Jessica, I like Backlot Express more than the Commissary. I did not like the Commissary at all.

Matt, I definitely am. I tried Studio Catering Co in January, but I didn't like it either. I got some kind of turkey panini, and it was super dry and bland. Maybe I need to eat more table service at the Studios. Or more cupcakes in place of meals.

Scott, I like the decor too. It's probably my favorite thing about the restaurant.

I just ate there last week. I had the grilled turkey and cheese. Aside from being uncut, which I found weird, the sandwich was pretty decent. I'd get it again.

I like the decor here. We sat in one of the first rooms with a bunch of marble bust props.

My favorite options at Backlot Express are the veggie sandwich and the southwest salad. They stand out above the other food.

Amanda, I think by now you're seeing that burgers at counter service restaurants are all the same (and that's not a good thing), so that's why I go for other options because I know the burgers are consistently disappointing.

Next time you're in town, we should try out Studio Catering Co. They have a great buffalo chicken sandwich!

I don't think I've ever eaten there. We usually end up at the Commissary because it's inside and with AC. Doesn't sound like I'm missing much.

Honestly, if you only have one day there, it's not worth the trip to Epcot. No matter which form of transportation you take, it'll be at least 15 or 20 minutes each way, and that's not worth the time. Backlot Express is good if you're just looking for a quick lunch. If it's hot, I'd avoid Studio Catering Co, and I'm not a very big fan of ABC Commissary. Those are the places I've tried, and I'd suggest Backlot Express as the best. Otherwise just grab something from a food cart and try to find a not-so-hot place to eat it.

I am having a hard time deciding on a counter service lunch at DHS for our trip in October. I had considered even park hopping to Epcot just to go eat but I am not fully sure. What do you think?
We are only going to have 1 day at DHS (it is a EMH Evening though) and I don't really want to miss out on anything...
