn’t huge, but it does offer a nice variety of dishes. While the food is good, the setting is even better. The interior and exterior of this restaurant are simply stunning.
There is no place quite like it in the theme parks. Guests frequently stop to stare at Mythos as they are walking though Lost Continent. We think that the front of Mythos is one of the best in the park.If you don’t want to have a meal here, you should at least visit for drinks, an appetizer, or a dessert. This will give you a chance to walk around the inside of the restaurant and see the unique decor.
Before you leave, make sure you walk all the way around the outside of Mythos to get a good look at all of the carvings. When you're behind the restaurant, you'll have a great view of the park. Food Recommendations. We highly recommend the Spanakopita Dip, which is a savory blend of spinach, feta cheese, lemon and fresh herbs, served hot with fresh pita chips seasoned with za'atar spice, with fresh cucumber, tomato and olives. This is a very tasty and sharable appetizer. It could also work as a small meal for one person.
If you like sandwiches, The Pressed Porchetta Panini is a good choice. This sandwich comes with Italian roast pork, apple butter, grilled red onion, fontina cheese, arugula and grain mustard. There isn’t a lot of meat on the sandwich, but the flavors blend nicely. The Traditional Hamburger at Mythos is a safe choice for people who want something simple. This burger recently made the list for our. Seating RecommendationsMythos Restaurant does not have a bad seat, but our favorite seats are located near the back of the restaurant by the tall windows that overlook the park. When we make our reservations online, we request 'seats next to the window with a view of the park' in the reservation notes.
We also like to make our reservations for 11:00 a.m., which is when the restaurant typically opens; this increases our chances of getting the seats we want. The outdoor patio behind the restaurant is also a nice place to sit and get a good view if the weather is good. Nearby Attractions in Lost ContinentAttractions in Lost Continent near Mythos include:.
