One of the two sit down restaurants at MIRF, Dragon's Den is located near the entrance just behind the maypole. It’s $16 for a
plate and drink.
Also available at each restaurant is a kiosk with mixed
drinks. You can walk up to the kiosk to order a drink, but they are available
to restaurant diners as well. However, the boozy drinks are NOT available as
part of the meal and you will need to order them separately. The rum beverages
seem to be a standard this year and they get a thumbs up from me, matey. They also offer a margarita and blackberry lemonade (spiked, I assume?).
The meals themselves are large and easily shareable between
kids or people with smaller appetites. The quality is also usually pretty good.
You’re not going to find anything super gourmet that blows you away, but you
should be able to get something that’s filling and pretty decent.
Let’s start with my favorite: the lobster mac & cheese.
This macaroni and cheese is pretty solid. The bits of
shredded lobster are a nice addition. This is usually my go-to when visiting this
restaurant.
Next we have the Guinness pot roast. This was advertised as
having mashed potatoes, but we got a plain baked potato on the bottom instead. It
was topped with chunks of pork roast, topped with fried crunchy onions. Corn
casserole was the side.
The pot roast itself was edible but nothing too special. Of
course, everything is helped by gravy, and there should have been more of that.
The corn casserole was pretty bland and the texture was off, like there was too
much flour added.
Finally, we tried the meatloaf. A generous portion of
meatloaf slathered with what is described as a “tangy” sauce, rested atop
garlic red skinned mashed potatoes. The sauce was good and there was plenty of
it. Again, corn casserole on the side.
Overall, the menu is pretty decent. The food tends to be fair to good and the portions are generous.
