Universal, scored the same way as Disney.

This hub is for Universal Orlando the way the Disney hub is for the parks: a trip recap for the day, then a review for each restaurant we actually try. Knup scores are out of 10. The first pages are a solo Saturday at CityWalk — the Traitors bars at Universal's Great Movie Escape, and lunch at Fat One's.

Universal CityWalk Traitors Bars Day Trip

7.2/10

Solo CityWalk walk-through for the Traitors bars — closed at lunchtime, but the set pieces, Category 10 news and a footlong from Fat One's made it worth the steps. Knup 7.2.

7.5/10

Joey Fatone's CityWalk hot dog stand — The Fat One footlong was juicy, loaded and fast. About as high as a hot dog goes here. Knup 7.5.
